This is YMO's 6th album, released in May 1983 and undoubtedly one of the best synthesizer pop albums ever. 'Naughty Boys' has a different sound and leans more to the Japanese pop music scene than previous albums. Nevertheless, this is a solid dance album! 'Kimi Ni Mune Kyun' and 'Lotus Love' stand out as most famous and loved by fans. 'Instrumentals' was released in July 1983 and is the instrumental version of 'Naughty Boys' featuring additional synths, a completely different running order and include different versions and mixes.

Service was the seventh and, at the time, final studio album by Yellow Magic Orchestra. The band dissolved the following year after a world tour, but would later reform in 1993 for a one-off reunion album, Technodon. Each member would continue their already established solo careers, while Haruomi Hosono and Yukihiro Takahashi also formed the band Sketch Show (with Ryuichi Sakamoto assisting), which later turned into YMO.

Japan - Live From the Budokan, Tokyo FM, 1982 (2020) Music

Posted by Rtax at March 13, 2024

Two CDs. Japan was an English new wave band formed in London in 1974 by David Sylvian (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Steve Jansen (drums), Richard Barbieri (keyboards) and Mick Karn (bass guitar). They started out as a glam rock-inspired band but developed their sound to incorporate electronic music and art rock influences, eventually becoming an influence on the 1980s New Romantic scene in the UK, although the band themselves were not a part of it. This set was recorded at The Budokan, Tokyo in December 1982 and was their fifth from last show on that tour. The band had become friends with Yellow Magic Orchestra who joined them on some of the performances here - "Bamboo Music" is a duet featuring Akiko Yano, and "Taking Islands In Africa" features Yukihiro Takahashi. Ryuichi Sakamoto also plays on those tracks.
