ROKUSUKE EI, 83. Died July 7, 2016
Wrote the original lyrics to "Ue o Muite Aruko." this song rose to #1 on U.S. charts in 1963 as "Sukiyaki" for Kyu Sakamoto. This is the only Japanese lyric song to ever hit #1 in the United states.
That was a great song.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
