Description:
Takashi Hosokawa's soulful voice with the sound of shamisen echoing on the rough waves of the north! Takashi Hosokawa, who will celebrate his 50th year in the art of performing next year, has created "Otoko-Fune", an authentic enka song that emphasizes strength and a clear-cut gentleness. Set in Esashi, Hokkaido, the song expresses strength and melancholy mainly with Tsugaru shamisen and trumpet, and sings about a fisherman's manly spirit as he faces rough seas while thinking of his mother. The music is composed by "Sorato Masuda," who has composed many of Takashi Hosokawa's songs in recent years. The coupling song will be the popular song "Ouen-uta, Ikimasu".
