Ching-Dong Tsushin-Sha are an excellent chin-dong group from Osaka- the brass band and percussion street music orginally used as a form of advertising. Aside to the saxes, clarinets and ching-dong drum, they mix in erhu (Chinese violin) and electric guitar. Ching-dong groups have always played the hits of the day, and this album includes a version of the Boom's pop samba classic Kaze ni Naritai, and Seiko Matsuda's Akai Sweet Pea and an amazing version of Santana's Black Magic Woman. 21 tracks.
