"Sunday Paradise" is a photo collection by music writer and producer Kiyori Matsumoto. This book is a documentary that captures bands performing on the street on Sundays in the pedestrianized paradise (Hokoten) of Harajuku in the late 1980s. Hokoten is the place that gave birth to Japan's unique fashion and culture, such as the Takenoko-zoku and Roller-zoku, and was a place (a gateway to success) that played a part in the band boom of the late 1980s. As bands such as THE BOOM, BAKU, and JUN SKY WALKER(S) gained idol-like popularity and created a frenzy, Matsumoto visited Hokoten on Sundays for a year and a half from the fall of 1988. While listening to their performances, he captured the various expressions of the free-spirited and naive band members and the "Hokoten breath" created by the fans surrounding them. It is a portrait and reportage of the young people (band members) born in the late 1980s.
