Instead of writing a book I'll write a blog

Well, I have been in the music field for 50 years and play in many countries but mainly in Japan.
In fact I started my musical carrier in France 1961.
I was the lead guitarist of a well know band called "Les Champions" and we even played with Gene Vincent for a month when he performed in Paris and other places.
I decided to leave the group and record solo end of 1963.
My first try was a hit and a big surprise for me. I just turned 20 and I found myself with a hit in 45 countries.
It was a rumba "La Playa" and I used an acoustic guitar instead of an electric one.

My first encounter with what will become my new country a few years later was in 1967. The people were kind, they did love music (including mine) and the food was great. After my second visit I decided to learn the Japanese language. In 1973 I decided to move from Paris to Tahiti. I lived there 2 years and met my wife in 1975 during another concert tour in Japan. I didn't know that I will fall in love and move from Tahiti to Japan at that time or that I will take the Japanese citizenship a few years later. Many things did happen afterwards. A daughter in 1976 and a son in 1979, TV shows, Radio, Movies and concerts. I was really busy and didn't have time to go to Europe.

My parents came to visit instead and they also loved the country. I took the Japanese citizenship in 1985 and will let you know what I did next.
Till next time then :)
