Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio What A Wonderful World (2 LP)

Venus Masterpiece Collection Limited Edition 180g Vinyl Double LP!
This recording by the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio was made on January 24, 2013 at Sony Music Studios in Tokyo. Just one day earlier, the Japanese pianist had recorded another ten tracks together with Hiroshi Kagawa on bass and Toshio Osumi on drums, which were released under the title Gentle Blues.
Since his stunning debut in 1974 with the world-famous audiophile recordings for the Three Blind Mice label, Japanese pianist Tsuyoshi Yamamoto has built a career that now spans four decades. His 2013 trio album What a Wonderful World follows his previous release Gentle Blues, his first recording for Venus Records in 14 years.
In fact, these 12 tracks were recorded on the day after 10 tracks on Gentle Blues were recorded. It is remarkable that Yamamoto and his trio recorded enough material for two releases in two consecutive days, but then again, he is a veteran pianist who doesn't like to repeat himself and prefers to record everything in a single take.
Venus LPs are pressed only once. After the first edition has been sold, the titles will be removed from the catalogue. Collectors should therefore consider buying in good time.
