Kiss/Tokyo,Japan 4.1.1977 Original US 2LP Edition Upgrade

KISS’s first visit to Japan, which left a huge impact on the history of Western music in Japan. The storyteller recording has been upgraded. This is the highest peak update edition, reprinted from the legendary US LP. This work is recorded at the “April 1, 1977: Nippon Budokan” performance. This is the best audience recording. Speaking of the Nippon Budokan’s first visit to Japan, the TV broadcast pro shot is legendary above all, and our shop’s complete version “COMPLETE BUDOKAN 1977 AFTERNOON SHOW/EVENING SHOW” is also familiar. Let’s first check the positional relationship of each of them in light of the schedule of their visit to Japan at that time.・March 24th “OSAKA 1977 1ST NIGHT” ・March 25th: Osaka Welfare Pension Hall ・March 26th: Kyoto Hall ・March 28th: ​​Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium ・March 29th: Osaka Festival Hall ・March 30th: Fukuoka City Kyuden Memorial Gymnasium ・April 1st: Nippon Budokan ←★This work★ ・April 2nd “ALIVE AT BUDOKAN (Daytime performance)” & Pro Shot ・April 2nd “BUDOKAN 1977 2ND NIGHT (Night performance)” & Pro Shot ・April 4th: Nippon Budokan All 9 performances above. At Nippon Budokan, 4 performances were held over 3 days, and the pro shots were recorded on “April 2nd”, which was 2 performances a day. In contrast, this work was recorded on the previous day, “April 1st”. This show has been known for its famous recordings since the analog era, and has been a staple that has produced many existing performances. “FIRST BUDOKAN NIGHT 1977” has been popular for many years. This work is also a traditional recording, but it is a major upgrade. Its true identity is the great American LP bootleg “TAKES TOKYO ’77”. This recording was originally pressed in various countries, and the single “MAMA WEER ALL CRAZY NOW” was famous in Japan. However, the best was the two-disc US version “TAKES TOKYO ’77”. This work has been meticulously digitized from that mint quality version. In fact, the sound is completely different. The difference is clear when compared to our “FIRST BUDOKAN NIGHT 1977”, which has traditionally been said to be the best. Compared to “FIRST BUDOKAN NIGHT 1977”, which was light and sparse even with its fierce clearness, this work is solid and thick. The density and direct feeling have improved by an order of magnitude. That is the extremely thick sound that even approaches the broadcast sound board of the Young Music Show. The conventional master was legendary enough, but the original sound was not enough. Such a big upgrade sound depicts a legendary scene that is different from the pro shot. The set itself is the same as “COMPLETE BUDOKAN 1977 AFTERNOON SHOW / EVENING SHOW”, but it is far more than the TV broadcast pro shot. Let’s compare them at the end and organize them. Hell’s Army (5 songs) Detroit Rock City / Do You Love Me (★) / God Of Thunder / Shout It Out Loud (★) / Beth (★) Others (10 songs) Hell’s Messenger: Firehouse / Cold Gin / Nothin’ To Lose / Black Diamond Hell’s Rock Fire: Take Me (★) / Ladies Room (★) / Makin’ Love / I Want You (★) Others: Let Me Go, Rock And Roll / Rock And Roll All Nite *Note: The “★” mark indicates a song that was not shown on TV. …And so it is. This is all the songs that were performed on the day. Although the intervals between the songs seem to have been compressed by editing, you can enjoy all the essential performances. Even so, it is wonderful. Who would have thought that the traditional recording had such a powerful and heavy rich sound. This is an album excavated from the original master before the LP. The legendary sound that was only left on the unknown US LP. The finest audience recording of the “April 1, 1977: Nippon Budokan” performance. This is a live album from the day before, different from the famous pro shot, and is a masterpiece digitized from the American LP bootleg masterpiece “TAKES TOKYO ’77”. The sound is much better than the famous “MAMA WEER ALL CRAZY NOW” in Japan, and the sound is bold and thick. You can experience the legendary first visit to Japan with an extremely thick sound that even approaches the famous sound board the next day.
