Masayuki Takayanagi's 1963 Ginparis Session was an early flashpoint in Japanese modern jazz. Recorded live at the Ginparis club in Tokyo, the guitarist assembled a sharp unit under the Shinseiki Ongaku Kenkyujo banner with drummer Masahiko Togashi, pianist Masabumi Kikuchi and bassist Hideto Kanai. The set mixes standards with exploratory edges: 'Greensleeves' is a jagged meditation on the English broadside ballad, its fractured lyricism later cited as a breakthrough moment for Takayanagi's career; 'Nardis' and 'If I Were A Bell' are stretched into tense, searching frameworks; closer 'Obstruction' hints at the free directions Takayanagi would pursue more fully in the late 60s. Issued here on LP, this session captures the ferment of a scene beginning to move beyond imitation and into a distinctly Japanese jazz vernacular.
