Scenery (Ryo Fukui album)

is a 1976 jazz album by Japanese pianist Ryo Fukui. It was Fukui's first release.

Reception This album was virtually ignored in the United States, given that it was released at a time of reduced American interest in jazz. In the decades since Scenerys release, the album has earned greater critical praise, especially for track "Early Summer". Fukui's dexterity and self-taught style has earned him comparison to such piano greats as McCoy Tyner and Bill Evans.
