*2024 stock* Gatefold cover. Here’s the fourth full LP release of this great Japanese rock band. The Long Trip is indeed a special one with three parts of the same song and other numbers all in a psychedelic and folk rock vein with great arrangements. Contrary to 'Kirikyogen' with strong taste of Flowers (Joe and Hideki), "Hikishio Michishio" should be Kuni's album, with full of his concept and attitude for progressive rock all over the world. 1971 was absolutely a dawn, golden year for Japanese progressive rock scene - Flower Travellin Band's "Satori", Speed Glue and Shinki's "Eve", Love Live Life + One, People, and this one were released one by one - and the most beautiful and most plaintive album of these all should be this happenings' last one
