Emperor Tomato Ketchup is a 1996 album by the band Stereolab. It is named after a 1972 underground art movie by Shuji Terayama of the same name. The permanent line-up at the time was Tim Gane, Laetitia Sadier, Mary Hansen, Morgan Lhote, Andrew Ramsay and Duncan Brown. Shortly after the band recorded the album, Brown left Stereolab's fold (his exemplary bass work can be found on track three of the album) and was replaced by Richard Harrison (who, in turn, was replaced by the current bass player Simon Johns).
