Editorial Reviews
Product Description
The title, which means ‘heavenly sky', reflects the open air environment of Kitaro's home studio. On the opening track, a child's laughter is heard. The album's theme concerns images and impressions of childhood.

"I send a message of sound toward the sky, engulfing empty space, soaring far beyond grasp, high above the mountain tops, beyond ocean waves, stretching to reach the Andes and lightly touching Nepal . . . now catch the sound and feel the light by feeling things which are with life . . . this is a beginning - connecting the dream to the color of your breathless heart - peace and tranquility, you need only to sing . . . it is for you" --Kitaro --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Wonderful, Music that Soothes the Soul.......2004-02-08

My father introduced me to this album when I was a little boy. It has been something I've used as a tool fall asleep to. It is very relaxing and I recommend it to anyone who needs something pleasant to listen to. A memorable album.

Disappointing.......2002-06-26

The track and album titles are excellent~~~~ but having Kitaro go solo all day on his keyboards just does not appeal to me. Ambitious (as always) but not good enough.

Badly needed an orchaestra to bring that raw emotion out.

Tenku.......2001-09-07

This album I purchased as an oldie 33 spd. vinyl. It is pretty good, but lacked the intensity of the others. Of course being a fanatic of Kitaro, anything by him is awesome. I was introduced to his music by a friend and was hooked instantly. I have neglected purchasing some of his newer works due to other interests. I will update my collection in the near future.

A Masterpiece.......2000-10-03

I absolutely LOVED this CD, and have owned it or it's predecessor for over 10 years....and listen to it often. The music is beautiful, and to me at least, very unique.

Is very nice!.......2000-05-29

I really loved this CD! Is like all Kitaro's CDs. Very good! I really recomend this one!

All girl J-Punk at its best........2005-12-07

Tenku is the first full length album by the all girl punk band from Chiba-Japan, Softball. Definately one of my favorite albums of all time, full of fast, catchy, melodic punk songs. The album has that "first record" sound associated with most punk bands that couldn't afford to record in a high price studio. This is a blessing that compliments such songs on the album as: "Bright"-Fast,catchy and full of energy."Status" "Things" and "Baby"-Will be in your head instatly with there great hooks. "Attack me more" and "Rise up"-Fast songs that show Softball's more aggressive side. All in all an amazing album.

Pretty Impressive.......2000-03-31

I've been waiting for this full-length for quite sometime, and I've gotta say: it's damn good.
