Kiss/Osaka,Japan 3.24.1977

A fateful night when KISS and Japan met. The legendary original recording that has been handed down from beginning to end has been brushed up. [A unique record that records the first day of the legendary first visit to Japan] The night they met was “March 24, 1977: Osaka Welfare Pension Hall” performance. It is a legendary audience recording that vacuum-packs the one and only show even for the first visit to Japan. The biggest appeal of this work is the wonderful sound, but what is even more important is the position of the show. First, let’s take a look back at the legendary first visit to Japan.・March 24: Osaka Welfare Pension Hall ←★This work★ ・March 25: Osaka Welfare Pension Hall ・March 26: Kyoto Kaikan ・March 28: Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium ・March 30: Fukuoka City Kyuden Memorial Gymnasium April 1st: Nippon Budokan April 2nd: Nippon Budokan (2 performances day and night) ← *TV broadcast April 4th: Nippon Budokan A total of 9 performances. Speaking of their first visit to Japan, the four consecutive performances at Nippon Budokan that were set towards the end are symbolic, and the TV broadcast pro shot is especially famous. However, the Osaka performance of this work is the exact opposite, and it is the first stage even if it is the first time to visit Japan. Yes, it was the first one that became Lee’s number one live in Japan, where a total of 66 performances were realized over the next 42 years. This work records a unique show, and the recording itself is unique. The origin of this work is the master that first appeared as “THE FIRST SHOW INJAPAN”, but there has been no new excavation since then. It is no wonder that a large amount of recordings are left because it is such a memorial show, but this recording is the only one left after or before. [Amazing clear sound that is realistic and enthusiastic, yet easy to listen to] The quality is just as good as it is a historic and only recording…but you might think it’s a wonderful sound that is extremely valuable! A thick core pierces the center of the clear air, and every detail is crisp and clear. It is not the type that can be mistaken for a sound board, but the audience recording quality is only felt in the tone, there is no sense of distance, and there is no sense of sparseness. In rock history, there are occasional radio broadcasts recorded by microphones, but this work is just like that. The vivid listening response is a superb sound that is more like an FM broadcast than a guest record. What contributes to the feeling of the broadcast is the mysteriously distant audience noise. In fact, I am inhaling a large amount of loud applause and whistling that seems to be coming to Japan for the first time, but it feels much further away than the strong and meaty performance sound / singing voice. In fact, you can clearly see that there is quite a tremendous excitement between songs where there is no stage sound, but even then there is no close-up singing or screaming at all. The sense of perspective is as if the ocean is raging in the distance, and while the spectacle of the times feels real, it is not at all difficult to listen to. Moreover, this work is the highest peak updated version that has refined such clear recording with the latest mastering. Of course, there is no need to increase the sound pressure, and the original master retains the fresh sound to the maximum. Then, adjust each range from high to deep bass and adjust the balance. The treble has improved, while still providing plenty of mid-bass response. We created a sound that is not only a valuable record, but also a simple piece of music that you can completely immerse yourself in. What is depicted with such a clear sound is a fresh full show that can only be achieved by meeting for the first time. As mentioned above, the Nippon Budokan pro shot is the standard for their first visit to Japan, so let’s compare and organize the sets.・KISS (4 songs): Firehouse/Cold Gin/Nothin’ To Lose/Black Diamond・HOTTER THAN HELL (1 song): Let Me Go, Rock And Roll・DRESSED TO KILL (1 song): Rock And Roll All Nite・DESTROYER (5 songs): Detroit Rock City / Do You Love Me? (★) / God Of Thunder / Shout It Out Loud (★) / Beth (★)・ROCK AND ROLL OVER (4 songs): Take Me (★) /Ladies Room (★) / Makin’ Love / I Want You (★) *Note: Songs marked with a “★” cannot be heard on the Nippon Budokan TV broadcast pro shots. …and it looks like this. This work is a single piece of 78 minutes, but it is completely recorded. Of the 15 songs played that day, 6 of them, more than 1/3, are in the repertoire that cannot be heard even in Budokan pro shots, and you can enjoy rare and delicious numbers from around the world such as “Take Me” and “Ladies Room.” However, even more than that is the unique mood and tension that pervades the entire story. After all, this is the first day of your first visit to Japan. It was the first time for everyone to experience it, and each of the now-famous tricks filled them with a fresh sense of joy, and instead of saying, “I’ve been waiting for it!”, they were surprised, saying, “What the heck is this!?” Of course, that also applies to KISS. Even though I had experience in Europe, this was my first time in Asia, where no English was spoken, and I couldn’t imagine what kind of reaction I would get. At first, they seemed to be shaking off their apprehensions, but they were energized by the tremendous enthusiasm of the Japanese people and rapidly became excited with each song. This work is also a sound that allows you to feel the psychology of these four people. Over the next 42 years, he visited Japan 12 times. They left a total of 66 performances in Japan. What you can enjoy in this work is the first time. The one and only best live album that records the most important night of “KISSinJapan”. Its highest peak update edition.
