Led Zeppelin/Tokyo,Japan 9.24.1971

The Budokan performance on September 24th, the second day of the 1971 performance in Japan, which was sold out and out of print, will be released in the latest remaster. “A Hard Rock Night” was considered the best title of that day, as it was the longest recording of the second day of their first Budokan performance in Japan on September 24, 1971, but it has been over 10 years since its release. Thanks to advances in technology, it is now back in stock with even better sound. This work is not only the longest recording to date using three types of sources, but also “MOBY DICK”, which was the only song with a cut, is supplemented with two sources and is a complete recording. The sound quality is improved by pinpoint removal of the rattling noise in the midrange, resulting in a clearer and cleaner sound compared to the previous model. Even those who have the previous version may be surprised by the improved sound quality. It can be said that this is a title that truly demonstrates the effects of remastering, as processing that was impossible 10 years ago is now possible. As you know, the performance is perfect. Robert’s shouts are unmistakable, Jimmy delivers a killer riff one after another, and Jonesy accurately follows the bass line. And Bonzo, probably gaining strength from the sukiyaki he ate in Japan, exploded with heavy-duty drumming. Everything is at its peak. Japanese fans who were able to experience Zeppelin during this period are happy. And “A HARD ROCK NIGHT” is the perfect item to relive those happy moments. As the title suggests, the stage where they decide hard is a highlight. I have no other words. It is no exaggeration to say that all the highlights are the first performance in Japan, but the highlight of the second day is the medley that will be inserted into “WHOLE LOTTA LOVE”. On this day, “YOUR TIME IS GONNA COME” from the first album will be inserted. This song is a rare number that was performed live only on this day. Since it was a national holiday, the concert started while the sun was still bright, which is unusual. Why not imagine the atmosphere of that day and imagine the world 40 years ago? The longest recording of the Budokan performance on September 24th, the second day of the first performance in Japan in 1971, using three types of sources. Zeppelin is coming! Ah! Ah~! Ah~! (Read it with the intonation on the second “a~” like in the “Immigrant Song”). Please enjoy the effects of the latest remaster. DISC ONE 01. Introduction 02. Immigrant Song 03. Heartbreaker 04.
