Artist: MOPS
Title: Exit
Label: PHOENIX RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: ASH 3050CD
One of the innumerable bands to emerge from the post-Beatles Japanese tour of 1966 with Fab Four pretentions. The Mops were a Tokyo quintet led by drummer Mikiharu Suzuki who had cut his musical teeth in a Ventures-style combo in the previous spring. The line-up was augmented by the arrival of Suzuki's older brother, Hiromitu, a lead vocalist with an Eric Burdon obsession who added hugely to the band's fuzzy garage soul sound. Not just a Merseyside homage turn, The Mops were a dedicated family whose love of garage rock and the nascent psychedelia would help them to create some of the most urgently deranged and musically disruptive music of the entire Group Sounds-era. Exit, a live recording, features in its entirety the band's 1974 last concert at Nakano San Plaza. Features the original LP artwork and includes the original Japanese insert. Digitally remastered.
