Tokyo Mobile Music 1

Inner sleeve with tracklist and photographs of artists with caption. Conceived by David Claridge, who apparently traveled around Tokyo with a hand-held Sony cassette recorder and inserted snippets of ambient city sounds and overheard conversations between the cuts which provide the actual meat of the album. Liner notes: "Collating the tracks for this album has not proved to be the easiest of tasks. However I hope these tracks will serve as a foretaste of what is to come from Japan in the future. The Mobile Suit Corporation will be focussing on the East and unearthing as much new talent as possible. David Claridge" On back cover: Ambient sounds recorded in Tokyo June 81 by David Claridge, Y.
