Description
[Machine Translation] JUDE's long-awaited third album is a journey of Kenichi Asai, interspersed with 12 scenes. 3 songs recorded in Hawaii from January 2003 feature the powerful and straightforward drumming of Junji Ikehata, while the other 9 songs feature the groovy and supple drumming of Kyoichi Shiino, who is also currently playing live. The other nine songs feature the groovy and flexible drums of Kyoichi Shiino, who also plays drums live, deeply intertwined with Keiichi Watanabe's undulating bass lines. In "ARABIA" and "New Wind," Aya Tamaki's violin enhances the grandeur of the song and leads us into a delicate and dramatic world that transcends time and borders. In "House of Leaves," UA's chorus, with which she has not performed together since AJICO, floats like the wind around Kenichi Asai's vocals. Dream or reality... Kenichi Asai adventures through the landscape of an everlasting journey. Sometimes his songs become a ray of light, and sometimes they turn into beautiful crystals floating on the surface of the water. This work, overflowing with love, depicts a grand scale and is sure to give a huge impression to many people. Re-release.

Description in Japanese
Highway Child / JUDE
辿り着きたい場所なんてないんだ・・・ JUDE待望の3rdアルバムは12の場面が散りばめられた浅井健一の旅の風景。2003年1月から録音された本作のハワイ録音の3曲は、パワフルかつストレートな池畑潤二の切れのあるドラムスで、それ以外の9曲は現在ライブでも叩いている椎野恭一のグルービーでしなやかなドラムスを聴くことができ、それに渡辺圭一のうねるようなベースラインが深く絡みついている。「ARABIA」「新しい風」では玉城亜弥のバイオリンが曲の壮大さを引き立て、時代や国境を超えた繊細でドラマティックな世界へと誘ってくれる。また「葉っぱのおうち」ではAJICO以来の共演となるUAのコーラスが風の如く浅井健一のボーカルに絡みつき浮遊する。夢か現実か・・・永遠に続く旅の風景を冒険する浅井健一。その唄は時に一筋の光となり、時に水面に浮かぶ美しい結晶へと変化する。愛に溢れた本作は、壮大なスケールを描き、多くの人々に巨大な感動を与えるはず。再リリース。
