Taiji just didn't fit with Loudness. He was too talented for them. Haha. Akira Takasaki is really great, but their music didn't seem to harmonize with Taiji's overpowering bass and composition skills, which were all overshadowed in Loudness because of Takasaki's ego.
yeah this is their best line-up, i think, the most influential bassist in japanese metal history, with the most influential asian guitarist overseas that influenced one of our guitar idols, PAUL GILBERT
Agreed! I'm a huge Loudness fan, and love all of their line-ups, including the one with Mike Vescera, but none of these was better than Akira/Masaki/Taiji/Higuchi... The self-titled album is amazing!
