BBE has been shining a deserving light on Japanese jazz for a while now through this on going J Jazz: Deep Modern Jazz From Japan series. This latest triple bumper pack is sub titled The Nippon Columbia label 1968 – 1981 and is again packed with next level sounds from a range of key players. Many of them will be familiar to those with a basic knowledge of jazz but plenty won’t. The likes of Nobuo Hara & His Sharps & Flats, Hozan Yamamoto go wild on ‘Chakkiri-Bushi,’ Takashi Mizuhashi joins forces with seminal American talent Herbie Hancock on ‘Samba De Negrito’ and Hiromasa Suzuki, Jiro Inagaki & His Big Soul Media make a lasting impression with the hard bop of ‘By The Red Stream.’
