A must-listen album from a master of the tenor saxophone who has left behind some important works of "Japanese jazz."
Released in 1982. This album is a quartet consisting of Masahiko Sato (Pf.), Nobuyoshi Ino (B.), and Motohiko Hino (D.), and all the songs on it are standard numbers.
This is an album that even non-jazz fans will want to listen to, as it conveys the joy of jazz with tracks such as the title track "On Green Dolphin Street," which is overwhelming with its free-flowing sax blow-up, the bluesy Miles Davis track "Vierd Blues," and the swing jazz of Charlie Parker's "Thriving On A Riff."
