Jack Bruce,Vernon Reid,John Medeski,Cindy Blackman/Tokyo,Japan 12.16.2008 Vol.2

Part 2 of the definitive item from The Tony Williams Lifetime tribute live held exclusively in Japan with Jack Bruce at the end of 2008! A complete recording of the second stage on December 16th, the third day of the series of tours (second day in Tokyo), which was moved from Yokohama to Tokyo, with a sound quality that can only be described as “perfect”. I’m doing it. In this second set, “Allah Be Praised” and “One Word” were set in place of “Emergency”, and the band’s tension was very high, and the content was so spectacular that the first stage performance felt quiet. It has become. Like “Play It Loud vol.1” which recorded the first set of the day, the original master of the highest quality recorded from the center of the front of the venue has been subjected to 24-bit digital remastering and has amazing sound quality. Of course, there’s Jack, who is full of his jazz-rock soul, as well as Vernon Reid, whose guitar sound is different from McLaughlin and Holdsworth, but plays surprisingly Lifetime-like, and John Medeski, who gave a heartfelt performance, even bringing in the mellotron. , and Cyndi Blackman, who perfectly reproduces the inhuman beating of “lead drummer Tony Williams.”This is a masterpiece that captures all instruments with perfect balance and localization, and is an item of confidence. 01. opening 02.
