Speaking of which, Hotei-san, I really liked "(maybe) Tomorrow Never Knows" which was included in the Best of Phil Manzanera-san album that I borrowed from a library (maybe) near Narimasu. It was really cool.
Sō sō, I also like David Bowie-san's "Waterloo Sunset." That said, when I hear this song, the first thing that comes to mind is "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" (although he also covered My Death lol).

I think I watched a little bit of a program broadcast by a Fukushima TV station when I woke up, but I don't remember if I watched "Today's Radiation."
(Now, let's turn on the radio.)
Before turning on the radio, I remember looking out the window of my hotel room at the parking lot and street below and wondering, "Is it going to rain?"
’Today, the semi-finals of the Fukushima High School Baseball Qualifiers, which were postponed due to yesterday's rain, will be held at Koriyama Stadium.’
(It must have rained quite a bit yesterday after all...
Hmm? 'Localized heavy rain is predicted in Fukushima again today.'
Well, since it's called localized heavy rain, let's hope we don't get caught in it.)
"Well, I guess I'll head out too."

Based solely on my memory of trying to play the riff for ’Immigrant Song’ while looking at "Guitar Magazine," I once said something like, "Maybe the riff for ’My Sharona’ came to him after he tried to play the riff for ’Immigrant Song’ but couldn't get it to work."

"But I feel bad for making you drive me both of your precious days off."
"What? Oh, don't worry about it. When I have a day off, I usually go for a long drive. It's a good way to relax... And you'd like to be in Koriyama by around 4pm, if possible, right?"
"If possible (it would save me money on transportation home)."
"In that case... Iwaki is a bit too far... It was obviously damaged by the tsunami, too. and, Yonezawa is in the opposite direction from Koriyama, so getting to Koriyama at 4pm would be a pretty tight schedule."
"Oh, I just mentioned the name of a place that came to mind without even knowing where it was (lol), so don't get hung up on it."
"Well, you know... west of Fukushima City there's a toll road called the Bandai-Azuma Skyline that's really famous for its autumn leaves... well, summer is still in full swing... but it's free right now.

sateoki, I had wondered if Hotei-san's decision to avoid calling 'him' "the roots of punk rock" was intentional, but the way he introduced Frank Sinatra-san at the end convinced me that it was (lol).

"I couldn't think about it."
"Huh?"
"Well, all our lifelines were gone and we had nothing to eat. We were doing our best just to survive, so we didn't have the luxury of worrying about the nuclear accident. At least in my case, at least."
I think we were talking about the situation at the very beginning of the nuclear accident, but I think I heard details from Honda-kun at the time, such as whether the only way to get information was by radio (because the electricity was out), but I don't remember very well. ☜This is just an example I came up with now.
I think I heard Honda-kun say something along the lines of, "I first learned about the situation on the TV in my car's navigation system," or "we kept warm by using the car's heater," but naturally, in Fukushima City at the time, gasoline quickly became an extremely valuable commodity that was hard to come by, just like electricity.
I think I also heard about the "rumors" and the distribution of newspapers from him, but I don't remember much beyond what I've mentioned above.
I think I heard something along the lines of, "Of course I was worried about the nuclear accident, but the convenience store near my house was becoming a distribution point for relief supplies, and the reality that I had to make sure to receive food and water for my family there was my top priority at the time."

anodesune hotei-san, This is just my own personal opinion.
When I started making music, I didn't have any particular idea that "songs with a BPM of less than 200 aren't songs," but all of my songs were over 200 BPM and around 2 minutes long.
so-so- hotei-san, I saw a live performance by Paul Weller-san (who likes catchy songs) that featured only modest songs (this is my personal opinion), and he said to me something along the lines of, "These kinds of songs are what's really important, and you should never forget that."
sateoki, So I started making these pointlessly fast songs, but the tempo slowed down a bit, and soon I started making songs that were over 10 minutes long each.
After that, I quickly settled on songs around 170 BPM and around 4 minutes long.

It wasn't in this location, but I think it was a conversation that took place while driving around the area.
"A peach farm..."
"Oh, you didn't know? Fukushima is a famous peach-producing region."
"Wow, there are a ton of peaches growing there. Of course peach farmers grow peaches..."
"They're in season right now. Fukushima peaches are delicious. Well, they're delicious, but..."
At the time, I seem to recall there being a lot of talk about how radiation accumulates in all agricultural crops, not just peaches. - This is just my vague recollection, but if that is scientific truth, then the same thing would naturally happen in the same situation.
If I had had the money(lol) at the time, I'm sure there's a very good chance I would have bought and eaten the peaches. It wouldn't have been hypocritical or a sign of friendship, I would have simply eaten them because I wanted to eat peaches. However, I probably wouldn't have bought them as a souvenir for my friend who lives in Tokyo.
Well, this is true in most residential areas outside of cities in Japan(lol), but after this I continued to see scenes of Fukushima as being blessed with fertile soil perfect for farming. Yes, at this time, crops were being grown in Fukushima. There were people growing crops. I wonder what happened to those crops.

"Wow, there are no cars on the road at all. It's almost funny."

"I wonder if many people don't know that this road is now toll-free?"
"I'm not sure if people outside the prefecture are aware of this, though..."
I don't remember the details of our conversation, but I was certainly being considerate to the people of Fukushima when I spoke to Honda-kun (I wasn't just saying things I didn't actually mean).
I think I said something along the lines of, "Maybe people outside Fukushima Prefecture aren't aware that this Skyline is currently free to use?"
That's right! Just as Honda-kun knew the fact, at least many people within Fukushima Prefecture were aware of it.
Why was there no other car on that road at that time, to the point that it made we laugh?
Was it because it was a weekday out of season(lol)? - Even though I'm writing this, it's not like there were no other cars on the entire Skyline route.
so-so-, I'll write about this later, but what made the biggest impression on me on this second day's journey was (a) police car (about the point where we reached the bottom of the Skyline towards Inawashiro).
Now that I think about it, the most memorable comment I heard on my drive today was my mother, who was in the passenger seat, saying, "Oh? That road is closed."(lol) - The road was blocked off by a security guard.
ゲイは当時、ベトナム戦争から帰還した弟から戦場の様子を聞き、反戦曲「ホワッツ・ゴーイン・オン」をモータウンの専属作家のアル・クリーヴランド、フォー・トップスのメンバーのレナルド・ベンソンらと共に書き上げた。モータウンの社長ベリー・ゴーディは当初この曲を気に入らず、シングルとしてリリースすることに難色を示したが、ゲイはそれに対して、リリースしなければ残りの曲のレコーディングもしないと反論した。そして、最終的には1971年1月20日、アルバムに先駆けてシングルとして発表され（B面は「ゴッド・イズ・ラヴ」）、Billboard Hot 100で2位、R&Bチャートでは1位を記録。この曲のヒットを受けて、ゴーディは残りの曲のレコーディングを指示し、5月にアルバムが完成した。
◆Let's Get It On is the thirteenth studio album by American soul singer, songwriter, and producer Marvin Gaye. It was released on August 28, 1973, by the Motown subsidiary label Tamla Records on LP.
Recording sessions for the album took place during June 1970 to July 1973 at Hitsville U.S.A. and Golden World Studio in Detroit, and at Hitsville West in Los Angeles. Serving as Gaye's first venture into the funk genre, Let's Get It On also incorporates smooth soul and doo-wop styles alongside sexually suggestive lyrics, leading to one writer's description of it as "one of the most sexually charged albums ever recorded". Gaye infused ideas of spiritual healing in songs about sex and romance, in part as a way of coping with childhood abuses from his father Marvin Gay Sr., which had stunted his sexuality.
Following the breakthrough success of his socially conscious album What's Going On (1971), Let's Get It On helped establish Gaye as a sex icon and broadened his mainstream appeal. It produced three singles—the title track, "Come Get to This", and "You Sure Love to Ball"—that achieved Billboard chart success. Let's Get It On became the most commercially successful album of Gaye's career at Motown, resulting in more creative control being given to him by the label. Its erotic balladry, multi-tracking of Gaye's vocals, and seductive funk sound also influenced later R&B recording artists and producers, with the title track specifically helping pioneer the slow jam and quiet storm formats.
In retrospect, Let's Get It On has been regarded by writers and music critics as a landmark recording in soul. It increased the popularity of funk during the 1970s, while Gaye's smooth-soul sound marked a change from his record label's previous success with the "Motown Sound" formula. Among the most acclaimed LPs in history, it frequently appears on professional rankings of the greatest albums and has been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame as a historically important recording. In 2001, it was reissued by Motown as a two-CD deluxe edition release. In 2023, the album was reissued with added material for its 50th anniversary.
Background
In the spring of 1972, Marvin Gaye was suffering from writer's block. Following the release of his most commercially successful album up to that point, What's Going On (1971), and the soundtrack album to the blaxploitation film Trouble Man (1972), Gaye had struggled to come up with new material after Motown Records had renegotiated a new contract with him. The contract provided him with more creative control over his recordings. The deal was worth $1 million, making him the highest-earning soul artist, as well as the highest-earning black artist, at the time. He was also struggling with deciding whether or not to relocate to Los Angeles, following Motown-CEO Berry Gordy's move of the record label and replacement of the Detroit-based Hitsville U.S.A. (Motown Studio A) recording studio with the Hitsville West studio in Los Angeles. Amid relocation and his lack of material, Gaye was struggling with his conscience, as well as dealing with expectations from his wife, Gordy's sister Anna. Gaye's separation from Gordy pressured him emotionally. During this time, he had also been attempting to cope with past issues that had stemmed from his childhood.
His view of sex was unsettled, tormented, riddled with pain.
— David Ritz, Gaye's biographer
During his childhood, Gaye had been physically abused by his preacher father Marvin Gay, Sr., who disciplined his son under extremely moralistic and fundamentalist Christian teachings. As a result, the meaning and practice of sex had later become a disturbing question for Gaye. As an adult, he suffered from impotence and became plagued by sadomasochistic fantasies, which haunted him in his dreams and provoked intense feelings of guilt. Gaye learned to cope with his personal issues with a newly found spirituality. He began incorporating his new outlook into his music, as initially expressed through the socially conscious album What's Going On, along with promotional photos of him wearing a kufi in honor of African traditional religions and his faith.
By winning over record executives with the success of What's Going On, Gaye attained more creative control, which he would use, following his brief separation from wife Anna Gordy, to record an album that was meant to explore themes beyond sex. As with What's Going On, Gaye wanted to have a deeper meaning than the general theme that was used to portray it; in the case of the former album, politics, and with its follow-up effort, love and romance, which would be used by Gaye as a metaphor for God's love. In his book Divided Soul: The Life of Marvin Gaye, Gaye biographer David Ritz wrote of the singer's inspiration behind Let's Get It On:
If the most profound soul songs are prayers in secular dress, Marvin's prayer is to reconcile the ecstasy of his early religious epiphany with a sexual epiphany. The hope for such a reconciliation, the search for sexual healing, is what drives his art ... The paradox is this: The sexiest of Marvin Gaye's work is also his most spiritual. That's the paradox of Marvin himself. In his struggle to wed body and soul, in his exploration of sexual passion, he expresses the most human of hungers—the hunger for God. In those songs of loss and lament—the sense of separation is heartbreaking. On one level, the separation is between man and woman. On a deeper level, the separation is between man and God.
In the album's liner notes, Gaye explained his views on the themes of sex and love, stating "I can't see anything wrong with sex between consenting anybodies. I think we make far too much of it. After all, one's genitals are just one important part of the magnificent human body ... I contend that SEX IS SEX and LOVE IS LOVE. When combined, they work well together, if two people are of about the same mind. But they are really two discrete needs and should be treated as such. Time and space will not permit me to expound further, especially in the area of the psyche. I don't believe in overly moralistic philosophies. Have your sex, it can be exciting, if you're lucky. I hope the music that I present here makes you lucky."
Recording
Gaye proceeded to record some more politically conscious material at the Golden World Records studio, known as Motown's Studio B, as well as the preliminary vocals and instrumentation for some of the material to be featured on Let's Get It On. Following the earlier sessions in Detroit at Golden World, Gaye recorded at Hitsville West in Los Angeles from February to July 1973. Accompanied by an experienced group of session musicians called The Funk Brothers, who had contributed to Gaye's What's Going On, and received their first official credit, Gaye recorded the unreleased songs "The World is Rated X" and "Where Are We Going" and the single "You're the Man" (1972) at Golden World. "Where Are We Going" was later covered by trumpeter Donald Byrd. Gaye had planned the release of an album titled You're the Man, but it was later shelved for unknown reasons. The songs that were to be included on it, along with other unreleased recordings from Hitsville West and Golden World, were later featured on the 2001 re-release of Let's Get It On.
The album's first recording, "Let's Get It On", was composed by Gaye with friend and former Motown label mate Ed Townsend. It was originally written by Gaye as a religious ode to life, but Motown singer-songwriter Kenneth Stover re-wrote it as a more political first draft. Upon hearing Gaye's preliminary mix of Stover's draft, Townsend protested and claimed that the song would be better suited with sexual and romantic overtones, particularly "about making sweet love." Gaye and Townsend rewrote the song's lyrics together with the original arrangements and musical accompaniment of the demo intact. The lyrics were inspired by Janis Hunter, whom Gaye had become infatuated with after meeting each other through Ed Townsend during the initial sessions. Townsend has cited Hunter's presence during the album's recording as an inspiration for Gaye. Gaye's intimate relationship with Hunter subsequently became the basis for his 1976 album I Want You. While recording the title track, he was inspired to revive unfinished recordings from his 1970 sessions at the Hitsville U.S.A. Studio.
Townsend assisted Gaye with producing the rest of the album, whose recording took place at several sessions throughout 1970 to 1973. They worked on four songs together, including the ballad "If I Should Die Tonight", while Gaye composed most of the other songs, including those from past sessions. "Just to Keep You Satisfied" was originally recorded by several Motown groups, including The Originals and The Monitors, as a song dedicated to long-standing love. With re-recording the song, he had re-written the arrangement and lyrics to address the demise of his volatile marriage to Anna Gordy Gaye, who happened to be the original song's co-writer. The background vocals for the album were sung by Gaye, with the exception of "Just to Keep You Satisfied", which were done by The Originals. Most of the instrumentation for the album was done by members of The Funk Brothers, including bassist James Jamerson, guitarists Robert White and Eddie Willis, and percussionist Eddie "Bongo" Brown. Gaye also contributed on piano during the sessions.
Music and lyrics
"Let's Get It On" features soulful, passionate lead vocals and multi-tracked background singing, both by Gaye. It has a 1950s-styled melody and begins with three wah-wah guitar notes and centers on simple chord changes, while its arrangements are centered on an eccentric rhythm pattern. Its signature guitar line is played by session musician Don Peake. Music journalist Jon Landau dubs the song "a classic Motown single, endlessly repeatable and always enjoyable". The song is reprised on the fourth track, "Keep Gettin' It On". It expands on the title track's sensual theme with political overtones: "won't you rather make love, children / as opposed to war, like you know you should."
The third track, the ballad "If I Should Die Tonight" originally appeared on the vinyl LP in a shortened version lasting only 3:03. For the 1986 'twofer' (with "What's Going On") CD reissue of the album, Motown recording engineers for the first time restored the missing verse which had been omitted from the LP. The full length track, which has been used for all subsequent releases, runs to 4 full minutes.
"Distant Lover" has Gaye crooning over serene instrumentation, leading to soulful screams near the end; from a heartbroken croon to an impassioned wail. The song's lyrics chronicled the yearning its narrator feels for a lover who is "so many miles away", as he pleads for her return and laments the emptiness he feels without her. Music writer Donarld A. Guarisco later wrote of the song's sound, in that "Marvin Gaye's studio recording enhances the dreamy style of the song with stately horn and strings, tumbling drum fills that gently nudge the song along, and mellow, doo wop-styled background vocals that echo "love her, you love her" under his romantic pleas. The song later became a concert favorite for Gaye and a live concert version, featuring female fans screaming in the background, was released as a single from his Marvin Gaye Live! album in 1974.
"You Sure Love to Ball" is one of Gaye's most sexually overt and controversial singles, with its intro and outro featuring moaning sounds made by a man and woman engaged in sex. The sexually-explicit and risqué nature of the album's content were, at the time, controversial, and the recording of such an album was deemed as a commercial risk by Motown A&R's (Artists and Repertoire) and label executives.
Marketing and sales
Released on August 28, 1973, Let's Get It On surpassed Gaye's previous studio effort, What's Going On, as the best-selling record of his tenure with Motown. The album peaked at number two on the US Billboard Top LPs chart, behind The Rolling Stones's Goats Head Soup (1973), while it also managed to reach number one in Cash Box for one week, as well as two weeks at the top of Record World's music charts. Let's Get It On charted for 61 weeks on the Billboard charts, and remained at the top of the Billboard Soul Albums for 11 weeks, becoming the best-selling soul album of 1973.
Two of the album's singles reached the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, including "Let's Get It On", which became Gaye's second number-one US single, and the top-30 hit "Come Get to This", which peaked at number 23 on the chart. The album's third single, "You Sure Love to Ball", charted at number 50 on the Hot 100 and at number 13 on the Soul Singles chart.
Along with the album's music and sexual content, Let's Get It On's commercial success and promotion helped establish Marvin Gaye as a sex icon, while helping further expand his artistic control during his tenure at Motown. This commercial success also led to a much publicized tour for Gaye to promote Let's Get It On and expand on his repertoire as a live performer. Successful concert performances of the album's material helped Gaye gain an increasing popularity and fan base in the pop market, while earning him a reputation as one of the top live performers of the time. His performance at the Oakland Coliseum during the 1973-1974 tour was released on the 1974 LP Live!, which would serve as Gaye's only release during his sabbatical period in the mid-1970s.
Critical reception
Let's Get It On received positive reviews from music critics. Billboard called it "fine in terms of vocal attack and material [...] touches on the excellent in terms of instrumental support", while citing the title track and "Distant Lover" as the album's best recordings. Jon Landau of Rolling Stone found Gaye's performance on-par with that of What's Going On and wrote that "he continues to transmit that same degree of intensity, sending out near cosmic overtones while eloquently phrasing the sometimes simplistic lyrics". Although he viewed that it "lacks that album's series of highpoints", Landau commented that "it ebbs and flows, occasionally threatening to spend itself on an insufficiency of ideas, but always retrieved, just in time, by Gaye's performance. From first note to last, he keeps pushing and shoving, and if he sometimes takes one step back for every two ahead, he gets there just the same — and with style and spirit to spare". In Creem magazine, Robert Christgau called the record "post-Al Green What's Going On, which means it's about fucking rather than the human condition, thank the wholly holey".
Since its initial reception, Let's Get It On has been viewed by writers as a milestone in soul music. In The Best Rock 'n' Roll Records of All Time, Jimmy Guterman writes that the album was "a bit more conventional musically (soul crossing into mild funk) and much more focused lyrically than its predecessor, What's Going On". Chicago Tribune writer Greg Kot commended Gaye for using "the multi-tracked vocals perfected on 'What's Going On', this time to convey his most intimate desires", commenting that "while the album is replete with erotic imagery, both implied and explicit, it is also as much preoccupied with distance and unfulfilled need". Jason Ankeny of Allmusic called it "a record unparalleled in its sheer sensuality and carnal energy", writing that "Gaye's passions reach their boiling point [...] With each performance laced with innuendo, each lyric a come-on, and each rhythm throbbing with lust, perhaps no other record has ever achieved the kind of sheer erotic force of Let's Get It On". Ankeny also dubbed it "one of the most sexually charged albums ever recorded." Allmusic's Lindsay Planer cites it as a "hedonistic R&B masterpiece." BBC Music's Daryl Easlea found Gaye "in supreme command of his material", and viewed it as "much more than an album about simple lust", but an "iconic, rapturous work".
Accolades
Much like What's Going On, Let's Get It On has been included in numerous professional lists of the best albums. It was ranked number 58 on The Times's 1993 publication of the 100 Best Albums of All Time. Blender magazine ranked the album number 15 on its list of the 100 Greatest American Albums of All Time. In 2003, it was ranked number 165 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time publication; the 2020 edition of the list ranked it 422nd. Also in 2003, Let's Get It On was reissued by Universal Music; the re-release was later given a silver certification by the British Phonographic Industry. In 2004, Let's Get It On was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and cited by The Recording Academy as a recording of "historical significance". Based on such listings, the aggregate website Acclaimed Music ranks it as the 215th most critically acclaimed album in history, as well as the 70th most from the 1970s and the eighth most from 1973.

Legacy and influence
Because of the album and its singles' initial sales and response, Let's Get It On marked a change and transition in sound and production for Motown, which had previously enjoyed success with its trademark "Motown Sound". The label's well-known sound, however, was beginning to fade in popularity among the majority of R&B and soul listeners, while experiencing commercial pressure from contemporary styles that incorporated more diverse elements, such as Philly soul and funk. The Motown sound was typified by characteristics such as the use of tambourines to accent the back beat, prominent and often melodic electric bass guitar lines, distinctive melodic and chord structures, and a call and response singing style that originated in gospel music. In addition, pop production techniques were simpler than that of Gaye's 1970s concept albums. Complex arrangements and elaborate, melismatic vocal riffs were avoided by Motown musicians. Following his breakthrough with What's Going On, an "experiment in collating a pseudo-classical suite of free-flowing songs", Gaye used his artistic control to modify the sound and incorporate funky instrumentation, melismatic vocalization, and heavy vocal multi-tracking, in much contrast to the established production style at the label. In contrast to Motown's previously successful process of emphasizing an artist's single releases rather than their album, Gaye and fellow producer Ed Townsend followed a similar formula previously used on What's Going On, in which the album's songs flow together in a suite-form arrangement, opposing label CEO Berry Gordy's strong emphasis on hit single success.
Gaye's change of musical style and production with the album made an immediate impact on the subsequently successful Motown artists, including Lionel Richie and Rick James. The album's vocal multi-tracking and instrumentation also influenced the development of contemporary R&B and slow jams. Allmusic calls the album "the blueprint for all of the slow jams to follow decades later — much copied, but never imitated." Renown engineer Russell Elevado's work in the neo soul genre, including his production for D'Angelo's Voodoo (2000) and Erykah Badu's Mama's Gun (2000), has been influenced by Gaye's and Townsend's production techniques and sound.
The album's sexual content pushed creative barriers in the recording industry and led to an increased popularity of sexual themes in contemporary music. Music writer Rob Bowman later cited Let's Get It On as "one of the most erotic recordings known to mankind." The album's success helped spark a series of similarly styled releases by such smooth soul artists as Barry White (Can't Get Enough), Smokey Robinson (A Quiet Storm) and Earth, Wind & Fire (That's the Way of the World). The commercial success of such artists led to a change of trend from socially conscious aesthetics to more mainstream, sensually themed music. Gaye achieved further success with I Want You (1976), featuring more sexually explicit lyrics and expanded use of vocal multi-tracking, and with Here, My Dear (1978), which he based entirely on his tumultuous marriage to Anna Gordy. In an interview with music author Michael Eric Dyson, hip hop artist Q-Tip discussed the album's influence and significance to its time period, stating:
Although there was a 'conscious' revolution, there was also a great sexual revolution ... I think Let's Get It On was Marvin wanting to make commentary on what was happening. I think there was a big 'love-in' that was going on. And with him quoting T.S. Elliot [in his liner notes, that life amounts to "Birth, copulation and death"], and the young lady moaning [on the album], we hadn't heard that before. That was another first, as well as him capturing erotica like that, and weaving it into the music the way he did; it was mind blowing. I think it was a natural progression, because we were having a revolution with our minds, and then with our bodies at that time.
Following the success of Sly and the Family Stone's There's a Riot Goin' On (1971) and James Brown's late 1960s and early 1970s singles, Gaye's Let's Get It On gave greater mainstream exposure to funk and broadened its influence on the music industry. Many later R&B musicians, such as Prince, D'Angelo, and R. Kelly, were greatly influenced by its vintage sound and seductive themes, incorporating much of Gaye's musical style into their music.

"Now that I think about it, how were you during the earthquake? The damage from the earthquake in Tokyo was terrible, wasn't it?"
"Well, I don't think it was that bad compared to what happened in Tohoku at the time, but it was still incredibly scary. I've never experienced shaking like that in my life."
"Come to think of it, you said you'd never experienced an earthquake until you came to Tokyo... Ah, you weren't saying anything strange, were you(lol)?"
"Yeah, when I experienced my first earthquake at my boarding house in Kumagaya, at first I didn't think it was an earthquake at all. I thought the person in the next room was shaking the house(lol)…Oh, that's right! This happened just before the recent earthquake. The apartment I live in has a shared washing machine and laundry outside on the first floor. So, I live on the first floor and I happened to be doing laundry at the time, so I went to pick it up around the time it finished, but I thought my hands would be full with laundry on my way back, so I deliberately left the door open and locked it so that it got stuck and wouldn't close properly. So that I could open it with my foot. Then, all of a sudden, I heard a vibrating noise, like someone drilling holes at a construction site, and at first I couldn't figure out where the noise was coming from. Then I realized it was this door making the noise, but of course I had no idea why it was making the noise.
After a while, the drilling sound died down, and although I thought it was strange, I closed the door anyway. Then, a little while later, the shaking started. I thought it would stop soon, but instead, it got worse and worse. I rushed outside, and the surrounding buildings were clearly shaking. I screamed out loud, "This is yabai!""

The address of this apartment. It's hard to notice it myself.
"That night, the Kawagoe Highway was jammed with cars and a never-ending line of pedestrians. There was also a long line at the rental car place. Later, when I asked some regulars at the arcade where I worked part-time, many of them said they had walked 20 to 30 kilometers home from work that day."
"What you saw was the area from the Self-Defense Force base to Narimasu, right?"
Yes, my apartment is a little way across Kawagoe Kaido from the Self-Defense Force base.
"Did you experience any actual damage from the earthquake?"
"No, nothing in particular."
"That's good to hear (laughs). Anyway, there's a scenic tourist spot called Tsubakuro Valley up ahead, so let's stop by."

"Hey、I'm sure anyone who knows your guitar sound will immediately know that this is the sound of the guitar you're playing、but is that okay？"
"Of course it's ok、because I'm playing the riffs that I wrote(lol)."
"Yeah、that's true(lol).
But your guitar sounds really mysterious."
"This has 5-string strings strung on the 6-string part of the guitar、and both the 6th and 5th strings are tuned down a semitone from the regular tuning."
"I see. So that's what makes it sound like that.
But then wouldn't that mean the tension on the 6th string wouldn't be able to be maintained？"
"The 6th string isn't tuned down an exact semitone; I tune it by feel、but I turn it up as far as it will go before it becomes an E."
"Wow、I see. But isn't this sound your precious weapon？Is it okay？You're telling me such important things."
"No problem、I plan to go back to regular tuning on my guitars from now on. And...
And also、amp settings and microphone orientation are important for creating a sound. Would you like to watch me set up my equipment for recording？ I think it will be helpful for drummers too."
"Thank you、but I'm about to be fired. I can't participate in this recording."
"Huh！Why ! ? Your drumming is so good！"
"A while ago、'the guys' came into the studio and listened to the rough mixes. 'They' said、'We used this drummer because we heard he was a really powerful drummer、but a drummer who sounds like he's banging on a suitcase is no good. We want you to change to a different drummer right away'."
"It's not your fault ! !
What a bunch of 'stupid people' ! !
What do 'those people' usually listen to ? !
Ok、let's start recording again now.
I don't know if it'll work out all of a sudden、but it's a one-shot live recording session ! "
"Right now？"
"Yes！Also、that vocalist is singing all the time with the key down one note、so I feel bad for him if he doesn't finish the recording soon.
And more than anything、if he heard me say this、he'd be angry(lol)、but his voice sounds great for this song right now…but his voice is a treasure、so we need to take good care of it."
"Ah、so he can sing higher notes after all！Yeah、I thought he was a really good vocalist too."
"His singing voice without using any vocal tones is several levels more amazing！"
"Yeah、I know、I want to hear his real voice too.
The bassist also plays accurate and funky bass. They've got a really good lineup."
"Of course、including you.
And the song I wrote is great too. This song is going to be a big hit(lol) ! ･･･actually、it was that bassist who told me about you."
"Huh ! ?"
"Actually、I had the authority to gather the recording members for this lip-sync. So...
Actually、those two have agreed、and we'd like you to join the band we're forming…I'm really sorry that this has become like a secret audition.
I actually wanted to talk about it properly in a more calm state･･･I seem to keep saying 『actually』(lol)."
"It's okay、if it wasn't for your encouragement、I might have quit being a drummer."
"Hey、is Jimmy married？"
"No、not yet."
"I wonder if this is what it feels like to be proposed to... Oh ! I don't mean it in a weird way(lol).
By the way、what kind of band will it be？"
"I don't really understand that、or rather、I had an idea for it、but when I heard your drums、everything just went away.
I can't really explain it、but I want to create a band that sounds like your drumming.
So、actually、nothing has been decided yet.
The only thing that has been decided is our band name."
"What's the band name？"
"Led Zeppelin."

"What? You wandered around on the bridge so much and only took this one picture? You should have taken more pictures."
"No, that's enough."
"Then why were you wandering around on the bridge like that? I was worried that people would look at you and think you were going to jump off and commit suicide (lol)."
"I just couldn't make up my mind to get close to the railing."
"You're not good with heights, are you?"
"Yeah, and besides, when I come to places like this, I somehow develop a fear of heights and a fear of spaces."
"Ah! I can relate to that a little bit about space phobia.

So, it can't be helped that the feeling of oppression becomes even more overwhelming (laughs), but it's really golden and incredible."
"Now that I think about it, when I went to the Great Wall of China on a school trip in high school, the situation was completely different to this place, of course, but it was incredibly high and the scenery was majestic, yet I hardly felt scared at all..."

"I don't get to fly that often, but I do like looking out the window."
"I hate flying. My high school field trip was to America, and the plane on the way there was so shaky it practically killed me. After that, I never wanted to fly again."
"Is that called an air pocket? You know when a plane is flying, it sometimes drops in altitude."
"It's not something so trivial. For about a third of the flight, it felt like we were being shaken in a washing machine. I've had enough(lol). So, shall we head for the summit now?"
Yes, let me apologize in advance. If the Earth ends because I can't ride Irias because of the height of the cockpit, then I'm sorry.

"Now that I think about it, lately it's become a tradition for me to climb Mount Takao with a friend over New Year's to watch the first sunrise of the year."
"Mount Takao is around Hachioji, right? Do you take the train all the way from Nerima to a place like that?"
(I like walking, so when I go to Mount Takao, I sometimes walk from Tobu Nerima to Kichijoji.)
"Yeah, my friend lives in Tama, and we go to Takahatafudo for our first visit of the year, and then we climb Mount Takao."
"Climbing a mountain in the middle of the night means walking, right? You don't drive all the way to the top, right? Oh, I'm sure there's a ropeway to Mount Takao, right?"
"No, of course there's a long line for the ropeway on New Year's Day night, so I don't feel like waiting, and besides, the ropeway only goes halfway up the mountain."
(I always go there on a tight budget.)
"So you guys have to hike all the way from the base of the mountain? That's tough."
(Yeah, Kuri has money, but he always ends up accompanying me and taking the tough route, and I feel bad about it.)
"But Mount Takao isn't a very high mountain, and many people walk up it. It takes us less than an hour to reach the summit, including breaks."
"Oh, so you can reach the summit of Mount Takao in such a short time? In that case, it might be good to think of it as a light mountain climb."
(We always climb to the top of the mountain with ridiculous speed, which ends up making us sweat profusely.)
"Oh, that's right. Once, we arrived at the top of Mt. Takao around 4 a.m., and I couldn't stand the cold, so I said, 'I'm sorry, but if we stay here, i'll end up in a mountain disaster, so let's go back down,' and we went down without seeing the first sunrise of the year."
"Who originally suggested we go to Mount Takao to see the first sunrise of the year?"
"It was me."
"Didn't your friends get mad about that(lol)?"
"No, but I really couldn't stand the cold...Come to think of it, I read somewhere that a lot of Philippe Troussier's friends were incredibly nice people..."
"Yeah, but you... don't take offense at me for saying this... to be honest, you're like that sometimes. If someone else did the same thing, we'd be like, "Don't mess around!" and we'd get into a fight, but with you, I'd just give up and think, "Oh well. I guess that's just how it is with him.
That's an amazing talent isn't it(lol)?"
"But at times like that, I really do feel sorry."

"I don't know (lol). So, what were we talking about?"
"Oh, that's right. That's why there are so many people at the top of Mt. Takao before the first sunrise on New Year's Day. The ascetics blow conch shells…So, when the first sunrise begins to rise, of course, there's thunderous applause and cheers…And then a whole bunch of people all start peering into the video camera frame to film, even though the sun is rising right in front of their eyes... That's all I wanted to say(lol)."
"Yeah, I understand the desire to record the first sunrise on video, so I don't have any complaints about that, but I also prefer to see it with my own eyes."
"Yeah, so naturally, once the first sunrise of the year has risen, everyone heads back down the mountain. And then, on the way down, no one pays any attention to the sun that has already risen. So I wonder what all the raucous cheering an hour ago was about, like a charismatic rock star making his appearance! It makes me think that the sun has fallen from its superstar status far too quickly."

「この曲好きなんだよ」と辻くんに"アマチュアアワー"を聴かせるとすごく気に入り、「このバンドいいね、他の曲も聴いてみたいな。ベスト盤持ってないの？」「ベスト盤は持ってないな」てことで『kimono my house』を貸したんだったか、wmaファイルをあげたんだったか(ごめんなさい)、どうだったか。
Kimono My House is the third studio album by American rock band Sparks, released on May 1, 1974, by Island Records.[7] The album is considered to be their commercial breakthrough, and was met with widespread acclaim.
Preceded by the single "This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us", Kimono My House peaked at No. 4 in the UK and No. 101 in the US. Retrospectively, Kimono My House is considered one of Sparks's best works and one of the best glam rock albums.
History
In 1973, prior to the recording of the album, the brothers Ron and Russell Mael had accepted an offer to relocate to the United Kingdom in order to participate in the glam rock scene. The previous lineup consisting of Earle Mankey, James Mankey and Harley Feinstein was replaced with British musicians: Martin Gordon, Adrian Fisher and Norman "Dinky" Diamond joined the band to play bass, guitar and drums respectively. The group signed a record contract with Island Records and recorded Kimono My House in 1974. Although the Mael brothers had wanted Roy Wood to produce the album, he was unavailable, so Muff Winwood was hired instead. Winwood remained with the group to produce the follow-up album Propaganda later in 1974.
Title
The album's title is a line from the song on the album "Hasta Mañana, Monsieur", and a pun on the title of the song "Come On-a My House", made famous by Rosemary Clooney. The pun has a precedent, however, in the title of the track "Kimona My House" on jazz guitarist Dick Garcia's 1956 album A Message from Garcia.
Sound
Musically, Kimono My House represented a shift in sound and a focusing of Ron Mael's songwriting (now the indisputable lead songwriter). Sparks' two albums with the Mankey brothers had been diverse albums that featured a number of different styles, such as a cover of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Do-Re-Mi", "Here Comes Bob", which was performed by a small string section, and "The Louvre", which mixed both English and French lyrics.
The new album embraced the more pop-oriented side of the Mael brothers' song-writing, which had previously been evident in songs such as "Wonder Girl" and "High C". Now, with challenging arrangements by the new British line-up and Winwood's simpler production, the songs were more focused. The album slotted in with the current popularity of glam rock—which was dominating the charts—in particular, the more experimental and electronic sound of Roxy Music and David Bowie. Lyrically, the songs remained unusual and humorous. The great number of words filled with pop-culture references, puns and peculiar sexual content, sung often in falsetto by Russell Mael, set Sparks apart from other groups.
The particularity of their sound, which matched pop songwriting with complex lyrics, defined the group to their UK audience. Integral to the sound was Adrian Fisher's guitar playing and Martin Gordon's sonorous Rickenbacker bass. The novel input of competent and innovative musicians constituted a successful formula which was maintained only until the tour which followed the release of Kimono My House, with Gordon fired before the tour and Fisher afterwards.[citation needed]
The other key component of the Sparks sound in this period was Ron Mael's keyboard. On the previous two albums Ron had primarily used a Wurlitzer electronic piano, but he found that the instrument did not stand up well to the rigours of touring, because the metal reeds that generated the notes frequently broke. When the group relocated to the UK, Mael purchased an RMI Electra-Piano model 300. This instrument had three basic sound options, a piano sound, an organ sound and a harpsichord sound, but Mael used only the piano sound for his work with Sparks.
Although the tonal quality was markedly inferior to a Wurlitzer or a Fender Rhodes – Mael later described the piano setting on the Electra-Piano as "incredibly terrible" – the RMI had several notable advantages for a touring musician. Unlike the electro-mechanical Wurlitzer and Rhodes, the RMI was a completely solid-state instrument, with each note generated by its own dedicated LC oscillator circuit, so it was both more robust and lighter than a Wurlitzer, and the tone generator circuits were very stable and did not drift out of tune, which was a common problem for many early electronic performance keyboards like the Minimoog synthesiser. To compensate for the very basic sound of the Electra-Piano, Mael fed the instrument through an Echoplex tape echo unit, giving it the highly distinctive "shimmer" that features prominently on their breakthrough single "This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us".
Ron Mael: "It was the first time I was really aware that technology can give some kind of mystery to the sound. There was a kind of haunting quality to the RMI with the Echoplex. Real tape delay gave it a little of a wobbly feel. That sound, these days, you can approximate it, but to get that thing, you need the old gear. I'm not a big collector of vintage gear, but I kept that Echoplex, 'cause it's just such a beautiful machine."
The visuals were aided and abetted by the physical presence of the group. Ron and Russell milked their peculiar image, with Ron's toothbrush moustache, reserved wardrobe and usually silent demeanour sat in diametrical opposition to his younger brother's long curly hair and energetic and flamboyant stage persona. Taken together, the sound and look of the group caused a sensation, producing what seemed to the mass audience to be an "overnight success".
What sounds like a honking saxophone line at the end of ”Equator”, is in fact a mellotron played by Ron Mael; the seductive whispers on the track are delivered by a sped-up Russell Mael.
Cover artwork
The original concept for the cover came from Ron Mael, who was inspired by a Japanese World War II propaganda photograph he had seen in an old wartime edition of Life magazine. The original image depicted two Japanese women in traditional dress disdainfully holding their noses with one hand while holding a photograph of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. However, in place of the Churchill photo, Mael's homemade mockup substituted the cover of Sparks' previous album, A Woofer in Tweeter's Clothing (1973).
The final version of the front cover was executed by the same team who created the classic early covers for Sparks' labelmates Roxy Music—Island Records Marketing Director Tim Clark, photographer Karl Stoecker and stylist Nicholas de Ville. It is notable for having neither the name of the band nor the album title on it.
The two women pictured, in kimono, were actresses Michi Hirota and Kuniko Okamura. They were members of Japan's Red Buddha Theatre headed by Stomu Yamashta, which was performing in London at the time. Interviewed in 2014, Hirota recalled:
※Stomu Yamashta (or Yamash'ta), born Tsutomu Yamashita (山下勉, Yamashita Tsutomu, 15 March 1947), is a Japanese percussionist, keyboardist and composer. He is best known for pioneering and popularising a fusion of traditional Japanese percussive music with Western progressive rock music in the 1960s and 1970s.
In the latter part of the 1970s, he led the supergroup Go with Steve Winwood, Al Di Meola, Klaus Schulze, and Michael Shrieve. from wiki. ※
We were both actresses touring with a Japanese theatre company in Europe and the USA. My husband Joji Hirota was musical director. A record company (Island records) approached our director looking for Japanese women, and we were asked to do the modeling. I am the woman on the right (with a fan). We were not told much, they just let us move freely. We didn't know how to arrange our hair properly or how to fix our kimono. There was nobody to dress us. The session took 4 or 5 hours. It had such an impact, however I thought that I looked bit ugly.
Asked if there were any other photos from the session, Hirota recalled:
Yes, I kept one Polaroid photo in which I looked rather kawaii (cute in Japanese), which Karl dropped on the floor. Hope this is OK with him. I keep it in my personal photo album.
In 1980, Michi Hirota (pictured right) would add vocals to David Bowie's "It's No Game".
"01 It's No Game (Part 1)" ※I think the Japanese lyrics are basically the same lyrics as the English lyrics. 2023062607:17(japan time).
The back cover includes the band name, the album title, list of songs and photos of the band members. The inner sleeve for the original vinyl record was printed with a full set of song lyrics on one side and a black and white photograph of the Mael brothers, framed in a spotlight, on the reverse.
Release
Kimono My House became a popular release, peaking at No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart, and was awarded gold status by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in September 1974. The single "This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us" was a surprise hit and reached No. 2 on the UK Singles Chart, being certified silver in June 1974. It was held off the top spot by the Rubettes' bubblegum pop song "Sugar Baby Love", which remained at No. 1 for four weeks. Sparks' second Island era single, "Amateur Hour", reached the top ten in the UK later that summer.
"The Rubettes - Sugar baby love - Les années bonheur - Patrick Sébastien"
Outside the UK, Kimono My House and its singles made a significant impact across Europe, notably in Germany, where both singles reached No. 12. In the US, the album reached No. 101 on the Billboard 200. The group's two Bearsville Records albums had garnered critical praise but few sales. The only significant chart performance had been for "Wonder Girl", which had been a minor regional hit and had crept into the lower reaches of the Cashbox chart at No. 92. In place of "Amateur Hour", "Talent Is an Asset" was selected as the album's second single in the US, and the album's third in New Zealand.
Critical reception and legacy
Upon its release, New Musical Express published an enthusiastic one page review dubbing the album "an instant classic". Reviewer Ian Mac Donald wrote that all of the songs "sound like standards", adding "this record makes you jump in every sense" before concluding: "Kimono My House is the real breakthrough – I think you're gonna love it". Sounds praised the freshness of the material, saying, "the music is completely new and innovative". Reviewing Kimono My House for Rolling Stone in 1974, Gordon Fletcher was complimentary of Ron Mael's "whimsical" lyrics, which he felt revealed "a unique (if slightly warped) perspective and a volatile sense of humor", but found that they tended to be obscured by Winwood's "obfuscating" production. Fletcher further criticized Russell Mael's singing on the album as "a disappointing stab at intelligible vocals". The Spokesman Review's critic wrote that it was "the most invigorating appealing" album "that I've heard in longer than I can recall at the moment". Reviewer Robert Hilburn wrote that the songs were "rich with vigor" with "great harmonies and dynamic tempo changes".
English singer and Smiths frontman Morrissey has frequently cited Kimono My House as one of his favorite albums and famously wrote a letter to the NME, at the age of 15, extolling its virtues. He later told the Mael brothers that it had been a key influence on him deciding to embark upon a music career. In 2010, Morrissey included it in a list of his 13 favorite albums of all time for The Quietus. Icelandic singer Björk has also named the album as one of her all-time favorites. Steve Jones, guitarist and composer for the Sex Pistols, also hailed the album, recalling that in 1974, "The first Be-Bop Deluxe album, Axe Victim, and Sparks' Kimono My House were both big albums for me and Cookie [Paul Cook]. We'd sit in his bedroom for hours listening to them". John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers named Adrian Fisher's guitar playing on Kimono My House and its follow-up Propaganda as one of his influences for the album By the Way (2002). The album was featured in Robert Dimery's book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. In 2020, the album was ranked at number 476 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
Re-release
Kimono My House was remastered and re-issued by Island in 1994 and 2006. The first issue by the Island Masters subsidiary added the non-album B-sides "Barbecutie" and "Lost and Found". The '21st Century Edition' added a live recording of "Amateur Hour" recorded by a subsequent (1975) line-up of the group and sleeve notes by Paul Lester, the deputy editor of Uncut.
A remastered 40th Anniversary Edition was released on December 15, 2014, on vinyl only, including previously unreleased demo material from the band's archives. Coinciding with the release the entire album was performed, along with the 35-piece Heritage Orchestra, at the Barbican Centre on December 19 and 20, where the band also performed brand new orchestral arrangements by Nathan Kelly. The programme also featured songs from their other 22 albums. The second date was added after the first night sold out.
As part of the live performance with the Heritage Orchestra, the band released the song "Thank God It’s Not Christmas" as a single. Stewart Mason of AllMusic said:
“One of the many highlights on the phenomenal Kimono My House, "Thank God It’s Not Christmas" is the archetypal song from Sparks’ Island Records era. Adrian Fisher’s lead guitar and Ron Mael’s piano duel insistently with a prominent string section, as Russell Mael sings an alternately wry and depressing lyric about the desire to find activities that distract oneself from a slowly disintegrating relationship. The lyrics are truly magnificent, both in their literal meaning and the way they work with the music, creating a rhythmic counter-melody that echoes Fisher’s guitar line, and Muff Winwood’s crystal-clear production emphasizes the song’s soaring, anthemic elements; although "Amateur Hour" and "This Town Ain’t Big Enough for Both of Us" were the hits and "Here In Heaven" is more beloved by fans, "Thank God It’s Not Christmas" is possibly the album’s highest point."

"I have some things I want to do later today, so I'd like to finish earlier than usual."
"Oh, really? I get it. So, what do you want to say today?"
"You're right! There are lots of signs saying 'Danger! Volcanic Gas Release!' and the scenery has completely changed, it's become desolate."
"Yeah, around here, depending on the wind, there's a chance of volcanic gas drifting in, so don't open the car windows. We'll be at the restaurant soon."
"Are there any tourist spots around there?"
"Look, you can see a mountain that looks like a miniature Mount Fuji right in front of you. That mountain is called Azuma Kofuji, and anyone can climb it."
Jōdo(浄土) of Jōdotaira means pure land.
Simply put, the teachings of Buddha, which came into contact with Greek civilization in Gandhara, were assimilated with Taoism and other religions in China, and then made their way to Japan.
This highly mixed Buddhism was further mixed with ancient Japanese mountain worship and other elements, forming the original Japanese Buddhism.
That is why some old Buddhist paintings in Japan depict Amida Buddha coming down from the mountain to welcome a dying person, which is said to be unique to Japanese Buddhism.
First, I will speak without distinguishing between religion and philosophy.
If the new teachings of Shingon(mantras?) that Kukai brought from China to Japan were Christianity, I think they would have been immediately put on trial for heresy.
well, I don't know whether these elements were present in the Chinese mantras, or whether they first emerged in the mantras that Kukai developed in Japan based on those, but.
Kukai's mantra is extremely difficult to understand, but it is said that it becomes extremely open-minded only when Greek philosophy is applied to it.
This may be one manifestation of the "truth of logic," but it is also possible that Kukai had direct contact with Aristotelian philosophy, Zoroastrianism, Nestorian Christianity, and so on while in China.
When I saw the "Omizutori" ceremony at Todaiji Temple in Nara on TV, I wondered if it was Zoroastrianism, without knowing anything about it.
I know this might sound rude, but I think that the original purpose of the Soka Gakkai's founding—and I think this applies to all "講" as well—was to protect and defend those who had to play the role of socially vulnerable people as a strategically necessary step, in other words, those who would be targeted by "them" in various ways.
Incidentally, my trust in Daisaku Ikeda was based on first impressions (sorry, lol).
AI-generated summary
"Patto-mi" (パット見) is a casual expression meaning an impression or feeling based on a quick glance. It refers to a "first impression" or "outward impression" before a detailed examination, and is used with the nuance that it may differ from reality, as in "It looks good at first glance."
Characteristics and Usage/Meaning:
・An impression based on only a very short time spent looking at an object.
・Nuance: Similar to "outwardly" or "at first glance," it can imply that something is different (flaws are present) upon closer inspection.
Examples:
・"At first glance, it looks like an easy puzzle."
・"At first glance, it looks well done, but upon closer inspection, flaws are noticeable."
Synonyms:
・"At first glance," "appearance," "glance."
In business or formal situations, it is more appropriate to use "at first glance" or "appearance."
AI Summary: A "ko" (講) is a group of people who share a belief in a particular deity or Buddha, or a group or gathering that aims for mutual assistance (financial support) in a local area. During the Edo period, "daisan-ko" (代参講), where members would save money for pilgrimages to Ise Shrine or Mount Fuji and send a representative on their behalf, became popular. In modern times, ko may also function as venues for appreciating classical performing arts or for community interaction. NPO Edo-ren +3
In modern times, the word "ko" is sometimes used not only in reference to religious ceremonies, but also to refer to social gatherings within local communities or to venues for specific hobbies or training programs.
"This parking lot is free too... I guess it's really free everywhere."
Putting the Red Comet aside, is there a fee for this parking lot? I think I actually said something like that at the time.
Come to think of it, the V Gundam flies like that. But, that aside.
(There are a fair number of cars parked in this parking lot. Hmm, I guess there are a lot of cars with Fukushima license plates? That said, there are also a few cars from outside the prefecture. I guess that's about the same ratio for parking lots in any tourist destination.)
"What should we do? Shall we eat lunch first?"
"Let's climb Ko-Fuji for now, that's the path up, right?"
"By the way, I went to see the Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll tour the other day, but the set list was mostly Western cover songs, so the audience wasn't that excited. I guess Hotei fans don't really listen to Western music."
"Are people who became Hotei fans after 'Poison' a little different from the Hotei fans before that?…But is BOØWY the biggest reason why Japanese people have completely turned away from Western rock music (lol)?
Apparently, the audience reaction when Hotei performed at Fuji Rock was also terrible. I asked a Western rock fan friend who was there, and he said there was a strong rejection from the start, like, "This isn't the place for a lame guy like you.
That's right, when I was in college I worked part-time at a used record store, and in that area BOØWY was treated as a symbol of that kind of uncoolness. It was the Shibuya-kei era(lol)."
[somosomo-desuga, I sometimes thought, "You guys are just rehashing little jokes from Western music."
ma, I thought Oyamada Keigo-san and Pizzicato V-san were truly amazing at the time.]
"I think that with music, you should just listen to the songs and artists that you like. If you don't like the artist's music anymore, then you can just stop listening to it. That's it."
"Do you think Hotei is a bad singer?"
"Honestly, I don't think so."
"Me too. I guess that's why we're fans(lol)...You started listening to Hotei's music with GUITARHYTHM Ⅲ, right?"
"Yes."
"I used to listen to a radio show hosted by Hotei, which ended around the time GUITARHYTHM III was released, and he always played about 25 Western songs on the show. If I hadn't listened to that show, I might not be listening to Western music, or even that much music, right now."
"Nowadays, we can easily listen to music from all over the world on YouTube, but we usually don't listen to Western music unless we have some kind of starting point."
"That's true. To be honest, I was still a novice, and I probably felt like a follower of some shady religion, like this was a reliable product that Hotei had recommended(lol). But even so, I gradually started to buy more CDs by bands I thought were good on the radio…and, I started working part-time at a used record store called Mizusu Records in Omiya, and during my breaks I would read Record Collectors, which they had in the backroom, complete with the first issue…then I made some record collector friends there and they'd let me listen to all sorts of stuff, and I started to like things like, "This James Brown live performance is great," and I started to like the funk vibe.
Unfortunately(lol), it was an old "used record store" (I think the president was connected to "rekōdo-sha") run by a manager who was a Yazawa Eikichi-san fan and good friends with the editor of "Music Magazine." therefore The music I listened to at that time was a bit biased towards the world of record collectors(lol).
Now, I don't think I had that kind of "persecution complex," so it's possible that I'm just making up the following to make the story more interesting.
Initially, I think my intention might have been, "As a fan of BOØWY (I've publicly stated this), I'll become more knowledgeable than my "imaginary enemies" about the music they like."
So that's how I ended up with something like, "Oh? Robert Johnson is cool! for example."
"Isn't this enough for today?"
"Yeah... That's the top."
That's right, one of the first shocks I had at a James Brown-san live cd was when I thought it was the first song, only to find out that it was already the fourth song on the CD(lol).
"Huh? Beat Kiyoshi-san? Do you know Beat Kiyoshi?"
"No, I don't know him at all. It's all a matter of circumstances."
"I see. So?"
"Don't you think Beat Kiyoshi-san's smile is similar to Macchan's?"
"Macchan?! That brings back memories! Talking to you brings up familiar names(lol)…Is he doing well now?"
"No, I have no idea what he's doing right now either."
"The other day I was looking at Beat Kiyoshi-san's big smile on the internet, and this disquiet feeling reminded me of something... and then I realized it was similar to Macchan's big smile."
そんなことはないんですけどね、なんにせよ。
"You know, the more Macchan smiles, the more disquiet I feel, and it's just like that."
"Even if you say that, I of course remember Macchan's smile, but even though I don't agree with you, Beat Kiyoshi's smile just doesn't come to mind(lol)."
"That makes sense... Wow, that's amazing! Is this the remains of a volcanic crater?"
"Given the shape, it seems likely. I don't know the details, though."
"Why don't you go a little further forward to take the photo?"
"No, this is good enough."
"Won't it be a bad shot?"
"No, what if I fall?"
"You won't fall. Even if you do, you'll stop right there, so it's okay."
"No, what if i don't stop."

I read in a book that in Christian countries、personal names are often taken from the names of saints and the like、and there isn't much variety、so 'Rudolf' may just be an idea I came up with based on my Japanese way of thinking.
But first of all、is there a member of the Austrian royal family named Rudolf (suddenly this name popped into my head. 2024110608:00/japantime)？ I searched the internet 'ルドルフ'.
◆ルドルフ・フランツ・カール・ヨーゼフ・フォン・ハプスブルク＝ロートリンゲン（ドイツ語: Rudolf Franz Karl Joseph von Habsburg-Lothringen, 1858年8月21日 - 1889年1月30日）は、オーストリア皇帝フランツ・ヨーゼフ1世の子で皇太子。ハプスブルク＝ロートリンゲン家の世継ぎとして周囲に期待されたが、父帝との反目や政治的対立などから孤立し、男爵令嬢マリー・フォン・ヴェッツェラと謎の死を遂げた（「マイヤーリンク事件」）。その死については、今もなお謎に包まれている。from wiki.
◆Rudolf, Crown Prince of Austria (Rudolf Franz Karl Josef; 21 August 1858 – 30 January 1889) was the only son and third child of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria and Duchess Elisabeth of Bavaria (Sisi).

"Cropped photograph of German SS officer and Commandant of Auschwitz, Rudolf Höss"
◆Rudolf Franz Ferdinand Höss (also Höß, Hoeß, or Hoess; German: [hœs]; 25 November 1901 – 16 April 1947) was a German SS officer and the commandant of the Auschwitz concentration camp. After the defeat of Nazi Germany and the end of World War II, he was convicted in Poland and executed for war crimes committed on the prisoners of the Auschwitz concentration camp and for his role in the Holocaust.
Höss was the longest-serving commandant of Auschwitz Concentration Camp (from 4 May 1940 to November 1943, and again from 8 May 1944 to 18 January 1945). He tested and implemented means to accelerate Hitler's order to systematically exterminate the Jewish population of Nazi-occupied Europe, known as the Final Solution. On the initiative of one of his subordinates, Karl Fritzsch, Höss introduced the pesticide Zyklon B to be used in gas chambers, where more than a million people were killed.
Höss was hanged in 1947 following a trial before the Polish Supreme National Tribunal. During his imprisonment, at the request of the Polish authorities, Höss wrote his memoirs, released in English under the title Commandant of Auschwitz: The Autobiography of Rudolf Hoess. from wiki.

"Cropped photograph of Führer of the Nazi Party, Rudolf Hess"
◆Rudolf Walter Richard Hess (Heß in German; 26 April 1894 – 17 August 1987) was a German politician and a leading member of the Nazi Party in Nazi Germany. Appointed Deputy Führer to Adolf Hitler in 1933, Hess held that position until 1941, when he flew solo to Scotland in an attempt to negotiate the United Kingdom's exit from the Second World War. He was taken prisoner and eventually convicted of crimes against peace. He was still serving his life sentence at the time of his suicide in 1987.
Hess enlisted as an infantryman in the Imperial German Army at the outbreak of World War I. He was wounded several times during the war and was awarded the Iron Cross, 2nd Class, in 1915. Shortly before the war ended, Hess enrolled to train as an aviator, but he saw no action in that role. He left the armed forces in December 1918 with the rank of Leutnant der Reserve. In 1919, Hess enrolled in the University of Munich, where he studied geopolitics under Karl Haushofer, a proponent of the concept of Lebensraum ('living space'), which became one of the pillars of Nazi ideology. Hess joined the Nazi Party on 1 July 1920 and was at Hitler's side on 8 November 1923 for the Beer Hall Putsch, a failed Nazi attempt to seize control of the government of Bavaria. While serving a prison sentence for this attempted coup, he assisted Hitler with Mein Kampf, which became a foundation of the political platform of the Nazi Party.
After Hitler became Chancellor in January 1933, Hess was appointed Deputy Führer of the Nazi Party in April. He was elected to the Reichstag in the March elections, was made a Reichsleiter of the Nazi Party in June and in December 1933 he became Minister without Portfolio in Hitler's cabinet. He was also appointed in 1938 to the Cabinet Council and in August 1939 to the Council of Ministers for Defence of the Reich. Hitler decreed on the outbreak of war on 1 September 1939 that Hermann Göring was his official successor, and named Hess as next in line. In addition to appearing on Hitler's behalf at speaking engagements and rallies, Hess signed into law much of the government's legislation, including the Nuremberg Laws of 1935, which stripped the Jews of Germany of their rights in the lead-up to the Holocaust.
By the start of the war, Hess was sidelined from most important decisions, and many in Hitler's inner circle thought him to be mad. On 10 May 1941, Hess made a solo flight to Scotland, where he hoped to arrange peace talks with the Duke of Hamilton, whom he believed to be a prominent opponent of the British government's war policy. The British authorities arrested Hess immediately on his arrival and held him in custody until the end of the war, when he was returned to Germany to stand trial at the 1946 Nuremberg trials of major war criminals. During much of his trial, Hess claimed to be suffering from amnesia, but he later admitted to the court that this had been a ruse. The court convicted him of crimes against peace and of conspiracy with other German leaders to commit crimes. He served a life sentence in Spandau Prison; the Soviet Union blocked repeated attempts by family members and prominent politicians to procure his early release. While still in custody as the only prisoner in Spandau, he hanged himself in 1987 at the age of 93.
After his death, the prison was demolished to prevent it from becoming a neo-Nazi shrine. His grave, bearing the inscription "Ich hab's gewagt" (I dared it), became a site of regular pilgrimage and demonstrations by Neo-Nazis. In 2011, authorities refused to renew the lease on the gravesite, and his remains were exhumed and cremated and the gravestone destroyed. from wiki.

ゲームクリエイターを夢見て、日本電子専門学校情報処理科を卒業した後、1986年に任天堂に入社。初期は当時の製造本部情報開発部に配属され、最初に『夢工場ドキドキパニック』（後に登場キャラクターをマリオシリーズのキャラクターに差し替え海外で発売された『Super Mario Bros. 2』及び日本でも逆輸入として発売された『スーパーマリオUSA』）でアシスタントディレクターとして主要なデザインを手がけた。それ以降、宮本茂の下でスーパーマリオシリーズなどで監督業を担う中、マリオシリーズのキャラクターがカートでレースを繰り広げる『スーパーマリオカート』を開発し、大ヒットを収めた。マリオカートシリーズでは、『マリオカートアドバンス』と『マリオカート ダブルダッシュ!!』を除き全作品に関わっている。
"Does the presence or absence of mountains in a given direction affect the level of radiation in different locations?"
"Hmm, I wonder? That's probably a factor, but... aren't wind and rain the biggest factors? I think most of the radiation released into the atmosphere during the hydrogen explosion was carried by the wind, fell to the ground with rain, and pooled in low-lying areas as puddles, which were then absorbed by the soil. But I've only just begun to desperately learn about radiation since the nuclear accident, so I can't say for sure."
"It's not just someone else's problem..."
"Of course... Oh, monkeys?!"
"Huh?"
"Look! Monkeys!"
"…Oh, really! Monkeys... Monkeys! Monkeys! What?! There are so many of them! Their faces are red! Oh, monkeys with their babies! Are there a lot of baby monkeys? A troupe of monkeys?
Wow, monkeys live such normal lives... Well, of course they do (laughs). It was my first time seeing wild monkeys! Thanks to you, I got to see something great."
"Why would there be a group of monkeys in a place like this?"
"Huh? If there are bears, it wouldn't be surprising if there were monkeys living here too."
"The altitude here is too high for a group of monkeys to live here!"
"I'm quite an animal lover, and I know a lot about their biology. So I can say this with more certainty than I do about radiation: there's no way a group of monkeys could be in a place like this!"
"Really? Is there no food for the monkeys at the foot of the mountain?... That just doesn't seem possible these days..."
When I heard Honda-kun's explanation, the effects of radiation naturally came to mind.
Honda-kun said that later, when he asked someone knowledgeable about monkey ecology for their opinion on the matter, he received the response, "At the very least, it is extremely rare for a group of monkeys to live at such a high altitude."
Well, of course they grew rice (at the time, the rice was really ripe).
"If we go a little further down this road, you'll see Lake Inawashiro."
"Huh? The patrol car I just saw there said Ishikawa Prefectural Police."
"Oh, I think they're here to help from other prefectures. There were more of them right after the disaster, but I think the prefectural police are still overwhelmed with guarding the nuclear power plant evacuation zone and are short-staffed."
I don't think I saw any police cars the day before. - Naturally, we also saw vehicles engaged in reconstruction work near the sea in Soma, as well as some regular vehicles on the road.

Similar to North Vietnam and Cambodia, Sihanouk-san, who is pro-American (and secretly pro-China, lol), created a patriotic front similar in character to the National Liberation Front in South Vietnam, making Cambodia safer for China. However, China does not necessarily desire war. Rather, it would prefer that peace be restored to ensure China's stability.

8ーーーー40年前ーーーー
増井さんが出演された
「月刊にいがた」のトークショーを
聞いた者です。
当時は新潟大学を休学されて
ロッキン・オンで働いていたと
記憶しています。
当時のロッキン・オンも280円で
１番安い音楽雑誌でした。
●ロッキン・オンで働ける事になったが
給料が支払われず、渋谷氏に訴えたら
ポケットの中からしわくちゃの
4万円を渡された。
を皮切りに、楽屋落ちのような
編集部ネタ（ブラック）を筆頭に
●ミック・カーンが納豆好き
とかアーティストの裏情報等
インターネットも無い時代に
編集部やアーティストを身近に
感じる裏話満載でとても記憶に
残っています。
当時の編集部がスタッフ4人のうち
２人が新潟出身という事で
渋谷氏もよくトークライブで
新潟にきていました。
増井さんの文章が好きで
増井さんが退職されてから
新潟県民として長年
気になっていましたが
こおいう形で増井節が読めて
とても嬉しいです。
私の勝手な希望は柏崎市長か
柏崎の市議会議員になって
柏崎を盛り立てて欲しいです。
ははは！とても嬉しく懐かしいです。
ミックカーンは納豆好き！そんなこと言ってましたか笑
こんにちは、藤井です。
日本の田舎で3ヶ月近くネットから遠ざかった生活をしていて、いま現実に戻ったらこのような記事を目にして驚いて……もいないのですが、少し寂しい気持ちでもあります。増井さんはいつまでも元気よく、今後もさらなる名調子を続けていただきたいと思っています。
