Yakuza Papers

Yakuza Papers : short review

Yakuza Papers

Based on the prison diary of a yakuza, (Kozo Mino), involved in the gang wars that ravaged Hiroshima in post-war Japan. The villainous godfather Yamamoru initiates him into his ruthless gang, which inevitably wins the power struggle through titanic, gruesome battles. Once more with The Yakuza Papers, director Kinji Fukasaku elevates brutality and abrupt editing to new levels as he emphasises the degeneration of the feudal samurai's code of ethics.

DeJohnette Hancock Holland Metheny - Live In Concert

In March 1990 Parallel Realities appeared on the international music market, the latest album by the drummer Jack DeJohnette on which he plays with the all stars Herbie Hancock and Pat Metheny. The three were then joined by their friend Dave Holland for a tour of the United States of America, Canada, Europe and Japan between June and August of that same year.

The unusual quartet played two concerts on 23 June 1990 at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia, which were recorded using state-of-the-art picture and sound technology by the multiple award-winning New York based Rebo Studios team.
