Japanese funk/soul band Q.A.S.B., formed in 2008, pays tribute to Pizzicato Five with this single of two excellent covers: "Thank You" (from "This Year's Girl" (1991)) and "Week-End" (from "Playboy & Playgirl" (1998))!
Nothing much else to say for now except that I wish I'd have heard of Q.A.S.B. earlier.
