About

With his young and talented Sound L.T.D., drummer Takeshi Inomata heralds the arrival of the golden age of jazz rock in high spirits. Inomata, who led the Japanese jazz scene with his precise stick work and musicality with an eye on the times, formed Sound L.T.D. at the end of the 1960s, influenced by the brass rock music that was flourishing at the time.

He said: “I wanted to fuse jazz and rock and bring together young musicians to play music with vitality. I want this group to be a group with a large scale that is not confined to the small frame of modern jazz”. Their first album, Sounds Of Sound L.T.D., released in 1970, became their masterpiece. It is full of energy and enthusiasm, starting with the “Theme-Mustache” tune, which has become one of the most beloved and iconic songs of the band. — (via Label)
