AFTER DINNER, S/T + Editions (1983 / 1990, Japanese "avant-folk")


Reading Julian Cope's "JapRock Sampler", it's a japanese week for me. You should read it, it's an exciting story of the japanese underground from the late 60s to the early 80s.
Here is the 1st album by cult underground band from the 80s AFTER DINNER, whose female singer is particularly known for her talented voice. Hard to describe, it's a weird folk music mixed with theatrical influences and played in a rather dadaist way.
In addition to the 9 tracks of the album, the CD offers 9 tracks recorded live between 1986 and 1990 and that curiously may be more accessible for the newcomers.
Download this album here.
(and please report when the MassMirror links don't work).

If "Paradise of Replica / Paradise of Remixes" is anything to go by, it should be a brilliant work. Cheers!
