Takeshi Inomata & Sound Limited – Innocent Cannon

Description

The album’s a great one from Japanese groove pioneer Takeshi Inomata and it’s almost a fusion of earlier 60s funky band jazz with some of the more tripped-out modes of the jazz rock era. Vamping rhythms and full-on organs are undercut by wiggy guitar parts and soaring organ lines all augmented by spoken Japanese passages, sound effects, and production styles that abstract out some instruments into very unusual modes. Nothing innocent about this record because the groove is hard and heavy, wild and trippy a really heady brew of funky jazz and more psychedelic influences all recorded with some weird sounds in the background too! – Jazz Messengers
