Our Take

The Nippon Columbia Masters - Selected By Yusuke Ogawa (Universounds) is a mouthful of a title for an album, but don't let that deter you from delving into the deep, heavy, and beautiful jazz from Japan spanning the years 1968-1984. This collection, part of the Wajazz: Japanese Jazz Spectacle series, is a true celebration of some of the most innovative and daring jazz artists from the land of the rising sun.

From the funky grooves of Toshiko Akiyoshi to the ethereal melodies of Ryo Fukui, this album is a veritable treasure trove of musical delights. Each track is like a journey through time and space, transporting you to smoky jazz clubs in Tokyo or bustling streets in Osaka. The musicianship on display here is truly top-notch, with every note played with precision and passion.

Yusuke Ogawa has done a stellar job curating this collection, selecting only the finest gems from the Nippon Columbia archives. His love and appreciation for Japanese jazz shines through in every track, making this album a must-have for any jazz aficionado.

So grab a cup of sake, sit back, and let the sounds of Wajazz: Japanese Jazz Spectacle Vol. 1 wash over you. This is jazz music at its finest, and a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese jazz. You won't be disappointed.
