Description
Gary Moore in 1984 was about to enter a special “Irish era” even in the hard rock era. A masterpiece that revives the lost official video in the highest quality is now in stock. That lost treasure is “EMERALD AISLES: LIVE IN IRELAND.” Speaking of Gary’s “Irish era”, the first two works that come to mind are “WILD FRONTIER” and “AFTER THE WAR”, but the beginning of it was Phil Lynott’s reunion single “Out In The Fields”. “EMERALD AISLES” is a video work that is a sister to that masterpiece single. To get an idea of the circumstances surrounding this, let’s look back at the situation in 1984. ・January 16th-February 17th: UK #1 (13 performances) ・February 24th-29th: Japan (5 performances) ・March 10th-30th: Europe #1 (17 performances) ・5 August 8th – July 7th: North America (39 performances) August 15th – September 2nd: Europe #2 (6 performances)《November production of “Out In The Fields”》 December 12th – 20th Japan: UK #2/Ireland (5 performances) ←★Here★ This is Gary Moore in 1984. “VICTIMS OF THE FUTURE” was released at the end of the previous year and they were on a world tour until September, but then the third brain after Neil Carter: Bob Daisley joined. At the same time, I reconciled with Phil and produced “Out In The Fields.” The single was released in 1985, but before that a mini-tour of their homeland was held. This work is a concert/documentary video shot in “UK #2/Ireland”. This work was released on VHS/laser disc at the time, but it was soon discontinued. When Gary passed away, there were rumors that it would be made into a DVD, but it never materialized, and it has not yet been made into an official DVD. This work is a DVD that digitizes such a fantastic masterpiece in the highest quality. What’s more, it’s different from just transcribing a video. This is one of the laser disc reprint series that we have sent in the series. This series uses high-end equipment to digitize Japanese laser discs, which are considered by enthusiasts around the world to be the best in the world. There are many video titles on the market that have not been released on DVD, but most of them do not pay close attention to the type and condition of the original source. However, this series uses the Japanese version, which was active in the latest media from that time and aimed for thorough high quality. What’s more, we have carefully selected the best-preserved items that are owned by enthusiasts. There is no tape twist, deterioration, or running noise that is inevitable with video tape. In fact, in the case of footage whose shooting master has been lost, there are many cases where the Japanese version of the laser disc is officially converted to DVD. This is a Japanese laser disc that contains the highest quality footage in existence, but it is currently difficult to obtain the playback machine that extracts it from the disc. Therefore, we have partnered with overseas manufacturers that have professional equipment and unique know-how to reproduce the world’s highest quality on DVD. In fact, the visual beauty of this work, which was revived through a process that was thoroughly focused on “the best and the highest quality,” is truly astonishing. Of course, it’s not a digital shot with sharp outlines, but even though it’s analog, there’s no color bleeding. Not only those who have been watching it on VHS, but also those who have been playing laser discs on consumer players will be surprised by the visual beauty they have never experienced before. The theme of this work, which is depicted with such beautiful visuals, is the beauty of the Emerald Island. Featuring Gary’s true face as he savors the scenery of his hometown, the live shows “December 17th and 18th in Belfast” and “December 19th and 20th in Dublin” will be held. Gary tours around Emerald’s hometown with Irish trad in the background, rehearsing to teach Neil Carter his songs, and Gary preparing for the show while Gary says, “I came to see CREAM and THE WHO when I was a kid.” Landscape of Sahor. All of these are different from ordinary live video works. Meanwhile, the PV of “Out In The Fields” plays. It’s a masterpiece that I don’t know how many times I’ve seen it, or how many times I’ve listened to it, but it’s the most touching thing to see in this production. I strongly feel that this work, which is full of emerald scenery, is the place to be, not the album “RUN FOR COVER.” *Note: In the story, it is said that “Gary, who went to London in 1972 at the age of 16, has returned to Ireland for the first time in 10 years,” but of course, this does not add up. Gary was 20 years old in 1972, and THIN LIZZY in 1974 and THE GREEDIES in 1978 also had live shows in Ireland, so it’s been six years since then. And the main live performance is also amazing. Not only does Gary burn up more than usual in his hometown, but the “Golden Triangle” with Neil Carter and Bob Daisley is all together, and the fresh ensemble of only 2-5 performances is wonderful. It’s not an all-at-once video like the original, but it’s a type that includes image footage and interviews in between (Gary’s father is young!), and normally I’d be tempted to scold him, “Don’t do anything unnecessary.” The video is extremely tasteful. The focus is on “Gary’s feelings” as much as the lyrics and performance, and the songs delve deeply into the imagination of Irish children and cityscapes. Each song is a deep, deep video that you can deeply enjoy. The biggest highlight of this work, which is full of highlights, is “Parisienne Walkways” co-starring with his ally Phil Lynott! Here too, the interview before the song is profound. A session just for the two of them, with live footage of THIN LIZZY included, the two of them chatting and having fun in the dressing room after many years of ups and downs… I have no way of knowing that he will be bereaved about a year later, and the scene where he says, “It’s going to be the same as always, just playing good music and having fun” is heart-wrenching (of course, the entire movie has Japanese subtitles). Gary Moore’s charms are diverse. Cool machine gun picking, bold and deep vibrato, passionate songwriting…and the scent of Celtic music. In this work, that beautiful melody becomes a scene that appears right in front of your eyes. This masterpiece video is the first in the “Celtic Trilogy”, which continues with the wonderful “WILD FRONTIER” and “AFTER THE WAR”. A hard rock treasure created by Irish heroes Gary Moore and Phil Lynott.
