Theatrical troupe led by Tenjo Sajiki that would become known as J.A. Caesar. This is their last(i think) LP.
Part of julian cope review:
Tokyo Kid Brothers was a visionary dance troupe full of actors, musicians, strategists and self-proclaimed shamen. Legendary shouter Kan Mikami had journeyed south from the same part of Northern Japan as Japanese theatre's underground legend Shuji Terayama. In the mid-60s, they had both developed within and moved away from the scene which spawned them to create their very own thing. Yutaka Higashi had come to join them after dropping out of Tokyo's Waseda University. Then, in 1968, his own vision prompted him to split and form Tokyo Kid Brothers, a rock'n'roll dance and theatre troupe who looked like an ingrown hippy take on West Side Story.
Tokyo Kid Brothers didn't make enough records to secure more than a stowaway's free ride in the luggage hold of rock'n'roll history, but their vicious combination of fuzzbuster guitar, Psychedelic Underground-period Amon Duul female chorale, yatter-natter 'tween song chatter, and smart alliances with other Japanese underground heroes will, in the long term, guarantee them more real longevity than this first review can even begin to imagine.
They shouldn't be judged on their records alone because they were much more than that. But in the absence of visual evidence, they must be. So it's to their credit that Tokyo Kid Brothers still sounds like essential listening.
