Worth getting. Sakamoto's solo release has more character than some of his group's collective outings. It's a fascinating listen from start to finish--especially 'Riot In Lagos' which was recently featured in a compilation put together by Mantronix. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of most of YMO's backcatalogue on CD later this month, too bad this release isn't on the agenda. Grab it if you see it! Grab it!!
