Take Ikkan carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. While no new Reibo Aoki album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1997 tour in Asia. Now signed to Reibo Aoki’s Blue Note Records, the title track from second album “Take Ikkan” leads Reibo Aoki’s back-to-school campaign. Another great offering from Reibo Aoki.
Reibo Aoki is hitting on all cylinders in .
Listening to Chikurai Goshou 1. Funda you can hear that Reibo Aoki has still amazing chemistry with band members. All of songs on Take Ikkan and have something to say letting alone Chikurai Goshou 2. Soutake. Chikurai Goshou 3. Kyokurai is the album’s biggest hit, I think. Although Chikurai Goshou 4. Hachiku is very melodic it is far from sad. Reibo Aoki sings Chikurai Goshou 5. Meian in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. A fantastic track full of wonder. Only one song from Take Ikkan named Zangetsu really got me. Sarasi hits the heart. This is one of those songs that musicians strive to write and create.
