I was familiar with most of the bands in JRS before it came out.
Faves include FLower Travellin Band, Far East Family Band, JA Caesar, Speed, Glue & Shinki, Blues Creation and Les Rallizes.
Special mention to People/Buddha Meets Rock, Takehisa Kosugi (whose Catch Wave is glorious drone), Brast Burn's Debon and everything from Taj Majal Travellers.
Still unable to track down anything by East Bionic Symphonia...
Oh, the Akira Ishikawa & Count Buffalos Uganda album is quite cool too!
Karuna Khyal's Alomoni 1985 was somewhat disappointing... as was Gedo.
Still searching for some Tokyo Kid Brothers...


For Tokyo Kid Brothers start off with Throw Away the Books (Old Victor or P-Vine CD version) the more recent mini CD LP version they really messed up the mastering and the album totally looses its impact.



This is very good to know! I've been close to ordering the mini-sleeve... now I'll hold off!!
