"1973 Magma" is a reissue of a love song from 50 years ago. At the age of 60, I decided to start a second life as a musician, a career I had only had a short time in while working for a company, and in 2013 I resumed my activities for the first time in 36 years under the stage name "Kou (Kou-chan)-Neo (New)." A rock singer-songwriter from Hitachiota, Ibaraki Prefecture, currently living in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. I takes advantage of the freedom of programming and high-pitched vocals.
"1973 Magma" is a song that Kou-Neo wrote in 1973 when Kou-Neo was a student. It was the fourth original song that I performed in front of an audience, and it was a song that I performed in a band with Neo-Taka at the time. Back then, I didn't play acoustic guitar, but would dance when there was no singing. Kou-Neo has been able to hit the higher notes (reverse voice change) since I started working for a company, so now, since this song has been reissued for the first time in 40 years, I sings it with an 8 capo higher than when it was originally composed. I include the year it was composed at the beginning of my old songs. Is "1973 Magma" proof that this song was composed in 1973?! It's from when I submitted it to a magazine songwriting contest in 1974. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3266466256929890&set=p.3266466256929890&type=3 I also have a live recording of the song, "1973 Magma_1973," recorded at Hitachi Civic Hall in Ibaraki Prefecture on reel-to-reel tape (some audio cuts out). https://youtu.be/wYr1QxFRctU Latest arrangement: https://youtu.be/JRWqYzRLEAM Latest arrangement live video: https://youtu.be/ctQ-CYq37sw Live video of previous arrangement: https://youtu.be/rIEIUtR1itg Reissue unit live video: https://youtu.be/Lgcr8VLiwWY Video list: https://www.youtube.com/@kouneo3746/videos Homepage: https://ameblo.jp/kou-neo/
