Hozan Yamamoto - Akuma Ga Kitarite Fue Wo Fuku - LP

Japanese Soundtrack Reissue — 'Devil's Flute' (1979)

A reissue from Mr Bongo of a cult work by Hozan Yamamoto, the legendary Japanese jazz flautist recognized as a "living national treasure." This is the original soundtrack to Kôsei Saitô's 1979 mystery film 'Devil's Flute' (Akuma Ga Kitarite Fue Wo Fuku), composed with keyboardist/producer Yu Imai. The result is a quirky, cosmic masterpiece that roams from lush atmospheric cues to disco and funk grooves, experimental nuggets and neo-classical passages — showing the further depths of this remarkable musician's talents.
