Kimio Mizutani -- electric & folk guitars Masahiko Satoh - Hammond organ, piano, Moog Synthesizer Hiromasa Suzuki - electric piano Hiro Yanagida -- Hammond organ Kayoko Isshu -- scat vocals Masaoki Terakawa - bass Hideaki Takebe -- bass Takeshi Inomata -- drums + Toyama String Quartet Etoh Wood Quartet Although essentially a session guitarist, Jun 'Kimio' Mizutani is best known for his contributions to such classic early '70s albums as LOVE WILL MAKE A BETTER YOU by Love Live Life +1, the self-titled Uganda LP and People's BUDDHA MEETS ROCK. Along the way, the ex-Out Cast member also released one star-studded LP of his own in A PATH THROUGH HAZE. Taking his lead from Masahiko Satoh's LP of the same name, Mizutani delivered a record of Zappa-styled instrumentals, accompanioed by Satoh himself and Foodbrain's Hiro Yanagida. The LP was all recorded in a single monster session, in the huge Nippon Gramophon No. 1 Studio, on June 7th 1971, and featured the Toyama String Quartet and Etoh Wood Quartet to further explore the Zappa-meets-jazz consciousness that was so prevalent at the time. Indeed, the record comes across like an album by Glenn Phillips or even something akin to John McLaughlin's DEVOTION, though without the supreme euphoria achieved on the latter. Besides Mizutani's rendition of Satoh's epic title track, the other pieces were 'Sail In The Sky', 'Turning Point', 'Tell Me What You Saw', 'One For Janis', 'Sabbath Day's Sable', 'A Bottle Of Codeine' and 'Way Out'.
