The photo was taken by Kenji Miura, one of Japan’s leading music photographers. 352 pages of carefully selected photos from over 100,000 photos taken by veteran photographers over the past 30 years. The format is B4, which is about the same size as one side of a newspaper, and allows you to enjoy 30 years of progress in an impressive size.
Reservations can only be made to order at three locations: Tamio Okuda’s official fan club site, Daikanyama Tsutaya Bookstore, and Hiroshima Tsutaya Bookstore. (The fan club version includes a set of 10 postcards, a postcard in exchange for a digital photo book with 100 photos scheduled to be included, and a postcard in exchange for a digital photo book with 100 photos scheduled to be included in the Tsutaya Shoten version. (with ticket)
At Daikanyama Tsutaya Bookstore and Hiroshima Tsutaya Bookstore, a poster and panel exhibition using special cuts taken from the photo book will be held for two weeks at the same time as pre-orders begin. The photos posted differ at each store. The period is from October 9th to October 23rd.
■Tamio Okuda comment
Big! That’s what I thought. It turned out to be a huge book, really. When I looked at the photos, I remembered a lot of things, such as how I’m starting to lose weight after 30 years, and how surprisingly little the instruments have changed.
The first time I was photographed by Mr. Miura…I don’t remember at all (lol). It was over 30 years ago, so I don’t think Mr. Miura even remembers it. But I remember the first time we talked about how we were both from Hiroshima. When I started playing music, I felt like I was already there.
Mr. Miura’s photo shoots are very quick, and from the perspective of the person being photographed, it’s easy because he can finish the shoot quickly. And I don’t tell them to do this or that pose. Well, I’ll say it a little bit, but it’s nice that the photo is taken before you know it. He’s the best photographer in that respect (lol). I’m sure fans who have supported me for a long time will feel nostalgic, and I would also like people who are interested in photography to take a look at what kind of photos Miura-san has continued to take.
