JOE LIVE from JAPAN is the perfect album demonstrating the breadth of his chart topping hits and the vitality of his impeccable stage show.
In this live performance, Joe resurrected the ghost of R&B past with a full musical band, complete with a resonant upright bass. Joe used his silken vocals to work his way through key tracks from Signature, iTunes' Best R&B Album of 2009, satisfying the full house all along the way.
