DAVID SYLVIAN : Manafon

JapanのDavid Sylvianの2009年名作再発です！！
デレク・ベイリーとの『Blemish』もかなり良かったですが、この『Manafon』もかなりいいですよ。
キース・ロウ、ジョン・ティルバリー、フェネス、エヴァン・パーカー、大友良英、中村としまる、サチコM、秋山徹次ほか、ロンドン、ウィーン、東京の当時のインプロ強者たちとの共演！！
ミニマルなインプロサウンドと歌が見事にハマった素晴らしい内容は言うまでもありませんね。
180g重量盤2LP。
お見逃しなく。

「『Blemish』の6年後にリリースされた本作はロンドン、ウィーン、東京の３か所からEvan Parker, Keith Rowe, Christian Fennesz, Sachiko M, Otomo Yoshihide, John Tilbury等が参加してレコーディングが行われた。180g重量盤2LP」
