I Got The Feelin’ – James Brown In The ’60s

本当はもっと早くに載せたかったのですが、ここを更新する時間的・気分的余裕がなくて、こんなに遅くなってしまいました。それはさておき未見の方には文句なし、「これを観ずして死ねるか」レベルでおすすめです。。。

I wish I could have published this contents earlier, but unfortunately I didn’t have enough spare time to write it – i couldn’t feel relax and think of writing it either. Anyway, this video is definitely recommended for everyone who haven’t watched it yet . . . you should watch this video while you live in this present life.

Eddie’s Back on Stage – and I’ll be back shortly

(こちらでは長らく更新しておりませんが、今暫くお待ち下さいませ。。。)

Dear readers – sorry not to get this weblog updated often. It’s been about six months since I put my last article here. I’ve been very busy taking care of my lovely daughter while working at home and I hardly managed to publish articles here. Anyway here I go.

After all these years, one of my best friends and an awesome Hammond organ player Eddie Landsberg is back on stage (on Sunday, March 22, 2009 at the Organ Jazz Club in Numabukuro, Nakano, Tokyo, Japan) with young and talented Japanese sidemen (Kyohei Yamamoto / 山本恭平 on electric guitar, and Kazumasa Oyamada / 小山田和正 on drums). I believe the new Eddie Landsberg Trio has many bright possibilities, although they need some more rehearsals. Definitely this band sounds the best among all the past live sessions by Eddie.

2009/03/30 追記: こちら もあわせてご覧下さい。2008年、ついにオフィシャルリリースされました。本記事は2006年12月14日に書かれたものです。

Update (Mar. 30, 2009) : See also this entry – this live performance has been finally available as officially released DVD in 2008. This article itself was initially made public on Dec. 14, 2006.

もう100回以上は観たでしょうか。しかし 1回たりとも「見飽きた」と思わせぬ緊張度/怒涛の勢い/完成度を前に、毎度毎度腰を抜かされ感涙にむせぶばかり。一日も早く、オフィシャルな映像リリースが行われて欲しいと心から願うばかりです。

Probably I have watched this over a hundred of times, but because of the heavy tension, energy and perfection the film contains, I still have not get bored of watching – instead, every time I watch, I cannot help shed tears of gratitude. I sincerely hope from my heart, that the official release of this video is available as soon as possible . . .
