melting glass box

Melting glass box is a studio album of Nishiokai Takashi, Itsutsu No Akai Fusen (guitar, percussion and vocals), Tetsuo Saito (vocals, percussion), Kazuhiko Kato (guitar), Kazuo Takeda ex-Blues Creation (guitar), Haruomi Hosono ex-Apryl Fool (bass) and Takasuke Kida ex-Jacks (percussion, wind instruments).

Japanese acid folk rock psych with mind-blowing electric guitar leads and lots of trippy effects thrown in! This album was originally released on URC in Japan in 1970. Nishiokai Takashi went on to release several solo albums.

Not in Julian Cope's Japrocksampler top 50, however if you like Itsutsu No Akai Fusen's "Flight" album (number 47) then you will love this one.
