Japanese keyboard legend Jun Fukamachi,s Long awaited hard-to-get CD "Jun Fukamachi & The New York All Stars Live"was reissued at last in 2009. At this stage my vinyl was well worn so pleased to see this issued! It was a live recording in Tokyo Japan in September of 1978 with all star dream band from New York City all americans jazz fusion artists. The sound of the band is similar to Arista Allstars who recorded "Blue Monreux" album, but the quality of the performance is much better in this Japanese live album.The band is a who,s who of jazz Fusion giants..Awesome!
