The latest remastered complete reissue of gem sessions from the original master tapes! The first volume of the Japanese Jazz Original Masterworks Collection. Why is Japanese jazz so fascinating in the turbulent Showa era? In the 1990s, Japanese jazz gradually attracted attention from the enthusiasts, and around 2005, the term "Japanese jazz" was coined and Japanese jazz became a bit of a boom. 2009 saw the release of "Japanese Jazz Disc Guide (Koki Hanawa + Yusuke Ogawa)," which became a major movement, and the year 2023 saw the transition from the Heisei era to the 2021 era. Even now, in 2023, after the transition from the Heisei era to the 2023 era, Japanese jazz music continues to attract the attention of record collectors around the world. Nearly 30 years have passed since the wave of reevaluation, and Japanese jazz has fully established itself as one of the subdivided musical genres. The reason why it did not end as a transient boom is that the more one delves into the music, the more one recognizes its passionate musicality and the rarity of original recordings. This series is a project to enjoy such fascinating and magical Japanese jazz with original artwork and high sound quality. For more Japanese jazz swamps! Supervision: Koki Hanawa
