Yusaku Matsuda was a renowned Japanese actor famous for his influential roles in film and television during the 1970s and 1980s. Born on September 21, 1949, Matsuda swiftly rose to prominence due to his charismatic screen presence and versatility in acting. Although he was primarily celebrated for his acting career, he also made notable ventures into music, showcasing another dimension of his artistic expression.

The releases such as "YUSAKU MATSUDA 1978-1987 (2021 Remaster)" and "DEJA-VU" indicate remastered versions and collections of his musical work, which have been made available to the public posthumously. These compilations reflect Matsuda's lesser-known musical side and serve as a tribute to his multidimensional talent. His work with the D.F. Nuance Band and releases like "INTERIOR" and "HARDEST NIGHT LIVE" demonstrate an exploration into music that mirrored the intensity and passion he was famous for on the big screen. Though his life was cut short by bladder cancer in 1989 at the age of 39, Yusaku Matsuda’s enduring influence in Japanese culture continues through both his iconic film roles and his contributions to music, memorialized in collections like "Yusaku Matsuda Sound Memorial Matsuriuta."
