Wishbone Ash/Aichi,Japan 1976

From the second Japan tour accompanying the sixth album “LOCKED IN” in 1976, the performance at Nagoya City Public Hall on October 13th at the end of the tour lasted for 1 hour and 32 minutes, from the original master that is not even available among traders. , recorded with the highest level of high quality audience recording. The person who recorded this edition is Miracleman, so the sound quality is guaranteed! ! The impressive twin guitar sound that was recorded thick and directly is truly amazing, and the overwhelming power of the sound will make you think, “Is this really amazing?” There is no doubt that fans will cry. Because the recording position is so close to the stage, the direct guitar sound that sounds like it’s being played right in front of you comes out of the speakers with more force than you could imagine! The guitar and bass are recorded with an unusually loud and direct sound, and the vocals sound a little unclear, perhaps because of the recording position? Even putting that aside, this sound is amazing! ! Has there ever been a Wishbone Ash performance in Japan that was recorded with such a vivid and thick sound? The way the band’s intense groove engulfed the entire venue was a sight to behold. Just listen to it and you’ll know just how amazing it is! Perhaps because of the success of the previous year’s tour, the 1976 Japan tour included 11 performances. At this stage, it included numbers from the unreleased 7th album “NEW ENGLAND”, and fans at the time were probably surprised by the opening song, Runaway in particular. Since there have already been 9 performances, Ash’s members have performed with ease, and the opening greeting is “Osu!”. I think this can be said for all of the 1976 Japan tour, but as the concert progresses, the sound output from the PA seems to become more organized, and in fact, the second half of the show, which can be heard on disc 2, has a more complete sound. It has become. The disadvantage is that a 90-minute tape is used, which cannot contain the entire show, with Bad Weather Blues recording up to 4 minutes and Jail Bait recording only 2 minutes. However, if it is the first performance in Nagoya in 1976, and the sound quality is as high as this, fans will definitely get it and there will be no loss! From the second Wishbone Ash Japan tour in 1976, a new high-quality edition is now available on CD.
