Leif Garret and me in Tokyo in 1979.
Watch this if you love Tokyo, Lost In Translation, Bill Murray and Roxy Music!
My friend, Tokyo street photographer Charlie Kirk, has some of his photographs in this brilliant new book TOKYO-GA Charity Photo Book. All of the profits go to our beloved Japan. Please take a moment and check it out. Hope to see you soon back in Tokyo Charlie!

I am on my way to New York! I am doing some press on my new book, “Like It Was Yesterday” which now available at Ralph Lauren on Madison Ave and at Colette Paris. I am going to try and drop in on some Fashion Week parties and get some cool photographs.
Thank you Dave Powell and Shoot Tokyo for the cool interview. I miss Japan and promise to be back in a few months.
I talk all the time about Music Life magazine from the seventies. They used to publish truck loads of my photos! The magazine was fat like a telephone directory and almost impossible to find in the USA. I was on their mailing list so I got free copies. All of the cool pop stars at the time were also on the mailing list for free magazines. I remember the intense aroma of the Japanese ink. All of my friends and I would smell the ink of the magazine before we would look at the photos! Sadly, Music Life closed down in 1985, but I still have my photos and those great memories.
