Fret to Fret

[Machine Translation] The first new album in 16 years, released in the 45th anniversary year of the band's debut. This is the fourth masterpiece in the same vein as the early masterpieces "Char", "have a wine" and "Thrill". The recording was done by Jun Sato (k) and Robert Brill (d), as in the first three albums, and is a remarkable album that Char himself says is his fourth album in a row (following the three albums from his debut). Char, who is an ongoing artist, is probably at his best right now. We hope you will enjoy the latest expression of this musician who has been pursuing his own expression as a top runner for about half a century since he first encountered the electric guitar.

デビュー45周年というアニバーサリー・イヤーに16年ぶりとなる新作。初期の名作『Char』、『have a wine』、『THRILL』に連なる4枚目のマスターピースが堂々完成!! レコーディングには初期3作品と同じく佐藤準 (k)、ロバート・ブリル (d)が参加しており、Char自身も「デビューからの3作品に連なる4枚目」と語る注目の1枚に仕上がっている。現在進行形の表現者であるCharは、今が最も旬ではないだろうか。エレクトリック・ギターに出会ってから約半世紀にわたり、トップ・ランナーとして自身の表現を追求し続けてきた音楽家の最新の表現を存分に堪能してほしい。
