Heretic Masumi Hara's 1982 debut album "Imagination Tsushin" is a masterpiece that takes you on a walk through a labyrinth of imagination. All 10 tracks, including the surreal "Aoi Yoru," the aberrant synth-minimal "Abuku," the infinite round dance of "Camera," and her signature song "Tenshi ni Sokkuri," radiate a clear madness and creativity. With Yuji Kawashima (BaNaNa) and Ra participating, this is a legendary album that continues to foretell the future of pop music.
