In the 70s, Hiromasa Suzuki\’s synthfluence knew few bounds. A key architect of 70s jazz, the keyboardist\’s seventh LP High Flying heard him heighten his parabola, enlisting a killer ensemble including Jiro Inagaki, Jun Fukamachi, Shuichi Murakami and Kayoko Ishu to produce a dense cyclorama of cosmic funk and jazz fusion. Suzuki\’s arrangements are restless and daring, with opener \’High Flying\’ leading the way through pearly angelics and attention-grabbing title sequence vocals, before clincher bodyworkers like \’Screwdriver\’, \’Smash\’ and \’Out Of Focus\’ pitch heady reprogrammable synth patches against fiery rhythm sections. Having then already shaped defining moments for Terumasa Hino and Akira Ishikawa, Suzuki here pushed even further. Pressed and printed in Japan, and with due respect to original intent, no digital release planned.
