The long-awaited second release of big band jazz arranged and produced by Masanori Sasaji. As with the previous album “BIRDLAND” (released in November 2000), many famous jazz songs are revived with new arrangements backed by top-class session musicians from LA. This time, former Toto member Joseph Williams is appointed as the vocalist. He will sing “LUSH LIFE” and “SUMMERTIME”. Participating musicians include PETER ERSKINE, JIMMY JOHNSON, PAUL JACKSON Jr, LENNY CASTRO, LARRY WILLIAMS, DAVE CARPENTER, BILL REICHENBACH, and others, forming the world’s best big band. The leader of the band is JERRY Hey, as in the previous album. This time, an audience will be mobilized to the studio (CAPITOL STUDIOS LA) to directly record the live atmosphere in 2ch.
