Interesting new Japanese titles

Hello my fellow fans of Japanese movie/TV soundtracks

In a recent email from Movie Grooves I learned of a new Japanese "crime-jazz" title called Jaguar wa Hashitta (translation "Running Jaguar" or "Jaguar Runs" or something like that! The CD cover itself calls the film "The Creature Called Man" ) on the Japanese Bridge label. The sound clips are really cool, and if you liked the score titles on the Think label, I think these are for you. Here is the link to the title on both Movie Grooves and Amazon Japan:

Also I found another soundtrack on the Bridge label from the 70's called "Hairpin Circus" it also seems to be from the 70's but I couldn't find any info on it, even in the Japanese Movie Database! I ordered both CD's from Amazon Japan and I'll post some info when I recieve them.
