LOL not all David, but they draw my interest back at the time by reputedly being among the most unknown Japanese Prog bands.Rare vinyls with no reissue was propably the reason vinyl collectors were chasing the band's efforts.


My opinion was petty honest, and straight I think they were basically a Symphonic Rock band with a Fusion aura, good candidate for the symphonics, but I wouldn't mind to see them also in the Eclectic family.Neo it is not, that's for sureWink

Here are some more YouTube samples:
 
 
 
 
SILVER ELEPHANT（Kichijoji Tokyo Japan）produced an omnibus CD in 1993. Negasphere played this track called "KEEN". Guitars - Kohichi Hanada , Keyboards - Kaoru Kawasaki, Bass -Naoto Amazaki, Drums - Shiro Sugano. Composed by Kaoru Kawasaki.
 
 
And some live vids:
 
 
 
 
Cool
 
Edit: We've got the whole of the 'Castle In The Air ' album, plus the first two tracks of side one and the first track of side two from the 1985 'Disadvantage' album in these two posts (as well as the "Keen" track from the Silver Elephant 'Super Omnibus' sampler, which doesn't actually feature on any of their albums) - I reckon that should be enough for an eval.  Smile

I couldn't reopen the last thread (here) cause so much time passed but since then it looks like some samples for this Japanese band have surfaced so maybe they can fit into a sub  this time. Apparently in total they released two albums in the 80's and something of a compilation of other material in 1991 (discography). Maybe more for symph then neo, but I'm not an expert. Also some info on proggnosis.
