Brush!? were Shime Takahashi and Akira Asami (two thirds of Lost Aaraaff ... the same Akira from Gyaatees perhaps?) and Masayoshi Takanaka. It starts off with cinema organ music that can't stop me thinking of the intermission and ending music of Monty Python and the Holy Grail and becomes more curious from there. It's almost as though it can't make it's mind up what it is. This was originally released as an LP in 1971 on an unknown label. Maybe after the refusal to accept the Group Sounds orthodoxy, they fell on the polite side of the divide before going on to create much more adventurous music. The musical styles switch all over the place and this won't last too long in the memory but it still needs to be heard. But maybe only once ...
Brush!?
this seems to cover well the psychedelic trail, adding some daring pop experimentals along the way...thank you for feeling that it needed to be heard, i think they show brilliance in execution and going all over the place does good to an old head...regards...
ReplyDeleteThat cheers me up. I really didn't think that anybody would appreciate it but thought it needed to be out there ... just in case.
