An album released in 1980 by Group Dada, an oriental fusion unit that brought together traditional Japanese music performers—including Naritoshi Tosha, founder of the Tohryu Nigenkoto school, who in 1986 succeeded the name of the sixth Tosha Rosetsu and became the third-generation head of the school—with session musicians. The record is notable for its inventive approach, blending performances on traditional Japanese classical instruments with elements of jazz and disco. Highlights include the percussive oriental fusion opener A1, which could be described as a Japanese take on Dinosaur L’s “Go Bang.”
