This could be considered off-topic, but since he is such a huge figure in game music, I think it deserves a place.
To my knowledge Phantasmagoria is his only personal studio album he has ever done. The last track is called "Final Fantasy", but having played FF6-10, I dont recognise it at all from the games and it has no resemblance to the classic FF theme tune.
I have only listened to it once so far, but it's really wonderful and it has a lot of Japanese talking throughout some of the tunes and I have no idea what they could be talking about, but at the very end, a man is talking quite loudly and he says Uematsu's name.
I dont know whether this is to give some story to the tunes or whether it was just supposed to be attempting something a bit avant garde.
