About the Band

EDDIE LEGEND STORY

Living up to his name, Eddie Legend is largely know for his role in shaping the early Back from the Grave scene in Tokyo during his stint in the currently wildly popular all-girl trio 5678's and as a founding member of psycho-surf garage band MAD3. Over the years, Eddie has honed his 007 meets 50's biker look as well as his instrumental rock 'n' roll guitar skills. He recruited a few other chic cats to back him up as well as the lovely Reiko for occasional vocal expositions and thus the EDDIE LEGEND STORY was born!

PACIFICTION REVIEW:

Virtuoso garage-intro guitarist EDDIE LEGEND along his lovely wife REIKO infuse '0's British punk and glam with Showa pop, a quasi traditional form of Japanese oldies, on this hauntingly splendid EP. The original title track sound like it could have been written in Tokyo in the 60's for an avant Yakuza biker flick with plenty of Kaji Meiko kinda chicks. Then they cover THE DAMNED and SWEET! Sandwiched between is a Japanese cabaret number titled "Dressing To Kill" which sounds like it's from a black and white spy thriller. EDDIE has truly met his Bond girl in REIKO!
