Reissue of this album of recordings from the 80s, first issued by Marquee in Japan. "Lo Pop is truly a radical departure from the main body of his ultra-galactic guitar works. Steeped in a homemade brew of off-kilter folk pop, Lo Pop is endearingly naive to the end. Featuring performances by underground 'stars' Reira & Asuka, plus strange takes on two traditional Japanese tunes, this will appeal to fans who succumbed to the charms of early Shonen Knife, the pop theatricality of the Red Krayola, the clandestine spell of Beat Happening...and maybe even the Shaggs."
