 バック・トゥ・リズム

The pleasure of having your whole body go numb with every stroke of the drum. Japan's super funky drummer, Akira Ishikawa, runs around the wonderland of groove!

Akira Ishikawa is a superb funky drummer born in Japan. His ability to travel freely and fuse jazz, rock, and African music into a unique musical style has been highly acclaimed in many fields. His career is lined with masterpieces of jazz-rock and rare groove, but this album is especially favored for its outstanding selection of songs and poignant musicality. The album includes "Let's Start," a tight cover of Fela Kuti's Afro-funk, "Bongo Rock," a dynamic song with drum breaks, and "Pick Up The Pieces," a jazz-funk version of the Avebury White Band's classic. Pieces," a jazz-funk version of the Avebury White Band classic, and many other monster tunes that are hard to believe were recorded in 1975. The album is also supported by such virtuoso musicians as Kiyoshi Sugimoto, Hiromasa Suzuki, and Ken Muraoka.
