    Hisaaki Kanzaki and Yoshihiro Naruse (as well as Casiopea) formed Kanzaki On The Road, a group that became a leading force behind Japan's fusion boom. In 1988, Kanzaki teamed up with Russ Freeman and The Rippingtons to release the album "KANZAKI". A few years ago, Michael White (from the George Benson and David Sanborn band) recorded Kanzaki's composition "So Far Away". Around that time, Kanzaki gained widespread acclaim as a composer when his album title tune hit ninth place on the US jazz charts (radio and records).

    I'm a huge Rippingtons fan. This is just absolutely amazing, thank you for uploading this! (Loving the album cover too. It's exciting seeing Jazz Cat in a different style)

    I can hear “Kilimanjaro” era Rippingtons in this! It’s cool to hear them in this project!

      Absolutely! It's that undistinguishable sound we all know and love from them Ripps... Kilimanjaro, Curves Ahead, and Welcome to the st James Club. What a lovely transition to the early 90s vibe!

    Kanzaki's other two albums(not the lemon one) are among my top. I was going to buy this and upload it, but you beat me to it. Thank you so much, man.

      We need a vaporwave mix of rippingtons with Thomas Sowell's top amazing quotes like "The textbooks are getting more and more watered down and the original text is not being used anymore like the federalist".

      Title names of these albums, please; I'd like to look into them, too. I am a major Rippingtons fan.

      @@catwhispurrer137 One is Long Romantic Road and the other, is Little Road Gang. Very good Saxaphone work. Great thing is that they are not a bunch of cover songs, unlike this one.
