Customer Reviews:

Takanaka, the best guitarist in the world?.......2005-04-18

This 1982 album is awesome! As with a lot of these japanese albums, there are a few "quirky" tracks but if you like full-on jazz fusion guitar, this is the business! There are a couple of tracks that will blow you away! Definitely recommended.Take care
though, I gather that his albums are normally more rock orientated.

Takanaka's one of the best.......2003-11-18

This album is pretty sofisticated compared to his fomer ones and one of my favorite Takanaka albums. Although they are all good, his other albums before this one are of more rock-taste and energetic like kids in their teens. However this one, Saudade came out as one that's oriented more for adults. As you can imagine for its title, famous Brasilian phrase meaning the feeling of slight saddness from missing something, this album is full of "saudade". Just lower the light and sit in a comportable sofa with a glass of wine in your hand and listen to the CD.

I can guarantee that you wo'nt regret buying this CD, if you like guitar instrumentals.
