Amazing compilation album of Kawachi Ondo and Kawachi infulenced songs. Kawachi ondo from the Kansai region is one of Japan's most vibrant summer festivals, the music has always been moderniazed through the years and this CD shows how. From the 60s, 70s,80s and 90s, Kawachi ondo is combined with everything from a 70s disco groove to an 80s dub mix. Other songs are more orthodox Kawachi style and just as brilliant. Compiled from long deleted tapes and EPs.
