JAPAN
Gentlemen Take Polaroids
1980 Canada pressing
MY favorite Japan album.
25 years ago, while living & working in NYC, THIS was in heavy rotation with albums by Mogwai and Radiohead;
a steady diet of this, Kid A, and Come On Die Young, over and over again, over a period of about three months.
Long subway rides from Astoria and Brooklyn to my job in Times Square, to assure that I’d be calm upon arrival.
