Comments:
I saw an RC Succession disk for $6.00 used and I had to buy it.
I'm not a big fan, but I quite like the lead singer's, Iwamano
Kiyoshiro's voice.  The instrumentation is good, though not
my total cup of tea.  This must be their 20th album, which
is, while good, just more of the same.
Grade:  B-
Other Comments:  Bought at Aron's Records (LA) used for $6.00.
