Jazz:

• Hiroshima. Another Place. Original Release Date: 1978. Reviewer: jazzlemming (see more about me) from California. I purchased this CD after hearing the great instrumentals from Hiroshima's newest album, Between Black and White. I thought this album would be all instrumental as well, but it turns out only 3 songs are (tracks 1,3,4). While at first dissapointed, the other songs sort of grew on me. From Amazon.com.
• Hiroshima. Go. Original Release Date: 1978. Reviewer: A music fan from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This is my all time favorite from Hiroshima. I began listening to this group in 1978. They have rarely disappointed, but have often delighted. From Amazon.com.
• Hiroshima. Ongaku. Original Release Date: 1979. From Amazon.com.
• Hiroshima. Hiroshima. Original Release Date: 1979. Reviewer: Tom. Some descriptive words for this group are, Easy, relaxing, new, and mysterious.Their "Orient" sound combined with traditional Jazz make their sound different from other artist today.Music without words has always led me to Jazz.

• Hiroshima. Third Generation. Original Release Date: 1983. From Amazon.com.
• Hiroshima. East. Original Release Date: February 28, 1989. Reviewer: A music fan from Westchester, NY. Tabo is a very strong and beautiful song. I'm considering buying the CD.

• Hiroshima. The Best of Hiroshima. Original Release Date: September 27, 1994. Reviewer: Michael J Harrington (see more about me) from Scottsdale, Arizona USA. My wife and I just saw them a few weeks back, and this CD captures the energy of the band (Black and White is great, but a bit to smooth-jazzed-out). These guys are great, as I have been following them since their first CD. From Amazon.com.

  After L. A. and other great efforts Hiroshima looses steam with this effort. While the album is not bad it does lack the energy of the previous efforts. From Amazon.com.
