Ché-SHIZU – 瞬きの星 (Glimmering Star) 4

Easily my favorite Ché-SHIZU album, 瞬きの星 (Matataki No Hoshi) Glimmering Star was released in a shamelessly limited run (at about 250) on Aleutian Retto then reissued on Alchemy Records a few years back. This album floats, on some strange low hanging, untouchable clouds. A must hear.

Thanks to Andrew Scott for passing this one along. If it is what it says it is, then it’s a real gem. The liners in part read:

“I’d rather not disclose how these recordings came into my hands, but I am certain they are what they are labeled to be and that they’re rare documents of the Dream Syndicate’s early work together….. ”
