David Bowie/MI,USA 1997 DAT Master

“EARTHLING TOUR” was the last big tour of the 90s. A monster-sized long live album rarely seen on that world tour is now available as a 3-disc set. What is recorded in this work is “September 22, 1997 Detroit Performance”. This is a masterpiece audience recording. This work is truly a masterpiece that combines quality and quantity, but first of all it is the position of the show. Please check the tour schedule at that time. [“EARTHLING” released on February 3rd]・May 17th-June 5th: Warm-up gigs (4 performances)・June 7th-August 14th: Europe (46 performances)・September 6th- October 23rd: North America (29 performances) ←★Coco★・October 31st – November 7th: South America (5 performances) This is the overall picture of “EARTHLING TOUR 1997”. The simultaneously released “ROCK CITY 1997 (Uxbridge 1132)” was a masterpiece born from the end of the first half, but the Detroit performance of this work was in the middle of the second half. This was the 11th concert of the “North American” leg. And that Detroit performance is really big. Famous songs were played out one after another without stopping, and before we knew it, it had become a long show with 30 songs and 2 hours and 50 minutes. This work is an audience recording that completely records the entire story. Let’s organize the set here and experience the large volume. ●THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD (2 songs)・The Man Who Sold The World・Songs that cannot be heard on NEW YORK MAN: The Supermen ●HUNKY DORY (2 songs)・Songs that cannot be heard on NEW YORK MAN: Quicksand/Queen Bitch ● ALADDIN SANE (2 songs)・The Jean Genie/Panic In Detroit ●SCARY MONSTERS (2 songs)・Fashion・Songs that cannot be heard on NEW YORK MAN: Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) ●1. OUTSIDE (4 songs)・Hallo Spaceboy・Songs you can’t hear on NEW YORK MAN: The Voyeur Of Utter Destruction (As Beauty)/The Heart’s Filthy Lesson/Strangers When We Meet●EARTHLING (7 songs) ・I’m Afraid Of Americans/Seven Years In Tibet/Battle For Britain (The Letter)/Looking For Satellites/Little Wonder・Songs that cannot be heard on NEW YORK MAN: Dead Man Walking/The Last Thing You Should Do●Other (11 songs)・Moonage Daydream/I’m Waiting For The Man/My Death ／Stay／Always Crashing In The Same Car／Under Pressure・Songs you can’t listen to in NEW YORK MAN: All The Young Dudes／White Light/White Heat／V-2 Schneider／Look Back In Anger／O Superman …And things like this It has become. I should have organized it, but this volume. There are many masterpiece soundboards left in the 1997 “North American” leg, but even compared to the long “NEW YORK MAN (Wardour-262)”…or should I say, comparison? It doesn’t become. There are 13 songs and a lot of repertoire that you can’t hear even on that famous album. In addition to “EARTHLING” numbers such as “Seven Years In Tibet,” “Looking For Satellites,” “Dead Man Walking,” and “The Last Thing You Should Do,” “The Supermen” revived for the first time in 24 years, and in 1997, “V-2 Schneider”, “Always Crashing In The Same Car”, “O Superman”, etc. were shown for the first time. It covers most of the standard songs and songs that can be expected from “EARTHLING TOUR”, and there are also plenty of rare “+α” songs. Just continuing to immerse yourself in such a group of famous songs is bliss, but this work does not end there. The sound that conveys the show is also exceptional. Anyway, the audience is far away. If you listen closely with headphones, you can also notice the sound of a hall, but it feels like an FM broadcast with a slightly strong echo, and the powerful and bold core is right in front of you. It’s a little different from the close contact feeling of a sound board, but it’s not so close that it can be called a sense of distance, and there is no lightness of the snare that is common in audience recording. Although the lively cheering is engraved as proof of audience recording, it does not get in the way because it is further away than the thick performance sound. It is a beautiful recording unique to the audience, where the slight ringing creates an exquisite luster and mood. And what enhances its beauty even more is Master Freshness. As the title says, this work has been digitized directly from the original DAT, and is truly the ultimate generation. Bowie’s dandy sound is infinitely deep, and there is no distortion or dirt in his sexy singing voice. The sound at that time is exactly as it was… no, it is an exquisite sound that you will not often find in a seat with such good sound even if you are present at the venue. After this tour, Bowie left the huge tour and focused on small to medium-sized activities. The last time he went on a tour of the same scale was “A REALITY TOUR” before he died. This is a 3-disc set that allows you to experience the entire 3-hour big show with the finest realistic sound, which is special even on such an “EARTHLING TOUR”. There is nothing better than this masterpiece to fill the long autumn nights with masterpieces.
