The fantastic 'Tin Drum' by Japan from 1981. Such an interesting Japanese sound world they created here. And what a great single in 'Ghosts' #DavidSylvian #RichardBarbieri #MickKarn #SteveJansen #JapanBand #nowplaying #DailyVinyl #vinylcollector #nowspinning
Released on this day in 1980, Japan’s great cover version of a classic Smokey Robinson song. David Sylvian’s voice👌
I love the original version too. As ABC once said “When Smokey sings, I hear violins” 🎯👌

A rare opportunity to own two of Mick Karn's clarinets, which were used on Japan's Oil On Canvas, Dalis Car's The Waking Hour and other releases
The clarinets come with a letter of authenticity from Mick’s family

In this video I take a detailed look at Japan’s 1980 album Gentlemen Take Polaroids, a defining moment in the band’s evolution and a major step in their artistic development.

The sublime 'Rain Tree Crow' from 1991. The one-off Japan reformation under a new name. Amazing musicians and ethereal music making by #DavidSylvian #RichardBarbieri #MickKarn #SteveJansen #JapanBand #nowplaying #vinylcommunity #DailyVinyl #VinylCollector #nowspinning #VinylCollector
40+ years on, the final albums of Japan (Quiet Life to Tin Drum) are essential listening for post-punk analysis. Successfully evolved from glam-rock pastiche to sophisticated, electronic, and jazz-flourished pop. An explosion of creativity that set them apart.

'Brilliant Trees' the excellent debut album by the enigmatic David Sylvian An album of two differing musical sides. Side 1 has the brilliant 'Pulling Punches' & 'Red Guitar' and a more ambient side 2. Love him s solo work post #DavidSylvian #JapanBand

A great song by Smokey. I also love Japan’s cover version of it. David Sylvian’s vocals are 🎯👌

Ghosts—Japan
This moody, intense meditation on panic attacks really grabbed me back in the day, with its marimbas and odd synth burbles. And it's such an unlikely hit, even for the UK!

Simon Le Bon during a Radio4 interview that this song was one of his favorite songs. Japan & David Sylvian were too ahead of its time. The world wasn't ready. #japanband #symthpop #early80s #underrated #davidsylviam #electro
