LP pressed on blue vinyl Celebrating the 50th anniversary of his solo debut Packed with killer summer tunes Newly remastered with high-resolution audio sourced from the original master tapes Cut at Abbey Road Studios in London
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of his solo debut, popular works from the Kitty Years by Japan’s legendary super guitarist "Masayoshi Takanaka" are newly remastered.
Riding the recent global Japanese fusion boom, "Masayoshi Takanaka" continues to enjoy surging popularity not only in Japan but also across Europe and the United States. Using high-resolution audio sourced from the original master tapes, these titles were remastered and cut at Abbey Road Studios in London. All three releases were remastered and cut by Alex Wharton, one of Abbey Road’s leading engineers. Each title is released on color vinyl that expands upon the imagery of the original jacket artwork.
Opening with the line “It’s so hot! I want to go somewhere!”, the album immediately transports listeners to a tropical paradise with a reggae-driven opening track. From start to finish, Takanaka’s glossy, soaring guitar work creates an endless summer atmosphere. Packed with summer killer tunes such as the fully Latin-flavored "CUBAN HEELS" featuring Orquesta Del Sol, and the electric, funk-driven "DANCING TO CAT GUITAR". (Original release date: July 10, 1984)
