I've heard of them and will have a listen this evening to refresh my memory. I'll be hunting for more obscure 80s bands too"Japan may be one of the most popular groups you've never heard of."

Unfortunately classed as a “New Romantic” band limited their appeal I think. A band that developed as they grew from a New York Dolls persona to cutting edge electronica. When you look at their line up at the end there was Sylvian, Jansen, Karn and Barbieri. All still highly regarded musicians."Japan may be one of the most popular groups you've never heard of."
