Description

Sai Yoshiko: "Taiji no Yume" (Blow Up - LX-7021-A) (Record: Excellent/ Jacket: Excellent). Comes with 4-paged insert. Obi is missing. Released on September 25th, 1977, "Taiji no Yume" of "Dream of a Fetus" was Sai Yoshiko's third recorded album, following Miko which I had up for sale during the previous auction. As was the case with her first album, "Taiji no Yume" was also arranged by Ono Yuji who attributes a more supportive aspect to the Sai Yoshiko outer worldly realms. This record was heavily inspired by the pre-war odd ball and ghostly neuro-surgeon-doctor-writer Yume No Kyusaku, hence the strange atmosphere this disc abides in. Nevertheless the voyage into the mental state of being this disc ventures into fits perfectly with Sai's acid folky approach and dreamy female vocalizations. Quite dark in overall texture. At the time of this recording, she was merely 24 years old. A real stunning female acid folk masterpiece with well balanced psychy touches. Totally obscure, much in demand by Japanese psych heads and rather hard to track down. One of Sai Yoshiko's biggest fans is Jojo Hiroshige from Hijokaidan and Alchemy records, who eventually, 25 years after she recorded this stunning album, dove in the studio with her for the "Crimson Voyage" CD (Alchemy Rec) on which she merely attributed some sighs and moans. This album is really a stunner and a must for people into some more advanced Japanese Underground historical recordings. Highest recommendation and utterly beautiful. No reserve price on this one since the disc is excellent (not mint due to some hairlines) and the missing obi. But apart from that a beautiful copy.
