The original A-DAT multi-track data is released on CD for the first time in the world with an Alex Mundy mix. As this was the first of three performances at the same venue, the opening was not the standard from April 2003 onwards, which went from "The Power to Believe I" to "Level 5," but rather the same structure as the March US tour and Matsumoto performance, starting with "The Construction..." The mix is ??well-balanced and the sound quality is bright, making it a pleasant listening experience. In the second half, during "Dangerous Curve" and "Larks' Tongues in Aspic Part IV," there are moments where he almost misses the rhythm, possibly due to the monitor's influence, but he overcomes it with sheer force, which ironically creates a sense of tension. While the performance on the 16th, the day after the show, is famous and was released as the live CD "Electric" and DVD "Eyes Wide Open," this recording is also worth checking out. Was the TV recording really only on the 16th? What was the true meaning behind Robert's statement after the 16th show that the second TV recording was a stronger performance than the first? The mysterious 3 days at Kosei Nenkin Kaikan, which took place only 20 years ago, are still shrouded in mystery, so pay attention to the liner notes that delve into the first two days!
