Complete recording of the performance of Agora Hills, California on October 19, 2014 with ultra-high quality audience recording. What is surprising is the good sound quality, and it will be a gem that you can feel the high basic potential of AUD recording these days. The performance sound that can be heard directly with a close sound while having a good overall view, and the clear transparency of the moderate bass range and the treble range that does not kinky will deliver the performance of the day with outstanding comfort. Speaking of Asia at this time, the last tour of the year is running out (* Ends at London Bush Empire on November 2nd), and the tour schedule from March 2015 has also been announced, and the next year's tour is scheduled at this time. Is formed because the playing ability on the GRAVITAS tour was a hot topic. The current 2nd leg, which resumed on September 11, contains a lot of renewed performances that you can hear at a glance, so the impression you get is quite different from the performance you heard at the Japan performance in June. You can't miss the thing. This work is a title where you can experience the performance on the US tour in autumn from such GRAVITAS tour with the best sound quality!

In "Sole Survivor", a rich sound that feels a wide range from the introductory part blooms, and the excitement of listening to the recorded sound with high potential suddenly comes. The powerful performance that makes steady progress is outstanding, the call instead of greetings in the middle stage is also responsive and smooth, and the show update such as the final part that connects to the next with more drum hits and guitar choking sounds Let's enjoy the feeling. And what surprises me is that "Wildest Dreams". One of the factors is that the performance from the middle of the song is accompanied by the feeling of speed and strength as in the past, but the most important point is the dramatic change of Karl's drum solo just before the end of the song. The style of cutting the beat and putting a break for a moment, which was occasionally seen after the reunion in 2006, has been completely wiped out, reminiscent of how to hit on the 1982 North American tour and EL & P in the 70's. , It is changing to a style that puts in a lot of effort with an amazing super fast stroke. In the Hartford performance "HARTFORD 2014 (* It is a gift board released from our shop at the end of September for a week only)" on September 14, I could hear a little bit about it, but it has evolved further and it has a higher sprint. Dorami to show up the feeling at the highest price
I'm sure you'll be amazed by this. Furthermore, even at the end of the song where the bell rings, small ornamental sounds are scattered with cymbals, and the effect of these percussion instruments also gives the song a vitality that makes the song confusing. "Time Again" has also changed to a style in which the song moves so that the introductory part confirms each note, and the contrast with after the rhythm starts moving speedily is greatly emphasized. The impressive way of scattering the guitar phrases in the middle of the song and the guitar solo in the middle of the song are finally getting more and more attached to the board, and it is a performance that strongly tells Asia that Sam has become a true assimilation = family. It has become. In "Valkyrie", Wetton puts in an impressive singing push and melody extension in several places of the development part that rushes from around 3 minutes 30 seconds, and the song that tends to be poorly expressed changes from the singing side. You can see how they are trying to make it happen.
