Deep Purple/Osaka,Japan 1985

The release of a shocking video title has been decided! This work contains “May 9, 1985: Osaka Castle Hall Performance”. It is an audience shot of “PERFECT STRANGERS JAPAN TOUR 1985”, which wrapped the whole of Japan in the hot romance of revival, among the three times in history when the “golden five” came together. Although the Japanese tour has been reported on various live albums so far, this is the first time the video has been released. Although some audience shots of Sydney and European tours were known, the Japanese performance was unknown. Recently, it was suddenly released by a world-famous collector. It is a video that is currently a hot topic on the Internet. First of all, let’s start with the schedule at that time. May 8: Osaka Castle Hall May 9: Osaka Castle Hall [This work] May 11: Nagoya International Exhibition Hall May 13: Nippon Budokan May 14: Nippon Budokan May 15: Nippon Budokan May 16: Nippon Budokan In this way, “PERFECT STRANGERS JAPAN TOUR 1985” has a total of 7 performances. This work is the second day of the Osaka Castle 2DAYS, which was arranged at the beginning. This work is not only valuable, but also has excellent quality. Although it is a video shoot more than 30 years ago, its freshness is as if 30 years did not exist. There is no deterioration due to dubbing, no twisting or line noise, and the coloring is extremely beautiful. It is in the best condition, which must have been digitized directly from the master. And the essential angle / image quality is also amazing. The angle is looking down on the stage from the right side of the second floor (Ritchie Blackmore side), but since I was in the front row of the second floor, there were no shadows of other spectators. It is an excellent viewpoint where 100% of the field of vision is occupied by the stage with zero obstructions. And the sense of stability is great. Since there is no zoom, you can’t “see the facial expressions”, but you can look at the great performance with a sense of stability without straining yourself. When experiencing it on site, there is no zoom (unless you use binoculars), so in that sense it is truly a field perspective. It is a video that hits you with a fierce “sense of experience”. Of course, the same goes for the audio. Since “Blues” and drum solos are not included and there are cuts at the beginning of “A Gypsy’s Kiss” and the latter half of “Lazy”, it was not suitable for a live album with only audio, but the sound itself is clear and comparable to the great live albums to date. The masters on the Internet had some bass that was too strong and some noise, but this work was restored by mastering. Once separated from the video, a complete treatment was performed, and then it was synchronized again just right. It was finished with an ironclad sound that was suitable for the unparalleled visual beauty. In any case, you can experience “LIVE IN JAPAN 1985” in its entirety with the scenery. This is all there is to it. Of course, it should not be compared to “MADE IN JAPAN”, but since the “golden five” are full of motivation, it can’t be bad. The sympathy of the phrases is vivid and the mood is flexible because of these five people. On the first day, the encore, which was only one song, “Smoke On The Water”, increased to three songs, and Richie’s action was also Bishi Bishi. The heat of the rising trend spreads all over the screen. The “golden five”‘s performance in Japan, full of fulfillment. It is the first time in history that you can experience the scene in real life. Live at Castle Hall, Osaka, Japan 9th May 1985 AMAZING SHOT 1. Intro. 2. Highway Star 3. Nobody’s Home 4.
