This is a not-for-sale record produced in 1977 to introduce the technology of Epicurus Studio, a recording studio built in the 1970s by Nippon Gakki Seizo (YAMAHA). It features the classic A1 from the 1973 album "Blow Up" by the Isao Suzuki Trio & Quartet, B1 from the 1976 album "The Big 4" by George Kawaguchi and the Big 4, Mari Nakamoto, Shoji Yokouchi Quartet, Yama & Jiro's Wave, Toshio Oïda, Toshiyuki Miyama & New Hard, were re-recorded at Epicurus Studios. All of the tracks were recorded and mixed for this album by Yoshihiko Kannari, the resident engineer at Epicurus Studios, and were cut to a wonderfully high quality. This is a piece that allows you to enjoy a performance and sound quality that is different from the music on each artist's original album. Inside the spread is a detailed description of the instrument layout and microphone settings for each station.
A1: Isao Suzuki “Aqua Marine”B1: George Kawaguchi’s Big 4 “Sleepy’s Funk”
