Hiromasa Suzuki, a legendary composer and arranger, has been a vital figure in the Japanese music scene, contributing significantly to jazz, film, television, and commercials. Known for his innovative approach, Suzuki was deeply involved with influential artists like Terumasa Hino, Akira Ishikawa, and Jiro Inagaki during their most groundbreaking periods. His 1976 album High-Flying is a expertly crafted example to his forward-thinking creativity and remains a cornerstone of the WaJazz genre. Produced by Jiro Inagaki, High-Flying features a stellar lineup, including Shuichi Murakami on drums, Akira Okazawa on electric bass, and Masayoshi Takanaka on electric guitar. Suzuki's masterful compositions and arrangements shine through tracks like 'Screwdriver' and 'Scramble,' blending pre-fusion and crossover elements seamlessly. The album also includes contributions from Jun Fukamachi on keyboards and synthesiser, and Kayoko Ishu on vocals for select tracks. Recorded at Nippon Columbia Studio No. 2, this sought-after reissue captures the essence of Suzuki's groundbreaking work. Act fast to secure a copy of this essential masterpiece.
