Jiro INAGAKI / VARIOUS
Funky Best (remastered) (limited heavyweight vinyl LP with obi-strip)
Cat: CNLP 82. Rel: 04 Sep 24
Review: Japan meets funky disco in an explosive fusion led by maestro Jiro Inagaki here on a classic album that gets a worthy reissue. In a particularly inspired year during which he also released Funky Stuff on Nippon Columbia, Inagaki masterfully reinterprets tracks by Quincy Jones, Commodores, Graham Central Station, B.T. Express, Kool and The Gang, Stevie Wonder, Sly and The Family Stone, Ohio Players, Ripple, and Billy Preston on this one. He does so in collaboration with Hiromasa Suzuki, a prominent name in Japanese jazz, and seasoned session musicians who add their own spice. Inagaki brings a fresh, danceable sound here with a broad mix of inspirations from jazz to city pop all shining through.

Jiro INAGAKI / YUSUKE OGAWA / VARIOUS
WaJazz Legends: Jiro Inagaki (Japanese Edition) (gatefold 180 gram gold vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: 180 GHMVLP. Rel: 28 Sep 23
Review: Japanese jazzmasuta Jiro Inagaki is graced by a stunning new tribute album via 180g, Legends, which celebrates his 90th birthday in 16-track compilation form. Made up entirely of works made between 1968 and 1980, and selected by DJ and producer Yusuke Ogawa, this is an album made almost entirely of Jiro's best-known instrumentals, not least a formerly unreleased version of the standout 'Express'. The recordings are impeccable, and this is a standard which does not waver over the entire 12-year period this LP spans.

Yusuke OGAWA / VARIOUS
Japanese Jazz Spectacle Vol I: Deep Heavy & Beautiful Jazz From Japan 1968-1984 (gatefold 180 gram vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: 180G HMVLP01. Rel: 07 Apr 22
Review: Another comprehensive collection of jazz here from the good people at Light in The Attic. This 14 track compilation has been carefully selected and compiled by Japanese jazz expert Yusuke Ogawa, who is the owner of Tokyo's Universounds record store. It comes on heavyweight vinyl with vast track-by-track liner notes by Ogawa and take sin everything from hard bop to free jazz with plenty of big and explosive moments as well as more deep and introspective sections of calm, all of which has been plucked from the vaults of Nippon Columbia. There is a reason Japanese jazz is so revered, and this record shows why.
