Synopsis

Album Description

Digitally remastered reissue, in standard jewel case, of this 1983 live album featuring 15 tracks. Original pre-remastered copies of this album did not include all 15 tracks originally on the vinyl version. The 2003 remastering added the missing tracks back onto the album, making this more than essential. Features live versions of 'Ghosts', 'Gentlemen Take Polaroids', 'Nightporter' and others. Virgin.

CD Reviews

Excellent live CD

David Garvin | Sugarland, TX USA | 05/31/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"As someone who discovered Japan while they were coming into their stride, I bought the later albums and singles as US imports. I never did see them perform live but I knew they had broken up by the time of this record's release.

The remastering CD improves vastly over the 2 record set in many ways (song and quality-wise). You can also see the video version on YouTube or perhaps DVD, but the real gem is this audio recording. This is prime quality Japan. They truly went out on a high note, since the music quality is top notch.

Highly recommended to anyone who has enjoyed any 80's Japan albums."
