Music: Japan Sanshin Melodies

While searching for new stuff on eBay I decided to take a little detour and did a search under “sanshin” in the hopes of finding something interesting. The search turned up a CD (among other items of course) with an image that caught my eye because pictured is a shamisen, not a sanshin. So I decided to dig further and found that it really is an Okinawan music album featuring utasaa legend Rinsho Kadekaru. The 15-track album can be bought online for around US $10. Not too shabby.
