CD (Item 605944) King (Japan), 2012 — Condition: New Copy

Bold sounds from reedman Akira Sakata – easily one of the most powerful saxophonists on the planet at the moment! The set features Akira stretching out in a series of long improvisations – with a shifting lineup that includes Jim O'Rourke on guitar, Yosuke Yamashita on piano, Darin Gray on bass, and Chris Corsano on drums – used in different combinations on the album's five extended tracks! Titles include "Five Elephants In A Beetle", "After 40 Years", "Flying Chikamorachi", "Kaguya Hime Standing On Her Head", and "Arekore Shitsaki".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
