Thin Lizzy Thin Lizzy/Tokyo,Japan 1980

From the second visit to Japan in 1980 to release the album “Chinatown”, the performance at Nakano Sun Plaza on September 25th was almost completely recorded in master quality, stereo soundboard sound source leaked by the related parties. First of all, the master was a cassette tape directly connected to the desk, which caused some hiss noise, and the drums started out slightly recessed at the beginning, which was gradually corrected, and the overall balance improved as the concert progressed. Also, except for the tape change cut at the beginning of “Chinatown”, Phil’s vivid vocals and the output of the bass were loud, and the cheers of the audience were hardly heard, so the entire performance was recorded clearly throughout, making it a truly valuable record. And on guitar, Snowy White, who was also a live support for Floyd at the time, teamed up with Scott Gorham to develop a wonderful guitar combination, and also showed off flowing guitar solos in each song. The set was unique to this time, featuring six songs from “Chinatown” and some representative numbers from the past, as well as rare numbers such as “Memory Pain” on the B-side of the single “Trouble Boys”. The most amazing part was the medley from “The Cowboy Song” to “The Boys Are Back In Town” from the middle of the show, with each part building up dramatically. This collector’s edition is a must-have for fans, featuring a historically valuable performance in Japan.
