I doubt that was the case. YMO were known in the UK and the UK being the frontrunners in experimental music the people would have probably enjoyed this.
@@jamestuff5240 oh really. I can't remember where I've heard of this rumour. I actually wasn't even born in 80' so I don't know the mood of the time at all. The rumour is rather convincing to me because of this eccentric sounds, but OK, it is not true. I appreciate your correction. In that case, I really love the UK as always.
Did YMO (or at least R. Sakamoto) influence Kraftwerks "Computer World"era music?.I'm discovering also they were doing synthpop in the 70s.I' d heard of them, saw some live stuff on tv back then,but now I appreciate their influence.Im 57 btw.
