The Curtain, The Sword & The Samurai

After his daring diversion into curry a few weeks ago in Masako, James reverts to the old anti-jazz kissa food ways as we get back into town for a good old-fashioned Tokyo episode with three cracking Tokyo joints! This episode is dedicated to the inimitable Natori-san of Osaka's legendary Bird/56, who sadly passed away on August 7, 2023. Thanks as always to to Brian of Grooves Ahead for audio assistance and to Louie Lastic for our theme music.
