about

My early group Baroque Bordello’s first release with a normal instrumental line-up (guitar, bass, keyboard, drums, etc.). However, since we still had no way of knowing (and more importantly, any need to know) musical theory or how to play our instruments in a normal way, we played in a style completely of our own devising. In particular, because we had no idea about the proper tuning for guitar and bass, we devised our own tunings. It would be another four years before we leaned about regular tuning.
We played our first live gig around this time. We plugged straight into the amp had been provided and proceeded to improvised at maximum volume for just under an hour. Finally the amps caught fire and the other bands were unable to play - needless to say, our reception from the audience and promoter was not the most favorable! - Kawabata Makoto (2002)

The original cassette tape was released only a few copies on Kawabata's R.E.P. (Revolutionary Extrication Project) in 1980, then re-issued on a 10 CDR box set entitled “Makoto Kawabata early works 1978-1981” in 2000. (Afterward, this 10 CDR box was changed to the 11 CDR + 1CD box.) It was reissued on vinyl by Italian QBICO Records in 2003.
