Album Notes ...........

Personnel includes: Ryuichi Sakamoto (synthesizer); Kazumi Watanabe (electric guitar); Yuji Takahashi (piano); Haruomi Hosono (finger bell).Recorded at Columbia Studio, Tokyo, Japan, between April & July 1978.Ryuichi Sakamoto's first solo album appeared before he formed Yellow Magic Orchestra in late 1978, after the young keyboardist had earned his M.A. in music from Tokyo University. Six long instrumentals make up this LP, but apart from a taste for Asian-sounding synth lines, they hint at very little of what was to come in YMO. "Thousand Knives" is a long disco-lite jazzy workout with a very un-synthesized guitar solo by Kazumi Watanabe (who would later join YMO on tour and have his solo album produced by Sakamoto). Side two's "Da Neue Japanische Electronische Volkslied" and "The End of Asia" (later revamped in YMO) are closest to the new wave of Japanese electronic music that he would spawn. "Island of Woods" and "Grasshoppers" trade in rhythm for sound landscapes, and the sort of cheeriness that would pop up later in Sakamoto's childrens movie scores. Harry Hosono turns up on one track, and generally the album is a pleasant, if unadventurous, listen. ~ Ted Mills

Born January 17, 1952, in Tokyo, he took up piano at the age of three, and regularly performed in jazz bands while in high school. Sakamoto's catholic musical tastes exposed him to everyone from the Beatles to Beethoven and John Cage, and he was also heavily influenced by avant-garde filmmaking; he went on to study electronic music at Tokyo's University of Art, and after graduating formed the techno-pop trio Yellow Magic Orchestra. Informed by the robotic iconography of Kraftwerk, the YMO became massive stars in their native Japan; their 1980 single "Computer Game" even reached the Top 20 in Britain. While still in the Yellow Magic Orchestra, Sakamoto also issued his first solo effort, 1978's Thousand Knives Of; two years later he returned with B-2 Unit, and the vast differences between the two discs gave a clear indication of the mercurial eclecticism that would define the remainder of his work. After the YMO's 1983 breakup, Sakamoto pursued his solo career full-time, achieving his artistic and commercial breakthrough that same year with his acclaimed score to the film Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence (in which he also acted). The soundtrack also marked one of several collaborations between Sakamoto and David Sylvian, just one of his many intriguing musical unions; other performers with whom he worked included Thomas Dolby (on 1986's Illustrated Musical Encyclopedia), Iggy Pop, Bootsy Collins, Tony Williams (on 1988's Neo Geo), and David Byrne, with whom he co-wrote the Academy Award-winning score to the 1987 film The Last Emperor. Other works of note include the score to Pedro Almodovar's High Heels and 1990's Beauty, Sakamoto's English-language debut, which featured cameos from Brian Wilson and Robbie Robertson. In 1993, he joined a reunited Yellow Magic Orchestra to record the LP Technodon, and in 1998 returned with Discord, his first work of classical music. Pre Life in Progress followed a year later, as did The Complete Index of Gut. Sakamoto remained a prolific force in the next decade as well, issuing Intimate in early 1999 ...........................

in German language ...........

Japanische Vinyl-Veröffentlichungen sind hochwertige Pressungen, viele von Audiophilen und Sammlern gesucht. In den 1960er Jahren hat Toshiba /Pionier Top-Qualität Pressungen mit ihrer Marke "Ever-Clean"-Prozess veröffentlicht,diese nutzt einen speziellen Wirkstoff der verhindert den Aufbau von statischer Elektrizität auf dem Vinyl. Japanische Pressungen sind gleichbedeutend mit Qualität - das Vinyl glänzt wie kein anderes Vinyl .
Die Klangqualität der japanischen Pressungen gilt als eines der besten in der Welt und darüber hinaus sind sie wunderschön präsentiert,
In der Regel sind die Cover auf eine bessere Qualität mit schwerem Papier gedruckt und oft auch einen Bonus lyrischen Einlage mit zwei Sprachen Japanisch & englische Text . Fast alle japanischen LPs wurden mit einem "obi" ausgestellt - wörtlich übersetzt bedeutet dies "Flügel" und wird von der obi (Flügel) um den traditionellen Kimono Kleid getragen abgeleitet. Dieses zarte Papierstreifen, in der Regel um die linke Seite des Album-Cover umhüllt, enthält oft Marketing-Informationen und Album inhaltliche Angaben, alle in der japanischen Kanji-und Kana ~ script gedruckt.
Obi Designs können so unterschiedlich sein wie die LPs .
'Hankake "(3/4 Länge Obis) sind fast unmöglich zu finden, und die' Rock Age"-Serie von OBIS sind besonders selten und wertvoll.
Unabhängig von Ihrem musikalischen Geschmack sind japanischen Aufzeichnungen eine beeindruckende Ergänzung für jede Sammlung. Akustisch und visuell präsentieren sie dem Sammler ein Fest der Genüsse.
Mint condition records, komplett mit Beilagen und obi, sind seltener jeden Tag zu finden. Mit japanischen Aufzeichnungen erhalten Sie Top Qualität Pressungen. ..............
