This recording was originally published in 2001 as ONE LIFE TO LIVE at ROPPONGI PIT INN 1991 which was recorded 2 years after his prior CD: MIDNIGHT SESSION / LIVE AT PAT'S N.Y.C.1989 published in 2019 and it's been out of print for a long time.

This is the reissued version with 3 unpublished tracks added. The music starts with fantastic fusion to some smooth jazz, then finally the music goes to fired up tempo's be-bop. With these Japanese top class players like Hidefumi Toki, Ken Shima, Kenji Takamizu and Yuichi Togashiki & some others, all the members got so tight in pocket under the control of Shinobu & showing their best supporting skills to him in this live. This is truly an historical live recording on the Japanese jazz scene.

Gee-yeah! Records
