Slap Happy Humphrey - what a terrible name... But never judge a book by its cover...Fire in the Stereo inspired me - he posted some (very few) songs of this album.
Some description: "Slap Happy Humphrey was a supergroup made up of some of the biggest heavyweights in the Japanese psych scene: Jojo Hiroshige from Hijokaidan, Mineko Itakura of Angel’in Heavy Syrup and Hiroaki Fujiwara of Subvert Blaze.
The idea was simple yet incredibly effective – to record covers of obscure Japanese folk singer-songwriter Morita Doji’s music straightforward, but to add bursts of noise and distortion throughout." Well, so it is...
I call it: "Kinda weird mixture of 70s japanese folk with some tiny noise pimples." - Yes, that's right, too !
Here is the wonderful Slap Happy Humphrey (192Kbps) deconstruction from 1994.And here is some original Morita Doji stuff from 1976:
It is called "Mother Sky" (192 Kbps).
Enjoy these nice noises...

YAY!
I got Slap Happy Humphrey when it first came out and was completely confused by it, sold it, and regretted it ever after. Thanks!
