存在の証明

角松敏生 > 角松敏生の作品一覧 > 存在の証明 『存在の証明』（そんざいのしょうめい）は、2000年8月2日 (2000-08-02)に発売された角松敏生通算13作目のスタジオ・アルバム。 活動凍結前から打ち込み系サウンドが際立っていたが、同アルバム以降は生の楽器を前面に出したアレンジになっている。 録音は東京・ロサンゼルス・ニューヨークの3か所で行われ、東京では当時の角松のバックバンドのメンバーを中心にゴンチチのゴンザレス三上やCymbalsの矢野博康等、ロサンゼルスではジェリー・ヘイ・ホーンズやジェイ・グレイドン等、ニューヨークではスティーヴ・ガッドやデイヴィッド・サンボーンなど日米の大物ミュージシャンが参加している。 ライヴでも良く披露される曲が多く、「生足の駝鳥」「愛と修羅」は連続演奏で、「浜辺の歌」は本編ラストで歌い、間奏ではバッキングバンドの紹介やオーディエンスとのコール&レスポンスを見ることが出来る。 全作詞・作曲・編曲：角松敏生 ホーン・セッション指揮 / ジェリー・ヘイ (4, 5, 10) 生足の駝鳥  – (3:41) 夏休み  – (4:27) 愛と修羅  – (4:07)
