Description:

JAPAN debuted as the original visual-kei rock band, and although their musicality grew with each album release, they regrettably disbanded due to differences in musical direction among the members. He made his debut as a solo artist in 1984. His solo albums with Ryuichi Sakamoto, Robert Fripp, Holger Shukai, and others were highly acclaimed. After the dissolution of JAPAN, David Sylvian continued to pursue a solo career, releasing his solo album "Seacrets of the Beehive" in 1987, followed by his first world tour. He toured the world for the first time. Of the 42 shows on the tour that will take him from North America to Japan to Europe, the London show on May 30 will be recorded and broadcast as a BBC Radio special. This release is based on the sound recordings used for the broadcast. Jazz guitarist David Tone is a unique jazz guitarist.Backed by a group of talented musicians including Mark Isham, who is highly regarded not only for his jazz/new age music but also for his film music, the perfectionist David Sylvian delivers the ultimate live performance, making this CD release a much-awaited one!
