Bi Kyo Ran is a Japanese progressive rock band that has been around since 1973 but released their debut LP in 1982. Together with the follow-up that came out in 1983, you immediately get hold of their best albums. Later albums certainly have their moments but as a whole are less cohesive and come across as a bit fragmented.
In 2004 they released 2 soundtracks, namely from the Japanese cartoon series Cromartie High School. So here’s part 1, 23 songs are on it and it’s somewhere between progressive rock and indeed an original soundtrack 🙂
