LP 350 numbered, heavy vinyl, laminated heavy GATEFOLD cover/ The Australian artist Paul Adolphus<br />
recorded the album in Kyoto/Japan. My first visit to Japan was in 1968 after living in India and Sri Lanka.<br />
My wife at the time arrived in Kyoto, and had our first child there. We really loved it. We returned to<br />
Sweden then went back to Kyoto and had our second child there. We lived in a two hundred year old farm<br />
house in a village outside Kyoto. It was a great scene at the time. Japanese artists, bohemians, and<br />
visiting foreigners making art music poetry etc. I was playing music with different people, then developed a<br />
musical relationship with Mitsu Harada. We did concerts and toured to other cities in japan together.<br />
Before leaving Japan Mitsu organised to record the album together. Mitsu's father was the grand master of<br />
a calligraphy school. In a large room in the school Mitsu set up mikes and a big stereo recorder consul.<br />
Most of the playing was by Mitsu and myself, an American friend played a little guitar and percussion to fill<br />
some holes. A group of friends sat around, so it was a bit of a living room concert feel. It was my material,<br />
Mitsu engineered as well as playing. I think there were 200 copies pressed, the covers were hand made,<br />
so it was released into the small arts community of Kyoto and Tokyo. Not long after the recording I<br />
travelled with the family to Australia, I had been away from here for a decade. I worked on a lot of projects<br />
here, composing for theatre and dance. I had a group called Living Music- an African drummer, Indian<br />
tabla, didjeridoo, winds etc. It was earlydays, not too many people were ready for world music. Incredible<br />
rare and sought after mellow folk album with beautiful songs and harmonies, like a Japanese version of<br />
EXTRADITION. From Japan, 1973.<br />

LP - If you live<br />
AK 215 LP UK<br />
Formed in 1970, Affinity broke the British jazz-rock mold by combining the hauntingly powerful vocals of<br />
Linda Hoyle (lauded by critics as the British Grace Slick) and the Hammond wizardry of Lynton Naiff<br />
(considered the rising star of jazz-pop in the style of Brian Auger) with convincing elements of psych and<br />
blues. This full length album is comprised of 8 tracks not found on their original LP (released on Vertigo in<br />
1970 and recently reissued by Akarma [AK 112]), including two tracks from their rare single ("Eli's Coming"<br />
/ "United States of Mind") and two of the three tracks ("I am the Walrus" and "You Met Your Match") that<br />
originally appeared in 1969 on a 10" EMI disk acetate.<br />
