Masayoshi Takanaka is a legendary artist. Most people know him from “Beleza Pula” (and the video where he plays a giant surfboard guitar), but this song — and so many others from his album “Seychelles” — is just a joy to listen to.

this man is funky as hell and this kind of jazz fusion has been scratching an itch so damn hard recently
Just go listen to “OH! TENGO SUERTE” on some nice speakers and you will understand

this man is absolutely legendary. if you enjoy japanese jazz/funk fusion, surfboards, star wars, or just straight swagger, Takanaka’s your guy. the 70s musician has that of a cult following– for reference, last week he announced a single show at the Wiltern in Los Angeles with presale tickets going on sale for this Friday October 4th... but tell me why my friend went through LENGTHS to somehow snag tickets on October 1st, which ended up selling out nearly the entire venue, with the $300 pit tickets being the only ones left.
even if you don’t like the music, his signature surfboard guitar should get you fucking itching to see him live. i would highly recommend his 1977 album “BRASILIAN SKIES”, which includes STAR WARS SAMBA. it’s exactly what it sounds like: a samba rendition of the Star Wars Theme! the man has entire instagram fan-pages dedicated to that of a single album cover in which he’s skydiving over the vast blue sea. jubilantly, at that. i can’t wait to see him in March 2025, long live Takanaka!

I’ve really been falling into early 2000s nostalgia recently. This song is so dreamlike and airy.

One of my all-time favorite smells, especially when paired with the smell of oil.
