This is an ambitious work by Hidefumi Toki, with a unique organization of "saxophone + 2 guitars". The only sidemen are Ryo Ogihara and May Inoue, the two guitarists who run at the top of the scene. Hidefumi Toki runs lightly on the dynamic groove they create. Please enjoy the unique and original sound.
