Sab ~ Japan ***REISSUED***


Crystallization. 1978 Vanity

***Reissued by Remodel in 2020

On the super rare Vanity label (Dada, Aunt Sally, etc...). Sab is primarily a tranquil electronic album including some sequencing, with solo segments for sitar and piano. I have to imagine that both Klaus Schulze and Popol Vuh were a huge influence here - and both were highly popular in Japan at this time.

Priority: none

I'm still a bit concerned about the legitimacy of this reissue. It's the only one on the label, but the markings are good. Considering it complete unless other data emerges.
