Le Tres Jazz Club bring us more Japanese jazz in the shape of “Green Caterpillar” by Masaru Imada trio + 2. Led by Masaru Imada and his Fender Rhodes, the record opens with “ A Green Caterpillar”, a 11 minutes piece whose groove is somewhat reminiscent of Marc Moulin and his Placebo band. “A Straight Flash” continues along this line, while on “Blue Impulse” and “Spanish Flower” Masaru Imada uses the piano in a much more modal style. A true classic of mid seventies Japanese jazz.
