Description
One of finest albums featuring straight-ahead “Japanese” jazz, “Toshiyuki Sekine / Strode Road” is finally being reissued on analog vinyl.
1978 debut by Japanese pianist Toshiyuki Sekine, featuring interpretations of jazz standards with bop influences.
The original private pressing (1978) of 200 copies is now extremely rare, and has been revered by collectors since the dawn of Japanese jazz re-evaluation around 2000. “Strode Road,” a bop tune with a tense atmosphere, and the insanely light and groovy “Love For Sale” are must-listens.
