A collection of thrilling jazz standards from a powerful piano trio, possessing both passionate spirit and pure lyricism. Reissued simultaneously as a two-disc set.
This is a commemorative reissue album for the one-year anniversary of the passing of "Takehiro Honda," a leading Japanese pianist, who passed away on January 12th of the 26th year. Recorded for CBS in 1985, this work was digitally recorded using cutting-edge technology as a special CD-original project at the time. The tracklist features familiar standard numbers, but the performances by the trio of Nobuyoshi Ino (bass) and Takao Uematsu (drums) possess an overwhelming sense of scale, brimming with an almost supernatural power beneath their beautiful melodies. Reissued with a new jacket design.
To mourn the premature passing of a musician who still had so much potential at the young age of 6, a tribute live concert was held in March of the same year at Shinjuku Pit Inn, gathering renowned Japanese jazz musicians. "A pianist who coexisted destruction and lyricism, obsession and innocence"... His image, continuing to play the piano while battling illness, is deeply etched in the hearts of jazz fans. In accordance with Honda's dying wish to write his autobiography, the biography "This Is Takehiro Honda" was also published in the 27th year.
