It's been a long time since Musea has released anything from the 1970s. Here we don't have a reissue, but a very intriguing looking ...

Speaking of keyboard/drum duo albums, one that should definitely be on the wishlist is the debut album by Shuichi "Ponta" Murakami from 1976. It's a great mixture of jazz-rock and more abstract electronic/percussion stuff featuring Jun Fukamachi. One of my faves, actually. Also, that makes me realize that Fukamachi's debut LP from '75 (also featuring Murakami) should probably be on the list as well. It's funkier and less intense than "Rokuyu" but still quite good. Plus, it features a really long fusion jam called "Bamboo Bong". Can't go wrong with that! Interestingly, both of these LPs were released by Toshiba EMI as part of their "Pro-Use" series and are each simply entitled "Introducing".
Thanks Rob for the suggestions. I'll have to check them both out. There's so much from Japan left to be discovered I think. And yes, "Bamboo Bong" does indeed sound promising!
