This recording from 1960 Packed with Japanese Jazz Age.
Akira Miyazawa was one of pioneer in laying the foundations of Japanese hard bop.
The teacher of Japanese Hard Bop is Hampton Hawes who was in Japan for military.
Miyazawa is one of his students.

Even if Tarantino don't know the name, he's influenced by Miho.
This is most famous his work.

Everyone of my generation remembers and remind us horny teenage years.
Even if they don't know the name.
The string arrangement of Work Song is fantastic.
Sadly, this kind of music died out.
It no longer looks like exotica for the Japanese.
