Chikada Haruo "Chikada Haruo Best ~ The Baddest Guy In The World"

Chikada Haruo, an artist active musically since 1970, released last November vocal album "chō jōdan dakara" which was his first original album under his name in 38 years. Just two months later he also released an instrumental album as unit LUNASUN, "Organ Heaven". Through the years he always been active under different names and with various bands or units. So it's about time for a greatest hits album!

With a focus on original songs of rock and vocal pop genres, this album takes its selection from labels King, Columbia and Victor. Included are many rare tracks, with many by his bands Chikada Haruo & Haruophone (active circa 1972-1978) and Chikada Haruo & Vibra-Tones (1981-1984). Also included is a brand new song by Chikada's latest band "katsuyōchū" (formed with long-time collaborators Tsuneda Yoshimi and Takagi Eiichi). All songs have been remastered.

The first pressing includes a random Chikada Haruo trading card (one of 8 different ones).
