西村ケントくんのマイケル・ジャクスン「Thriller」のニュー・ヴァージョン（2021年ヴァージョン）がアメリカで発売されたばかりのギタータブ譜/楽譜の告知と共に、そして10月26日のCD発売に先がけてKZfaqで動画公開されましたねー。凄くカッコいい演奏です。 2018年、ケントくんが15歳の時にリリースされた3rdアルバム『My Favorite Songs』に収録されている旧ヴァージョンでは、左手のポジションを様々に変化させて演奏する事で（あの有名な）ベース・プレイが曲中ずっと続くという（おそらく当時のソロギター演奏技術としては）あり得ないアレンジで多くの皆さんの度肝を抜き、同年に彼のチャンネルKZfaqで公開された旧ヴァージョン「Thriller」の動画は昨年１月下旬に視聴回数100万回を記録し、今や230万回超えしています。旧ヴァージョンをアレンジした直後から、ソロ・ライブで演奏する度にアレンジが「更新」され、更に複雑＆緻密なモノになっていたようですが、遂に「本当にコレがこの楽曲のソロギター・アレンジの完成形だ」と言えるヴァージョンが出来たということなんでしょうね。 でも、実はそんな重々しい決断ではなく、ケントくんご本人にしてみれば案外「いえ、単に今年のハロウィーン・シーズンに何とか間に合わせて、皆さんに楽しんで頂きたかっただけなんです」という事なのかも知れないですけれど（笑）。

Kent Nishimura is one of the most inspiring musicians I have ever listened to. I'm not a guitar specialist so bear with me if I misuse some terms, but I am amazed how effortlessly he lets some of the notes ring while simulatenously muting the other strings, bringing out the staccato emphasis on some of the notes, following Michael Jackson's subtle vocal nuances.

Unlike some other fingerstyle legends who razzle dazzle with speed and fast meoldy lines, this star player emphasizes crisp, clean notes, an absolutely killer base line and harmonic accents that capture the original in a uniquely inspiring interpretation. Well done sir, you have added a new chapter to fingerstyle guitar lore.

I understand the haters, I really do. Its not that I have any doubts at all that he is playing this in front of my eyes. And its not that I think that he personally isn't this good, Its thats I genuinely didn't know that any human could be this good at playing guitar and so its reset what I thought was possible in the world and that can sometimes be an uncomfortable thought. Unforutunately the haters will deal with that discomfort by lashing out and saying its fake, when the truth is we just have to learn to be comfortable with the fact that we are witnessing something that few recognise to be truly unique and that should just make it even more special and enjoyable to watch. Thank you Kent, this is amazing. I'm happy that I'll never be this good otherwise people might think that this was normal.

As someone says, "Just in time for Halloween". This is a new version of "Thriller" cover with Kent's new arrangement for his 4th album "Fingerstyle Solo Guitar Songs" and his first Tab/music book "Kent Nishimura's Fingerstyle Solo Guitar Songs". The CD will be released in Japan on Oct. 26, 2021. Previous version of this song "Thriller" was originally arranged by Kent in 2018 when he was 15 years old and the video has been uploaded 3 years ago. As a result, it has got more than 2.3M views at present. I'm wondering how many times music fans in this planet watch this new version of "Thriller" by the end of this year (or for next 3 years). It must be very THRILLEd.
