Cover Notes: The playful and summery 'Halilim Halilim' was inadvertently named by Dani Ever Hadani of Middle Eastern psych and surf rockers, Ouzo Bazouka, and alludes to how love enters and leaves our lives like the air blown through a flute. Ilam Smilan's exceptional guitar playing stands out, as does the unwavering groove and rhythm of drummer Raz Man; recently heard among a coterie of feted studio musicians for Mr Bongo signing Project Gemini. On 'A Flower Called Indica', Yurika's Japanese vocal pays tribute to the ubiquitous allure of flowers, and the powerful bonds between friends, over Sababa 5's psychedelic groove. The second half of the record collects Sababa 5 and Yurika's earlier and incredibly popular singles. The dance floor smashing 'Tokyo Midnight' is an uptempo psychedelic funk ripper, whilst 'Nasnusa', with its walking bassline and nostalgic love story, is the biggest hit in Sababa 5's repertoire thus far.

Extras: Transparent blue coloured vinyl.
