Blues Interaction - Live In Japan 1986 Is a 1986 live album by blues singer and guitarist Otis Rush. Recorded with local Japanese band Break Down, the album has been panned by many critics because of what was considered to be the backing band's rudimentary knowledge of blues music. Ironically, Rush has dual citizenship in the United States and Japan. His current wife is a native of the country. Originally the album was released in Japan only by P-Vine Records but was subsequently released in 1996 in the United Kingdom by Sequel Records.
