The Perfect Combination...Jazz and Zen!.......2006-06-30

John Kaizan Neptune is the undisputed master of the shakuhachi,
a Japanese bamboo flute, especially as it has been applied to jazz! What an unusual pairing--a traditional eastern instrument
with an indigenously western musical idiom. In his CD entitled
"Jazzen" Neptune creates a beautiful and breath-taking fusion of
oriental sensibility and smooth jazz, creating an ethereal sound
that is sure to calm the mind, satisfy the soul, and transport the body to places where cultures meet. With songs like On A Raft, Water's Edge, Zen Forest, Five Directions, and Essence,
among others, John Neptune generates a wonderful tapestry of color, diversity of sound, and transcendence of being through
the unmistakable and haunting tones of the shakuhachi. If you have never heard this instrument, then you're in for a treat as it is played by one of it's true masters. Originally related to
meditative practices in early zen temples, Neptune's application
of the instrument to the jazz idiom can best be described as
extraordinary!
