Dear Mr. Rankin,

My name is Kei Matsuoka, and I am writing from P-Vine Records in Tokyo, Japan. We recently learned that you now have ownership to the much popular "Silver Morning" and "Kenny Rankin Album" albums. There are a great many of your fans in Japan, and we would love to license and do a domestic release of your two albums ("Silver Morning" and "Kenny Rankin Album") in Japan, with lyrics and Japanese translations of the lyrics to provide to the fans here. Please let us know if this would be of any interest to you.

P-Vine Records is one of the oldest and probably the largest independent label here in Japan, with about 30 years experience in the industry. We initially started as a re-issue label of American soul and blues music in the '70s, but now our repertoire has expanded to jazz, hip-hop, R&B, rock, and reggae:

Thank you kindly for your time and consideration in advance, and we look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Kei Matsuoka
International Affairs/P-Vine Records
