A deep and mysterious groove that makes you hesitate to surrender yourself. Kiyoshi Sugimoto is a guitarist who has sharply shot through the center of the times. Here is the highest point. Kiyoshi Sugimoto, a guitarist whom Terumasa Hino aspired to and Akira Ishikawa fell in love with. Their cutting-edge and diverse sounds have always been at the forefront of modern jazz and jazz-rock, and have sharply penetrated the center of the times. There is no doubt that this work 'Babylonian Wind' captures one of the peaks of that musical expression. Hideo Ichikawa's electric piano spreads out like ripples, Yoshio Ikeda's plump yet restrained bass, Motohiko Hino's drums with fine grain and strong propulsion, Takao Uematsu's saxophone that combines rusticity and luster, and a flash of light. Sugimoto's sharp guitar. From 'Babylonia Wind,' which seems to sway in the deep sea, to 'Hieroglyph,' which leaves a delicate and ephemeral afterglow, you will be amazed by the variety of expressions and the depth of the groove.
