David Bowie/Canada 1983 & more

From Bowie’s Serious Moonlight Tour, Canada completely recorded the Montreal performance on July 13, 1983 with a sound board. This is the definitive recording of the Montreal performance, which has been popular as a standard sound source for a long time. In the 1980s, when Bowie was at a turning point from being a cult hero to a major hero, any one title from the Serious Moonlight Tour, the largest in Bowie’s history, would be this work, which was completely recorded on a soundboard. Isn’t it? Although the highly staged stage production required a fixed set list, it was therefore highly complete and was the most cutting-edge staging at the time. Since this is a tour accompanying the album “LET’S DANCE,” all the songs are arranged in a danceable uptempo style, and the addition of horns makes them sparkling. In addition, “Heroes” was given an intro with Bowie speaking, and “Life on Mars”, which is usually sung simply, was performed in a rocker ballad arrangement with exaggerated keyboards and drums, giving it an original taste. While respecting it, you can enjoy Bowie’s stage unique to this era. As I wrote earlier, the sound quality is perfect on the sound board, and there is no doubt that it is a representative sound source of this tour. The whole song is recorded in high quality from the French intro. In addition, one bonus track, “Imagine” from the Hong Kong performance on December 8, 1983, which was played only on that day, is also recorded on the soundboard. This day marks the third anniversary of John Lennon’s death, and after talking about his memories with John, he performed one of John’s most famous songs on stage. This is “Imagine” sung by a very rare Bowie. Completely recorded July 13, 1983 Montreal performance on soundboard. The bonus track is a cover of John Lennon’s “Imagine,” which is also included on the soundboard. This is the title that represents the Serious Moonlight Tour.
