Life In Tokyo (Short Version 3:30) NOTES ON THIS VINYL RECORD:
- Japan's main member was David Sylvian and they previously released "Gentlemen Take Polaroids."
Having Giorgio Moroder produce "Life In Tokyo" seems awfully odd, but it works. Japan disbanded in 1982 with Sylvian persuing a solo career.

Reader Comments on Japan
Correction: "Life In Tokyo" was released in spring -79. "Gentlemen Take Polaroids" was released late -80. Between them came the album "Quiet Life". "Tokyo" was a transition for Japan from the ealier glam-funk style towards the aristocratic art pop of their best period. However, it's a one-off, being disco. But to me it's Moroder's coolest and best-sounding ever production...
