The mysterious strains of a slide guitar apparently rooted in Hawaiian steel guitar (!). You might also hear a connection to the guitar music of Madagascar.
Rather than the rough sound of the local pressings, label owner Iguchi's mastering gives it a smooth, modern feel on the ear. (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh)
