TV appearances: Sound Inn “S”

Sound Inn “S”

Sound Inn “S” (サウンド・イン”S”) was a Japanese music television program broadcast by TBS every Saturday between April 1974 and March 1981. The program primarily featured Japanese popular music, although internationally known performers occasionally appeared during their visits to Japan.

The Runaways appeared on the program shortly after arriving in Japan in late May 1977. The band performed three songs live, and after the first song, Cherie was interviewed by hosts Ito Yukari and Hatsumi Shibata.

Description:

Several versions of this recording are in circulation. Some include the “DEPAS” logo, while others do not. However, all appear to originate from the same VHS source, as they contain the same missing section between the end of Neon Angels On The Road To Ruin and the beginning of Cherry Bomb.
