Her singing is OK but the slide guitar is the greatest. A "gamechanger" from Finland.

Superfly flew by long ago. All their stuff was this good. Singer Shiho Oshi continues under that name but it's completely different. The guitar player was the rock of the band and he retired.

They were a phenomenal success. Shiho still fills arenas with her current MOR style.

They have nothing to do with the Curtis Mayfield Superfly. It's means flying superly.

An instant classic. And so young! This could be a first.

 
Violin



There are more violin prodigies than you would think. Well in a world of seven billion people there had ought to be seven like this.
 
I might be able to see Gacharic Spin for real in ten days. By sheer luck they are performing close to the out of the way place I'm staying south of Tokyo, the day after I get there. Not sold out yet!



To abate scalping, tickets cannot be purchased except while in Japan. You have to go through vetting, order a SIM card online, either have it mailed to you or pick it up on a designated day at a designated outlet, show your original passport, activate the card, then register and order the ticket online. I suspect that only Westerners are allowed to do this. In Singapore there was a scandal about Taylor Swift tickets. I guess Singapore is the epicenter of online scalping and it's hard to block your own citizens. A bill was introduced in the legislature to get this under control. Card companies are in on it too. Once I had a card blocked for just trying to buy a ticket from outside Japan.

I went to a Gacharic Spin concert once to buy a ticket at the gate. They weren't sure what to do with me. What strange behavior is this? They decided to take my money then let me enter last.

At the time Gacharic Spin announced they were breaking up. It appears they got jobs and found out that that was even worse than music. That theme shows up in their art over and over.



So they reformed and got serious. The new frontperson and drummer are a big improvement, I want to hear them again.

Their recent songs with vocals are okay...
and these probably help them get the attention they deserve.

However, I much preferred their earlier instrumental works, which were raw and unique.

(list of Asterism instrumentals from YouTube)

Asterism & Marty Friedman

I like the intro paying homage to Megadeth/MartyFriedman's Hangar 18.
 
With a special mention for that hot harmonica solo.



A jazz hot revival? Could be.
