David Bowie/UK 1996 & more Upgrade

The finest stereo soundboard recording that symbolized the “1.OUTSIDE” era has been upgraded. There are two types of soundboards included in this work. This is a two-disc set that mainly features the “July 18, 1996 Phoenix Festival Performance (UK)” coupled with the “July 9, 1996 Live Link Festival Performance (Italy)”. Speaking of the “1.OUTSIDE” era, the bizarre and dark image was also vivid, but that line became more sophisticated as the tour progressed. Along the way, the members and set list also changed. First, let’s check the show’s position from the overall picture of “OUTSIDE TOUR 1995-1996”. ●1995 [“OUTSIDE” released on September 25th]・September 14th – October 31st: North America #1 (27 performances)・November 14th – December 13th: UK (16 performances)・1996・January 17th – February 20th: Europe #1 (23 performances) ・June 4th – 13th: Japan (7 performances) ・June 18th – July 21st: Europe #2/Israel ( 20 performances)←★Coco★《August “EARTHLING” production》・September 6th-14th: North America #2 (4 performances)・October 19th + 20th: Appearance at BRIDGE BENEFIT CONCERT・October 24th: VH -1 FASHION AWARDS [Updated to the highest standard stereo sound board] This is Bowie in 1995/1996. The turning point was the Japan performance in June 1996. From here, several members, including Carlos Alomar, left and the band became a tight five-piece ensemble. The tour expanded all over the world, including Russia and Israel, with that organization. Both of the two performances of this work were the “Europe #2/Israel” leg, the main Phoenix Festival was the 18th performance, and the Live Link Festival was the 13th performance. Both performances have been a staple of “OUTSIDE TOUR 1996” for a long time. In particular, the main Phoenix festival is literally an official recording, with “Hallo Spaceboy” being provided on the official copy edition “PHOENIX: THE ALBUM”. In the end, only one song was released from the official version, but the complete sound board has become a symbol of 1996 as the “official replacement for OUTSIDE TOUR.” This work updates the highest peak of such a symbolic sound board. At our store, we have delivered upgrades of many classic soundboards under the supervision of world-renowned Bowie researchers, and this work is the latest. Using masters carefully selected by researchers, we further refine them through meticulous mastering. Maximizes the potential of the original sound. The finish is just perfect. Needless to say, the pitch is accurate, and every slight distortion and deviation in the original sound has been carefully corrected one by one, and the balance of each range and stereo sense have been adjusted. It’s a superb soundboard that symbolizes the era, so I wouldn’t say it’s completely different, but it’s reached a level of perfection to the point where you can’t make any more changes to it, and if you do, you’ll ruin the original sound. is. The show drawn with its ultimate sound is so wonderful that it would have been called a “90s masterpiece” if it had been officially released. I thought it would be a pain to lose my ally Carlos, but Reeves Gabrels did a great job and performed “Telling Lies” from “EARTHLING” without any feeling of being lacking. The strange feeling that was noticeable at the beginning of the tour has faded, and it is getting closer to Bowie’s original sound. Such a “1996 version” show is famous for the pro shot of “ROCKPALAST” (you can enjoy the highest quality sound board at our store “LORELEY 1996 (Wardour-195)”), but in this work you can not listen there either. He also performed “Strangers When We Meet”. Also, perhaps because they have been performing at Lorelei since then, the ensemble is solid, and during “Aladdin Sane (1913-1938-197?),” Bowie and Gail Ann Dorsey sing THE KINKS’ lyrics “Where Have There is also room to add “All The Good Times Gone.” [The interrupted Live Link Festival is also recorded at its peak] Such Phoenix Festival alone is a perfect score, but this work also includes a coupling recording of the FM sound board of the Live Link Festival. Although it is not as good as the Phoenix Festival in terms of sound quality, this is also the highest version that has been refined from the best master supervised by researchers. This is a big bonus track that lasts about 55 minutes. As for the set, it is a song that could be heard at Phoenix Festival, but this show is also known for small incidents. After the one-hour main set was over, everyone in the venue was expecting an encore, but this was actually the end. Although the pre-contracted performance was for one hour and 40 minutes, Bowie left the venue early for his hotel. It has not been revealed until now why Bowie left without completing his contract on this day, and various speculations have been thrown around. One theory is that this was because only 4,000 people gathered in a stadium that can hold more than 60,000 people, and others say that it was because the cameraman, who was only allowed during the first song, continued filming. Although some sources say that 80,000 people were mobilized for “LIVE LINK FESTIVAL”, there are various theories that the “Stadio Olimpico di Roma” where the event was held had a maximum of 70,000 people… There are various theories like this, but when you listen to the 55-minute show that was left in reality, the mystery only deepens because it was such a passionate performance that you wouldn’t think there would be any problems. A live link festival that remains on the full sound board of the Phoenix festival, which is a symbol of the “1.OUTSIDE” era. This is a superb stereo soundboard album that combines both at the highest quality. A great album that should have been officially released along with “LORELEY 1996”.
