  1. Definitely promises more than it delivers....nice cover, well half cover and the last two tracks have a couple of OKish breaks.

    Heard a couple of other Japanese 'disco' albums from the late seventies and was not impressed* by them to be honest..thank god YMO & Vanity Records came along when they did!
    *thats not to say the Japanese cannot cut it on the dancefloor, just check out Haruomi Hosno original version of "Cosmic Surfin'" (far better than the YMO version and far funkier in a "cosmic" sense).

    Anyway, thanks for the sharing, most appreciated.
