Himiko Kikuchi was already one of Japan's finest keyboardists when Flying Beagle arrived in 1987, and it remains the most sought-after record in her catalog. Fusion at its brightest and most playful, it runs on electric piano and synth lines that skip rather than sprawl, backed by a rhythm section that keeps everything light on its feet. "Look Your Back!" is the calling card, but the whole record moves with the same easy confidence, which is why the original has spent years changing hands at collector money. This LITA exclusive variant presses it on 180 gram translucent yellow vinyl.
