Description
The legendary original soundboard recording, unearthed 10 years ago and shocking collectors worldwide, has finally been reissued! This release captures the “February 19, 1992 Nakano Sun Plaza performance,” a superb stereo soundboard recording of Nirvana’s final performance in Japan. Their visit to Japan was a once-in-a-lifetime event. What circumstances led to this miraculous event? Let’s begin by taking a look at their journey at that time.・January 2nd-11th: North America #1 (4 shows) ・January 24th-February 9th: Australia (12 shows) ・February 14th-19th: Japan (4 shows) ←★HERE★ ・February 21st-22nd: Honolulu (2 shows) ・June 21st-July 4th: Europe (10 shows) ・August 30th: “LIVE AT READING (Official)” ・September 8th-October 4th: North America #2 (6 shows) ・October 30th: Buenos Aires This is the trajectory of Nirvana’s journey in 1992. It was a year of traveling all over the world across the ocean, but they only stopped in Japan for a mere four shows in February. Our store has archived these miraculous events with as many masterpieces as possible. Let’s expand the dates and check the relative locations of each stop, while also organizing our collection. Details of “Japan” *February 14th “OSAKA 1992 THE VIDEO』 * February 16th ‘NAGOYA 1992’ * February 17th: Club Citta Kawasaki * February 19th: Nakano Sun Plaza ←★This work★ The original DAT master recorded on a historic night As you can see, this Nakano Sun Plaza performance is the final day of the four Japanese shows. The last of their one and only visit to Japan…in other words, it was the last live in Japan in history. This work, which conveys that historic night, is an ultra-premium leaked soundboard. There is a wide range of soundboards, but the source of this work is what is called a direct connection to the mixing console. Moreover, it is of the highest quality. It has been created from our own original DAT master, and the sound that was sent to the venue’s PA has not been interrupted by anything It’s recorded without any intervening. That’s why every single distortion Kurt’s guitar spews out comes through in its raw form, and every single word of the lyrics retains its contour. Chris’s bass crawls along the floor with a thick core, and Dave’s drums tear through the air with each hit. The crowd noise is subdued because it’s directly connected to the mixing board, but in return, only the sounds the three of them produce come crashing down on you head-on. Moreover, this is the longest and finest version because it’s from the original DAT master. Other versions exist in leaked soundboard footage, but none of them come close to this one. The opening section and “Love The setlist is longer from “Buzz” onwards, allowing you to follow the entire performance from the initial atmosphere before the show started to the finale. This cultural heritage album, a complete recording of their final Japanese performance, features a one-of-a-kind “final Japanese performance” emanating from the original soundboard master. Let’s also take a look at the historically significant setlist. Nevermind (8 songs) – On A Plain / Come As You Are / Lithium / Breed / Drain You / Polly / Territorial Pissings / Smells Like Teen Spirit Others (5 songs + 3 songs) – Bleach: Negative Creep / Blew / About A Girl / School / Love Buzz Others: Been A Son/Sliver/Aneurysm…and so on. Eight songs from ‘NEVERMIND’ and five from ‘BLEACH’. It’s a truly dense hour, with them playing every song they had at the time without holding anything back. Each song in this set is packed with the weight of history, but the most striking is “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” which was truly the last song they played in Japan. Not only is it the last one in terms of data, but it’s also interesting to listen to. In fact, Kurt leaves the stage after “Territorial Pissings,” but they hadn’t played “Smells Like Teen Spirit” that day. Chris and Dave pointed it out to him, and he went back. Kurt replies, “Huh? We haven’t played it yet? I thought we had…” and returns to the stage. Then, Chris casually sings a bit of Queen’s “We Will Rock You,” and they play “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” “Spirit” begins. Even that indescribable “pause” can be enjoyed with this direct soundboard recording that connects straight to your brain. A single visit to Japan, and only one night in Tokyo. This leaked soundboard album lets you feel every moment of that incredibly intense night coursing through your entire body. A superb stereo soundboard recording of the “Nakano Sunplaza performance on February 19, 1992”. It was created from the original DAT master directly connected to the mixing console, so the sound that was sent to the PA comes through in its rawest form. Moreover, the beginning and everything from “Love Buzz” onwards are meticulously captured, and the moment when Kurt leaves the stage after “Territorial Pissings” without playing “Smells Like Teen Spirit” is also fully recorded. This is nothing short of a cultural heritage, the most important live album in the history of Western music in Japan. Nakano Sunplaza, Tokyo, Japan 19th February 1992 (61:14) 1. Intro 2.
