…bought from Tower Vinyl, Ella Records, Flash Disk Ranch, Siam Time, Waltz and Coconuts Disk. I skipped Disk Union and Kankyo because I’d already exceeded my packing (and spending) limit.

Good haul from this Tokyo trip — focused on classic 70s/80s city pop and YMO/Sakamoto, but couldn’t resist the 1978 Japan pressing of The Kick Inside, a 1985 Hounds of Love tape, and that Kid A obi. (See ALT text for details)

Visited the ramen bar featured on Rod Modell & Taka Noda’s ambient masterpiece Glow World. (Hat tip to my old friend @patrick_h_lauke for sharing this location: Hakata Tenjin Ramen, Shinjuku.)

Akiko’s joyful solo performance was followed by a fierce quintet made up of tenor sax legend Kosuke Mine (love his First album), bonkers expressive pianist Fumio Itabashi, tireless dynamic drummer Takeo Moriyama, genre-hopping bassist Takashi Sugawa, and the roaring alto sax of Miyuki Moriya. Top night.

I never expected to see Akiko Yano play live, let alone briefly meet her and get an album signed. We were delighted to discover (late, we grabbed the last tickets, I think) the closing night of the London Jazz Festival at The Barbican was happening the day after Radiohead, so stayed in London for it.

Musician Henry Claude asked me some questions for his field recording research project, and was kind enough to let me archive my detailed responses here.
