Rickie Lee Jones/NY,USA 2019

Rickie Lee Jones released his cover album “KICKS” and has fresh memories of his wonderful performance in Japan. A masterpiece live album that deepens the aftertaste is now available. This work includes “March 1, 2019 Albany performance”. This is the best audience recording. She is currently in the middle of a world tour to celebrate her 40th anniversary since her debut, and her recent performance in Japan was part of that tour. In order to get an idea of ​​the current situation, let’s first check out the show’s position from an overview of their 2019 activities. ・February 21st – March 3rd: North America #1 (8 performances) ←★Here★《KICKS released on May 15th》 ・May 16th + 17th: Japan (2 performances) ・June 1st -23rd: North America #2 (7 performances) / June 30th – July 7th: Europe #1 (3 performances) / July 18th – 20th: North America #3 (3 performances) / August 17th : Riverhead performance ・October 7th-23rd: North America #4 (11 performances) ・October 27th-November 20th: Europe #2 (4 performances) This is the schedule announced so far. They play shows every day and every night and travel…or rather, they go back and forth between their home country of America and other parts of the world, holding mini-tours with a few performances at a time. At the age of 64, you can see her leisurely and leisurely activities. The Albany performance of this work was in the very early days of 2019. This is the 6th concert of “North America #1″, which dates back to the Japan performance. Although it has been a while, this is the latest sound source that was released recently after the Japan performance. This work, which records such a show, is a neat and heart-melting audience recording. The best thing about it is that it has a strong core. It’s a little different from the close contact feeling of a sound board, but you can hardly feel the hall sound and the crisp core jumps straight into your hand. Because it is a simple trio consisting of only guitar and percussion, the contours of each note are unusually vivid and do not blend together. The singing voice can clearly understand every word of the lyrics, and there is plenty of dynamism, from breath-level whispers to large-scale singing. And just neat. The applause that erupts between songs seems slightly distorted, but the essential singing voice and performance are extremely natural. It is a beautiful recording with a sense of reality even in her breathing. The beautiful sound depicted is a show that seems to be celebrating the 40th anniversary of their debut, and yet is similar to the performance in Japan. Let’s organize the contents here. ●RICKIE LEE JONES (7 songs)・Weasel and the White Boys Cool, Young Blood, Chuck E.’s in Love, The Last Chance Texaco, Danny’s All-Star Joint, Coolsville, On Saturday Afternoons in 1963 ●PIRATES (3 songs )・We Belong Together, Living It Up, Pirates (So Long Lonely Avenue) ●FLYING COWBOYS (2 songs)・Love Is Gonna Bring Us Back Alive, The Horses ●Others (3 songs)・It Must Be Love (THE MAGAZINE) , The Albatross (TRAFFIC FROM PARADISE), Bad Company (KICKS)… and so on. The centerpiece is, of course, his debut work “RICKIE LEE JONES (Romantic),” which has been released 40 years since its release. 7 out of 11 songs were also sold on a large scale, with 3 songs from “PIRATES” supporting them. The rest are mostly 80’s numbers, interspersed with 90’s “The Albatross” and “Bad Company,” which was covered in the latest album “KICKS.” The major features of “Roman” are similar to the recent performance in Japan, but the selection is very different. Our repertoire includes three songs from his debut, “Young Blood,” “Danny’s All Star Joint,” and “Coolsville,” “It Must Be Love” from “THE MAGAZINE,” and “The Albatross” from “TRAFFIC FROM PARADISE.” Something that can’t be heard even in the masterpiece “TOKYO 2019”. Even those who experienced “TOKYO 2019” can enjoy a completely different show with a strong image of the 40th anniversary. Even at the age of 64, Ricky still has a delicate and powerful singing voice. It is a masterpiece that allows you to directly feel its power and experience it with crystal clear, superb sound. For those who experienced the recent performance in Japan, this is a live album that can be enjoyed as a treasure chest of even more masterpieces, and for those who haven’t, as the culmination of the 40th anniversary.
