RYO FUKUI Scenery (Official UK/EU 6-track vinyl LP reissue of the highly sought-after 1976 jazz masterpiece, mastered at Music Matters Berlin and Half Speed Cut by Rainer Maillard at Emil Berliner Studios, pressed on 150-gram audiophile quality black vinyl at Optimal. Picture sleeve with original cover artwork. Both sleeve and vinyl are in Near Mint condition)
TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
Unquestionably one of the most important Japanese jazz albums ever recorded, Scenery reveals Ryo Fukui as a miraculously brilliant self-taught pianist fusing modal, bop, and cool jazz influences for a very personal, dexterous and game-changing take on classic standards made famous by Bing Crosby and John Coltrane among others.
From It Could Happen To You and its serene and calm intro which magically flows into a jubilant and upbeat piece, to the out-of-this-world piano solo of Early Summer, or the incredible teamwork of Autumn Leaves where Fukui leads Satoshi Denpo (bass) and Yoshinori Fukui (drums) into groove heaven, every single note on the album oozes precision, confidence and flair and every single section slides seamlessly into one another, creating a supreme and elegant blend of jazz.
Often compared to McCoy Tyner or Bill Evans, Ryo Fukui was a genius in his own right, a true master of his craft whose perfectionism gave birth to some of the greatest music ever recorded. Scenery is his magnum opus and an absolute must-have.
The Hokkaido wizard-pianist followed Scenery with the soulful gem Mellow Dream in 1977. He then focused on improving his live skills, often performing at Sapporo’s Slowboat Jazz Club (which he co-founded with his wife Yasuko Fukui) and releasing 2 live albums. Ryo Fukui sadly passed away in March 2016, leaving behind a legacy of works that is sure to captivate jazz lovers for generations to come.
