• Horace Silver’s first tour of Japan in early 1962 left a deep impression on the pianist. As soon as he returned home, he began writing a series of pieces in which he attempted to combine “a Japanese feeling in the melodies with a Latin American feeling in the rhythms.” He dedicated the album “The Tokyo Blues,” recorded with his quintet in July of that year, to his ardent new fans in Japan.
