The following review is from record store Tiliqua Records (http://www.tiliqua-records.com/rare/reco_O-P.html) about the original 1973 LP pressing. I'm not sure in which track this "Momoi Kaoru" is supposedly singing. Maybe the CD release doesn't have that song.
�Hopelessly obscure soundtrack balancing the tightrope between butt shaking songs, orchestral lullabies and folk excursions, all created by Higuchi Yasuo a renowned musical director who had his hand in countless movie soundtrack productions. Some of his obscure violence pink movie scores got some years back released by Ultra Vibe I believe but his most famous soundtrack to the movie �Akai Tori Nigeta?� remained elusive for many decades. Ranging from razor sharp cutting guitar riffage, demented swirling horns, funked up vibes towards folk-ish female vocal escapades and cinematographic scores, �Akai Tori Nigeta?� embraces all a good soundtrack should behold. Higuchi�s eye for detail and wide musical interest are fully coming to blossom here, touching on a wide range of styles but all executed with so much finesse he turns every track into a true shimmering jewel. As for female vocalist fetishists out there, it features the intoxicating vocal chords of Momoi Kaoru and Yasuda Minami amongst others, each bringing forth totally addictive songs you will keep on going back to. In short, this LP will appeal to the mid-1970s groove heads out there. Again a tough one to unearth on these shores, only took me 6 years to find me a copy and finally here is a spare. Highly recommended.�
