¡Wataru Takada
Description
[Machine Translation] This is Wataru Takada's second album following the split album with Five Red Balloons, and his first solo album! It was recorded under the direction of Takashi Nishioka in 1969, when Wataru Takada left Tokyo in the midst of the 70th Security Treaty and moved to Kyoto. The songs on this album are a refreshing change from the poisonous protest folk of the previous albums, and are simple songs that focus on one's own inner self. He sings slowly and quietly with a single guitar, interspersing his storytelling with a conversation with a girl. This album is filled with the essential charm of Wataru Takada as a folk singer. It is also valuable in that most of the lyrics on the album are written by Takada himself. After the first half of the album, which includes "Boro Boro Boro," a song about the trivial emotions of daily life, and the nostalgic "Train Passing Through the Countryside," a song full of fairy tales, the second half continues with "Zenni ga nakareta ya" and "Miner's Prayer," a number that depicts the sorrows of the working class. The album closes with "I Ain't Got No Home," a Japanese translation of Woody Guthrie's "I Ain't Got No Home. The cover illustration by his brother, Pang Takada, who is also an artist, is also attractive. Long-awaited reissue with 6 bonus tracks! Includes commentary and paper jacket.
