Stranglers/Tokyo,Japan 1979 2 Source

From the legendary 1979 Japan tour, the live performance at Korakuen Hall on February 18th was released on CD directly from the FM on-air air check master at the time. Because it was recorded from the air check master, the quality is much better than the online sound sources, and the texture of the sound is quite different between the first and second halves, with the first half being a fairly rough mix, and the second half featuring a heavy, gritty bass sound. Although the DJ talk overlaps with the performance part, it also includes valuable episodes from the day of the live, and is recorded as is as a valuable document. Therefore, the venue was quite chaotic at the end of the live, and the organizer said “Please wait a moment!”, and in the background, you can hear the sound of the folding chairs clanging, and the concert organizer’s excited announcement of “Calm down! Just stay there!” was heard as the band rushed into the performance, which was so real. In addition, on December 16th, the second visit to Japan that year, a CD of the live performance at the same hall, almost in full, was added from the audience master. This is a cassette recording by a mono audience, so the quality is harsh, but it has been remastered and is of the best quality currently available. CD : 1. 5 Minutes (Incl. DJ Talk) 2.
