Yuya Uchida & the Flowers-Challenge! (Japanese Rock 1969 )
Debut album by Yuya Uchida & the Flowerswich was started by Yuya Uchida(born on 17 November 1939) who allready was making some rockabilly single's in the early sixties and was one of the opening performers when the beatles came to japan in 1966.
but when he came to europe in 1967 he was immediately inspired by Cream, Jimi Hendrix and the Who.
when he came back to japan he started the band The Flowers with vocalist Remi Aso his band caused a sensation in the Japanese music scene
most of the tracks on this album are covers of songs by:Cream,Big Brother and the holding company,Jefferson Airplane,Jimi Hendrix
and one original song by them
but it are good covers
After the flowers he made a new band with Joe Yamanaka
wich became The Flower Travelin' Band!
and even if he doesnt play any music anymore he also is an actor in(japanese) movies
like Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence and Deadly Outlaw: Rekka

i just discovered your blog, it's really cool. thanks for posting all of this interesting international psych-prog-avant music that i have never heard before.
oh you know, two years ago in Vienna (Austria) I was in a record shop there and they had some bootleg reissue of this Yyua Ychida album and they were charging $40 euros for it, there record-shop-jerks! I hope they all go out of buisness.
thks for putting this up. looking forward to checking this out.

i, agree with you. i had a copy of satori on a psych comp cd for years now, but never really looked into them until i stumbled on the radioactive records release of the satori album (the art is funny cause the artist writes frower instead of flower). since then i have picked up a bunch of their stuff and some other japanese bands. on cd i have satori, made in japan, make up live, and the times- a comp which has 1 tune that is not on those three. much obliged if you dump up the 'flower' music i don't have.
m
then i will upload Anywhere soon
but most of the stuff on there are covers,but good ones
Very Nice. Do you have Satori by Flower Trav or do you need that?
m
nope i dont have satori
k- you need that. it is their best. how can we talk not via blog. such as via email?
m
you can always talk to me on slsk (im DS2) or send a email(wich you can find in my profile)
Be too splendid work！
I've been longing this album for ages. Could u pls upload it again? Thanks a lot!!!
I recently was given a cd/r of Challenge and am trying to find out what label the original was on. Would you know?
Frankly, I don't like this one.
It's totally a mess-up with senseless Bluesy howlin' and musical disorder. albums released after "Anywhere" are all good stuff. anyway any transition period is inevitable.
