And in case you didn't know, "Nihon Daiko" is the name of the ensemble, not a single person.

01. Hokkai-Bayashi (4:34)

02. Tancho-Bayashi (3:42)

03. Dai-Genyo (5:39)

You may be awed, you may be thrilled, you may be unimpressed by this 1998 release.  But it is interesting at least ONCE through!  For the life of me, I dno't know what makes Track 7 "serious" and Track 8 "festival."

Can you clue me in?

The Japanese Drums

See you on Monday.  I think we may have a month of soundtracks, if I can scrape enough together.

STAR TREK The Movies Sound Effects

You may not be able to listen straight through, but if you're a Trek listener, you'll get a lot of memory flashbacks.  Track #35 might be considered a bonus track since you will see it isn't listed on the CD rear (I left the CD rear art that way).

See you Thursday!
