...en de allereerste CD die ik kocht was Brilliant Trees van David Sylvian.
Uiteraard had ik die al op vinyl. Gekocht in 1984 voor Zij Die Niet Op Bluesky Zit: whitevalley.nl/2012/02/25/d....

Japan emerged in 1991 under the new name Rain Tree Crow. Just for one album. Two years later Jansen, Barbieri and Karn founded Medium Records. The first release on that label - and their formal debut as a trio - was Beginning To Melt.

I don't know how long
She's been here with me
But it's been a long time coming
Make it last forever

Once a playground of swings
Then the malice set in
And reduced all

Afkomstig van Gentlemen Take Polaroids uit 1980. Na de aanschaf van de plaat, duurde het nog enige jaren voordat ik erachter kwam dat Ain't That Peculiar een cover is van een bekend nummer uit 1965.

Steve Jansen - 'Corridor' (2018)

A special reworking of #SteveJansen 'Tender Extinction' album material. Sounds, chords, instruments and atmospheres from the album are remixed into a long instrumental and ambient suite. Gorgeous stuff. #Japanthon

Mick Karn - 'The Concrete Twin' (2010)
The last #MickKarn solo album before he sadly passed away on January 4, 2011. Once again, he plays all the instruments. It's a bit more optimistic sounding, but still weird, rhythmic, exciting and excellent too. #Japanthon

Mick Karn - 'Three Part Species' (2006)
Another true #MickKarn solo album in the sense that he plays all the instruments. This one is weird too, and abstract, dark, rhythmic, brooding, haunting, disturbing, thrilling, exciting and excellent again. #Japanthon
