Description
The respected Japanese jazz drummer Akira Ishikawa was not messing around when he recorded the Uganda (Dawn of Rock) album with his band the Count Buffaloes. Originally released in 1972 on Toshiba Records, Akira Ishikawa takes us on a deep tripped-out journey. 'Uganda (Dawn of Rock)' is a fusion of progressive and psych rock with African percussion workouts, dergy- wah wah blues-funk, and jazzy sensibilities; with different genres morphing and uniting as they progress. A long way from his funk and afrobeat album 'Back To Rhythm', reissued on Mr Bongo in 2019, this record has a darker, deeper, abstract and experimental stoned tone with the listener being pulled into its vortex for the ride. This record doesn't pull any punches.

Highly sought-after underground Japanese rock rarity, originally released in 1972. Feat. Hideaki Chihara, Kimio Mizutani, Larry Sunaga and Takeru Muraoka. Available as Quadraphonic Boxset version & Tip-on Sleeve with OBI version.
