Isao Suzuki - Mongolian Chant - LP

Super Rare Japanese original by bassist Isao Suzuki. Much in demand by collectors and original issue copies sell for $$$!

DUSTY GROOVE SAYS: 'A really inventive little record from Japanese bassist Isao Suzuki - and a set that, like most of his best 70s work, really defies any sort of easy categorization! Suzuki's got a wonderfully wide range of ideas running through his music - at one level a really close-up and personal interpretation of the bass that makes for some beautiful solos (including work on piccolo bass too) - but at another, a wider group vision that has the instruments coming together in unexpected ways, with really creative rhythms that definitely keep things fresh. There's a bit of electricity at points, giving some fusion inflections to some tunes - yet in ways that are quite different than regular fusion records - and the album features guest work from Shigeharu Mukai on trombone and Toshiyuki Honda on soprano sax and flute.
