$44.95

<p class="faq-quote">"This final volume features a selection of tracks that is as diverse as it is deep, reflecting the rich and varied Japanese jazz scene that spanned from the late 1960s to the late 1980s, a golden era of innovation and creativity. J Jazz volume 5 sees compilers <a href="https://www.turntablelab.com/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct&amp;q=J%20Jazz%20Deep%20Modern%20Jazz&amp;_=pf&amp;pf_v_artist_manufacturer=Tony%20Higgins%20%26%20Mike%20Peden" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tony Higgins and Mike Peden</a> dig ever deeper into their respective record collections to reveal tracks that encompass myriad styles including white hot jazz funk fusion from <strong>Toshiyuki Honda</strong> (Eastern Legacy) and <strong>Mikio Masuda</strong> (Sonic Barrier), super rare ethnic jazz crossover by Crystal Zone – their one-off 45 promo release from 1971, Rai Rai, a deconstructed and abstract jazz classic by <strong>Yasuhiro Kohno</strong> with his solo piano rendition of My Favourite Things, and Mile and Half’s skin-tearing, shredding freak-out from their mega rare private press album. A track that is so relentless, it leaves the listener in need of oxygen and a Valium. Most of the tracks on this collection are being reissued for the first time, many of them only available previously on extremely limited and mega-rare private press or independent releases. J Jazz volume 5 is a fitting end to a compilation series that helped create a new audience and appreciation of Japanese jazz." - BBE</p> <ul> <li>180g black triple vinyl pressing (<span style="text-decoration: underline;">please note</span>: actual pressing color and packaging may differ from mock-up photo)</li> <li>housed in deluxe gatefold sleeve w/ extensive liner notes</li> <li>includes obi strip</li> <li>music label: BBE 2026</li> </ul> <!---PREORDER START---> <div class="preorder-module"> <h2 class="preorder"><a name="preorderpolicy">Pre-Order Policy</a></h2> <ul> <li>If you want to order additional items (<b>including other pre-orders</b>), please make separate orders.
