Terumasa Hino

• GATEFOLD VINYL EDITION

Rare and rich contents from 1970s Japanese jazz which is now gathering global attention, originally released on Terumasa Hino's private label Love Records and distributed by a Japanese major label.

Representing "Ode To Workman" from J Jazz : Deep Modern Jazz From Japan 1969-1984 released on BBE, in his session with local NY musicians, Peace And Love along with three other reissues are so important pieces in 1970s independent jazz.

After his return to Japan, Terumasa Hino formed a new band to go further, grouping together Hideo Ichikawa, Kiyoshi Matsumoto, and Hino to add to Reggie Workman and Teruo Nakamura. Terumasa Hino's sensitive and wild play with his one-horn is mind blowing. "Gengon" is powerful and graceful, white "Peace And Love" is deep and full of beauty -- these two songs show Hino's fulfillment at this moment.
