Marvellous...where do you find 'em, Nick?
Anyway, thanks again for sharing....I'm listening to it whilst typing this. The title says it all...."A Jam in Yokota"
big TH !!!....
If it has Hino on drums, I'm definitely listening. Keep up the great work - always love a j-jazz spotlight.
Thank you.
This is great, thank you!
Looking forward to this one.
I owe this blog (and Nick in particular!) so much for broadening my horizons far beyond US/European recordings.
A wonderful J-Jazz share. Thanks, Nick.
Nick, listening to this reminded me of a Japanese film called "Battles Without Honor and Humanity". If you like Yakuza films this is the one to watch. Its telling of the Yakuza's rise in Japan after WW II is chilling. This album would have provided a perfect soundtrack.
