Alcatrazz/Portsmouth,UK 2019

Treasured original sound sources leaked by related parties will be released. Four shocking titles will be released at once! This work is the first installment. This is the latest live album from the UK! This work records the “Portsmouth performance on October 2, 2019”. This is a leaked audience recording that is said to have been recorded by a person involved for material purposes. Graham Bonnet has been on a roll in recent years. In the spring, they will perform in Japan to loudly announce the return of ALCATRAZZ, and they have also announced that they will be returning to Japan as early as next year at MICHAEL SCHENKER FEST (hereinafter referred to as MSF). Not only are there many people coming to Japan, but the live content is also like the heyday, and we are entering a golden age that feels like 1984 has returned. On the other hand, because ALCATRAZZ and MSF operate in parallel, it is difficult to imagine how their activities are going. First of all, let’s check the show’s position in the schedule and get up to know the latest situation. ●2019 ◇April 15th-May 18th: North America (MSF: 23 performances) ・May 28th-31st: Japan #1 (4 performances) ・June 6th-8th: Australia (3 performances) )◇July 11th + 12th: Europe #1 (MSF: 2 performances)《“REVELATION” released on September 20th》・September 19th – October 12th: Europe #2 (21 performances)←★Here★ ●2020 ◇March 10th-13th: Japan #2 (MSF: 4 performances) *Note: “◇” marks are MSF shows, “・” marks are ALCATRAZZ shows. This is the 2019/2020 Graham that has been published so far. ALCATRAZZ’s visit to Japan in May led to an Australian tour, and in the summer they performed at a festival at MSF. From early autumn, they will be touring Europe again with ALCATRAZZ. I plan to accompany MSF on their return visit to Japan in March next year. It’s a great success, just like in 1984, but on the other hand, there are some worrying stories. After MSF returns to Japan, it has been announced that he will not be participating in the MSF UK tour in April as he is scheduled to undergo spinal surgery. It doesn’t seem to be an emergency, so I don’t think it’s serious, but since it’s beyond ancient times, I want you to take great care of it. Aside from that, the Portsmouth performance of this work is the 12th performance of “Europe #2”. The autumn tour consisted of “12 performances in the UK + 9 performances on the continent”, and this work was also the last day of the UK version. This work, which records such a show, is an audience recording full of the feeling of a closed room in a club. There is no doubt that it is a record of a person involved, but it is not a line recording through a mix desk, but a microphone recording. However, since the seats were for the people involved, the position was perfect, and the excitement of the venue felt far away, and the sound of the performance was right in front of me, with almost no sound from the hall. Although no attention was paid to the balance of the ensemble for recording and confirmation purposes, on the contrary, each instrument is frighteningly vivid, and every detail can be clearly discerned. The sound is more like being present at a studio rehearsal than a live performance!!!The sound depicts a concentrated, “stylish” and “neoclassical” career of Graham’s glory. A rich and true show. Let’s organize the set here. ●NO PAROLE FROM ROCK’N’ROLL (5 songs) ・Too Young To Die, Too Drunk To Live／Hiroshima Mon Amour／Jet To Jet／Kree Nakoorie／Island in the Sun ●RAINBOW (3 songs) ・All Night Long／ Since You Been Gone／Lost In Hollywood ●M.S.G. (3 songs)・Desert Song／Rock You To The Ground／Assault Attack ●Others (3 songs)・Night Games／Stand In Line『STAND IN LINE』／We Won’t Be Forgotten『BLACKTHORNE』…and it looks like this. Although it is not a reproduction of the album like the previous Japan/Australia, its richness is intense. While “DOWN TO EARTH” and “Apocalypse” support the core of “NO PAROLE FROM ROCK’N’ROLL,” all songs except “We Won’t Be Forgotten” are limited to the 80’s. “We Won’t Be Forgotten” is also a hidden gem of BLACKTHORNE, with a melancholy intro reminiscent of AC/DC and a catchy melody that sticks in your mind once you hear it, giving it a fierce 80’s feel. This is also a masterpiece that is more than worthy of being called “stylish beauty,” and it does not feel out of place with the famous songs of ALCATRAZZ and M.S.G. Graham Bonnet’s singing voice was as loud as in his heyday during his performance in Japan, and his sense of stability was actually beyond his heyday. The show, which combines that singing voice with Joe Stamp’s neoclassical shred guitar, is truly worthy of ALCATRAZZ’s golden signature. This is a vacuum-packed version of the UK edition of the latest tour, recorded by those involved. A masterpiece live album that can only be heard in this work.
