Vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. One of the central figures of the Kansai folk scene, Takada made his recording debut for URC on a split LP with Itsutsu No Akai Fuusen. His first solo full-length veered away from the venomous protest songs of his early work and took a more introspective stance, with simple yet poetic originals that displayed his rare softer side. Originally released in 1969.
