A masterpiece that combines sophisticated jazz sounds with soft vocals.
A masterpiece by female jazz vocalist Yasuko Agawa. Includes songs such as "Love Bird" and "Teach Me Tonight." This urban jazz album stands out for its smooth English lyrics and sophisticated arrangements.
Agawa's vocals are light and airy, lending an urban nuance to jazz standards. "Love Bird" brings to life her subtle breathing and rhythmic fluctuations, creating an outstanding sense of unity with the band. The recording is also characterized by its clarity and warmth, naturally connecting with later AOR and fusion styles. This is an important work that laid the foundation for female jazz vocalists in Japan.
