An exciting pick up this week, and a welcomed reissue on #vinyl.

Nobuo Hara brilliantly paired his mighty 17-member big band #jazz group with the traditional Japanese shakuhachi (bamboo flute) performed by the legendary #HozanYamamoto.

This soundtrack is like the last Walker Brothers album with more disco, minimal electronics, and bamboo flute. Hot, bright, and dark. Very good. #HozanYamamoto #YuImai #jazz #disco #electronic #flute #ambient
