Minoru “Hoodoo” Fushimi’s first album, Thanatos Of Funk, is given it's due by the good folks at 180G. Working in collaboration with Fushimi, this LP is re-mastered and cut at the Timmion Cutting lab. It comes a copy of the original hand written lyrics that are also translated into English. Fushimi self-produced, designed and distributed Thanatos of Funk in 1985 while working as a high-school teacher.
