A Letter from Slowboat

by Ryo Fukui

supported by

Jamming Device A beautiful, more lounging finale to an incredible series of albums. Intimate, relaxed, and happy. Thank you, Mr. Fukui. And thank you to WRJ for a perfect pressing, touching liner notes, and a more than worthwhile project. Favorite track: Soultrane.

Tal Definitely not his strongest work but great listening for the morning Favorite track: Chasin' The Bird.

Scott One of the best jazz sets ever recorded ever! Favorite track: Sonora.

Austin Wakefield Happy to have gotten the test pressing.
