Description:
"Stone stage" is called "Ishibutai".
"Ishibutai" is an old tomb.
About 30 stones are piled up, and weight is 2,300t.
The description remains in the oldest history book 'Nohonshoki' in Japan.
Perhaps, it is presumed the grave of "SOGANO-UMAKO".
It is a grave of about 600 years at the Christian era.
It is in Nara Prefecture Asuka-mura.
As for Asuka-mura, a lot of palaces and historic sites are excavated.
It is called, "Hometown of the mind of Japan".
The wind from the great antiquity blows here.

Excellent work, as always Tadashi. I like how this is contemplative and laid back, but also really bold and colorful. Your guitar playing is really superb. This is one of the coolest new tunes I've heard in a long time!
Tadashi Togawa
Very warm word.
I wish to express my gratitude!

This is an excellent piece of Jazz Fusion my friend.
I loved every second of this.
The hints of Mr Z. and his unique sounds are not lost on my ears.
'The Winds of Antiquity' blow fair.
Take care.

...I receive a musical and a cultural lesson... And I was just reading about early Japanese solstice celebrations this morning, along with other ancient solstice traditions from around the world...
As Utah Phillips used to say, "The past didn't go anywhere."
In this tune, my ear is drawn to the crossovers from the guitar playing to the synth playing, and how smoothly these changes occur...the bass playing, too... The timbres are distinctive, and yet they all fit well together, and their phrasing suits the interplay and the tune...
I like this tune more and more as it goes along...
Always a pleasure, Tadashi, sir...

A wonderful listen as always my friend! I've been playing with some more adventurous bass and drum parts in midi lately (just for fun), and really enjoyed listening to the way you've put this together.
A real master at work! Great sounds.
Best Autumn wishes from Australia.

story value to your wonderful tunes.
Your sense of rhythm is impeccable. Lots of fun, the guitar comes out crystal clear with lots and lots of very cool jazz fusion. At least in my understanding. Love that almost balloon scratching sound. I heard something like that when Bola Sete performed on a festival record. Nice to hear that again. But you add so much more.
Again Tad! WAy to go!
I humbly bow before your artistry Tadashi-san! This is surely your OPUS MAGNUM! My only complaint is that it's too short! Ha ha ha...
Be well friend!
