I finally got these CD's by this amazing Japanese artist and WOW are they an eye-opener! Good stuff from beginning to end, especially the stuff that sounds more Japanese inspired. The use of overdrive is tasteful and, in some spots, surprising. His Weissenborn playing is exceptional. I am truly pleased with these and would reccomend them to any of the more adventurous listeners on the forum.

Nob is a very interesting player, here's one of several live videos on YouTube:

Like you, I think he's at his best when he blends in elements of traditional Japanese music.
