Tsuyoshi Yamamoto - Life - Vinyl LP
Japanese Import - Limited Edition
2026
*Life*, the second East Wind release by popular pianist Tsuyoshi Yamamoto, joins the lineup for the ninth installment of the "Spin This Now!" series! Backed by a stellar rhythm section featuring Sam Jones on bass and Billy Higgins on drums, Yamamoto delivers a performance brimming with swing. His delicate ballad work on "If You Could See Me Now" is another highlight not to be missed.
East Wind was a groundbreaking jazz label established in 1974 through a full-scale partnership between Ai Music and Nippon Phonogram (as they were known at the time). Over a span of roughly five years, the label produced albums featuring not only Japanese musicians like Masabumi Kikuchi, Sadao Watanabe, and Terumasa Hino, but also artists who were driving creative innovation in the global jazz scene. Beyond the musical quality, the album artwork—created by top designers and photographers—offered a fresh aesthetic that revolutionized the image of jazz albums and exerted a significant influence on future record production.
