On ark111's review of Subway(1971) - Subway
"@ark111 Sounds very classic English early 70's folk psych sound. Definitely could add things I've heard over the years similar to this ! I've been really distracted the last few months. Always hope someday you can share a better site, to share with you about music. You always are looking somewhere else and away from the usual already known, as I do for music. I never realized how rare that was until I joined this site."

On ark111's review of Various Artists - Nihon No Wave
"for spotify reference it is selection #9 on this comp. Check out the rest of the compilation too for other amazing sounds ! I love this compilation. Since I do not know the language and was not immersed in the music of the era, it is always difficult to find this vintage sound from Japan. https://open.spotify.com/album/1sdFLu3fWqZTwVbktwWmh4?si=xrpaR8naSdudGlNLM1s7mA"
