Japanese Movement Volume One EP (compilation)

The Japanese Movement was the Kansai awnser to British bands like Skrewdriver and the movement surrounding them. They ran a label (Human Records), shop, fanzine etc. In 1988 they released this now rare 12 inch EP featuring: Bad Vultures, Bull The Dougs, Humpty Dumpty and JM Cracker Jacks. A follow up Volume Two was planned but was never released because the JM shop closed doors due to money problems. Bands that would be featured on Volume Two were: Contraclockwise (pre LRF), JM Warmachine, Humpty Dumpty and Bull The Dougs. Posting those songs as a bonus.
