Shigeharu Mukai "Spacing Out" LP

• Vinyl LP
• Jazz music

Trombonist Shigeharu Mukai’s 1978 Better Days album marks a move toward electric jazz fusion. Kazumi Watanabe’s guitar and Yasuaki Shimizu’s saxophones join keyboards, bass, drums and congas, with the extended “Dawn ~ Turbulence” opening the record. Across five Mukai compositions, the group moves between exploratory passages, funk rhythms and more melodic writing. A Japanese jazz session that connects his earlier acoustic work with his later fusion records.
