Gary Moore/Osaka,Japan 2.27.1984 Upgrade

An original cassette of the famous Kinney, which will be released for the first time in the world, has been discovered. “TOKYO 1983 2ND NIGHT”, the live album from their first visit to Japan, which was the basis for “ROCKIN’ EVERY NIGHT”, will be released, and this work is the second release. This is a superb audience recording of the “February 27, 1984: Osaka Welfare Pension Hall” performance. Of course, since it is 1984, this is the second performance in Japan accompanying the masterpiece “VICTIMS OF THE FUTURE” in which he teamed up with his ally Neil Carter. First, let’s check the show’s position from the schedule.・February 24th: Fukuoka Sun Palace Hall ・February 25th: Osaka Festival Hall ・February 27th: Osaka Welfare Pension Hall ←★This work★ ・February 28th: ​​Nagoya City Public Hall ・February 29th: Nippon Budokan “PRAY FOR VICTIMS” All 5 performances. Compared to their first visit to Japan, which was a “festival” with an all-star cast, the number of performances has decreased, but that’s because the Tokyo performances, which accounted for about half of the last time, were concentrated at Nippon Budokan. On the contrary, the number of performances in Osaka increased from the first performance in Japan, and the content was comparable to that of the second visit to Japan. Among them, the second day of this work in Osaka is a show whose record has not been known until now. So far, this is my second visit to Japan, and most of my performances have been at Nippon Budokan, so I’m sure many of you are hearing every single song and phrase on the second day in Osaka for the first time. And the quality is also great. The clarity that seems to have reached the limits of Odins is as expected from Kinney, and this work stands out among the collection. There is no mistaking it for a sound board as the very popular (and Japanese-style) clapping occurs, but the strength of its core and the dignity of the details are outside the standard. Not only can you hardly hear the hall sound even when listening with headphones, but the guitar, vocals, drums… almost all the sounds are clear and close. Only the base seems a little small, but this is probably the balance of the on-site PA. Even though the volume is low, each note is recorded well, and you can hear Craig Gruber’s surprisingly (excuse me!) skillful lines. What is depicted with such a sound is the essence of Gary’s HR style, which has reached its complete form with allies. This tour is also left on the traditional official edition “WE WANT MOORE!”, so let’s organize the set while comparing. ●G-FORCE (2 songs)・Rockin’ And Rollin’・Songs that cannot be heard on WE WANT MOORE!: White Knuckles ●CORRIDORS OF POWER (5 songs)・Cold Hearted/Don’t Take Me For A Loser/End Of The World ・Songs that cannot be heard on WE WANT MOORE!: Rockin’ Every Night/Wishing Well ●VICTIMS OF THE FUTURE (4 songs) ・Shapes of Things/Murder in the Skies/Victims of the Future/Empty Rooms ●Others (4 songs)・Back On The Streets/So Far Away・Songs that cannot be heard on WE WANT MOORE!: Nuclear Attack/Blinder…and so on. When they first came to Japan, they were biased towards “CORRIDORS OF POWER”, but now that the repertoire has increased, they have a well-balanced set. It feels like the songs that were unique to the early days have been carefully selected, as well as the representative songs that have continued to be played since then. Among them, “Blinder” is particularly valuable. This is the B-side of the single “Shapes Of Things”, and is a sharp instrumental number that includes a drum solo. It plays the role of “Hurricane” on its first visit to Japan, and Ian Paice’s light beat shines brightly. Not only was it not included in “WE WANT MOORE!”, but you can enjoy valuable numbers that were only played in 1984 with Kinney’s magical sound. And the passionate performance that spells out the set is wonderful. After all, Gary, who is the most important character, has fully blossomed since he gained his ally Carter. He himself does not challenge Gary with flashy solos, but he is perfect not only on the keyboard but also on the side guitar and vocals. Gary, who wants to do everything himself, does everything he can’t do on his own. When singing bassist: Bob Daisley joins here, it is completed perfectly, but it is clear that the completeness of the ensemble has greatly improved with Carter alone. In such a situation, Ian Pace, who was just about to reorganize DEEP PURPLE, goes wild on an equal footing with Gary. His drumming, which is at its peak with sharpness, power, and a variety of phrases, is unlike any other drummer. What’s more, unlike “WE WANT MOORE!”, it’s amazing that Pace plays the drums throughout the album, especially on “Murder in the Skies”, which Bobby Chownard also played on the studio version “VICTIMS OF THE FUTURE”. Versions can be valuable. Don’t go back to DEEP PURPLE! I can’t say that, but if Daisley/Pace got together a little later, I think they would have been the ultimate band that surpassed (in a different sense) their first visit to Japan. He lets me listen to it. If the first visit to Japan was a dream team, Neil Carter would be the ideal partner. This is a live album where you can enjoy the full show in 1984, when he and his partner laid the foundation for hard rock, with the best sound. To be able to listen to the precious second performance in Japan with such a good sound… A great album that everyone who loves “Hard Rockin’ Gary” should try. Complete first appearance sound source. Moreover, this day itself was the first appearance of the bootleg. And amazing sound quality. The best Gary Moore title of the past 10 years, with perfect content, value, and sound quality! ! !
