His first album was produced by none other than Takashi Matsumoto of Happy End. <br />He also sang on Tin Pan Alley song "Sobakasu No Aru Shojo".<br />And if you worked with either of those bands back then, you basically knew EVERYONE who was anyone in music.<br /><br />South Of The Border is a testament to that and boasts an all star lineup that includes Ryuichi Sakamoto (he did the arrangements for the whole album)、Shigeru Suzuki(Happy End)、 Haruomi Hosono (Happy End/Tin Pan Alley)、Yukihiro Takahashi(Sadistic Mika Band)、Tatsuo Hayashi(Tin Pan Alley)、and the list goes on.<br /><br />This is an awesome album. Highly recommended. Kaznoreply@blogger.com
