That would be "his". Mr. Sunahara is part of the wonderful and whacky J-Pop legends, Denki Groove (I recommend "Voxxx" highly for a wild ride). If you liked "...Landing", you'd probably also like "Crossover" - imho a stronger record (albeit in the same vein) overall. His (afaik) latest "Pan Am : Sounds of the 70s" doesn't work as well as the other two, but I like it also. Airports are a recurring theme in his work. jeff ps at one time he was subbed to this list - maybe 4 years back. At 10:01 AM 8/23/2001, you wrote:
