Early-'70s Japanese Psych/Blues Rock on Vinyl LP!
Sourced from the 2017 96kHz/24-bit Master!
Includes Japanese OBI Strip!

Released in 1971. After the dissolution of Food Brain, a trio rock band, former members Shinki Chen (guitar), Masayoshi Kabe (bass), and Joey Smith (drums, vocals) started their own group, Speed, Glue & Shinki. The band was named by Mickey Curtis. The band's bluesy guitar, undulating bass, and heavy drums are reminiscent of Led Zeppelin, reigning as Japan's first and foremost heavy rock album. This analog version uses a 96kHz/24-bit sound source mastered in 2017. The jacket is a single jacket with Rock Age OBI.

...a primitive, deranged...mutation of acid blues and proto-metal, akin to the Bloomfield/Kooper/Stills Super Session crashing headlong into earliest Zeppelin and Sabbath records, as performed by musicians whose instrumental chops were actually beyond reproach...don't be fooled by the innocent trio of schoolgirls gracing Eve's dust jacket; Speed, Glue & Shinki provided one of the most harrowing glimpses into rock & roll's heart of darkness with this lo-fi masterpiece.
-Eduardo Rivadavia, AllMusic.com, 5/5 stars
