Deep Purple/Osaka,Japan 5.9.1985 Upgrade

A performance in Japan in 1985 when the “Golden Five” all came to Japan. A miraculous new discovery by the super best master who conveys the scene! This is not just a first appearance, but a shocking live album that renews the highest peak! This work is engraved with the “May 9, 1985: Osaka Castle Hall” performance. This is a superb audience recording that records the whole story. This show was a big hit and was hailed as the “best performance” on the 1985 tour. This work is a historical excavation where you can enjoy such a legendary show with the best sound updated to the highest peak. In any case, let’s check the show’s position while organizing our collection according to the schedule.・May 8th “FAR FROM GOD (Osaka)” ・May 9th: Osaka Castle Hall ←★This work★ ・May 11th “FAR FROM GOD (Nagoya)” ・May 13th “PERFECT GUNNERS (Japan) Budokan)” May 14th “THRILL OF THE CHASE (Nippon Budokan)” May 15th “PERFECT MACHINE (Nippon Budokan)” May 16th “THE MAGNIFICENT FIVE (Nippon Budokan)” [An unusually direct new excavated recording] All of the above, 7 performances. The flow was 2 shows in Osaka → 1 show in Nagoya → 4 shows at Budokan, and while this work was the second performance in Osaka as the title suggests, it was also the second performance in the entire Japan tour. On this day, not only the 6-disc set “FAR FROM GOD” but also “OSAKA 1985 2ND NIGHT” have been well received, but this work is a new recording that is different from both. Moreover, he is the new champion who has updated the highest peak. In fact, the sound is shocking, rich and extremely thick. In fact, the highest peak “FAR FROM GOD” master to date is the best even to today’s ears, especially the high-pitched sound is exceptional. Therefore, when you listen to it quickly, it may be easy to hear the vocals and keyboard phrases, but when the whole band comes in, the whole thing changes at once, and this work becomes overwhelming. The density of the midrange without any sparse feeling, the clear resolution of deep bass to the crisp bass attack sound, and the glossy sound that shows no signs of deterioration over time (the vocal microphone seems to have a little excessive input in the first few songs) However, this seems to be caused by the on-site PA.In other recordings, the sound was not so noticeable, but if you listen closely, a similar phenomenon occurs when “A Gypsy’s Kiss” is reached. It is improved, and in fact, this work supports the merits of recording that accurately picks up even such small distortions). Even more intense is the sense of closeness. Although it feels like an audience recording in terms of tone, you can’t feel the hall sound even when listening to it with headphones, and the exposed core is extremely vivid. The outline is clear, as if it were an outdoor recording with no echo. Even though the previous recordings were clear, there was a sense of space in the sound, but the density of this work is exactly “close”. You can enjoy the notes spun by the “Golden Five” with a sense of zero distance, as if you were placing your ear perfectly against the PA (if you did that, your ears would die in one shot). It is probably the position that creates such a close feeling. The sound emitted by the PA is picked up before it spreads out, and the direct feeling is amazing. Of course, if you’re that far in the front row, there’s a risk that the sound will get around to you, but it’s the equipment and setting skills that make up for that. In fact, the person who worked on this sister work is a master who has recently been making extremely high quality recordings. Yes, it turns out that he is a recording artist who has attracted attention as “more than official” with his masterpieces of THE POLICE and WHITENSKAE, and who has been involved in the legendary recording of Jeff Beck’s “YOKOHAMA 1980 (Wardour-467)”. The master also recorded the reunion DEEP PURPLE. What’s more, you can enjoy it with the ultimate gene transferred from the original cassette that was never released. [A live album where you can enjoy the best show right before your eyes] And what is depicted with such direct sound is a masterpiece that was called No. 1 on the 1985 Japan tour. On the first day, I was troubled by a PA problem that was making a lot of noise, or maybe I couldn’t get the hang of it on the first day, so I had a little incomplete combustion. The encore was only one song, “Smoke On The Water”. However, this work, which started overnight, showed its true potential all at once. The rhythm is good, the riffs are sharp, and Ritchie Blackmore is probably in a good mood, too, and the improvisation flows really comfortably. The encore will also show off three full songs including “Woman From Tokyo” and “Black Night”. 1972 was the year that produced “MADE IN JAPAN,” 1973 was etched in rock history with its riots and final brilliance, and 1985 was the year that spread dreams throughout Japan. The performance in Japan with the “Golden Five” was always an incident in itself. This work is a live album that allows you to experience the best and fullest “1985 great performance” that is special in the history of Western music. A shocking new discovery that has completely updated the highest peak of two days in Osaka. A superb audience recording of the “May 9, 1985: Osaka Castle Hall” performance. This is a masterpiece that was directly digitized from the original cassette recorded in the “2nd row of the 1st floor arena”, and has a high density in the midrange and clear deep bass. You can enjoy the beautiful notes spun by the “Golden Five” with a sense of zero distance, as if you were placing your ear perfectly on the PA. The show is a miraculous new excavation live album where you can fully experience the famous performance, which was called No. 1 even when it came to Japan in 1985, with the best sound ever.
