A unique sound that blew a hole in Japanese rock.
Haruyuki Mizuguchi, formerly of the Cools, releases a rock album with a strong blues influence. A one-of-a-kind presence.
"Black or White" is a solo work released in 1980 by Haruyuki Mizuguchi, who is also known as a member of the rockabilly band "The Cools". It is a work that exquisitely matches Japanese lyrics with a tight sound that mixes elements of rock and roll, blues, and funk. The husky and powerful vocals are impressive, and his attitude of not pandering to commercialism has instead attracted charismatic support. This work symbolizes the "back alleys" of Japanese rock.
