The heavy, groovy sound he crafts alongside the eccentric talent Kenji Mori remains timeless and undiminished by the years. Despite being a well-regarded and sought-after slice of Japanese jazz-funk and contemporary jazz perfection, Orang-Utan has never previously been released outside of Japan. Given that original copies of the album regularly fetch three-figure sums online, this global reissue is arguably well overdue. Recorded by Japanese scene stalwarts Isao Suzuki Quartet (with the addition of two guest musicians) in April 1975, the set is topped and tailed by two long, up-tempo workouts, of which fizzing, funk-fuelled opener \"Blue Road\" stands out (though hardcore jazz-heads may prefer the title track). In between, you'll find two relaxed, laidback affairs where Japanese jazz-rock legend Kazume Watanabe's languid solos come to the fore. Bassist Isao Suzuki's popularity shot up to stratosphere with the release of Blow Up from the Three Blind Mice label. By the time he recorded this, fourth album for the label, he was actually the winner of the Swing Journal Readers' Poll. And this rather strangely titled album doesn't disappoint. Suzuki had a knack for surrounding himself with superb musicians and playing brilliant, groovy music that is firmly rooted in the jazz tradition. This time, he picked as the all-important horn player Kenji Mori whose superb playing on alto sax, bass clarinet and flute strongly remind us of Eric Dolphy. The guitar genius Kazumi Watanabe turns in wonderfully nuanced performances in every setting. Also, not insignificantly, Mari Nakamoto--one of the best female jazz vocalists Japan has ever produced--appears as a guest and sings Shirley Horn's \"Where Are You Going?\" with excellent results.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOfficial Three Blind Mice reissue of the 1975 hit, remastered \u0026amp; cut by Bernie Grundman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g vinyl with obi strip \u0026amp; liner notes reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003eBlue Road\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003eWhere Are You Going?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide B\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003eMy One and Only Love\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003eOrangutan\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNotes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecorded on April 4, 1975 in Tokyo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLabel: Three Blind Mice \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"The Audio Co","offers":[{"title":"180g Vinyl LP with Obi-Strip","offer_id":44271919530067,"sku":null,"price":9990.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1867\/3055\/files\/isao-suzuki-quartet-2-orang-utan-theaudioco-275.webp?v=1774956998"},{"product_id":"various-rebirth-of-tbm-the-japanese-deep-jazz-compiled-by-tatsuo-sunaga","title":"Various - Rebirth of \"TBM\" The Japanese Deep Jazz [Compiled by Tatsuo Sunaga]","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"custom-field custom-field__track-listing custom-field__type--html teaser rte\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-field--value\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThree Blind Mice revitalized the Japanese jazz scene during the 1970s and 1980s.

Its goal was to be the \"Blue Note of Japan\".

Blue Note as the role model, works by TBM were recorded in the best possible sound quality. Listening to the works of the label, you can get a clear picture of the Japanese jazz scene at that time.

To be reductive, it's the Citizen Kane of jazz -- an accepted work of greatness that's innovative and entertaining. That may not mean it's the greatest jazz album ever made, but it certainly is a universally acknowledged standard of excellence. Why does Kind of Blue posses such a mystique? Perhaps it's that this music never flaunts its genius. It lures listeners in with the slow, luxurious bassline and gentle piano chords of \"So What.\" From that moment on, the record never really changes pace -- each tune has a similar relaxed feel, as the music flows easily. Yet Kind of Blue is more than easy listening. It's the pinnacle of modal jazz -- tonality and solos build from chords, not the overall key, giving the music a subtly shifting quality. All of this doesn't quite explain why seasoned jazz fans return to this record even after they've memorized every nuance. They return because this is an exceptional band - Miles, Coltrane, Bill Evans, Cannonball Adderly, Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb, and Wynton Kelly -- one of the greatest in history, playing at the peak of its power. As Evans said in the original liner notes for the record, the band did not play through any of these pieces prior to recording. Davis laid out the themes and chords before the tape rolled, and then the band improvised. The end results were wondrous, filled with performances that still crackle with vitality. Few albums of any genre manage to work on so many different levels, but Kind of Blue does. It can be played as background music, yet it amply rewards close listening. It is advanced music that is extraordinarily enjoyable. It may be a stretch to say that if you don't like Kind of Blue, you don't like jazz -- but it's hard to imagine it as anything other than a cornerstone of any jazz collection. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJapanese original release\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e180-gram Vinyl cut in Japan and pressed by SONY.

Here on this curt suite in four movements, we hear insouciant tones meld with latent recuperations of structure, as on the bell-curving emotive peaks of 'TI' and the drum brushing deconstructions of 'Sleeve My Love', with gaping, catch-up rhythms handled masterfully by Otsuka.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g vinyl with obi strip \u0026amp; liner notes reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTakao Uematsu Quartet - Inside Paris\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTakao Uematsu Quartet - Stella By Starlight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide B\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTakao Uematsu Quintet - TI\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTakao Uematsu Quintet - Sleeve My Love\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"track\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNotes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eRemastered and cut by Katsutoshi Kitamura at Mixers Lab, Warner Music Mastering (JPN)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOriginal release completely reproduced as faithfully as possible, with original obi and insert\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePressed and printed in Japan\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOfficial Three Blind Mice reissue.
