Capsule review: Maki Asakawa - Blue spirit blues (1972)


Ersatz blues and pre-war jazz from '70s Japan. Hard to tell if it's sung in English or Japanese. So why listen to it now? It's beautifully odd, for one. And emotionally it hits home more often than not. If you've ever felt like life is a bad translation, this is for you.
