Nippon Budokan, Tokyo March 1979 concert poster
Original first printing concert poster advertising British rock group Japan at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo [Japan] on Tuesday, 6th March, 1979. Presented by Udo Artists, the band was touring in support of the Obscure Alternatives album – their second studio album, produced by Ray Singer, and released on 27th October, 1978 on Hansa Records. Containing the singles “Sometimes I Feel So Low” and “Deviation”, the album was commercially unsuccessful in the UK, but garnered moderate success in Japan, where it peaked just outside the Top 20. For what it’s worth, Obscure Alternatives was remastered and re-released in 2004, and included a video for “Sometimes I Feel So Low”. Never seen another one of these.
The poster measures 51.4 x 73.2 cm (approx. 20.2″ by 28.8″ inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, coated paper stock. There is a pin hole to the top left and right corners, a small diagonal crease to the top right corner, and a one inch closed rip to the bottom left corner, else in remarkably near excellent unfolded condition. Feel free to email us with any questions you may have concerning this item. Additional images of the poster available on request.
