On the stage from the tour accompanying the release of the album “We Live Here”, the sound source of this day was released with the title “Live in Poland”, but the video has finally appeared. The over two-hour gorgeous stage that opens with “Have You Heard” is a sight to behold, and the live footage of PMG’s large audience is sure to impress. As for the quality, it’s not super clear like digital video in recent years, but both the image and sound quality are very stable, and I think you can enjoy the entire movie stress-free. The official DVD “Imaginary Day Live” includes a wonderful live performance in California from the world tour with “Imaginary Day” released the previous year, but with this item you can enjoy valuable performances from the European leg.

This was a live show after the release of the album “Still Life (Talking)”, and it appears to be the same members from the 1987 Japan tour. He left ECM and moved to Warner. This is a performance that is full of motivation to make a fresh start and reach even higher musical heights. I’ve seen him live three times, and Pat is in the center wearing jeans and messy hair. He played the guitar with a big smile and earnestly. The surrounding members support the ensemble by replacing many instruments. It is a flexible, dynamic, and fulfilling performance.
