This great groundbreaking album is one my top 10 albums of all genres of music. It ranks right up there with Count Basie Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, even rock and roll such as the rolling stones, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and queen. I first listened to this when I was living in Tokyo Japan and attending School at Sophia University. I had a little Toyota two seater sports car-S800. I alway listenwd to this cd while driving in downton Akasaka and Shinjiku
