Nothing too earth-shattering in this announcement, but I just wanted to let everyone know about this Twitter account which streams Japanese pop music from the 70s, 80s and 90s called 70s-90s J-Pop Stream.
The site is @70s90s_JStream or try www.breeze-crew.net/shoutcast/player/70s90s.php
I know that there are probably countless other streaming Net radio casts for J-Pop out there but not sure about ones that specialize in what I specialize.
(April 29 2013...I've noticed the uptick in traffic for this particular article....and for some reason, I couldn't get anything when I checked the site. Perhaps, they're closed for the day....or just plain closed down. In any case, my apologies)
I've been a fan of Japanese popular music for 40 years, and have managed to collect a lot of material during that time. So I decided I wanted to talk about Showa Era music with like-minded fans. My particular era is the 70s and 80s (thus the "kayo kyoku"). The plus part includes a number of songs and artists from the last 30 years and also the early kayo. So, let's talk about New Music, aidoru, City Pop and enka.
