Tokyo Jukebox 3

Marty Friedman's presence in the world of music, the world of guitar, and Japanese pop culture is mystifying, bizarre, and nothing short of inspiring. Starting in 1988 with Dragon's Kiss, Friedman has regularly put out well received solo records. Tokyo Jukebox 3 is the latest in this distinguished, ongoing line. As the title suggests it's the third in this series of albums featuring covers of Japanese songs and follows on from Tokyo Jukebox in 2009 and Tokyo Jukebox 2 in 2011.

Let's all enjoy the fruits of his labour of love on Tokyo Jukebox 3, where Friedman takes J-Pop hits by the likes of Da Pump, Momoiro Clover Z, Sekai No Owari and Little Glee Monster, and gives them his own charismatic interpretations.
