Album Notes & Community Reviews
The acclaimed Japanese jazz pianist and composer crafted a remarkably slick, high-energy fusion record perfectly aligned with the era's glossy city pop aesthetics. 'All Right' is driven by sophisticated, heavily syncopated funk rhythms and Kikuchi's dazzling, virtuosic keyboard solos. It stands as a brilliant instrumental embodiment of the pristine studio sheen defining 1980s Tokyo nightlife.
