An album released in 1978 by Masahiko Togashi, a great Japanese drummer and percussionist who continued his musical activities despite being paralyzed from the waist down, developing his unique playing style. The trio features Shozo Nakagawa (a-f, as) and Keiki Midorikawa (b). The recording took place after Togashi and Nakagawa guest appeared at Midorikawa's monthly live performance in Shibuya, Tokyo, in 1976. The album showcases Togashi's quintessential free-form percussion performances, complemented by Nakagawa's lead and Midorikawa's bass. A2 is highly recommended, with its organic percussion beats, minimal bass, and ethereal ethnic melody played on the alto flute.
