I am pretty sure that I first heard Masami Tsuchiya because I bought an album or two based on the cover. Later found out his links to Japan and Bill Nelson and then Ryuichi Sakamoto and Duran Duran. But it started with Ippu-Do and Lunatic Guitar and Rice Music. Also his solo albums. This WTC came from that. The Orquesta De La Luz has Rice in Spanish although they are a Japanese salsa band. They have some killer salsa tracks. The rest is all over the place as well. Reggae, Zydeco, Jazz, New Wave, even a commercial. This rice is cooking (and probably longer then twenty minutes). A cooking joke. Great.

This is a 1950s top hit, and original.
What a great calypso feel! Love it
