The eagerly-awaited follow-up to his acclaimed 2021 album Blues For K, A Shade Of Blue captures Tsuyoshi Yamamoto leading a trio featuring bassist Hiroshi Kagawa and drummer Toshio Osumi. A well-balanced blend of timeless jazz standards (“Misty”), memorable pop tunes (“The Way We Were”) and striking original material (“Speed Ball Blues”), A Shade Of Blue is a stunning showcase for the pianistic brilliance of 76-year-old Yamamoto.

Great fidelity, wonderful dynamics. Thick, clear bass, with large drum sound and piano on the left. 3 man band so not any options for discrete instruments everywhere, but well done and recommended.
