JOJI HIROTA-THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE, LP, 1981, JAPAN

Half whirligig spectacular, half milky unctuousness, this was the second fusion outing under his own steam for hard charging drummer Hirota, whose first recording under the name George Hirota I'll be posting shortly. Here, dizzyingly octopoidal essays in fusionoid intensity surge forth on riptides of synth spray in a mode not far removed from Ponta Murikami only to fall into narcoleptic Hallmark card pastures of becalmed new age drippiness, resulting in a very schizophrenic trip albeit one with some serious high water marks.

    Thanks, sounds very interesting. Hope the trip won't be too far out! I have a fragile mind.

    Peace & Love

    I like it, thanks for yet more Japanese music I haven't heard before! One track is a bit too cheesy (track 5), but that didn't put me off.

    regards,
    Chris

    anonymous-or folks could just get it on Mutant Sounds, since I already posted it a while back.
