Flower Travellin’ Band are an esoteric Japanese psychedelic rock/ heavy metal outfit that was first active in the late 1960s and early 1970s, consisting of Akira “Joe” Yamanaka (vocals), Hideki Ishima (guitar), Joji “George” Wada (drums) and Jun Kozuki (bass). As of January 12th, 2008 they have officially reunited. The band was initially organized by Japanese entertainer and entrepreneur Yuya Uchida as “The Flowers,” a cover band, and featured two vocalists - male vocalist Yuya Uchida, and female vocalist Remi Aso, who was touted as the Japanese version of Janis Joplin. Their first album consisted of covers of Western pop songs. It was primarily notable for the fact that all of the band members appeared nude on the cover, including Aso, which was considered scandalous at the time. Anyway, really fun stuff and wild too greatly recommended for the fans of psych rock. Ahead of its time tbh.
