Fukui, Ryo - My Favourite Tune (Colourless 180g Vinyl)

Ryo Fukui- My Favourite Tune (Colourless 180g Vinyl)

Deeper, more vivid—this is Ryo Fukui’s first and only solo piano album, featuring masterpieces such as “Nord”, composed during his journey northward.

This third album by Ryo Fukui arrived a full 17 years after Mellow Dream, marking his first and only solo piano recording. Alongside signature pieces like “Scenery” and “Mellow Dream”, the album includes “Voyage” and “Nord”, both written during a trip toward the northern regions, as well as “Nobody’s”, a piece imbued with Fukui’s deep respect for his mentor Barry Harris. The selection is nothing short of a delight for fans.

Here, the depth and weight Fukui cultivated as a bebop pianist blend seamlessly with the profound “Hokkaido sensibility” that had always resided within him. It is a masterpiece that truly deserves to be passed down through time.
