Paul McCartney/IL,USA 2002

“DRIVING WORLD TOUR 2002” is the first tour in nine years, and the performance in Japan is also nostalgic. The best video that vividly brings back those memories has been decided to be released. This work was filmed at the “Chicago performance on September 24, 2002”. It is a concert about two months before the performance in Japan. First, let’s imagine the whole picture of the tour. ・April 1st to May 18th: North America # 1 (27 performances) – 4 months later – ・September 21st to October 29th: North America # 2 (23 performances) ← ★ Here ★ ・November 2nd to 5th: Mexico (3 performances) ・November 11th to 18th: Japan (5 performances) A ​​total of 58 performances. This work is the third performance of “North America # 2”, the second half of the tour, so-called “BACK IN THE US”. This Chicago performance is also known as the only soundboard sound source of “BACK IN THE US”, but this work is an audience shot that conveys the “scenery” that spreads beyond that live album with the best quality. Although I wrote “audience shot”, in fact, the quality of this work is different from what you can imagine with that word. It is the 1st gene master released by “KRW_CO” recently, but its image beauty is superb. Although the detailed shooting position is not conveyed, the front row of the second floor seats is a shot that is sure to be a top-down shot, and there is no obstruction between the stage and the camera. Not only the heads and arms of the front row, but even the appearance of the audience in the arena seats is hardly reflected, and the stage completely occupies the field of view, making it a super-excellent viewpoint. Moreover, the stability is also different. Since I don’t know the distance, I can’t judge how far it is zoomed in, but the screen that is so close that I can’t see the edge of the stage does not cause any camera shake, and yet it doesn’t miss the highlights. Even if you shoot the stage directly, the quality is still the same, but screenshots are used extensively, and the scene continues endlessly, almost like a multi-camera pro shot. The sound that matches the scene is also special. It is definitely the audience sound because it absorbs the noise of the venue and the warm chanting, but it reaches straight as if there were no obstructions, and the performance and singing voice are immersed in the show with plenty of clarity. “You can’t ask for a better audience shot” … It is a masterpiece of such a dimension. The “DRIVING WORLD TOUR” drawn with that quality brings back nostalgic scenes of the Japanese performance. The opening performance by Cirque du Soleil, where a silhouette of Paul appears and sings the Beatles’ “Hello Goodby”, makes your heart warm. The piano intro of “The Fool On The Hill”, “Something” played solo on the ukulele throughout, “Lonely Road”, “Michelle”, “Let ‘Em In”, “She’s Leaving Home” that were not seen in the official DVD “BACK IN THE U.S.” Furthermore, everything from the closing “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band/The End” medley to the humorous screen footage reminds me of the Japanese performance. Among them, “Freedom” is different from Japan. You can even witness the masterpiece that was not played after “BACK IN THE US”. Since this is a high-quality video work, the analog sound omissions in the fine details have been thoroughly corrected for this release. It is the best version in the world. (Of course, with the original menu.) Paul has started touring the world for the first time in nine years. This is a masterpiece video that captures his appearance in the best possible way. Not only is it an extremely wonderful rock video, but it’s also the best way to bring back memories of that time and enjoy the “DRIVING WORLD TOUR” in the best seats. Please enjoy it to your heart’s content. Live at United Center, Chicago, Illinois, USA 24th September 2002 AMAZING SHOT!! (167:04) 1. Pre-Show 2. Hello Goodbye 3. Jet 4. All My Lovin’ 5.
