Description
U2 in 1987 was at the height of their astronomical success with “THE JOSHUA TREE”. The classic pro shot that lets you enjoy the full show has been upgraded. A new version with clear and dynamic sound has been released. This work was shot at the “November 18, 1987 Los Angeles performance”. This is a multi-camera pro shot. Speaking of the footage of “THE JOSHUA TREE Tour”, the official “U2 / Scream of the Soul” comes to mind, but this work is quite close in time, although it is a completely different performance. In order to understand such a situation, let’s start with an overview of their activities at that time. 1987 “THE JOSHUA TREE” released on March 9th April 2nd – May 16th: North America #1 (29 performances) May 27th – August 8th: Europe (31 performances) September 10th – December 20th: North America #2 (50 performances) ←★ Here ★ This is the “THE JOSHUA TREE” era that rose to the darling of the era. Both this work and the official “U2 / Scream of the Soul” were filmed at “North America #2” in the latter half of the tour. Let’s zoom in on the schedule here. Details of “North America # 2” ・ September 10th – November 7th (31 performances) * November 8th: Denver performance (official 7 songs) * November 11th: San Francisco performance (official 1 song) ・ November 12th – 17th (4 performances) * November 18th: Los Angeles performance ← ★ This work ★ ・ November 22nd + 23rd (2 performances) * November 24th: Fort Worth performance (official 1 song) ・ November 26th + 28th (2 performances) * November 30th: Sun Studio (official 1 song) ・ December 3rd – 12th (6 performances) * December 19th: Tempe performance (official 1 song) * December 20th: Tempe performance (official 4 songs) … and so on. “U2 / Scream of the Soul” was also recorded in the studio and rehearsals, so the above is not everything, but you can understand that the main was “North America # 2”. The Los Angeles performance of this work was also in between the production of “U2 / Scream of the Soul”. It is a full live video that blows out the same band potential as that video. As mentioned above, the pro shot of this day has been known for a long time, but this work is an upgrade by overseas enthusiasts. In terms of gene, it is the same as the conventional best master, but the highlight is the sound. In addition to the sound board of the TV broadcast, the audience recording of the day is matrixed. This is already extremely effective. The original broadcast sound board was a flat and flat mono, but with the help of the audience, it has been significantly scaled up. Not only the stereo feeling but also the dynamic range has been dramatically widened, the treble is stretched and clear, and the bass has been reborn with each sound clearly. Of course, the adhesion and strength of the sound board are also firmly alive. The sound up to this point cannot be achieved simply by the highest level of audience recording. The audience needs to have the personality to follow up on the weak points of the sound board well, and matrix technology after understanding its characteristics is also essential. The mania who created this work seems to be a master with both the ability to see through and the sense to layer. The standard pro shot upgraded with such a genius matrix is the full show of the climax “THE JOSHUA TREE Tour”, which can be called the “real version of RATTLE AND HUM”. Usually, I would compare it with the official version of “RATTLE AND HUM”, but since it is so different, I will organize it as it is here. Joshua Tree (7 songs) Where The Streets Have No Name / I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For / Exit / In God’s Country / Bullet The Blue Sky / Running To Stand Still / With Or Without You Others (15 songs) WAR (fight): Sunday Bloody Sunday / New Year’s Day / 40 ?: MLK / The Unforgettable Fire / Bad / Pride (In The Name Of Love) Others: I Will Follow / Out Of Control / Gloria / October / Trash, Trampoline and the Party Girl Covers: Helter Skelter / Help! / Stand By Me … and so on. Of the 22 songs centered on “THE JOSHUA TREE” and “THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE” numbers, 12 overlap with the video version of “RATTLE AND HUM”. About half are different from the official video. In particular, the covers are diverse, and not only “Helter Skelter” but also “Help!” and “Stand By Me” will be performed. The classic pro shot that conveys the glorious “THE JOSHUA TREE Tour” will be upgraded with a matrix with audience recording. I was not particularly dissatisfied with the sound of the conventional master, but I can not go back to the previous one once I experienced this work. A new standard born from the idea of the egg of Columbus. A multi-camera pro shot of the “November 18, 1987 Los Angeles performance”. An upgraded version of the standard video that has been known for a long time, the audience recording is matrixed on the sound board of the TV broadcast. The original broadcast sound was flat and flat mono, but with the help of the audience, it has been significantly scaled up. Not only the stereo feeling but also the dynamic range has been dramatically widened, the high notes are stretched out, and the bass has been reborn with each sound clearly and clearly. It is a new standard that allows you to enjoy the full show of the climax that will be the “real version of RATTLE AND HUM”.
