notes: 'UK Pressing of YX-5004-AX with a shuffled tracklist.

  GODIEGO is the brightest hope on both the Japanese and International music scenes.
  A five-piece Japanese rock band formed in 1976, their single ''Gandhara'' and LP
  ''Monkey'' both topped the Japanese charts in 1979. Their success is not limited
  to only the Japanese market, for many people in Britain know them for their version
  of the title song from the BBC TV series ''The Water Margin'' and of course ''Monkey''.
  It is hoped that in Godiego there lies the long-awaited creation of a Japanese band
  that would go beyond it''s domestic boundaries to attain international success.'
