*2024 stock* "I think we've created something that can be called 'Japanese jazz.' I want to take it to the world." With these words, Oki Itaru left Japan in 1974. This album is a live recording of a concert he held just before leaving for France. The sound, which is filled with the achievements he had made up to that point and his determination for the future, is still vivid when listened to today. This album captures one of Oki's peaks.
