Watanabe learned guitar at the age of 12 from Sadanori Nakamure at the Yamaha Music School in Tokyo. He released his first album in 1971. In 1979, he formed a jazz rock band with some of Japan's leading studio musicians, and recorded the album Kylyn. During that year, he toured with the pop band #YellowMagicOrchestra. In the 1980s, he toured as guest soloist with Steps, the #BreckerBrothers, and Word of Mouth, led by #JacoPastorius. Watanabe created the #jazzrock/ #jazzfusion band Mobo in 1983 with Mitsuru Sawamura (saxophone), Ichiko Hashimoto (piano), Gregg Lee (bass), Shuichi Murakami (drums), and Kiyohiko Senba. During the eighties Watanabe released the jazz-rock albums To Chi Ka (1980), Mobo Club (1983), Mobo Splash (1985), and Spice of Life (1987). A DVD was issued from the tour which featured drummer Bill Bruford and bassist Jeff Berlin, who also played on the record. In the 1990s Kazumi assembled an all-Japanese line-up called #ResonanceVox (Vagabonde Suzuki on bass, Rikiya Higashihara on drums, Yahiro Tomohiro on percussion). This band has released several adventurous fusion albums. -From Kazumi Watanabe Wikipedia Due to the recent news of Kazumi Watanabe's hospitalization and the fact that there are no videos that compile some of his solos together, I felt that this video (even as crudely edited as this one) deserved to be shown, to show how insanely gifted and talented Kazumi Watanabe is.
