Yes! This is it! You are listening to my audio cassette tape for Berklee Scholarship Audition. This changed my life!
A little backstory… I was studying Russian at University around that time thinking maybe I can play my guitar as hobby 😔… BUT I worked hard & sent my demo tape and my essay to Berklee College Of Music in 1984. THEN Berklee offered me $4700USD towards tuition including $250 John Abercrombie Jazzmaster Award (tuition was $2500 per semester back then!) … THIS gave me a chance to go to America! Please keep your dreams big and do it!

Hey Tomo! This is fantastic. I have been playing guitar since I was 9 years old. I didn’t play any sports or anything, just guitar, and I played in a classic rock cover band for a majority of my childhood. Many of my peers from that part of my life had great guitar players they idolized. I did not fall into that crowd, but nowadays I’ve found a revitalized inspiration from hearing you speak about guitar, and listening to things like this. Thank you for being so passionate about music, and SHARING that with the world. I don’t think i’ve been more impacted by another guitar player like I have learning from you. Thank you! Lots of love.

Thank you! Well.. Larry Carlton is one of reason I wanted to go to America! I loved his style so much! Then I was influenced Steve Lukather.

1984年、懐かしいあの頃のサウンド❣️😍 大好きです♫🤗 その頃 、吉田次郎さんはバークリーで教え始めていたのかな? 今の事は、放射線で脳を焼き過ぎて記憶出来ませんが、、、あの頃は、確かオーケストラと合唱の仕事、芸術祭参加作品・現代音楽作品の制作と電子音楽作品のレコーディングで非常に忙しかった頃、かな?
