Pizzicato Five - On Her Majesty's Request [32DH 5279 JPN 1989 FLAC]
As part of my drive to fill your head with the weird and wonderful, here is the third long player from Japanese Shibuya-kei popsters, Pizzicato Five. Imagine a world full of lounge meets Zappa meets synthpop meets John Barry. Yes folks it has come to this!

ReplyDeleteGreat album!
ReplyDeleteI was a little surprised at the almost complete lack of female vocals, probably because I am more familiar with their mid-to-late-nineties output on the Matador label, but it is in no way any kind of deal-breaker.
It's such a feel-good album that I wonder if it has deceptively dark lyrics.
original uncensored version, thanks!
ReplyDeleteThere's a censored version? What was the supposedly objectionable material?
ReplyDeleteFrom Discogs: "The African Queen" contained a sample of The Rolling Stones "Sympathy for the Devil," and was left off the reissue for rights issues. "Her Majesty Au Go-Go" also has many samples that were not cleared.
