Sumiko Yoseyama, a jazz singer from Okinawa. In 1955, when she was a first year in high school, she made her debut as a jazz vocalist at a club on a U.S. military base, and although her dream of moving to Tokyo did not come true, however her uncommonly Japanese singing ability was recognized after several performances in Tokyo, despite that, the debut album of 1983 was released late. Backed by Kohsuke Mine, Tsuyoshi Yamamoto, Tsutomu Okada, Hiroshi Murakami, Yoshihiro Nakagawa, and others, the album is full of tunes that range from listenable to rhythmical. Recommend to listen to her voice , which they all say move their hearts once.
沖縄出身のジャズシンガー与世山澄子。1955年、高校1年生の時に米軍基地内のクラブでジャズボーカリストとしてデビューし、その後も上京の夢を持ちつつ叶わずも何度か行われた東京での公演を機にその日本人離れした歌唱力は認められ、遅ればせながらリリースされた83年のデビューアルバム。峰厚介、山本剛、岡田勉、村上寛、中川喜弘などがバックを固め聴かせる曲からリズミカルな曲まで充実の内容。心揺さぶると揃って口にするというその歌声じっくり聞いてみて下さい。
A3 - The Man I Love
A4 - Don't Explain
B2 - Love Come Back To Me
B3 - East Of The Sun (West Of The Moon)
