Saudade LP

Masayoshi Takanaka's "Saudade LP" returns on salmon pink vinyl, blending nostalgia with crisp sound. This remaster from the original tapes, cut at Abbey Road, revitalizes the 1982 release, infusing it with a vibrant warmth. Takanaka's dexterous guitar dances with contributions from Sheila E., reminding listeners that the subtleties of jazz can be both playful and intricate, if not slightly indulgent.
