Viashal
Very good disco/jazz/funk album from Hiroshima. The koto gives the music a nice edge and allows it to sound less dated than it otherwise might. I don't know where J-Town is, but I want to go there. The title track features a laid-back rock groove and a nice guitar solo. The sax solos, while not John Coltrane, are still pretty good and they propel the nighttime disco atmosphere, especially on "Echoes." The pace relaxes considerably on the more cinematic "Shinto" and finally, some pleasant vocal harmonies close out "All I Want." The last track is a bit more dated. All in all, this is possibly the best of their albums.
