We Release Jazz proudly presents the Hiroshi Suzuki Cat vinyl reissue, a treasured piece of jazz history originally released in 1976. This album captures the essence of Japanese jazz during a vibrant era. Recorded in October 1975 at Nippon Columbia Studio, Hiroshi Suzuki returned to Japan after honing his craft in Las Vegas with legends like Buddy Rich.
During a magical two-day session, Suzuki, affectionately known as Neko (Cat), reunited with talented friends, creating a seamless blend of groove and emotion. The result? Cat—a smooth masterpiece where enchanting trombone solos intertwine with Takeru Muraoka’s divine saxophone melodies, backed by the rhythmical prowess of Hiromasa Suzuki on keyboards, Kunimitsu Inaba on bass, and Akira Ishikawa on drums. Don’t miss your chance to own this essential album, one of the best Japanese jazz albums of the 1970s.
