I'm so glad I got to see Ryuichi Nakamoto's virtual final live performance in December. It was just him and a piano. And because of the time difference from Japan, it was the perfect Sunday winter afternoon music. If you can find it online, check it out too.

Sakamoto geek-out time : that Left Handed Dream album had 2 (or more?)extremely different versions ! The USA version was a terrible butchered mix of sound & other songs swapped in. The expensive Japanese & Dutch versions were far superior - eliminating the painful Robin Scott vocals. Yes Adrian Belew rules !

ERIK / VermonT:

The non Robin Scott version of “Left Handed Dream” 1981 album is a stellar early Sakamoto album.
Love his variety within his career !
His intense (& cruel) Mr Lawerence performance is a surprising turn for such a positive creative talent. The guy was diverse.
I have a particular adoration for the Sakamoto/Sylvian
collab for ‘Bamboo Music/Bamboo Houses’ 12”mix = Freakin Fab !

twice it was just him on piano w/ his electronics, either pre-generated or reactive to his playing. Once i saw him w/ alva noto, which is the one that stands out the most, just fragile shimmering tones on both artists accounts.. and the first time was just his electronics...

Thanks ngh for sharing those concert memories. So ‘priceless’, as they say.
Since we are here in this chat of such knowledgeable folks : does anybody know if the Japanese band “WHA HA HA” have CD versions available of their incredible albums ?! I’ve never understood why they don’t seem to be available !? A+ in my book. Especially hoping to score versions with extra unreleased materials. Plus their amazing Live & DUB EP !!! Anybody know ?
