		It was not easy to create a correct discography, because until 1985 all albums of Kitaro were first released in Japan and after that other releases (in parts with new cover and new title) in Europe and the USA followed.
		In the Domo Records discography of Kitaro a release date for the album "In Person Digital" is 1978.
		But the big joke is that I found a printed discography of Kitaro by Domo Records which supports my own discography - and it is in contradiction to the Internet discography of Domo.

		Sometimes all that is missing is bass and the occasional tricky time changes (although Kitaro can beef it up when the need arises as he is a great guitarist) but what it may sometimes lack in time changes it more than makes up for with grand sweeping sound paintings of synths and keyboards.
		The same can be said of the master instrumentalist Gandalf, most of his recent output can only be described as Progressive rock.
		But in any case these are two outstanding cds and Kitaro is an exceptional musician.

		To cut it short: I've heard of a lot of Kitaro in the past and to be honest, although I sincerely like his music, I had never expected him to surprise me with yet another album of his hand.
		Opening with the 13 minute Yamadashi (quite long for Kitaro), consisting of two parts Tanne and Prayer, the opening is almost a soundsketch with some vague pointers to Kitaro's older work (in the sounds mostly).
		There's still enough of that typical Kitaro style music for everyone to be happy, but especially with regards to the atmosphere building, this is a highpiont in the mans career.
