Product Details
Masayoshi Takanaka spent the late 1970s and early '80s quietly building one of the most distinctive catalogs in fusion guitar, blending American jazz-rock influences with a melodic sensibility that was entirely his own. His work from this era holds up as some of the most inventive guitar-forward music to come out of Japan, earning him a devoted following that has only grown as collectors worldwide have caught on.
This limited edition vinyl reissue is a must-have for fans of legendary Japanese guitarist Masayoshi Takanaka. Featuring remastered versions of the popular albums "T-WAVE," "alone," and "THE RAINBOW GOBLINS," the collection was crafted with meticulous care at Abbey Road Studios. The source material was high-resolution audio from the original master tapes, with top Abbey Road engineers like Alex Wharton (known for work with Paul McCartney and The Chemical Brothers) handling "T-WAVE" and "alone." Fan-favorite "THE RAINBOW GOBLINS" received the specialized half-speed mastering treatment from renowned engineer Miles Showell (who has worked with The Beatles and Queen). Pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl, this specific release of alone (implied based on the previous clear purple/T-WAVE context) comes on striking clear orange vinyl, combining premium audio quality with a collector-friendly presentation.
