Far East New Rock Invention 1969-1975 gathers the free, innovative, and deeply experimental sounds created by Japanese musicians whose passion rivaled their British and American counterparts. As the mid-60s Group Sounds boom faded, forward-thinking artists like Yuya Uchida and The Flowers, who would evolve into the internationally known Flower Travellin' Band, fought to forge a distinctly Japanese form of rock, drawing on psychedelia, hard rock, and the emerging folk underground. Record companies responded by launching dedicated rock and folk labels, and many of these forward-looking titles have since become prized classics on the rare groove scene. More than fifty years later, the music still hits with the same surprise and impact it did on release. A 180G label compilation, essential for international rock crate diggers.
