Reissue, originally released on Vertigo in 1971. Japanese country rock act Gypsy Blood must be heard to be believed. Their sole LP showed the group simply bursting with talent, Kiyoshi Hayami's mandolin exceptional and the masterful soft-rock production courtesy of Miki Curtis; drummer Eiichi Tsukasa had earlier been in the Helpful Soul, organist Katsuo Ohno had been in the Spiders, and guitarist/vocalist Hiroaki Nakamura later played in Buzz with future YMO member Yukihiro Takahashi, while none other than Alan Merrill of "I Love Rock n' Roll" fame completes the picture on piano. A beautiful album, and a very rare beast! Licensed from BMG. Exact repro of the original with four bonus tracks.
