Product Description
Contents: [Gatefold Paper Jacket Specification] [2SHM-CDs] ?EIncludes new Japanese liner notes for 2024. This is the first time the stereo soundboard recording of the Japan tour, a crucial lineup in King Crimson history that defined the double-trio live style, has been renewed in SHM-CD format, paper jacket specification, and 2024 mastering! The fourth installment features the audio from the second day at Nakano Sun Plaza, which also served as the basis for "Deja Bloom"! The Japan tour in October 1995 marked a crucial phase in the live activities of King Crimson, a rule-breaking six-member group that appeared with the album "Slack," and which ended after only two years. The interactive video work "Deja Bloom," which is now out of print, was also produced from performances during this tour. The 1995 Japan tour, which comprised 11 shows (6 in Tokyo and 5 in other regions), was released on standard CD in 2018. This time, however, it's divided into two series?the Tokyo and regional editions?and is an upgraded version featuring SHM-CD specifications and a gatefold paper jacket! While maintaining the stable sound quality of all soundboard recordings, it's released with a new 2024 master that corrects the inconsistencies in sound quality found in the previous series. This performance served as the basis for the video works "Deja Vroom" and "Live in Japan 1995: Official Edition." However, the sound quality differs from both of those. The mix, which is centered overall, gives a well-balanced and solid impression. Both "Deja Vroom" and "Live in Japan 1995" are out of print, making this the only complete version of this performance available, and therefore highly valuable. Among the recordings of the 6 Tokyo shows and 5 regional shows, this one has a unique atmosphere and a mysterious texture. Includes new Japanese commentary for the 2024 edition. [Bonus Features] Application form for a Type A T-shirt (bonus for purchasers of all 6 titles) is included (included only in the first shipment). *Please refer to the announcement flyer inside the product for application details and deadlines.

A crucial lineup in King Crimson history, the stereo soundboard recording of the Japan tour that defined the double-trio live style has been renewed for the first time on SHM-CD, in a paper jacket with 2024 mastering! The fourth release is the recording from the second day at Nakano Sun Plaza, which also served as the basis for 'Deja Bloom'! (C)RS
