    :: Pe'z
    Released just four months after the live album 'Realive Tour 2002', 
    five-track EP 'Hanasaku Don Bla Go!' is another example of Pe'z's 
    Japanese pop-like melodies on feisty beat. The album is more 
    rock-leaning than any of their previous albums and full of confidence. 
    Highlights include their collaboration with Tsugaru Shamisen player 
    Hiromitsu Agatsuma on 'Kamomega Tonda Hi', a cover of '70s hit by 
    Machiko Watanabe. The combination of fast 8-beat drums, trumpet and 
    Shamisen provide a thrilling conclusion to the set.

    A Day In New York - Tribute to Jobim and Brazilian Music 30 May, 2003  
     
     In response to many fans who were impressed by 'Casa', the tribute 
    album to Antonio Carlos Jobim', the sequel 'A Day In New York' was just 
    released from Morelenbaum2/Sakamoto.
    Brazilian cellist Jacques Morelenbaum and his wife, vocalist Paula and 
    noted Japanese pianist/composer Ryuichi Sakamoto teamed up last year for 
    tribute album 'Casa', on which the trio performed songs by Antonio 
    Carlos Jobim. All songs were recorded in the house of the late bossa 
    nova master. Released only in Japan at first, 'Casa' then saw the 
    international release due to great response from fans in US, France and 
    Jobim's homeland, Brazil.
    The three artists joined again this time in New York to record live 
    songs by Jobin and other classic Brazilian tunes. The result is 'A Day 
    In New York', which was just released internationally, two months 
    earlier than Japanese release. The set features such Jobin's classics 
    'Desafinado' and 'Insensatez' as well as 'Chage De Saudade'.
