Feb 21st ♥ JOHNNY’Sジュニア・スペシャル (JOHNNY’S JUNIOR SPECIAL)

Back in 1974 there was a junior unit called “Johnny’s Junior First Class”, they had 9 members divided into two sub-groups; “Junior Ace” (6 members) who were Hiromi Go-san’s back-dancers, and “Junior Special” (3 members) who were Four Leaves-san’s back-dancers.

Out of this 2 groups, 5 people were picked to release a single… but in the end, only 3 remained in the group. They released their debut single in Feb 21st, 1975 with the song “ベルサイユのばら” (Versailles no Bara) and made their stage debut two days after that.

Those members were:

  • 板野俊雄 -Itano Toshio- (April 26th, 1957 - )… Leader, Toshichan
  • 林正明 -Masaki Hayashi- (August 30th, 1958 - )… Macchan, Dracula
  • 畠山昌久 -Hatakeyama Masahisa- (February 9th, 1958 - May 31st, 2003)… Charlie

They were disbanded 4 years after, to become part of a group called “VIP”, which included female members. Macchan left the group one year later.

Happy 37th Anniversary!
