180G 180GKINGLP01 - import LP in thick gatefold jacket 

It's time we gave more attention to Takeshi Terauchi, one of Japan's many guitar greats, whose chops have yet to receive enough recognition elsewhere in the world. Light In The Attic chart Terauchi's best reworkings over the years here, remarking on the artist's wondrous ability to tinker with famous traditional folk songs, in a time when the cultural fallout of World War II left many in the nation hungry for a new style, Rokabiri. Hypnotic filmic groovers such as 'Tsugaru Jongara Bushi' blend effortlessly with slick, bluesy and uptempo freakouts like 'Dannoura', making this an all-time great in the instrumental rock canon.
