“Foxtrot” was the first Genesis album I ever bought… it’s like the God of Prog rock was telling me to get this album. Still my favorite today.

Heard this song when I was 4, 5 years old and still remember the melody, but can’t find the song name. Right now I hum thru google and found this one…amazing band and thanks google ❤❤❤ ps I’m 39

Phil Collins is so full of himself…great drummer but what a putz…

Although Selling England always was my favorite album, the Lamb grew on me.

Mick Karn R.I.P best Bass Player bar none, probably made it talk imo

Played Glasgow Apollo on 25th October 82 few days after Edinburgh Playhouse

Around minute 21 when Peter talks about 'The Nice' I realize that their song Rondo reminds me a lot of 'The Knife'. I had heard the music of the Nice much earlier than Trespas

Se pensate - oltretutto - che questi ragazzi, all'epoca, erano ventenni.... genio. armonia. atmosfere. Che band!!!

The ease in which mick plays is mesmerising

I really liked the Gentlemen Take Polaroids album, and The Art Of Parties, but Tin Drum as a whole left me cold. Unfortunately, I saw Japan on that tour as well and it still remains the worst concert experience of my entire concert going life. I don’t know if they had fallen out before the show but the atmosphere was very frosty. Sylvian looked like he wanted to be somewhere else and barely moved. Mick Karn was the real showman that evening. He definitely had presence as did Sakamoto and David Rhodes. Overall though, it was hard work. Didn’t help that the support, Blancmange, who at that point had only released the one track on the Some Bizarre album, blew Japan out of the water. For just two guys, they made an unholy sound.

Mick's bass is crazy from more standard styles. As you try to put it all together, it seems all over the place, yet it works perfectly. Absolute brilliance.

Suppers Ready obviously steals the show as the highlight of the album but all the other tunes are tremendous as well which help to make this an essential document of progressive rock and. a masterpiece for the Ages..

How soooo cool did they look (and ALL of their music was and still is awesome!!).

中学生で聴き始めて夢中に　ラストライブは武道館でしたか ラジオでの中継に耳を傾けてました 久しぶりに聴けて嬉しいです

Galaxies ahead of their time. Not just Sylvian, but Karn, Barbieri, Jansen et al. Consummate artistry. Will we ever see it again!?

Mick Karn just casually leading the whole song! ;) Even with Steve's drums, Mick could have easily been the only focus of this video. Brilliant! A close up just of him like the Mr. No Problem video by The D.E.P. would be the damn holy grail.

Absolutely superb

that lick at 4:29 by Karn is just mindblowingly genius!

If you listen to all there albums from beginning to end then your know how good they were

I just wish that these live videos didn't include montage clips of Chinese people going about their lives... it's supposed to be a live performance (yeah, with some dubbing lol).

They all know how good this album is but regret not knowing at the time how they could have made it even better...kind of like Da Vinci wishing he could go back and "fix" the Mona Lisa. We see perfection...they see flaws.

本国の英国よりも、デビット・シルビアンの日本の少女漫画的美しさで、日本で先に人気に火がついた。

デビットの声には癒される。 坂本龍一さんのプロデュースが入ってから曲が好きになりました。

Phenomenal. How good was Mick Karn?! Unbelievable. Thanks for posting...

In the late 70s I used to write for a local music paper. One day I stopped at the office to get some LPs to review. The editor took me down to the record room and handed me 2 albums and said " We don't want a review of these, but I think you'll like them." He had given me the first 2 Japan albums.

Did Giorgio Moroder produce this? It's got his sound.

the combo of bass and drums in this song and Sons of Pioneers is absolutely brilliant. Words fail me and I just sort of flail about with how much they make me happy. The roundness of the drums, the uniqueness and presence of the bass, not to mention the woodwinds Mick played ... just absolutely amazing! This song was my introduction to Japan -- I'm sorry I didn't learn of them earlier but I wasn't even a teen when this came out, and I was in the US. Oh, to have seen them live in person.

This song, in particular, has absolutely brilliant drumming, and then you add in Mick's amazing bass and it all gives me the best chills. The combo is ... I'm speechless after all these years. This is potentially my favorite Japan song. It kills me that my husband, who was a wonderful drummer, passed away recently and I can't play this song for him for us to both geek out over. I hate that all of our nights staying up all hours listening to music I didn't play Tin Drum for him. Especially knowing that Barbieri was in Porcupine Tree, which he got into last year before he passed. And the fact that Mick is gone, too, just seems so unfair.

Good musicians...But, could not score with consistant hits that others like Duran Duran made easily to be big in Music Biz !!! Japan came close, but not close enough!

1974 University of Toledo, student union cafeteria. So Lucky

The guitar playing reminds me of guitar on "Scary Monsters" by Bowie. Love it.

With Japan, the future is always the future.

これみんな凄い

Super band

Me I'm just a lawnmower you can me by the way I walks.✌️🤘🖖😎

I bought Tim Drum recently, this live version is so much better recorded that I ordered Oil on Water. So rare that a live recording wins the day.

Mick rockin' his inner Toyah Wilcox in those days! x

The terrible vocals ruin the potential of the rest of the band. The music they brought out when they disbanded without the singer, were much, much better.

Omg... David Sylvian was my teenage crush & i had posters of him all over my walls. So handsome & androgynous and i still like that type of man xx

I would sneak in my 2 older sisters room when I was maybe 10 in 1979. Anyway I would play this constantly! I love you Sharon n Beth for loving good music and letting me think I was sneaking in your room

I thought this was a tribute band at first 😀

Mick karns bass sound was totally original and the way he moved on stage a bit like he's on a conveyor belt, extremely talented

My partner was in the mick karn fan ckub dkes anyone renember it silhouettes abd shadows thibk it was calked there eas a recipe for pevan pie i thi k

Rip mick karn

Seen them live at manchester apillo about 1987 or 88 remember steve on drums and david s vocals mock.karn gteat bass player andrichard my partner and both shared a love of japan till he passed away 2 yrs ago my partner loved micks guitar olaying

Am I the only one that thinks this live version is even better than the studio recording on “Gentlemen Take Polaroids”? This particular recording might be my favorite song by the band

Lovely,brilliant, what else to say

I barely remember it. I think my younger brother bought it. But I never really got into it. Maybe cus Selling England was so great it never got near to that greatness, in my mind & soul anyway. - Peter leaving felt to me-& millions of others-like the death knell of the group at that time. Is amazing they blew our collective minds with Trick & Wind! - ~ But fantastic doc!

Some of Phil's best singing of his career right here.
