"Tenkujin" — the crowning achievement of Fumio Miyashita's cosmos, a New Age-drenched blend of Eastern-thought oriental meditation, electronic music and psych rock. Their third and final album, from 1977. Digitally remastered CD reissue, limited to 1,000 numbered copies.
With lyrics themed around the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, the folk-tale imagery of a weeping, lyrical cosmic philosophy steeped in Japanese poetic exoticism is second to none. Folky, Pink Floyd-like blues rock grooves exquisitely with cosmic, expansive synthesizer effects straight out of the Klaus Schulze lineage. The most clean and neatly arranged of all their albums. Six tracks in all. The culmination of it all.
