Seiichi Nakamura: Wolf’s Theme (Japan Import) Vinyl LP

“This album represents one of Seiichi Nakamuras ideals a vision where the saxophone soars freely like a bird, liberating the listener and guiding them into a new world. During his time with the Yosuke Yamashita Trio, Nakamura poured his entire being into every note, weaving flashes of inspiration and raw impulses into powerful blows in the early 1970s. With this work, he undergoes yet another transformation. As Nakamura himself described: ‘Sharing space with everyone, feeling as if were flying freely like birds thats the ideal.’ Here, layers of sound and moments of silence expand the sonic space, and within it, Nakamuras saxophone runs vibrantly and unrestrained. Highlights include the exhilarating ‘Wolfs Theme’, inspired by Kazumasa Hirais Wolf Guy series; the nostalgic melodies and relaxed groove of ‘Harappa’; elegant, richly textured interpretations of standards like ‘Body & Soul’ and ‘I Cant Get Started’; and the dynamic, liberating energy of ‘Viva Giappone’. In every track, Nakamuras ideal is vividly realized. Featuring contributions from Toshiyuki Daitoku, Aki Takase, and Ryojiro Furusawa.” – Teichiku Records
