The Tempters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tempters were the bad boys of Japan's Group Sounds pop music era. Featuring a charismatic lead vocalist Kenichi Hagiwara, who was also known by the nickname of Shoken, they rivaled The Tigers for the top spot in the Japan rock scene hierarchy. The band also featured drummer Hiroshi Oguchi, who later formed the glam rock band Vodka Collins. Both Oguchi and Hagiwara are now successful actors.
