First solo album from talented pianist Jun Takase
Jun Takase started playing the piano at the age of 22, and has his roots in black music such as blues, soul, and R&B, and supports various artists and actively performs live mainly in Tokyo.
His first solo album was a superb album centered around his own piano solos.
A variety of expressions, from up-tempo to mid-tempo to slow ballads, are masterfully realized using only the piano.
The duo with his friend Shunsuke Tsunoda (bass) also played in harmony and without straining their shoulders.
He has created a free sound while adding depth to his playing.
(*The introduction text isJun TakaseQuoted from HP. )
I started working with Jun Takase in 2006 as an independent project.
Please participate in the music and painting collaboration event "Ongaku Gallery Live".
This jacket is a collaboration work for that event.
This is what I imagined when I heard Takase-san's song ``Ways.''
This time, I was asked to use it as the title of the album and on the jacket.
This is the realized album jacket.
In the life (path) that each person walks, there are many encounters,
This work expresses Crosspointo, where the roads just intersect.

After Richard Tee's death, Marvin joined forces with Jimmy Smith, who played keyboards for the staff, Tinker Barfield, who played bass for Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack, and Smith's wife, R&B singer Beverly Hanshaw. He relaxes and sings famous songs by Gaye, Ray Charles, Stevie, Otis Redding, and more.
I met Mr. Matsutani as a guest at an event I sponsored called "Ongiga LIVE" in Tokyo.
The first time I had someone sing the song with a picture of a soul musician that I drew in the background.
Through the pictures, I felt like I was getting closer to my favorite musician.
I feel so happy!

greeting
To commemorate my solo exhibition in Tokyo, I was asked to draw a CD jacket.
We held an event where artists gathered and performed.
Many musicians participated, and the audience was so packed that there was only standing room.and
I am very happy to be able to share this event with you.
For musicians, it becomes the face of the CD, which can be said to be the solidification of their soul.
I was able to be in charge of so many CD jackets,
I'm really happy that we were able to hold an event like this.
To all the musicians who participated and to the staff who took care of us
Most of all, thank you to all the customers who came.
