Rod Stewart/Tokyo,Japan 1981 Broadcast Edition

From the 1981 Japan tour at the height of his popularity, a live performance at Nippon Budokan in Tokyo on May 12th was recorded over 49 minutes with professional shot footage from the TV air check master at the time. This is a DVD of the final day of the Japan tour, which was the most in his career, with 11 tours in total, recorded from the famous program “Young Music Show” at the time. Although there is some tracking noise, the video quality was groundbreaking at a time when VHS decks were not yet widespread. And since it is edited to fit the approximately 50-minute broadcast frame, it is far from a full live performance, but it is a condensed version of his representative songs, and Carmine Appice’s drum solo is included in the middle of “(I Know) I’m Losing You”. In any case, all of Rod’s solo hits from the 70s are covered, and since it is a performance from Rod’s visit to Japan at the height of his youth, it is a must-see item for fans of the past.
