Description: TOSHIKO AKIYOSHI-LEW TABACKIN BIG BAND – INSIGHTS LP 33 RPM VINYL - EX CONDITION Toshiko Akiyoshi co-led (with her husband Lew Tabackin) one of the most exciting post-bop bands forseveral decades until finally disbanding it early in the 21st century. These studio sessions make upone of her best overall albums, which includes performances of four originals. "Studio J" actually datesfrom 1957, while the pianist was studying at Berklee, and was originally recorded in a trio setting. Akiyoshistretches out for several choruses, and Bill Reichenbach contributes a pair of solid trombone solos. "Transience" is a richly textured ballad that showcases baritone saxophonist Bill Perkins, trombonist BrittWoodman and Gary Foster on soprano sax. "Sumie" features Tabackin's mesmerizing flute (an instrumentfor which he should receive wider acclaim); he also uses a piccolo later in the piece. "Minamata" is anelaborate three-part suite that features a 13-year-old vocalist (Michiru Mariano), a fine flügelhorn solo byBobby Shew, and narration by several Japanese artists, resulting in a stunning tone poem.
