Takagi, Mototeru/kim Dae Hwan/choi Sun Bae
Seishin-seido
Another classic of Japanese, or better to say East Asian free jazz by NoBusiness. This time it is an atmospheric recording of the concert by the super trio of Mototeru Takagi, Kim Dae Hwan, and Choi Sun Bae, recorded in Café Amores in Hofu City in Japan in the Summer of 1995. They start with a duo Seishin-Seido by Mototeru Takagi and Choi Sun Bae, with absolutely phenomenbal dialogues, consonance and dissonances of the tenor saxophone and trumpet. This is followed by Mototeru's solo 'Remember.' Side B of the LP starts another solo by Choi Sun Bae this time. The set ends with the absolute highlight: a powerful trio track 'Step By Step.' A great documentation of the fame and glory of free jazz in Japan! This CD release contains two additional tracks - 'Natural Sound' and 'Ethyopia.'
