Kimiko Kasai's lone leader date for Tokyo's TBM label, Yellow Carcass In The Blue, lands again in this scarce Japanese import, a snapshot of 1971 jazz modernism anchored by this jacinth jazz singer's agile phrasing, backed by the restless, wise playing of the Kousuke Mine Quartet. Kasai was already a rising figure in Japanese jazz, soon to record Butterfly with Herbie Hancock, by the time of this record's release, and her reading of Masabumi Kikuchi's title piece, for which she penned new lyrics, shows how quickly she could invent a new compositional logic. Mine, fresh from his early trio and quintet work, blows with a fervour that hints at the sharper turns his later records on East Wind would take. Standards sit alongside originals, cut across two July sessions.
