*2023 stock* A great trio date that has Takehiro Honda working with Reggie Workman on bass and Motohiko Hino on drums an extremely great group that really takes off in this setting! The record is one of the freer sides from Honda at the time done in the more open, lyrical modes that were coming into prominence in Japan at the time although still with a strong sense of rhythm, as was common in all of his work. One track features Honda on electric piano but we're actually more partial to the acoustic numbers, as they burst out with a proud, righteous energy that's really great! Titles include "Jodo", "Lazy Dream", "The Way To Brooklyn", and "Second Country".
