Description
The baroque sounds of 70s Japanese songwriter Tatsuro Yamashita were captured and released in two EPs from New York and LA. The NYC EP was produced and arranged by Charlie Calello, featuring collaborations from Pat Rebillot, Randy Brecker, and Jon Faddis, giving it a jazz-steeped, Crusaders-esque flavor. The EP from the City of Angels had more backing vocals, with a mellow Free Soul style. Standout tracks include "Windy Lady", "Circus Town", "Minnie", "Last Step", and "City Way".
