Eric Clapton/Tokyo,Japan 4.15.2019

The live sound source from April 15th, the second day after the 5 consecutive performances at Budokan in 2019, will also be released urgently. The recording seats are in the 10th row of Arena A3 block. Of course, this is an original sound source obtained directly from Taper. The sound quality is high, the sound is stable, and there are no annoying spectators around, so you can relax. And you can enjoy the live performance with peace of mind. Compared to the first day, I feel like my performance is more organized, my voice is in better shape, and my fingers are definitely moving better. The set started strong like the first day with Pretending. After getting the band excited with Key to the Highway, they continued their performance on the first day with Wanna Make Love to You, an outtake of “AUGUST”, which has become a hot topic among enthusiasts. The set progresses smoothly, tracing the order of the songs from the first day, but at the end of the acoustic set time, Layla is played as it is. The performance itself was very good and of very high quality, but some of the audience who were looking forward to hearing “Electric Layla” tonight again for the first time in 10 years, which excited and moved the audience on the opening day and Saturday, were disappointed. I think I may have been exposed to the watermark of . Still, the atmosphere in the venue where people were simply overwhelmed by the high-quality Clapton and band performance and were listening to it was conveyed realistically, but the flow of the second half of the show returned to the pattern of the past few years, and in that sense compared to the first day. It was somewhat disappointing. Before You Accuse Me was not performed and Cocaine was played at the end of the main set. And the encore is High Time We Went, sung by Paul Carrack, which is typical in this vein. Will the A set on the first day and B set on the second day be performed alternately, or will the A set be revived only on the final day, Saturday, April 20th? You won’t know until you open the lid. . In any case, Clapton’s play this time is very fulfilling, so every song is worth listening to. The music was on and the voices of the audience were low, and in addition, the conversation around the audience during the encore wait and show end was a cool English conversation between a female foreigner, which also gave it a high point. (It has a much better atmosphere than the old man’s voice saying “Eric~”, and it doesn’t feel like Budokan.) For now, here’s a report from the second day with the fastest sound quality.
