Kaita(1996)
The Japanese band formed with 6 menber centering on vocalist Kaita Nose.
I heard that they sent a demonstration tape to the overseas VIP producer one by one in case of every debut...,
Maurice White ,one of them, gave an interest in them.
We can see the pictures of Maurice White and members at the leaflet of this album.
Bill Meyers also jioned the production.
Maurice White and Bill Meyers concernd iwith Kaita in arrangement of all songs of this album.
But most of these songs are In Japanese taste.
I didn't get away to like so much except for 1 song.
But I infer that there are talented musicians because it's to the extent it's captivated by Maurice.
Only "Looking For Love"was the composition of Maurice and Bill.
Only this song fits my taste as expected, and I like very much!
Maurice White also participated in a background vocal in this song!
But I could't distinguish between Maurice's voice well in this song.
1. メロディ (Melody)
2. 寒い夜 (Cold Night)
3. ルッキング・フォー・ラヴ (Looking For Love)
4. 二十歳のソウル (Soul Of 20's)
5. 月の夜でもレゲエっぽく (Play Like Reggae Even In A Night In Moon)
6. いい感じ (Good Feeling)
7. 笑わずにきいて (Listen To Me Without Laughing)

Faces
Faces / Earth, Wind & Fire (1980)
A masterpiece of 2 record gang!
But a CD has a capacity larger than a record, so it's in 1 by a CD.
This album got at most 10th place of all-American album chart and Golden disc acquisition.
Maurice White's comment was introduced in the liner notes that
Volume as total of 15 songs of 2 set made it possible to gather great music of various approach in the theme of people.
I suppose they would like to play free from all cares to the sky because their former album was the composition which made the disco sound the center .
They didn't stick to the fashion at that time, I guess.
They seem to have recorded with the ability from except for members in more aggressively .
By the way "Faces" of an album title song...
This is to start with Japanese music of folk customs ,
But the rhythm isn't incongruous through the whole song, and it's novel and also cool!.
It's wonderful choice for Japanese.people

Salongo
Salongo / Ransey Lewis (1976)
I heard that " Salongo" means to creates something beautiful by the loved words in Zairian words."....
This is the 2nd version album that Maurice White produced his master Ramsey Lewis!
As the title, something beautiful was created neatly.
Though he put jazz in the center axis, the rhythm which sounds like Africa and Brazil was being taken in.
There was also thrilling sequence done throbbingly.
The gentle ring you can make purify of anxiety at the heart also exists.
A combination of Maurice White and Ramsey Lewis did the big creation !
Anyway a ring of a piano of Ramsey sounds like person's voice.
It's whispered quietly, and made feeling conceited, and... the feeling = heart is being transmitted from its sound perfectly.
