2022 reissue on turquoise vinyl - In his latest guise, Nathaniel Merriweather, Nakamura presents Lovage, a surreal parody of ’60s soul-man seduction albums. Co-written with leading man Mike Patton (Faith No More) and sultry femme fatale Jennifer Charles (Elysian Fields) — aided and abetted by the likes of Prince Paul, Blur’s Damon Albarn, Afrika Bambaataa and Canadian scratchmaster Kid Koala — Nakamura insinuates his way into your ears with a typically kooky lineup of slinky boudoir grooves and tantalizing melodies, artfully spun together into laughably lovable tracks like Ladies Love Chest Rockwell and Herbs, Good Hygiene and Socks.
