    "Kizashi": their best seller (you wouldn't believe the figure), reissued SHM-CD in 2009.
    "Hogiuta": same, SHM-CD in 2009. Both through a MAJOR, watch out!
    "Legend of the sea myself": PJL.
    "Q": Sony Music!
    "Kairos": PJL.
    "Spiritual Moments": PJL.
    "Mirage": PJL.

    Bad picks, Onx, I'm sorry. Drop me an e-mail via my website, OK?

    I've been wanting to hear this record, shakuhachi en général and Yamashita being two personal favorites of mine. Curious to listen !
    Once again Vielen dank Onxidlib. It's like Christmas everyday here.

    Thank you IB for your help! It seems from my list only "Voices" remains to be posted.

    It's my pleasure, Frédito.

    @ Anonymous - I do not have TAKEHITO HONDA - SALAAM SALAAM - in fact I've never heard about this musician.

    To Frédito and everyone who likes the sound of shakuhachi.
    There is a new CD on the label "Another Timbre" with marvelous shakuhachi music.
    The player is Yoshikazu Iwamoto who plays compositions by Frank Denyer (composer extraordinaire).It is available for 11 GBP directly > http://www.anothertimbre.com/denyershakuhachi.html.

    Yoshikazu Iwamoto is also to be heard on a recording with Eddie Prévost and John Tilbury.

    Onxidlib, merci for your recommendations. One is ordered and the other is bookmarked.
    I believe that the first shakuhachi record I heard was one of Iwamoto san.

    Aldus/ Onx: I have the "Salaam Salaam" album by Takehiro Honda piano with Juni Booth on bass and Eric Gravatt on drums, recorded Tokyo 16 June 1974, on East Wind 8005. It's a corker. I'll try and get it up here via Sotise ... in teh New Year ...
