  1. Nick, I actually just ordered an album of his thru IMJ! You run the Disneyland of Japanese jazz for us here!And provide a much-needed spiritual antidote to the sickening saga of Mr. Goto [RIP].

  2. Thank you, Nick!

    As for Motogotozo's comment, I'm utterly clueless about the Disneyland of Jp. jazz, sickening sagas, and all that. Must be some insider joke.

  3. Mr Goto is the journalist who was murdered in Syria, Otto.

  6. Disneyland here in the USA was a place of dreams,fun and anticipation. Millions of kids were raised to hope their parents would take them there, and later DisneyWorld. Nick's bottomless bag of jazz goodies creates in me the same feeling. He knows it was a compliment, I'm sure! The rest is kinda self-explanatory, isn't it? I give up...

  8. Nick, I just found out from IMJ that the Takagi "2001.07.06" cd I ordered is now O/P. Oh well! But still I highly recommend to everyone they order from IMJ- they still have a lot of great stuff and are fast and friendly. And do you know anything about Universal supposedly
    reissuing a lot of great Japanese free jazz stuff? Thanks!
