Years before Akira Kurosawa changed the face of cinema with such iconic works as Rashomon, Seven Samurai, and Yojimbo, he made his start in the Japanese film industry with four popular and exceptional works, created as World War II raged. All gripping dramas, those rare first films - Sanshiro Sugata; The Most Beautiful; Sanshiro Sugata, Part Two; and The Men Who Tread on the Tiger's Tail - are collected here and include a two-part martial arts saga, a portrait of female volunteers helping the war effort, and a kabuki-derived tale of deception. These captivating films are a glorious introduction to a peerless career.

Spyro Gyra - Dreams Beyond Control (1993) REPOST

Posted: 26 Sep 2014 10:19 AM PDT


Spyro Gyra - Dreams Beyond Control (1993)
Jazz | 1cd | EAC Rip | Wv + Cue + Log | covers
GRP 97432 | rel: 1993 | 415Mb

Spyro Gyra mostly sticks to their formula of danceable melodic music on this GRP release but there are a few temporary departures. The harmonica of the talented Howard Levy is used prominently on "Breakfast at Igor's," two different horn sections pop up on a few songs and there are a pair of throwaway pop vocals from Alex Ligertwood. However, longtime Spyro Gyra fans have little to fear for the solos of saxophonist Jay Beckenstein and vibraphonist Dave Samuels are predictably pleasant, the light funk rhythms push the ensembles and the band's sound remains distinctive, familiar and comfortable. ~Allmusic

Simon & Schuster | English | September 9, 2014 | ISBN: 1451699433 | 352 pages | azw, epub, lrf, mobi | 3,01 mb

I appreciated the dystopian concept that weather patterns have basically rendered everything south of Mississipi's northern border uninhabitable. He's not making any political statement, and there is no global warming plotline. It's a people story. It's a generally believable idea, and he carried it off with solid imagination.
