Hai! (Live in Japan) is a 1982 live album by the U.K. industrial band Cabaret Voltaire.[1] It was recorded at the Tsubaki House in Tokyo, Japan on 23 March 1982, and was released on CD in 1991 by Mute Records Ltd.[2][3] The original master tapes being lost, the CD was transferred from a vinyl copy (unfortunately, a US pressing was used, with significantly poorer sound and more surface noise than a Japanese original).
The performance on the album reflected the band's move towards a more funk-oriented sound.[4] Alan Fish had joined the band by this time on drums and percussion, replacing Chris Watson.[4]
The album reached number five in the UK Indie Chart in 1982.[5]
