Comments

Japan Original Pressing.

A cult 1975 Japanese electronic-organ masterpiece — dreamy, psychedelic and strangely futuristic, featuring the legendary “The Word II.”

Shigeo Sekito turns the Electone into something far stranger than easy listening on this cult 1975 album. Familiar songs by Eumir Deodato, Leon Russell, Procol Harum and The Beatles are rebuilt with woozy organ tones, lounge-jazz rhythms and beautifully psychedelic electronic textures.

But the real revelation is Sekito’s own “The Word I / II” — especially the hypnotic “The Word II,” later brought to a new global audience through Mac DeMarco’s “Chamber of Reflection” and sampled by HUNCHO JACK on “How U Feel.”

Dreamy, kitsch, cosmic and completely unique — one of the great rediscovered Japanese electronic records of the ’70s.

About the Condition

Grade	Description
S (Sealed)	Still sealed in factory wrap. Never played.
M (Mint)	Perfect condition. Looks unplayed with no signs of use. Typically used for records that are brand new or opened but never played.
EX (Excellent)	Very clean. May have light scuffs or hairline marks, but plays perfectly.
VG+ (Very Good Plus)	Minor wear, light surface noise, no major flaws — a solid average used copy.
VG (Very Good)	Visible wear and surface noise. Plays through without skipping.
G+ (Good Plus)	Heavily used. Significant wear or scratches, but still playable.

+ / − may be added to indicate slight variations (e.g. VG+, EX−).

We visually inspect every record, and we clean each one before shipping (play-testing when needed). Even new or great-looking vinyl—especially some Japanese pressings—can have light background noise. We grade carefully by eye and ear, but it’s still a human call, so please check the notes before buying.
