Masabumi Kikuchi for Flying Disk Japan from 1978. Masabumi Kikuchi-Piano;Gary Peacock-Bass;AlFoster-Drums;Badal Roy-Tabla;Alyrio Lima-Percussion;Azzedin Weston-Percussion. Another Blogland exclusive for this one from Japan. A wonderful piece of piano trio dynamics augmented by percussion (check the enclosed rear sleeve credits).When I bought this I wasn't really taken by it at all....but the more I listened the more the album grew on me and now I'm just blown away by it. Check out Gary Peacock's "Pumu #1" featuring Badal Roy in full effect embellishing a static motif allowing Kikuchi to go into full flow. "Circle Dance" is as it sounds and perhaps the acoustic cousin of the fantastic "Circle Line" from Kikuchi's 1981 release "Susto". The whole lp is great so just download and open your mind....fabulous music...highly recommended. All Killer No Filler!

Cinematic Travels (Ron Trent) for Village Japan from 2007. and now for something completely different.... Congas - Angel Figueroa/Keyboards - Ron Trent/Percussion - Angel Figueroa, Ron Trent Piano [Rhodes] - Ron Trent,Programmed By - Ron Trent,Violin - Dorian Chea One for the come down ..... Here's Ron's view : Cinematic Travels with the first album released entitled Ancient Future which is an experimental Jazz/World music influenced project I worked on for about a year. It’s combination of live and electronic elements fused together. I got a chance to work with a few great musicans such as Karsh Kale from Tabla Beat Science, Angel Figaroea, a master percussionist who’s played with Herbie Hancock but also Sting, Celia Cruz, Mongo Santamaria, and Vinx just to name a few, another featured percussionist Ken Robertson and my friend Gary Durdan from the famous TV show CSI. The album is a fusion of traditional folkloric ryhthms and visual orchestration. OIR luvs Detroit All Killer No
