Justin Heathcliff
Biography
Justin Heathcliff (?????????????) was the pseudonym of Japanese producer/musician Dr. Osamu Kitajima. Osamu was already a successful composer of TV and advertising jingles, when a move to the UK in 1971 brought him in to contact with British folk and psychedelic rock. Inspired in particular by The Beatles, Tyrannousaurus Rex and Syd Barrett, he dubbed himself "Justin Heathcliff" (picked for its English-sounding quality) and issued his lone eponymous album.
