Soundtrack to my teenage years

I saw this elsewhere. Who exactly was he?

Yes, jog my memory please.

bassist in the group Japan.

I am cultured.

According to my dp the finest bassist ever!It was the new romantic anthem Ghosts

thats v sad news, i was a huge japan fan back in the day :(

Me too lou was in love with david sylvian

how sad, he was very ill wasn't he. :(

I loved japan - I remember going to see them at the Hammersmith Odeon (when it was still called that!) back in about 1982 as a wide eyed teenager. He was lovely. Their albums are fabulous, especially gentlemen take polaroids. I feel quite sad about this.

yes prolesworth, in fact I said to my dh just this evening that Mk used to shave his eyebrows off and how it made him look very strange! He was also a talented sculptor as I recall.
