[About the Label] East Wind is a groundbreaking jazz label that started in 1975 through the complete cooperation of Ai Music (at the time) and Nippon Phonogram (at the time). For about five years, they produced albums not only of Japanese musicians such as Masahiko Kikuchi, Sadao Watanabe, and Terumasa Hino, but also of musicians who were creatively active in the world jazz scene at the time. Beyond the quality of the performance, the artwork, created by top designers and photographers, was a fresh take on the image of jazz albums up to that point, and had a significant impact on subsequent record production. This work captures the footsteps of Lennie Tristano, a spiritual pillar of the Cool Jazz movement, during the 1950s and 60s. From early trio performances such as "Pastime (You Go to My Head)" and "Ju Ju (Indiana)" to the title track, a piano solo recorded at his home, it fully captures the essence of this innovative artist. Winner of the Swing Journal Jazz Disc Award [Editorial Planning Award]
