About

- The Analog Vault // Essential Listening -

The debut album of pianist Ryo Fukui is undoubtedly one of the most important Japanese jazz records ever created. Marked by the characteristic dexterity of the self-taught prodigy, Fukui combined modal, post-bop and cool jazz influences to craft a smooth jazz masterpiece that Bill Evans would be proud of.

Featuring refreshing interpretations of old standards such as “Willow Weep For Me,” “Autumn Leaves” and “I Want To Talk About You”, alongside a bevy of brilliant original arrangements, Scenery is a majestic showcase for the Fukui trio’s technical virtuosity and compositional elegance. As underappreciated as this tasteful and textured album has been since its 1977 release, those in the know revere Scenery as a monumental triumph. A quintessential release for all Ryo Fukui fans. — The Analog Vault
