Tadao Sawai - Jazz Rock Koto- Japanese folk songs (LP 1973 RCA - CD , 2020 Mr Bongo-Promo) - Rare Japanese Jazz Fusion (FLAC 252MB)

Forget the ROCK title on the cover, this album is a fusion of Jazz & Japanese music...Extremely rare album featuring the giants of japanese fusion & top artists from the home grown folk instrumentalists i.e. The "KOTO" & " SHAKUHACHI" blending a mixture of incredible fusion. An incredibly beautiful album with an all star japanese line up.
