@istevejansen Ah, the eponymous first album - The prominence and significance of the band's name does suggest a boldness and assurance, matched by the choice of cover photo... which I prefer to the illustration on the release I own.

[Richard Taggerty @RichardTaggerty]

Was great to collaborate on the photography. Thanks for inviting me to support that project. #NewMusic #electronicmusic

Memories can surface unbidden, triggered by places, spaces and environments. The way that they can transport us back to another time and previous experiences makes me wonder if the past really does still exist, somewhere… #NewMusic #electronicmusic https://t.co/JJKBI8sVBf

Three quarters of an hour of music now available to listen to if you don't want to listen to the usual stuff thrust at you these days! That'll be the classic album duration. RESOLVE by "Redmantle" #NewMusicDaily #tangerinedream #electonicmusic #saxophone

@CryptoMoose I saw The Blow Monkeys at that venue - they were great. But thanks for posting this as I am going to follow this with more listening of their stuff. Very interesting sax.
I guess it was 10/10 for the evening?

1982 - 'Gentlemen Take Polaroids' or 'Tin Drum? Virgin Records attempt to capitalise on the popularity of JAPAN with a Smash Hits advert

[Richard Taggerty @RichardTaggerty]

@KevinTaggerty Well, you were actually the best brother to go to a Japan concert with as it was just like walking in with David Sylvian himself - right! And of course you made sure I was looking sharp too.

[Richard Taggerty @RichardTaggerty]

Found my concert poster along with other cherished memories..!.......... JAPAN where just great!

@KevinTaggerty @davidbowie_news It's 27" x 40" and looking good @KevinTaggerty
I'm going to frame it. Just 33 years late eh! You'll remember the picture hanging strips were all we had and could afford back in the day!

@davidbowie_news My brother @RichardTaggerty still has an original poster of this... and I am still envious! #DavidBowie

[Richard Taggerty @RichardTaggerty]

My final tweet today is just to share my 1981 Bowie poster. Found with other long lost items in my loft but all in good shape. Here it is, and it's big!

I have found my JAPAN Tin Drum album poster! Finally discovered it in the loft. Carefully rolled with another Japan poster and my Bowie poster, both to follow...

@RichardTaggerty I agree (we have similar taste in music - obviously!) and also good to see John Foxx listed for his dystopian-future 'Metamatic' and Robert Palmer for taking a new direction with 'Clues'. We were lucky to to enjoy so much new innovative music at that time #1980s #80smusic

[Richard Taggerty @RichardTaggerty]

That article has some excellent references. I can only agree. #Japan #Tangerinedream #GaryNuman #OMD #1980s
