Yamasuki - Kono Samourai

Yamasuki - Le Monde Fabuleux Des Yamasuki (1971)

Yamasuki - Kono Samourai (France, 1971)



Taken from Discogs.com

Le Monde Fabuleux Des Yamasuki.

The 1971 concept album was the brainchild of French pop composers Jean Kluger and Daniel Vangarde, who learnt Japanese before recording began and even enlisted the aid of a renowned black-belt Judo master to introduce the tracks, which were all sung in Japanese by a school choir.
The result is theatrical, epic, freaky and exotic pseudo-Japanese pop that absolutely defies categorisation.

September 70 - Was a Time...

Was a Time... by pixel_face

When we wrote 'Was a Time' it was supposed to be a remix of a song by some local band that I've forgotten the name of.

It turned out that we only used the actual line 'There was a time' from the original song, the rest was really just our own track. The drums were sampled from 'Archangel's Thunderbird' by Amon Duul with some samples from the cult movie 'Rat Pfink a Boo Boo' and the Gregory Peck narrated tribute to JFK 'Years of Lightning, Day of Drums'.

The strings were from 'Poverty Street' by David McWilliams who, as Graeme pointed out, has quite a lot of extremely sampleable intros.
