Masayuki Yamamoto - Time Bokan Yattaman OST
(Victor JBX-182)

[Dollarhyde]

@elifunk Did you grab this from discogs recently, If so you beat me to it ;D

I love the artstyle to all these Time-Bokan related shows. I have a few but they are all, bar one or two songs, vocal comedy tracks or drama, but I love the funky glam disco music underneath. Even if the music is 'so so' the artwork is great! so damn psychedelic. I've heard stories that Halluconogenic Mushrooms were a big thing in Japan throughout the 70's, and for shows like this it would explain a lot. Also I'm sure Shigeru Miyamoto of Super Mario fame took inspiration from this series.

i've submitted that release years ago on discogs, so i'm innocent ahah.
soon i'll add another time bokan LP on discogs, fortunately full bgm & recommended!

in my top 10 ever.
kindaichi's world is absolutely the kind of music I love most.
i collected all 12 records about this serie and this one got the most beautiful cover art.

Some solid cop show funky grooves on this one. Also the 45 accompanying this LP has a killer b side, which I think is not included on the LP.

Masayuki Yamamoto - Time Bokan Series Encyclopedia
(victor JBX-217-218)

[Dollarhyde]

Aah, I am not clued up on Itadakiman.

All I really know is Time Bokan OG, Zenderman and Yatterman. ;D
My Time Bokan stuff. I got most of these in a lot with some other LPs. This is really about the artwork, these records are predominantly Drama and goofy vocal tracks.

[ScoJo]

Oh my lord... this artwork is killing me. I really don't give a heck what they sound like! Amazing... (why is Wacky Races featured in the centre spread of the last one?)

[elifunk]

@Dollarhyde wow, awesome collection and with obi! it's really a shame they are all drama\vocal.
unfortunately too many records are like this, several anime don't have BGM on vinyl.
I always try to avoid them but sometime i fall back on these beautiful covers.

Lots of wacky contraptions in these crazy series. Here are a few clips. You can see why one would be hankering for an isolated background score to these also (BGM)




@elifunk so true about the lack of BGM for some series, but I guess we still got an insanely large amount of BGM releases from Japan overall ;)

[Dollarhyde]

Joe Hisaishi, Laputa Image Album
25AGL-3024
The weakest of the Laputa LP's imo the OST and Symphonic Suite are much better listens. But still this one has its moments. Awesome gatefold as is the OST.

@Dollarhyde i agree 100%. this lp is the real gem.. top notch! and that cover is just as perfect as the music

[elifunk]

@Dollarhyde i know the devil exists on dvd but probably only in japanese language i suppose.
