    Japanese Rokabirii

    Was digging around at Forever Young and found this CD. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, lol!



    Here's an example of this dude's Japanese rockabirii. It's pretty much all a ripoff of American '50s music, but that's okay. I'm going to have to dig into this stuff!



    And some later work (1973). I wouldn't be surprised to hear this in a Tarantino film.

    Not bad!

          Not quite Rockabirii, but it was in the same style as American music at the time, and even made it to #1 on the U.S. Billboard chart...
          And I do a mean karaoke version of it, in Japanese)
