''Live at the Village Vanguard'' was the third and first live album by Japanese Pianist Junko Onishi, released on September 21, 1994 in Japan. It was released on May 2, 1995 by Blue Note Records. This album is the first live record of the Japanese jazz musician in the Village Vanguard. ==Reception== The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated, " This is a memorable set. When pianist Junko Onishi performs songs from the likes of Charles Mingus ("So Long Eric"), John Lewis ("Concorde"), and Ornette Coleman ("Congeniality"), she interprets each of the tunes as much as possible within the intent and style of its composer. "So Long Eric," although performed by her trio, gives one the impression at times that several horns are soloing together; in addition, polyrhythms are utilized part of the time, Ornette's "Congeniality" has a strong pulse but fairly free improvising, while "Concorde" sounds both distinguished and full of blues feeling, like John Lewis himself. Onishi's exploration of "Blue Skies" uplifts the warhorse through the use of colorful vamps and an altered melody, she takes the slow ballad "Darn That Dream" as a medium-tempo stomp, and her original, "How Long Has This Been Goin' On," is brooding but not downbeat and swings hard without losing its serious nature. There is not a weak selection in the bunch and the interplay between Onishi, bassist Reginald Veal, and drummer Herlin Riley is quite impressive.".〔Scott Yanow (Allmusic Review ) accessed November 11, 2015〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Live at the Village Vanguard (Junko Onishi album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
