Eric Clapton/Tokyo,Japan 11.1.1975

From Eric Clapton’s 1975 Japan tour, the new audience master of the Budokan performance on November 1st, which was the 6th day, was discovered after 40 years! This is a genuine, completely original master that has never been released before. However, if it’s just a new discovery, we won’t release it. Because the sound quality was worth it. Speaking of the sound source of this day, multiple masters have come out in the past. According to the evaluation in Clapton’s data book “Live File 1”, the 4CD title with stereo recording is considered the best, followed by the 6CD title with monaural recording, but although this album was recorded in monaural, the sound quality was a bit muffled. The sound quality is clearer than the 6CD title. What’s more, the sound field is as wide as the 4CD, which has a sense of realism but had a lot of audience noise, making it difficult to concentrate, and the low audience noise makes it extremely easy to listen to. In particular, the sounds of Jamie Oldacre’s drums and Sergio Rodriguez’s percussion are clearly captured, allowing you to enjoy the rhythmic edge. And since Clapton’s guitar sound is more prominent than that of second guitar George Terry, you can grasp the details of Clapton’s playing. It depends on the listener’s preference, but if you listen to this edition, you may recommend it as the best of the day. However, in this master, there was a missing part between the songs after the end of Can’t Find My Way Home and before the song Further On Up The Road, and the beginning of Further On Up The Road, so we have the previously released master at our store. An engineer mastered the sound to bring the sound quality as close as possible, and compensated for the level that you wouldn’t be able to tell by just listening to it. Due to the naturalness of this natural supplement, this disc is a complete recording disc with no defects. As reviewed in “Live File 1”, Clapton on this day is developing a high-quality performance by folding sharp phrases even on a laid-back stage. The song order was changed from the Kansai performance in the first half of the tour, and the encore pattern was completely changed. In the encore of this performance, we are showing off an unusual pattern of a medley from Eyesight To The Blind to the second half of Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad. It can be said that the sharp and varied phrases in the four blues numbers in the set demonstrate his wide range of blues skills. In Further On Up The Road, the intro is stretched out due to the guitar play being too clear, making it difficult to get into the song. This kind of take is also the unique charm of Clapton, who is a “raw product”. A new master discovered for the first time in 40 years. Moreover, it has the high quality that is called the best of the day. Please take this opportunity to order this edition.
