TAK MATSUMOTO GROUP is back with their second album after 2 decades of their first opus, and it’s the right opportunity to revisit that very recommended debut CD: “TMG I“.
Tak Matsumoto is one of the most famous Rock guitar virtuosos in Japan. He was leader of a popular band called B’z that sold nearly 60 million albums in Japan. He became so popular Gibson guitars made him their first Asian signature guitar player.
During several years Matsumoto planned to create a band in a U.S. hard rock style, melodic, with a classic ’80s sound & feel but also adding a special ‘Asian touch’. For that matter, he was looking an American singer – enter Mr. Big’s Eric Martin, a vocalist / musician hugely popular in Japan.
