Finally available on CD, this pioneering compilation gathers a dozen of the best bands in the ‘Group Sounds’ movement that swept Japan in the 1960s. Featuring plenty of frantic songs with wild guitar and intense vocals, it’s proof that rock and roll was truly an international language, and includes early material by musicians who went on to perform with legendary bands such as the Flower Travellin’ Band, Speed, Glue & Shinki, Les Rallizes Denudes and Foodbrain. It’s presented here complete with a full-colour booklet and detailed background notes.
