Van Halen/Switzerland 1984

“VAN HALEN in 1984” is an unexplored region of the rock world where not a single satisfactory soundboard was left behind, even though it was at its historic peak. Introducing a live album that allows you to experience the real scene that every rock fan wants. This work includes “Winterthur performance on August 31, 1984”. This is an exquisite audience recording that conveys a scene from the legendary “MONSTERS OF ROCK TOUR 1984”. Speaking of “MONSTERS OF ROCK TOUR 1984”, not only two titles will be released simultaneously this week, but the masterpiece “STOCKHOLM 1984” also reigns as a standard. We will leave the summary of activities in 1984 to the explanation of “MONSTERS OF ROCK 1984” released at the same time, but here we will check the positional relationship of each title from the details of the legendary festival tour.・August 18th “MONSTERS OF ROCK 1984” ・August 25th “STOCKHOLM 1984” ・August 31st: Winterthur ←★This work★ ・September 1st: Karlsruhe ・September 2nd: Nuremberg September 5th: Rome, September 7th: Turin, 7 performances in total. This is the whole picture of “MONSTERS OF ROCK TOUR 1984”, but the Winterthur performance of this work is its third performance. “MONSTERS OF ROCK 1984” → “STOCKHOLM 1984” → This work is a live album series where you can fully experience three consecutive performances step by step. This work recorded at such a show has a really wonderful sound. Although it is a vintage audience to the last, the master freshness is exquisite. There is no clouding or distortion due to dubbing deterioration, and the crisp performance sound stands out in a clear atmosphere, and it is delivered straight to your fingertips. What’s more, the “Stadion Schützenwiese” where the incident took place is an open space soccer stadium, so of course there was no response. The sound emitted from the PA is so fresh that it feels like it has jumped through 36 years of time and space. Moreover, this work is the highest peak edition that pursues the possibility of such a famous recording. Actually, compared to the two works “MONSTERS OF ROCK 1984” and “STOCKHOLM 1984”, the original sound of the Swiss recording was a little dull. Therefore, this work has been carefully mastered. Not only does it make the pitch accurate, but it also organizes the balance and ringing of each range. The entire ensemble has been polished to make it sound harmonious. The fresh sound depicts the scene of “MONSTERS OF ROCK TOUR 1984”, which is a dream of all rock fans. Although the set is the same as in other countries, let’s organize it here as well.・Flame Fuse: On Fire (★) / Runnin’ With The Devil / You Really Got Me ・Dark Law: Everybody Wants Some!! ・Martial Law: Unchained ・Diver Down: Little Guitars / (Oh) Pretty Woman ・1984 :Hot For Teacher/House Of Pain (★)/I’ll ​​Wait/Jump/Panama *Note: Songs marked with “★” were not played during the reorganization era. …and it looks like this. The show where this decisive set is played with the potential of a band that has just created the famous album “1984” is truly paradise. It’s so wonderful that I can’t think of anything more. That performance alone is enough to fill my heart, but this work has an even more special feel to it. Actually, this show was also VAN HALEN’s first Swiss performance. Unlike other countries, there were not many bands performing in Switzerland on the “MONSTERS OF ROCK TOUR”, and there were only three bands: AC/DC, VAN HALEN, and MOTLEY CRUE. Of course, the headliner was AC/DC, but they have performed in Switzerland many times before, so it wasn’t that special. In other words, the most interesting band for the audience is VAN HALEN, who they are seeing for the first time. In the sound of this work, the main character is the solid performance sound, but at the same time, you can feel the atmosphere of the scene where expectations and excitement are flowing. In 1984, VAN HALEN was enjoying unprecedented success and performing on what could be called the supreme stage of American HR. The Swiss performance was a great show with the added shock of a first-time experience. This work is also a documentary album where you can witness such a unique scene with real sound and have the ultimate experience. A live album that brings out the emotion, surprise, and excitement of 1984 directly from the speakers. Schutzenwiese, Winterthur, Switzerland 31st August 1984 TRULY PERFECT SOUND (71:00) 1. Intro. 2.
