This is a 2022 reissue vinyl LP pressing of Super Percussion Vol. 1 by Tatsuo Hayashi. The Japanese drummer and music producer originally released his album on November 25, 1979, via Crown Records. The self-produced album has historically been famous as a drum break album by Japanese DJs, has an A-side that extracts only the rhythm section from drums to percussion, and a B-side that features a fusion instrumental mix of performances by Masaki Matsubara and Tsuyoshi Kon.

The tight disco track, “SUCHA ROCA” and the light mellow fusion funk track, “HI-G”, as well as the iconic beat collection on the record’s A-side, are recommended for track makers everywhere.
