A valuable live album that captures the passion of early Skapara, the band that pioneered ska in Japan.
This work is a recording of a live performance by Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra at Ebisu Guilty in 1990, and is an important album that captures the original energy of early Ska Paradise, which fused a variety of musical elements such as jazz, Latin, and rock into ska.
This live album conveys the energy of early Skapara, conveying the heat of the stage as it was. The power of the well-coordinated horn section, the driving force of the rhythm section, and the wildness that only a live performance can have come together to vividly capture the process of their rise to the center of the Japanese ska scene. Signature songs such as "Skapara's Theme" and "Monster Rock" stand out for their clever arrangements and high level of performance technique, creating a sense of realism that even makes you feel a sense of unity with the audience, even though it is a recording. This is an album that allows you to fully enjoy the charm of early Skapara, who freely incorporated elements of Latin, jazz, and rock and sublimated them into their own unique ska.
