Description

Popular music in Japan has long been under the overwhelming influence of American and Latin American popular music since 1945 when Japan was defeated in World War II. Beginning with gunka and enka, and tracing the birth of hit songs in the record industry, the adoption of western genres, the rise of Japanese folk and rock, domestic exoticism as a new trend, and J-Pop, Popular Music in Japan is a comprehensive discussion of the evolution of popular music in Japan. In eight revised and updated essays written in English by renowned Japanese scholar Toru Mitsui, this book tells the story of popular music in Japan since the beginning of the 20th century with a focus on the years since the Meiji Restoration when Japan began positively embracing the West.
