Product Description
Contents: [Gatefold Paper Jacket Specification] [2SHM-CDs] ?EIncludes new Japanese liner notes for 2024. A crucial lineup in King Crimson history, this 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, and with 2024 mastering! The sixth installment features the final day of the Japan tour, the performance at Shinjuku Public Pension Hall! The October 1995 Japan tour marked a crucial phase in the short two-year live career of King Crimson, a rule-breaking six-member group that debuted with the album 'Slack'. The now out-of-print interactive video work 'Deja Vroom' was also produced from performances during this tour. The 1995 Japan tour recordings, spanning 11 performances (6 in Tokyo and 5 in other regions), were released on regular CD in 2018, but this time, it's divided into two series, Tokyo and regional, and is an upgraded version with the first-ever SHM-CD specification and gatefold paper jacket! This release features a new 2024 master, correcting the inconsistent sound quality of the previous series, while maintaining the stable soundboard audio quality of all performances. This is the final performance of the 1995 Japan tour, show #3 at the Shinjuku Kosei Nenkin Kaikan, returning to Tokyo. The performance is a dignified culmination of the bass style that was showcased at the Sendai performance the previous day, marking the second half of the tour! Comparing it to the Yokohama performance, the first day of the tour, released in January, you can really feel the various changes that occurred in their live style in just two weeks. This is a rich recording that shows that the two weeks of the Japan tour were the most important time for the six-member King Crimson! Japanese King Crimson fans have always been great, but this trend was particularly pronounced in 1995. This is a memorable performance recording that proves that it was Japanese fans who supported King Crimson! Includes new 2024 Japanese liner notes.
