Masabumi Kikuchi, Susto, (Sony 1981)

Mike Peden wrote this over at the Kozmigroov site: "A wash of electronic jazz sound with chattering guitars and a solid bottom end which hits a groove and stays on it. Heavily influenced by Miles Davis electric projects but with better dynamics and more focused recording/production. Features a cast of all stars including Airto, Grossman, James Mason, Liebman, Hino, Aiyb Dieng -list goes on and on. Bought a copy about 18 years ago and still play it now-highly recommended." I concur. Here's personnel and track information from the Poomaniac discography:
