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.
