Very cool book with bright pages, visuals and articles highlighting Japanese pop music up until its publish date of 1998. A great snapshot of Jpop at the time.
Description from the book: Explore the wild and wacky world of Japanese pop music (J-Pop) in Nippon Pop, the first full-length book in English and Japanese on the subject.
Written by Steve McClure, Billboard magazine's Japan bureau chief, Nippon Pop blows away the tired cliche about Japanese pop--that it's nothing more than music written and performed by a bunch of no-talent idols--and turns the spotlight onto some of the incredibly cool music now coming out of Japan. Besides focusing on the music itself, Nippon Pop also concentrates on the people who make the music, such as Tetsuya Komuro, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and a host of others--from the famous to the deservedly obscure.
Profusely illustrated, Nippon Pop brings out the color and the craziness of the Japanese pop scene. It's a must for anyone interested in Japan or pop music.
