Product Description
First album from Remon Nakanishi gets a vinyl release, brought to you by the people behind Suzumeno Tears. Nakanishi is one of Japan's brightest stars of the minyo and bon odori music scene. Especially he has become known for Goshu Ondo from Shiga Prefecture, but on this groundbreaking album he sings Tohoku minyo from Northern Japan and Echigo Goze Uta, the songs of Edo period blind women singers. The songs are backed up by musicians playing drums, percussion, bass, erhu, electric bass, marimbas, trumpet, tuba, quenas, keyboards, guitars and more. Fantastic stuff.
