Just last week I was looking at a photograph of someone and there was a poster of Yellow Magic Orchestra on their bedroom wall. This led me to Firecracker, which high I played on repeat who knows how many times. It took me way back to my youth, so then I spent many hours listening to more YMO, Japan (Quiet Life is such a fantastic track), David Sylvian, but I had forgotten about Forbidden Colours. Sakamoto’s death is such a loss.

Thanks for this, I am not familiar with Sakamoto but plan to jump down that hole and see where it leads. Heart felt moment bring Asia back to my mind, loved that album and had forgotten all about it, another thing to add to the queue.
Thank you so much for this episode. I was not familiar with Ryuichi and just listened into a few songs. What an experience. I will definitely listen to some more...
