When Carbone returned to America, feels some kind of magnet pulling him back towards Japan, so asked to his music publisher find a place into a Japanese project. He offered to him, Zito & O’Banion as a working combo, the soundtrack for the Kadokawa movie “Satomi Hakken Den“.
Known in the west as “Legend of Eight Samurai”, the film was the number one Japanese film on the domestic market in 1984, earning ¥ 2.3 billion, and the theme song (a ballad translated “I Don’t Want This Night To End”) the first O’Banion / Carbone big hit in Japan.
The other song composed (with Richie Zito) to the movie, “White Light“, is a very nice commercial poppy AOR tune full of magic.

The music on debut album ”Riding The Wave” is made for the car stereo – top down, sun shining – a love letter to the golden era of FM soft-rock / West Coast AOR plenty soaring harmonies, smooth chord changes and searing guitar solos.
For the album, consisting of originals that sound like a track-list from a 1980 FM radio station, Adam called on the best players in London to create that magic atmosphere from an era when feel-good music ruled the airwaves.
