Description
Taken from the rare 1978 private press album Introducing by the Hideyasu Terakawa Quartet featuring Hiroshi Fujii, this private press gig recording was originally released in less than 100 copies. This BBE Music edition is the first time this very rare album has ever been reissued.
Led by saxophonist Hideyasu Terakawa alongside bassist Tetsuo Miura and drummer Aki- hiro “Thunder” Nakaya, the album was recorded live in concert as Terakawa stopped by at the jazz spot DIG in Masuda City, Japan, on the first of a seven-day regional tour in October 1978. Joining the trio was the featured guest, vibist Hiroshi Fujii.
According to Fujii, a special label, Red Horison, released only this one album and it was sold at a few local record stores and available for sale when we played live. After this live recording, I did not perform with Terakawa again. The current whereabouts of saxophonist Hideyasu Terakawa remain a mystery.
The album [features]fascinating interpretations of material by leading American jazz composers such as Wayne Shorter (Black Nile), Frank Foster (Simone) and Milt Jackson and Jimmy Heath (Rerev). – Label
