Description:

The first solo album by Isato Nakagawa, a famous guitarist formerly known as "Five Red Balloons", released in 1973! The recording was done at the home studio of a man named Hack who lives in Osaka. This is a masterpiece with a relaxed, homemade feel that can only be achieved by recording at home. The album is full of great songs that reaffirm the appeal of Isato Nakagawa, not only as a guitarist but also as a singer-songwriter. His serene and gentle singing voice and his quiet acoustic guitar are superb. Backing him are Ritsu Murakami, Mitsuo Nagai, Koichi Matsuda, and others, in addition to Takashi Nishioka, who also serves as director. The album also includes "Sono Ki ni Narenara," the prototype for the famous song "Sono Ki ni Narenara," which is performed again on his substantial solo debut album "Tea Time," "Machi no Umi," filled with the playful and experimental spirit of a home recording, "Gokigenyo Tomobe-kun," in which he sings to his friend Masato Tomobe on fiddle, banjo, and kazoo, "Kikigenyo Tomobe-kun," a psychedelic Indian-flavored Indian song, "Sono Ki ni Narenara," which is a song about a man who is a friend of mine. The long-awaited reissue in paper jacket and high sound quality UHQCD, featuring the original "Mute", a psychedelic instrumental number with an Indian flavor, and 9 additional rare URC tracks (including previously unreleased live recordings)!
