存在の証明
『存在の証明』(そんざいのしょうめい)は、2000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。
