It's great to see that in 2008 the venerable Seijin Noborikawa is still releasing albums now 77 years old. Not only that, he's still writing new tunes too, some included on this 14 track album. Other tunes are standard favourites and lesser known traditional tunes including a few 'kuduchi' lyrical stories about trips. Traditional style with sanshin, shima daiko (drum) and sanba (castanets) for accompaniment.
