Sakamoto, Ryuichi

Thousand Knives Of

Reissue of Ryuichi Sakamoto's first solo album originally released in 1978 on the sought-after Better Days label. Sakamoto was a member of Yellow Magic Orchestra at the time but the group hadn't released their first album yet. Featuring Sakamoto on a wide range of synthesizers and keyboards programmed by Hideki Matsutake, and accompanied by a few musicians including Haruomi Hosono and Pecker, 'Thousand Knives' was a blueprint for the YMO sound and includes cult classics that were to become live favourites.
