AC/DC's return to Japan in 1982 was a monumental milestone in the history of Japanese HR/HM. The original recording that allows you to experience the highlight performance on-site has been brushed up. It is now available with the supreme sound that has been meticulously mastered by "GRAF ZEPPELIN". This work is recorded from the "June 18, 1982: Nippon Budokan" performance. This is a masterpiece audience recording. Their first visit to Japan was in 1981 during the "Back in Black" era, and their second visit was in 1982 during the "Devil's Invitation" era. This was their only visit to Japan in their golden age, and their third visit was 19 years later. Here, let's take a bird's-eye view of their two consecutive visits to Japan. 1981, February 1st: Osaka Expo Hall, February 2nd: Aichi Prefectural Labor Hall, February 4th "TOKYO 1981 1ST NIGHT: DEFINITIVE MASTER", February 5th "DEFINITIVE NIHON SEINENKAN 1981" & TV broadcast 1982, June 4th: Osaka Festival Hall, June 6th: Osaka Expo Hall, June 8th: Kyoto Kaikan, June 9th: Nagoya City Public Hall, June 10th: Nippon Budokan ←★This work★ *Only representative masterpieces for each day. 9 performances above. The first Tokyo performance in Japan was two days at the Nippon Seinenkan, but the following year in 1982 they moved on to the Nippon Budokan. It was the last live in Japan of the golden age, which was the highlight. This work is a masterpiece audience recording that vacuum-packs such a historic night. This is a famous recording that was digitized directly from the original cassette by the master "Miracle Man" and was once loved as "LIVE AT BUDOKAN". This is a masterpiece master that "GRAF ZEPPELIN" has polished up. The sound is just the best ever. The important thing here is that "GRAF ZEPPELIN"'s mastering method is natural-oriented. Rather than trying to build up sound pressure for the sake of instant listening, they place the utmost importance on bringing out the sound of the master tape to the maximum and reproducing the "sound of the band" that actually existed behind it. To be specific, it is an accumulation of small corrections and corrections. The beginning of "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" was recorded separately as "AT BUDOKAN (Shades 190)" to achieve the longest sound ever, but what is more important is the sound that runs through the entire work. Pitch correction and phase deviation correction are performed at a level that does not allow even 1/1000th of a second of deviation, and the unevenness of the tape that occurs during digitization (or recording) is also corrected. Furthermore, frequency band analysis is also essential. The subtle distortions caused by the aging of the tape and the playback environment are fine-tuned to reproduce the "on-site sound". The resulting sound is full of naturalness. The subtle distortions that were left on the previously released version (this is hard to put into words, but it may be easier to feel the applause between songs than the sound of the performance) are naturally arranged. You can experience the one-night-only "AC/DC at the Budokan" in real life, both later and in the future. And that full show is historic. Our shop also has a very popular original recording of their first visit to Japan, "TOKYO 1981 1ST NIGHT: DEFINITIVE MASTER (Zodiac 449)", so let's compare and organize them. 70's Classics (9 songs) Rock Soul: Bad Boy Boogie/Whole Lotta Rosie/Let There Be Rock Others: The Jack/T.N.T./Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (★)/Sin City/Shot Down In Flames/Highway To Hell 80's (6 songs) Back in Black: Hells Bells/Shoot To Thrill (★)/Back In Black/Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution (★)/You Shook Me All Night Long Devil's Invitation: Let's Get It Up (★) *Note: Songs marked with "★" were not performed on their first visit to Japan. ...And so on. In addition to the title track, which they began performing after the release of "DIRTY DEEDS DONE DIRT CHEAP" in the US, they also performed the killer tracks "Shoot To Thrill" and "Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution" from "Back in Black". It seems surprising that they didn't play it on their first visit to Japan, but that was a real-time feeling when they hadn't yet decided which song would be their signature song. And the best example of that feeling is "Let's Get It Up." This song itself is a rare song exclusive to the "FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK Tour," but what's even more decisive is that they didn't play the title song of "Devil's Invitation." It's an unavoidable highlight song now, but at this point it hadn't established its status. It's the very scent of the era. The highlight is not "For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)," but "T.N.T.", and this work ends with a tremendous storm of "encore! encore!". With this "T.N.T.", AC/DC's visit to Japan will be sealed for 19 long years. The 1982 Nippon Budokan became legendary for its intense live performance. This work is a documentary album that allows you to be present at the legendary scene with the finest natural sound. (Remastering Memo) Phase correction. Full band review. The tone of the applause, which has a strong habit, has been considerably lowered. The beginning of "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" is supplemented with another source from the day. The timing of the disc change has been changed from the previous time (Disc 1 was long last time). A masterpiece audience recording of the "June 18, 1982: Nippon Budokan" performance. A masterpiece that "GRAF ZEPPELIN" has polished up the famous recording that was directly digitized from the original cassette of the master "Miracle Man". The sound is full of naturalness and has been updated to the highest level ever. Even the subtle distortion that was left on the previously released version has been naturally adjusted, allowing you to experience the one-night-only "AC/DC at Budokan" in real life, both later and in the future. This is a cultural heritage album of Japanese Western music history where you can experience the legendary night on the spot, where the rare song "Let's Get It Up" also pops out.
