AnalogNow
If you appreciate the analog sound - like we do - with its wide audio band and fine detail, played on a well adjusted turntable, you may find records of your liking here: good repertoire, good to perfect, clean pressings, beautiful performances, and maybe an occasional find. But there are of course also the lesser perfect, old items which can give a lot of joy to the collector. And an occasional CD.
We started collecting records many years ago. But in the last two decades our collections really expanded. When buying records, we always checked carefully if they were in good shape. Each individual record was checked. The records should be at least Excellent to Near Mint, preferably Near Mint to Mint. Only for exceptional artists or in case of a rare recording the grade Very Good Plus was excepted. This is not a shop, but a private seller with an extremely large collection. In most cases we would not sell the record(s) offered here if we did not have as good a copy ourselves.

This is a very interesting record of the Japanese contemporary composer Takashi Yoshimatsu who is as famous as Tohru Takemitsu.
The Japanese instruments played on this Lp are named Shakuhachi (bamboo flute), Sangen (samisen) and drums.
Sangen is not the same as Koto but is the same as Samisen.
The titles of the music are a combination of poetic words and old Japanese language which is seldom used now. The music has a strong meditative character.
Side A:
1. Shingetsu ( Moon in the heart) by Wadatsumi-Douso
2. Three of Shinado (Wind) by Takashi Yoshimatsu
a. Saimon (Popular ballad) 'Upward to the wind'
Side B:
Three of Shinado(Wind) by Takashi Yoshimatsu (continued from side A)
b. Kazagiri 'Direction of the wind'
c. Dances 'Downward to the wind'
The music is very well recorded. The sound of the bamboo flute is very attractive because of its complex and full character. The music is at times meditative and at times dramatic (if that is the appropriate word).
