    I learned about the band through Nick Rhodes and Simon Le Bon doing a special evening show where they played Visions of China in the early '80s, and mentioned some or all of the band members. I was so taken by the one song i bought the album. 40 years later I'm still a fan, but find myself digging deeper. Mick Karn's bass playing has become a particular interest and my heart breaks at his passing.

    I first saw Japan at the Manchester Apollo in '82.

    I can't remember why I bought Adolescent Sex, I think it might have been because I liked the cover plus the guy at the record shop said they were progressive and that the album had only be in the shops a few weeks. I was 18 years old at the time, and on that day, my life took a turn for the better. I was hooked and went on to buy anything Japan, or Japan related that I could get my hands on. I'm 65 next birthday and when my times comes and I disappear behind that curtain, with my relatives looking on, my family know I want it to be the the sound of Suburban Love. A Very comprehensive and to the point video.. Excellent!

  • @babylonsburning1

    Three classic albums, Quiet Life, Gentlemen take Polaroids and Tin Drum.

    Thanks for telling this important history.

  • @linferguson8702

    The break up of the band was totally unnecessary and totally due to Yuka Fujii dumping Mick for Dave 😡

  • @petermercury

    Well said sir.

  • @Danthehorse

    Arthouse or art rock.

    Ghosts is David Sylvian solo to me. I Second That Emotion is garbage. My favourite Japan tracks are Quiet Life, Gentlemen Take Polaroids, Swing, Methods of Dance, Halloween, European Son, Adolescent Sex and Life in Tokyo. They abandoned that perfect sound on Tin Drum and I blame Sylvian for that. I also blame Sylvian for taking all the songwriting credit causing Richard Barbieri to have to move back in with his parents after Japan split. Japan's members would've been better served had songwriting been split equally like Duran Duran did it.
