Osamu Kitajima - The Early Years - 5 x LP Box Set Vinyl - Japanese Prog Psychedelic Rock Benzaiten

Osamu Kitajima was born in Chigasaki, Japan on February 3rd1949 and studied classical guitar and piano already in his childhood days.Later on in the 1960s, when Beat and Rock music became the hot stuff in thepopular music circuit, he joined his cousin’s band “The Launchers” with hisbrother, before graduating from university. Osamu’s cousin, Y?z? Kayama, is afamous Japanese film actor and musician. In 1971, when Osamu was already a successfulcomposer of TV advertising jingles, he moved to England for a year anddeveloped an obsession for British Rock music, especially in the Psychedelicfield. The Beatles, The Bee Gees, Jimi Hendrix, Deep Purple and The Zombiesbecame his major influences and inspired him to start a solo career under thename JUSTIN HEATHCLIFF, which he adopted for it’s typical English sound. His1971 eponymous album was a typical Pop Psyche effort for it’s time, but notlong after he returned home to Japan, Osamu abandoned the English sounding nameand further on merged Western Progressive and Electronic music with JapaneseFolk sounds.
