Masayoshi Takanaka = Masayoshi Takanaka

Masayoshi Takanaka's "Jolly Jive" is a quintessential slice of late '70s Japanese City Pop. This isn't just music; it's a feeling of cruising down a sun-drenched highway. Takanaka's signature funky guitar work is at its absolute best here, mixing smooth jazz fusion, disco, and rock into an irresistibly groovy and uplifting package. The album's vibrant energy and impeccable musicianship make it a cornerstone of the genre.
