YOSUKE YAMASHITA TRIO/ITARU OKI TRIO/YUJI OHNO TRIO /KIMIKO KASAI - Trio By Trio + 1 [2lp] (Japanese Import)

Yosuke Yamashita, Itaru Oki, Yuji Ohno, and Kimiko Kasai. An astonishing jazz workshop with a never-before-seen encounter. Japanese jazz was so sharp and original. Yosuke Yamashita Trio, Itaru Oki Trio, Yuji Ohno Trio, and Kimiko Kasai. Three trios and one vocalist, Trio by Trio Plus One. This is a live recording of a jazz workshop held in 1970, and the original was released as part of Victor's 'Japanese Jazz' series. Just looking at the lineup of musicians gives off an extraordinary atmosphere, making this a special work. Yamashita was a leading figure in the scene as the darling of the times. Oki came to Tokyo from Osaka in the mid-1960s and attracted attention. Ohno was a man of supple musicality who played everything from modern jazz to new jazz. And Kasai is just about to blossom. Needless to say, each performance is powerful and fascinating, but this album also features a performance by a unique seven-person group consisting of the Oki Trio, Ohno Trio, and Kasai. This is a two-disc set of super-class that reminds us once again just how original Japanese jazz was. Text by Yusuke Ogawa (UNIVERSOUNDS / DEEP JAZZ REALITY) LISTEN: https://youtu.
