Back with Akira Ishikawa and 1971's Power Rock With Drums





Here's something that ought to be very popular for the readers, many of whom love the Japanese material.

I covered him extensively here, before, with 7 albums. There you can read the transplanted bio from discogs.   It is a complex discography for any would-be fan given that he recorded with so many bands with similar names or slight alterations, so the total number of releases you'd have to listen to is enormous.  Here for example in this record from 1971 he is with Freedom Unity and note that also present in this group is the absolutely wonderful and well-loved Hiromasa Suzuki.  The style is typically the same funk-fusion with a lot of manic drumming of course.

A more progressive or original track in this case augmented with orchestration appears here and there, as in the track A2:
