@morganfjp Agreed. This isn't Kodama at his best. Mind you, I thought the original version of this song was terrible too - Louis Armstrong's genius comes through on the Trad he did in the 1930's/40's. This is just a horrible cheezy ballad.
To me, Kodama sounds quite like late era Miles Davis - dark but beautiful.
Unbelievable the way the above posters are treating each other, Jesus, relaaaax people and let each have their own opinion. Mine is that Kodama is a very cool dub/reggae trumpeter, but in this song he is hideously flat, almost a semitone. That is rather uncool. Look for his other music elsewhere (with his old band Mute Beat) and enjoy how cool Japanese reggae can be. Peace, folks!
Who cares what you think. The fact remains he is one of the leading trumpet players in the world, noted alongside Chet Baker. If you don't like it, piss off! As a trumpet fan you should know what dub is, but it seems you don't. You don't like it, so fuck off!
He is one of the worlds top trumpeters, and is giving respect to another great trumpeter, louis armstrong! He is not playing jazz trumpet, he playing dub trumpet. This performance is amazing, beautiful for any trumpet fan!
