The second release in the “Tropical Trilogy” in 1976 by Haruomi Hosono on the eve of the formation of YMO. Hosono had a longing for New Orleans sound, and has taken the local specialty gumbo-like hodgepodge of music and cooked it up into a pop style with his unique originality, which is what makes this album so appealing. The thrilling compositions, oriental exoticism, the forward-vision mix of music always surprise us. We find myself wanting to listen to this album as summer approaches. Original first edition red obi (with a crease in the middle), complete with booklet.
YMO結成前夜に細野晴臣が放った“トロピカル三部作”の二作目に当たる76年作。ニューオリンズに憧れを持っていたという細野がその地の名物料理ガンボのようなごった煮的音楽を、その独創性でポップに料理したとでもいうべき音楽性が魅力。何が飛び出すかわからないスリリングさ、東洋的エキゾチシズム、先見的なミックス感覚はいつ聞いても驚きをもたらせてくれます。夏が近づいてくると無性に聴きたくなるんです。オリジナル初版赤帯（真ん中に折れあり）、ブックレット完備。
