GRANRODEO's last single release was last Aug's Tetsu no Ori .
GR STORY is part of Road to G20th trilogy release in early celebration of GRANRODEO's impending 20th anniversary next year .
Before GR STORY was released physically , the 1st song in the tracklist Daioujyo Everyday was 1st released digitally on 17th Sept . Only a video was made for Daioujyo Everyday & it's not included in the physical release of GR STORY .
GRANRODEO will celebrate their 20th anniversary in 2025 . As they approach their 20th year , their Road to G20th trilogy reaches its final chapter with GR STORY . The release includes a song that references DD BLUES from guitarist e-ZUKA's solo album , a hot song featuring their backup bassist Takita Isamu & a song that tells the story of GRANRODEO .
The 3 songs included in GRANRODEO's latest single offering GR STORY are all musically diverse from each other but it's quite evident why Daioujyo Everyday is the only song that had a video made as it rightfully deserves so .
Unlike the other 2 songs in GR STORY which took me a while to warm up to , that did not happen with Daioujyo Everyday as I really like it on 1st listen & this music style is something I could see the duo do when they did GRANRODEO Live Session "Rodeo Note" vol.1 & vol.2 which they performed at a jazz club a few years back .
With next year GRANRODEO's 20th anniversary it will be interesting to see what the duo plans to do in marking this landmark milestone of theirs but regardless of what they plan to do , I look forward to it .
