<title>B'z - Any Good?</title>
<description> Just heard a track from this Asian rock band and really liked it. Can anyone tell me what the rest of their material is like and which albums are the best. Cheers and have a good weekend in advance.</description><link>http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,915203,915203#msg-915203</link><lastBuildDate>Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:45:22 +1000</lastBuildDate>

All over the place style-wise,and i&quot;m thinking most of their stuff is sung in japanese(?). Wish Tak would do another TMG cd. Now THAT was stellar! T]]></description>

Their music is never boring.<br /><br />I would recommend their album &quot;Loose&quot; from 1995, which I think is one of the easiest &quot;accessible&quot; for Non-Japanese people<br /><br />Wanted to give you some YT-links, but my favorites are in Japanese language so what can I do.... ?!? ( CD &quot;Loose&quot; track 4 - incredible!)<br />Really enjoy the singer Koshi Inaba who puts in this special kind of melancholy in his singing.<br /><br />PS: Can remember an interview with Jack Blades for TMG1 where he said to me when he walks the street with Tak Matsumoto in Japan he thinks he is with Elvis or the Beatles in their heyday, such are the reactions...]]></description>
