Description
Following on from their previous album "Midnight Sun" (SCLP1072), which was highly praised by jazz critics and audio magazines and sold out immediately after the first pressing, MOON (vo) and Tsuyoshi Yamamoto (p) are releasing a limited edition 10-inch LP (1/3 33 RPM) to celebrate Christmas! The eternal holiday standard "White Christmas" features Yamamoto's mellow piano and MOON's soft vocals, while the reverb-heavy arrangement of "The Christmas Song" further enhances the Christmas mood. The first track on side B is "Canadian Sunset," an unreleased track from the previous album. The rhythmic vocals match the lively Latin-style trio, making this a must-listen song that adds spice to the set list. In addition, "In the Middle of a Kiss" and "Autumn Leaves", which were exclusive to the "Midnight Sun" CD (SCOL1072) and SACD (SCOL1074), as well as the MOON original "Look to the Moon", are released on LP for the first time in this work! In addition to the different expressions of the songs on the A/B sides, the cute 10-inch format also gives a sense of playfulness that is reminiscent of a "gift". A glossy and high-quality Christmas album.
