== History ==
=== Early works: 1988–1990 ===
Tak Matsumoto, who was already a professional guitarist in band TM Network led by Tetsuya Komuro, has been extremely busy with various recording sessions and live performances. On May 21, 1988, Tak released his first solo album, ''Thousand Wave''. He saw this as a finishing of a chapter as a solo guitarist, and began his search for band members. He later met vocalist Koshi Inaba, who would later start the band with him. At the time, Japan's music scene was loaded with many new bands being created. With all the digital sounds in mainstream music, the only sounds that they felt could not be expressed and replicated were the guitar and the human voice. As a result, they decided to keep it a two-man unit. On September 21 1988, B'z, with their first album, ''B’z'', and single, "Dakara Sono Te Wo Hanashite (だからその手を離して)", made their debut. Their music was very much a product of its times, with synthesizers and samplers sharing equal time with Tak's guitar, producing an experimental sound, very different from their well-known hard rock sound of today.Source: Wikipedia
