A very special arrangement of Balto by our friends SUPER JOHN BROTHERS, complete with the crowded eatery ambiance that's reminiscent of Lahan. How did I not find it before!?

 

 

While we're at it, here's their version of Time's Scar. I've watched this multiple times and only recently realized that our man Yasunori Mitsuda is on stage playing right along with them (fourth from the left, guitarist). They even point him out at the end... what's wrong with me. But take that, random commenter who says everybody wants to do their own thing with Time's Scar.

 

 

I really wish these guys released more CDs.

Would you listen to that! These RD-Sounds people are fantastic. I mustered the motivation to wrangle with a Japanese storefront long enough that I could nab about 12 of their CDs. Normally, shopping takes too darn much effort, but these guys are really something else. I even contemplated getting every single CD available on the site, except I got antsy about rickety tech rejecting my credit card/things not working, which happened when I tried to buy Trails from Zero. Please! I spent so much effort putting things into the shopping cart!* Fortunately, it worked.

 

Glad I picked Nozomi to listen to first, solid album. The song that convinced me to pop it into the cart (https://www.youtube....h?v=0CbvqJAfCRc) is amazing on the big speakers.

MVP2: Bassist

MVP3: Keyboard player

And MVP when they have one: the saxophonist

 

*It's hard to overestimate just how much I loathe shopping. As far as I'm concerned, there is only one reason to go to a store, and that's to get the goods. Everything from A (stepping into the store) to B (finalizing checkout) is a waste of time that makes my soul go stir-crazy after one minute. Take my darn money! Don't take my time!

I didn't post Rigel Theatre before? Not VGM, not live instrumentation, but still 110% incredible.

Thanks random YouTube saxophonist! This is a really lovely interpretation of To Zanarkand.
