Yoshio Tabata (田端義夫 Tabata Yoshio, January 1, 1919 in Matsusaka, Mie prefecture, Japan) is a Japanese ryūkōka and enka singer, songwriter and electric guitarist. His debut in 1939 with the song "Shima no Funauta" (島の舟唄 literally "Island Ship Song") had a big impact on Japanese popular music because Japanese popular ryūkōka music of that time was mainly sung by classical music singers. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Yoshio+Tabata">Read more on Last.fm</a>
