A Special Collection: Earthshaker’s ’Shaker’s Shakies’ (K20P666)
Let’s explore a special release from Japanese hard rock legends Earthshaker, their 1987 EP titled “Shaker’s Shakies.” Issued on the Nexus label (King Records) with the catalog number K20P666, this 12-inch, 33 ⅓ RPM vinyl offered fans a unique collection of tracks.
Released in 1987, this EP provides a diverse snapshot of Earthshaker’s musical range during that period. It features a mix of studio recordings and a special live track, showcasing both their polished studio sound and their powerful stage presence. The EP came well-packaged with a picture/lyric insert, a large poster, and an obi-strip.
The tracklist includes:
A1: Shadow
A2: Cocolo Made Wa
A3: Orange Agent
B1: Okizarishi Toki ~ “More”
B2: Arigato Kimi Ni
Side A presents three studio tracks showcasing their signature melodic hard rock style. Side B offers two particularly interesting pieces. “Okizarishi Toki ~ ‘More’” is a special, rearranged acoustic piano version of their iconic anthem “More” (originally from the “Fugitive” album), offering a completely different perspective on the classic song. The closing track, “Arigato Kimi Ni,” is a live recording captured during their triumphant performance at the Nippon Budokan, preserving the energy of that significant concert.
K20P666 stands as a valuable release for Earthshaker fans, combining studio tracks with a unique acoustic rendition and a meaningful live recording. It captures the band’s versatility and offers essential material from their successful late 80s period.
