Serene state of mind

On Jun. 17, Chikuzen appeared on a late-night music and variety program hosted by Darjeeling (Yoshiyuki Sahashi and Dr. Kyon).

The program started with a scene at a golf course:
Chikuzen is an avid golfer.
He instructed Sahashi and Kyon how to hold a golf club, how to swing and hit a ball -and how to escape from a sand trap.

Chikuzen talked about his new album "Indigo":
A song recorded as Plus One is included.
And about Yoshiyuki Asano alias Butcher (See Apr. 23, 2007) -The sound of his guitar is both stout and sharp.
Intuitively, Chikuzen wanted the sound of Asano's guitar for this album, and decided to work with Asano after awhile separation.
Asano plays the guitar for five songs in this album.
Chikuzen had planned to go on a tour with him after the release of this album -but this wish turned out to be impossible.
This album is on sale from Jun. 20.

Song: Georgy Porgy (Darjeeling × Chikuzen)

The section of Chikuzen's recommendation:
The music of his basis is blue-eyed-soul music:
Steely Dan, Bobby Caldwell -especially his 3rd album-, Kenny Loggins "High Adventure", Randy Goodrum "Fool's Paradise"

The section of Darjeeling's recommendation:
A new single of airdrop "chocolate", a new album of M.O.N. feat. MAKOTO "Unknown"

Song: Harukanaru kokyou (home town in the distance) (Darjeeling)

Chikuzen talked about his weblog:
He won a prize at a contest of short movie of cats hosted by Rakuten.
Weblog, movies of cats, blue-eyed-soul music, and golf...
"90 percent of my life consists of them", Chikuzen settled the program with this punch line.

Last of all- sorry for the delay of the report again:
I had no time to watch the video until Wednesday and it took time for translation.
