A self-taught pianist from Hokkaido who came to the instrument relatively late, he burst onto the scene with Scenery (1976) and Mellow Dream (1977) — two albums of such lyrical authority and harmonic depth that they have since become cornerstones of the genre worldwide. After years away from recording as a leader, Fukui channelled the full weight of his experience into A Letter from Slowboat, captured live on 25 and 26 January 2015 at the Sapporo jazz club he had founded with his wife Yasuko in 1995 — a venue that became the beating heart of his later career, a place where he played night after night, honing his craft in front of devoted audiences.Backed by his trusted rhythm section — bassist Takumi Awaya and drummer Ittetsu Takemura — Fukui moves through a programme that balances jazz standards with original material, bringing a seasoned touch to Stella by Starlight, a raw spiritual intensity to Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen, and a bebop fire to Chasin' the Bird and Soultrane. The performances are intimate yet commanding, the trio locked in with the ease of musicians who have shared countless hours on the same stage. Released in 2016 on Sapporo City Jazz — the year Fukui passed away — the album stands as his farewell letter: to his club, to Hokkaido, and to the music he devoted his life to. This 180g heavyweight pure vinyl pressing brings that irreplaceable document to the turntable with the sonic weight and presence it deserves.【収録内容】[LP - SIDE A]1. Sonora2. Stella by Starlight3.
