This authorized issue of fantastic CD is same of well-known
bootleg 2CD (same title). This performance is best period of
TMT in early 70's. Hard board paper cover. This sprawling
seventies psych drone unit led by Fluxus legend Takehisa
Kosugi, were crafting gorgeous abstract drone drenched
ambience long before most of the current crop of dronesters
were even born. This early trio recording by this highly-
revered Japanese psychedelic outfit is essentially a two-hour
-long improvisation spread over two CDs. Prepared strings,
vocal chants, electronics and overtones hover through and
beyond souls, living and past.
