Michael Schenker Group/Osaka,Japan 1981 Afternoon Show

This was the first visit to Japan of the legend who created the “Hisho Legend”, which was realized in the summer 40 years ago. The Osaka sound board recording has been expanded to a complete form. This work is the first of its kind. This is a stereo soundboard recording of “August 19, 1981: Osaka Festival Hall (afternoon session)”. Speaking of MSG’s first visit to Japan, it is first and foremost “Hisho Densetsu”, but in addition to the Nippon Budokan, which was the stage, the best soundboard was left at the two performances in Osaka. It was made official as an official bootleg more than 10 years ago, but it has already been discontinued. Moreover, while the quality was superb, the incomplete recording was also a major flaw. This is where this work appeared. Based on the super best master equivalent to the official sound board, supplemented with the missing highest peak audience recording of the same day. Finished as a complete full live album. Two consecutive simultaneous releases of such complete versions. At our store, we have archived many masterpieces of MSG’s first visit to Japan, so please organize your collection by date. ・August 12th “Hisou Densetsu” & “DEFINITIVE BUDOKAN 1981” ・August 14th “NAGOYA 1981” ・August 17th “INTO THE PALACE (Fukuoka)” ・August 19th: Osaka Festival Hall (afternoon session) )←★This work★・August 19th “OSAKA 1981 EVENING SHOW”・August 20th: Kyoto Kaikan Hall 1 *Note: Only representative works are shown for each performance. Above are all 6 performances. Two performances will be held in Osaka on August 19th, and these two performances will be released simultaneously this week. This work is a full live album of “Afternoon Department”. Its quality is truly a superb stereo sound board. If you know the official version, you can consider it to be completely equivalent. If you have not experienced it, please think of it as a “completely official grade”. You might think, “It’s obvious since it’s been officially released,” but it’s not that simple. Even if the excavated soundboards of MSG and UFO are official, they are not very good, and some have digital deterioration that makes you wonder if they are being sent via mp3. However, Osaka Soundboard is an exception among exceptions. Although the mix is ​​rough and directly connected to the desk, the sound itself is beautiful and has no aging or digital deterioration. It is a super-super quality that is rarely seen even in official masterpieces of regular releases. Up to this point, it is said to be an official level, but the length of the complete recording exceeds the official level. The compensation situation is different for the “afternoon session” and the “evening session,” so let’s organize them here along with the sets. God (6 songs)・Armed And Ready/Cry For The Nations/Victim Of Illusion/Into The Arena/Tales Of Mystery/Lost Horizons (★: Intro solo only) Mythology (6 songs)・Attack Of The Mad Axeman/ But I Want More/On And On/Never Trust A Stranger/Let Sleeping Dogs Lie/Are You Ready To Rock Others – Ride of the Valkyries (★: Opening BGM) / 633 Bomber Squadron / 1812 (★: Drum Solo) / Courvoisier Concerto (★)／Doctor Doctor *Note: Songs marked with “★” were supplemented by audience recording. …and it looks like this. In the following songs, it may seem that “Tales Of Mystery” also has compensation, but this is only between songs. Roughly speaking, only two places, “Walkure at the beginning” and “drum solo/guitar solo in the second half”, are audience recordings. “Lost Horizons” also becomes a soundboard before the band comes in. And the audience recording used for compensation is also the best. The clear and transparent atmosphere is wonderful, the powerful core approaches right in front of your eyes, and the details are really fine. As expected, I can’t say that I don’t know how to switch with the sound board, but it’s a beautiful and beautiful recording that makes you want to say it’s like a so-called FM broadcast. In fact, contrary to this work, a CD project was also considered that would be “mainly based on audience recording and supplemented with a sound board for the tape change section”. The complete system that was born in this way is a masterpiece that surpasses Nippon Budokan. “Hisho Densetsu” is also famous for having undergone a large number of overdubs and replacements, but that can’t be helped. In fact, the first time I came to Japan was at the beginning of the tour that was held after finishing “Shinhwa” (actually, I also appeared at PINKPOP FESTIVAL as a warm-up, but there was no new song from “Shinhwa” and I didn’t have a chance to come to Japan) There was a gap of 2 months). The Budokan performance was the first day, and it was almost a live show. This was the world premiere of the new song. Well, I think the official live album was made at such a show, and after two performances, it rapidly grew. Although it cannot be said that it is still familiar to the whole body, it is delivering a full show that is well worth listening to even without overdubs or replacements. In 2009, the official “Hisho Densetsu” was expanded to a complete version, and this work is the Osaka edition. A full live album that is uncensored and unprocessed, but complemented by the finest audience recording on a super-excellent direct-connected stereo soundboard. This is a transcendent piece where the performance that surpasses the Nippon Budokan is poured directly into your brain with 100% original performance. Full soundboard recording of “August 19, 1981: Osaka Festival Hall (afternoon section)”. This is a complete version that complements the superb yet incomplete stereo sound board with the finest audience recording of the same day. Unlike the official “Hisho Densetsu”, which has a large number of overdubs and replacements, you can enjoy the full show, which is known for its great performance even on the legendary’s first visit to Japan, with a 100% live unedited and uncensored live performance.
