Mops-Psychedelic Sound In Japan(1968]Japan[with bonus]

---

"The Mops" were formed in 1966 under the influence by "The Ventures" and performed instrumentals only.In 1967 the band began to perform in Tokyo and its suburbs.At first the band played in beat style according to their contract.When contract ended the band went in psychedelic style.As loud it was said-"The Mops" called themselves as the first psychedelic band in Japan!In November 1967 the band released debut single with great song "Asamade Matenai",which had success in Japanese charts.Then this song will open their debut album. As for me-this song is most powerful in album. And the debut album was released in April 1968 and called "Psychedelic Sounds In Japan".Album mostly consists of songs covers on "The Animals","Jefferson Airplane","The Doors" and others' hits.Sound in album pure western.Vocal is slightly ruff,but all together is nice to listen!
