Description
A new super-excellent soundboard album suitable for the New Year has been discovered! The New Year edition is engraved with “Tampa performance on February 5, 1994.” This is a completely official stereo soundboard recording of “GET A GRIP TOUR”, which was the pinnacle of its heyday. Before we get into the shocking details, let’s take a look at the show’s position. Let’s take a look back at the panoramic view of the world tour that concluded the golden GEFFEN era. 1993《“GET A GRIP” released on April 20th》・June 2nd – October 2nd: North America #1 (68 performances) ・October 21st – December 8th: Europe (29 performances)・12 January 28th-31st: North America #2a (3 performances) January 1st-23rd: North America #2b/South America #1 (7 performances) January 25th-February 26th: North America #3 (20 performances) ←★Coco★・April 27th – May 17th: Japan (13 performances)・May 21st – July 12th: Europe #2 (30 performances)・July 29th – November 10th: North America #4 (46 performances) [BIG ONES released on November 1st] November 13th – December 19th: South America #2/North America #5 (16 performances) This is 1993/1994 AEROSMITH. It was a gigantic tour with a total of 240 performances in about one and a half years, and it was the No. 1 tour even in the GEFFEN era…or should I say, it was a gigantic tour that was unparalleled even in the 50 years since its debut. The North American leg alone has been held five times, but among them, the Tampa performance of this work is the seventh performance of “North America #3”. This was the 114th concert out of a total of 240 performances. This work, which was recorded in the middle of such a great heyday, is an extremely superb soundboard recording. It is not an FM broadcast, but a sound board that has recently been discovered for the first time, and its quality is impregnable. Apparently it’s a DAT master connected directly to the desk, but the mix of the entire band and the stereo feel are beautifully controlled, and the cheers between songs naturally erupt. Are the world’s biggest names beautiful in the on-site mixes, or were they recorded to be used for something? In any case, not only do they have a direct connection to the performance, but they also have an incredible official feel. It is a super superb sound board. What is depicted with that quality is a full show of the super peak. Speaking of “GET A GRIP TOUR”, it is part of the official live album “A LITTLE SOUTH OF SANITY”, but this work is completely different. First, let’s organize the contents. 70’s numbers (8 songs) ・AEROSMITH: Walking the Dog (★) / Mama Kin / Dream On ・TOYS IN THE ATTIC: Toys in the Attic (★) / Big Ten Inch Record (★) / Sweet Emotion / Walk This Way・DRAW THE LINE: Draw the Line (★) GEFFEN trilogy number (15 songs) ・PERMANENT VACATION: Rag Doll/Dude (Looks Like a Lady)/Hangman Jury (★) ・PUMP: What It Takes/The Other Side/ Janie’s Got a Gun/Love in an Elevator ・GET A GRIP: Eat the Rich/Fever(★)/Amazing/Cryin’/Boogie Man(★)/Shut Up and Dance(★)/Walk On Down/Livin’ on the Edge Others (1 song)・Mannish Boy (★: Muddy Waters cover) *Note: Numbers marked with “★” cannot be heard on the official version of “A LITTLE SOUTH OF SANITY”. …and it looks like this. Roughly speaking, the balance is “70’s = 1/3 + GEFFEN era = 2/3”, and of course the most important axis is the blockbuster hit “GET A GRIP” which achieved No. 1 in the United States for the first time. In addition to the single songs whose PVs took the world by storm, you can also enjoy rare songs exclusive to this tour such as “Shut Up and Dance” and “Walk On Down” on the finest soundboard. Although it is hard to say that the balance that clearly favors GEFFEN is a summary of his career, on the contrary, it is definitely a “summation of the GEFFEN era”. That is the richness that can be said to be the live version of “BIG ONES”. Of course, it’s not just the GEFFEN era. Even in the classics, numbers that cannot be heard on “A LITTLE SOUTH OF SANITY” such as “Walking the Dog”, “Toys in the Attic”, “Big Ten Inch Record”, and “Draw the Line” were performed one after another, and as expected, Joe was unique to this tour.・You can enjoy the extremely rare cover “Mannish Boy” sung by Perry in completely official quality. And above all, the live feeling of one shot is tremendous. I think “A LITTLE SOUTH OF SANITY”, which is a compilation of selected takes of “GET A GRIP TOUR” + “NINE LIVES TOUR”, has some meaning, but the momentum at its peak and the feeling of the scene at its peak is overwhelming. This work wins. That’s why many people will be tempted to say, “I wish this work had been preserved as an official work rather than a fake best-of album.” AEROSMITH is one of the biggest monsters in rock history, where countless heroes are present. There were many highlights in its long history, but the one that reached its peak in scale and density was definitely the GEFFEN era, and “GET A GRIP TOUR”. This is a transcendental soundboard album where you can enjoy the full show with official quality. It’s the best as a single live album, and it’s a special 2-disc set, both as a summary of the GEFFEN era and as a cultural heritage of rock history.
