Maki Asakawa - Darkness I (1995)

Maki Asakawa's collection of works from the early days to the present "DARKNESS" has been released in total, but the first of these is the disc 1, Toshinori Kondo, and books composed of works from the 1960s and 1970s. A dense 2-disc set called Disc 2 containing 80's jazz sessions with Toshiyuki Honda, Yosuke Yamashita, Bobby Watson and others. From the legendary debut work "The World of Maki Asakawa", "When the Dawn" and 4 other songs are recorded, but note that the sound effects of Shuji Terayama, which was included in the original version, have been cut. .. Although you can't hear "sometimes ...", the world expressed by its unique crouching voice and singing style is the blues itself, and you can feel the individuality that can be said to be the forerunner of alternative music in Japan.
