Recorded in Tokyo during 1968-1970 by Alan Merrill, the first domestic market foreign pop star in Japan. The sounds on this album very much reflect the international popular music of that era, specifically British rock and pop.
Bio / Background
This album was written and recorded in 1968-70, and released in 1971.
It was the first album by Alan Merrill to feature entirely his own compositions, singing all and playing (almost all) the parts himself.
Released on Denon-Columbia Records in Japan exclusively (and produced by Miki Curtis), the album did very well, even though all the songs were in the English language. A very unusual thing in Japan at the time.
Alan Merrill was the first successful foreigner in Japan's domestic rock market in the country's history, having hit records in the Japanese language, touring, modeling, and hosting TV shows in the late 1960s and early 70s. He was a pioneer, performing and touring with the top Japanese bands of the day, The Tigers, Tempters, The Spiders, and Golden Cups, the only foreigner in the "Group Sounds" scene.
In fact, some of the players on this album making cameo appearances were top stars of the Group Sounds era.
