This is "S.S.T. Band Live" (PCVP-10405), a 1990 live concert of the S.S.T. Band released only in Japan on VHS tape.
The S.S.T. Band was the in-house band of Sega, the video game developer. The band was composed of a number of video game programmers & composers, some of which became rather famous in the video game music scene. The line up in this live concert consists of Jouji "GALAXY" Iijima & PRETTY "Mickey" Koichi on guitars, Kimitaka "HARRIER KIMICHAN" Matsumae & Hiroshi "風車のHIRO" Kawaguchi on keyboards, Masato "TURBOKUN" Saito on bass, and Takehiko "POPPO" Tanabe on drums. Together, they play thru a number of songs from Sega's popular arcade franchises at the time, namely After Burner, Galaxy Force, OutRun, Thunder Blade, & Power Drift.
Grab a controller and kick back for a truly rockin' concert! Enjoy!

(Not sponsored) While the S.S.T. Band was dissolved many years ago, some of the members (like PRETTY K.H.) went on to their own, independent band called "Blind Spot" which continued to perform and release new music until just a few months before this video went up.
