Takashi Hirayasu & Bob Brozman - Jin Jin/Firefly


This album was the product of an somewhat unusual collaboration. Okinawan koto player (among other things) and an American guitarist one day decided to record this album. Bob Brozman seems to be a totally bros man going around the world and playing with various people. This particular record is perhaps the best collaboration that I've heard from this guy.

Essentially it's one of those albums that makes you feel good. It feels like as if these two guys just met on the street and started jamming, playing solos and singing. Singing is done by Takashi and are fitting this record perfectly while most of the solos are from mister Brozman. All of the songs are catchy three to four minute jolly good melodies and merry vocals. It's simple and effective, just what folk should be.
