David Bowie/France 1995 & more

The release of the best professional shots containing special performances from the “OUTSIDE” era has been decided. This work contains two special shows, “December 11, 1995 FNAC SHOW (Paris)” and “December 14, 1995 THE WHITE ROOM (London)”. Both are not regular concerts, but special performances for that day only. First, let’s narrow down the overview of “OUTSIDE TOUR 1995-1996” little by little. ・September-October 1995: North America (27 performances) ・November-December 1995: UK (16 performances) ←★Here★ ・January-February 1996: Europe #1 (23 performances) {4 months later} ・June 1996: Japan (7 performances) ・June-July 1996: Europe #2 (20 performances) The above is the full picture of “OUTSIDE TOUR”. This work was a special performance not counted here, and was performed in the middle of the “UK” circuit. Let’s zoom in on the “UK” tour. November 14th – December 8th: 15 UK tour performances December 11th: FNAC SHOW appearance [This work] December 13th: Birmingham performance (final UK performance) December 14th: THE WHITE ROOM appearance [This work] As mentioned above, “FNAC SHOW” was recorded in Paris, so they jumped over the Strait of Dover during the UK tour. The first to appear is the special show “FNAC SHOW” in Paris. It was a show sponsored by the French chain “FNAC” and MTV, and was a premier live performance with about 450 media representatives invited. Six songs like a digest of “OUTSIDE TOUR” were performed, and the pattern was known before. However, this work is an upgraded version released following last year’s death. The quality is completely different from the previous footage, a superbly beautiful version of master quality. It is truly a flawless official grade. The image of Bowie depicted with that quality is truly a treasure. Although it is a short video with six songs, this is a full set. The careful selection is a condensed version of the “OUTSIDE TOUR”, centering on three songs from “OUTSIDE”, which was also said to be the “return of the Berlin trilogy”, and also showing “Look Back In Anger” from the final work of the trilogy “LODGER”. There, “Under Pressure” and “The Man Who Sold The World” give it width, and although it is short, you can enjoy a variety of expressions. Moreover, the performance itself is extremely good. Although it was a somewhat forced trip to France, there were only six songs, so there was no difficulty, and the communication with the band was excellent only during the tour. The other video is four studio live songs from an appearance on the British Channel 4 program “THE WHITE ROOM”. This was filmed the day after the final performance of the UK tour, and like “FNAC SHOW”, the master recently appeared. The visual beauty and sound are equally perfect and official. This performance is also really wonderful. The pure white in-house studio, as the program name suggests, is different from the dark image of “OUTSIDE”, but it is decorated with colorful lighting and is very colorful. Although it is even shorter with four songs, it also shows “Boys Keep Swinging” from “LODGER”, which was not performed at “FNAC SHOW”. Although it is a total of 10 songs and 48 minutes, it is a masterpiece video that shows an unexpected side of the “OUTSIDE” era with the best quality. It is also a wonderful collection, and it is a piece that allows you to enjoy the chic of the “OUTSIDE” era at once.
