Eric Clapton/Tokyo,Japan 10.27.1997 S & V

From a must-have label for Clapton fans, here is a title that couples the performance at Nippon Budokan on October 27th, 1997 Japan Tour with 2 CDs of master quality and soundboard sound source and 1 DVD containing professional shot footage. First of all, the video is a direct DVD of the TV on-air source at the time from the master cassette recorded on S-VHS, and is recorded in the highest quality ever for 95 minutes. In addition, the sound source CD is not a video drop from here, but a professional use digital remastering was applied to the DAT master recorded at the same time, so this was also recorded on the best stereo sound board. This “Change the World – Japanese / Far East Tour” was a Japan-only tour that took place from October 13th to 31st, with a total of 13 performances across the country, 8 of which were held at the familiar Nippon Budokan. This tour was long for the time, and there were clear good and bad days depending on the performance, but this day, with the cameras in, the enthusiasm and greatness of the performance was the best of this tour, and the band also showed their best performance, centered around Steve Gadd and Joe Sample. Also, the set was set up only for this day, perhaps with the TV broadcast in mind, and except for “Broken Hearted” and “Pilgrim”, which were excluded from the broadcast, this is a 2CD + DVD version with the best quality.
