Camera! Camera! Camera! (Guitar Pop Version) – Flippers Guitar (feat. Ruts DC) (1990)
'Flipper's Guitar' were a Tokyo-based rock band led by (and later a duo of) Keigo Oyamada and Kenji Ozawa. The band were influenced by the chirpy sound of British 80s pop groups like 'Haircut One Hundred', 'Exhibit B', 'The Style Council' and 'Aztec Camera'*, as well as the fashionably eclectic sounds of early 90s Britain, from alternative dance to acid jazz. The sonic experimentation of Brian Wilson was also evident in some tracks.
Camera! Camera! Camera! First appeared on their 2nd album 'Camera Talk' in 1990.
The 'Guitar Pop' version first appeared on the CD single in 1990 and then on their 'Colour Me Pop' compilation CD in 1991.
It featured bass by Segs Jennings and drums from Dave Ruffy (a.k.a. Ruts DC).
*Incidentally, Dave Ruffy was also the drummer for 'Aztec Camera', one of the bands that influenced 'Flipper's Guitar', between 1981 and 1985.
'Flipper's Guitar' split in 1991.
'Ruts DC' continue to this day.
