"Bowie performance storm" "Gal enthusiasm, dominoes" "40 people, fainting and injuries" ... The headline of the newspaper that danced in October 1983. This article reports the disaster that occurred during the "October 30, 1983 Expo '70 Commemorative Park (Osaka)" performance. This work is a live album that completely records the shocking night that is not even in Bowie's performance in Japan with the best sound.

This year, in addition to the big hit of "LET'S DANCE", the movie "Merry Christmas, Mr. Battlefield" was released, and the name of David Bowie spread even before general tea. The number of performances in Japan that was realized in the midst of unprecedented adultness was as many as 10 performances.
For that reason, a large number of people who were shining their eyes on "the most seasonal pop stars" rushed to the concert, causing great enthusiasm in various places. This work is an audience album that has 9 performances in such "SERIOUS MOONLIGHT JAPAN TOUR 1983". The recording was made by a famous recorder who is touted as one of the best in Japan, and from the 80's to the 90's, he left hyper recordings such as Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Mick Jagger, PINK FLOYD, GENESIS ... etc. A master among masters. It's a masterpiece that can't be beaten anymore, but this work is one in which the essence of such a master explodes to the fullest. This recording was once released as part of "MOONLIGHT SHADOW (Uxbridge 428)", but this time it has been re-digitized from the original cassette. It became a press with careful mastering.

The legendary master's essence, it was overwhelming from the beginning. I don't know the specific recording position, but it was probably on the PA side. It's a very close and clear sound like a sound board, and the Japanese MC "Good evening! It's the first performance in Japan in 5 years. David Bowie & His Band !! "Shi!" Roars. Of course, the musical tones are also close to the reality, and each instrument is so beautiful that each note is strangely beautiful, giving a direct feeling as if a PA chord was inserted into the brain. At the scene, a disaster far beyond the enthusiasm had happened, and although it turns out to be a fierce cheer, it is far from it. It is recorded with a wide, wide, quiet sound behind it.
