TRACKS: 3. Kitchen Table SEE: Brilliant Ideas Works Of Yasuharu Konishi 1986-2018 6. Raincoat Shuffle (4:02)  |
NOTES: In the Emperor's Closetliner notes, Konishi writes: "I offered Mr. Seishirou Kusunose two sets of lyrics--this one, "Raincoat Shuffle," and another called "Kitchen Table." If my memory is correct, we had a meeting at a place called Strawberry Farm in Shinjuku. As when writing for Mr. Yoshitaka Minami, I feel more embarrassed writing lyrics for male singers, such as "your butt is a pancake, sa" and "it's like dark toast, da ne," than writing women's words. I feel so embarrassed that I want to die when I use male words such as "sa" and "da ne" so many times . But I used them a lot. "

TRACKS: Sex Machine (4:32)   |
ALSO AVAILABLE ON: Emperor's Closet: Selected Works of Konishi Yasuharu 1987-1994
|
NOTES: Pizzicato Five recorded their version on 1990's Soft Landing on the Moon.
In the Emperor's Closetliner notes, Konishi writes: "I originally wrote BAZARR's "Sex Machine" as a song for Pizzicato Five. When Takao Tajima-kun joined Pizzicato Five, he and I and Keitaro Takanami-kun came up with one song each to put on a demo tape, and this is the song I wrote at that time. After that, I put it aside and forgot about it until Director Michael came to me and asked if he could use the song for BAZAAR, a new group he was working with at that time. I think Mr. Masatoku Sasaji produced it. Furthermore, Yoshie-san, who is now playing an active part in Cornelius' band and others, was the drummer of this group. To add one more thing, A.K.I., who has covered Pizzicato Five's "Banji kaichou" [Tout Va Bien], said that she liked this song best among my works. She might be mean-spirited."

ALSO AVAILABLE ON: Emperor's Closet: Selected Works of Konishi Yasuharu 1987-1994
|
NOTES: In the Emperor's Closetliner notes, Konishi writes: "I wonder whether or not there are people who still remember the artist Yui Haga. At one time, she was promoted as a mysterious, faceless idol whom Mr. Hikaru Ijuuin placed in a Nippon Broadcasting radio program. This song, "Hoshizora no PASSPORT," is a rewrite of the idol-pop parody, "Sanso [Oxygen] de lululu," which was included on the album, "Naiyou no nai ongakukai" [No Content Concert], by the group, Namafuku. The singer is Ms. Yukari Shizaki, who played Haniwa-chan [children's show character]. She is also the wife of Michael Kawai, the director who is in charge of this album. Also included is its B-side, "...suki desu" [I Like You]. This is a song that I reworked from demo tapes I made before forming Pizzicato Five. In this same fashion, I made "Na mida no PIZZICATO" [Pizzicato Tears] for Shinobu Nakayama (see below), but unfortunately I couldn't include it here.
Words are by Tamio Okuda (Unicorn, Puffy).

NOTES: The group that featured Tamio Okuda before he went solo and produced Puffy. Okuda turns up on Soft Landing on the Moonon the track "This Can't Be Love."
In the Emperor's Closetnotes, Konishi writes: " I worried my head over their offer wanting me to combine songs by each of their two members, Tamio Okuda and Yoshiharu Abe, and create one song out of them. Ultimately, I used Abe's song for the hook part and Okuda's song for the verse part, which recalls the sound of TM Network, and connected them by the orchestral sound, "jan." For merely this "jan," I was given a writing credit and received some royalties. This is a perk."
(TM Network featured Tetsuya Komuro, before he went on to fame as the producer of trf, globe, and Namie Amuro.)

Princess Princess' Kaori Okui-san liked the lyrics of this song, "TV Movie," very much, and that brought about the opportunity to work on some songswith her. By the way, after the completion of this Sasajies album, I received a very heavy package from Mr. Masatoku Sasaji, and I wondered what it was as I opened it. To my surprise, it was a gun. I was astonished, because it was the first time I had ever received a model gun as a token of thanks for writing lyrics."

|
TRACKS: Dakishimetai (4:57)    Boyfriend SEE: Ace, Boyfriend Girl Talk  Our Day Will Come  Etude (5:08)    Bedroom  |
NOTES: In the Emperor's Closetliner notes, Konishi writes: "I had a hand in almost all of the arrangements on Ms. Mutsumi Inoue's first mini-album. Tokyo's Coolest Combo provided the backing, which features vibes on all songs. "Etude" was written with the request that it have a feel similar to Francoise Hardy's "Sayonara o oshiete" [Comment Te Dire Adieu?]. "Dakishimetai" is a song I originally wrote for Taurus Records' Kana Maeda. Because I believed that the song would definitely fit Mutsumi-chan's fresh image, I pushed for her to cover my song, getting involved even to the point of directing its video clip. We filmed in the morning at Chikuji, Ueno, and Tokyo Tower, and it is one of my favorite videos. Anyway, I like this "Dakishimetai" very much, because it has the catchiest lyrics and melody amongst all my works. Nothing could make me happier than if various female singers covered this song."

I remember well feeling very anxious, because I couldn't understand at all the concept that Mr. Takkyuu Ishino explained to me at our meeting on the arrangement. And one more thing that left a strong impression concerned Mr. Pierre Taki, who came to the studio. Although he was there the whole day, he didn't listen to a single thing, remaining in the lobby watching TV and having meetings. I was surprised."

Miharu Koshi: Been around since the '80s, and made a few excellent albums with Harry Hosono.

Reggae Disco Rockers: Exactly what they say they are. From the mid-'90s.
Ichikawa Miwako: Doesn't seem to be a recording artist, instead a model and writer.
