Recorded in 1989/90 and released in April 1991, Rain Tree Crow was a reunion project by the former members of Japan, David Sylvian, Mick Karn, Steve Jansen and Richard Barbieri . The first time they had collaborated as a four-piece since 1982.
Somehow I totally missed this album when it was first released but having picked up a copy of the 2019 vinyl reissue it has to be one of my favourite purchases of the year.
I’ve owned a copy of this since it came out and it gets played regularly. It’s a pity that they didn’t make more albums as I prefer this to their Japan albums. 4/5
