Yes, JAPAN and of course a photo of Daibutsu the Big Buddha in Kamakura (鎌倉市 Kamakura-shi) on the front cover. All tunes are in a traditional style, Japanese instrumentations. Composed by the German Victor Cavini (a pseudonym used by Gerhard Trede for Library Music compositions). One tune, the brilliant PICTURES OF JAPAN XIV, is towering on this album. It’s totally different in a good way because it combines the more traditional Japanese appearing instruments like Koto or Bamboo Shakuhachi with some funky drums, groovy electric bass and psychedelic fuzz guitar.
