Vinyl LP pressing. Kiyoshi Kitagawa, the world's greatest jazz bassist, is releasing two rare leader albums simultaneously on analog vinyl, which were only available at concert venues and through online stores! The supreme acoustic jazz performed by the regular trio of Mayuko Katakura and Shun Ishiwaka. As a regular member of legendary jazz pianist Kenny Barron, who was nominated for the 67th Grammy Awards, bassist Kiyoshi Kitagawa has been active at the forefront of jazz in the sacred city of New York since he came to the United States in 1988. His 2017 lead work will be released on analog vinyl, long awaited by jazz fans. Engineer Shinya Matsushita of PICCOLO AUDIO WORKS remastered this gem for the analog version, allowing the listener to enjoy a rich wood bass with overtones and greater depth.
