“THE BAD Tour” was his first solo tour and achieved world domination. The valuable TV broadcast pro shot collection has been decided to be released. “THE BAD Tour” is truly a monster. It was the era itself. With the astronomical success of ``Thriller'', Michael stepped into territory uncharted by mankind, and along with the announcement of ``Bad'', he embarked on a long-awaited solo tour. A total of 123 performances in 15 countries were held over 16 months, attracting approximately 4.4 million people. He earned 125 million dollars (15.625 billion yen at the exchange rate at the time). Its scale far exceeded the dimension of a performance by a single artist, and it was a ``historical phenomenon'' that became a symbol of popular music culture itself. This event can be seen on the 25th anniversary edition of "BAD", and various other TV broadcasts were also held in various countries around the world. This work is a compilation work carefully selected from such TV broadcasts. This work consists of two major parts. Let's introduce each one individually. [First half: MTV's World Tour Special (approximately 53 minutes)] First up is MTV's tour special, "The Bad Tour 1988 MTV Special." This work is packed with a total of about 94 minutes of professional shots, but he is the main character of this work, which takes up more than half of that time. There are various ways to look at special programs, but this program is what you might call a "road movie." Although it uses plenty of extremely rare live scenes, it is by no means limited to only that, and features large crowds from all over the world with various races mixed together, and is also full of off-shots of events, travel, sightseeing, etc. It's exactly like "traveling around the world with Michael." Normally, we would call it a "documentary," but that might give the wrong impression. In fact, there are interviews with band members, crew, staff, and fans (of course, Jennifer Batten and Sheryl Kando also appear!), but these are just comments. ``It's an honor to be on tour,'' ``That time was really amazing,'' ``Michael is just the best!'' and so on, all of which are so easy to understand that you can understand the content even without subtitles. In the case of this work, the scenery itself tells us more than that. Any artist would be great at showing scenes from around the world, but the size and variety of the crowds that were there were amazing. Fans of all skin colors and features - black, white, Hispanic, Mongoloid, etc. - flooded in one after another, singing, dancing, shaking, crying, and staring at Michael with ecstatic expressions. Of course, it also features plenty of Japan, which was the kick-off location for the tour. A press conference was held in front of a gold folding screen while sipping Japanese tea with Bubbles, and the classic Shinkansen and visits to elementary schools and kindergartens also appeared. In China and Hong Kong, which was still a British colony, people dressed up in the clothes and ethnic costumes of the old men in the neighborhood (they look just like Disney characters!), and in Europe and the United States, sirens are blaring and the scene resembles a riot scene. . Of course, many of these scenes are covered with Michael's music, and valuable live performances are also mixed in. It seems to be an hour-long clip with the theme of "world tour", and its breadth is unique to Michael, something that no band/artist can achieve. The true meaning of "world domination" is clearly reflected. [Second half: Stage pro shots from each country (approximately 41 minutes)] After the MTV special program, there is a collection of straight rare footage. “Rare Lives 1988” is a collection of multi-camera professional shots of live stages performed around the world. It's almost a fragmented video of each song, and each one is independent, so the quality varies. However, it is a treasure collection where you can enjoy about 40 minutes of a different performance from “LIVE AT WEMBLEY”. Although it is not exact because there is a digest video of various venues mixed, you can see 9 takes from approximately 3 locations (Kansas City performance / London performance / Houston performance). Let's organize the distribution as well. Solo (3 songs, 5 takes)・Off the Wall: Rock With You・Bad: Another Part Of Me (3 takes)/Dirty Diana Others (4 songs, 4 takes)・Triumph: Heartbreak Hotel (3 takes)・Medley: I Want You Back/The Love You Save/I'll Be There *In addition to this, there are two other digests from each region. Future historians may characterize the late 1980s as the era in which popular culture flourished the most in human history. The king at the center of it all was definitely Michael Jackson, and it was on “THE BAD Tour” that his charm enveloped the entire earth. This work is packed with the music of one artist, but at the same time it is also a moment in time when a culture created by humanity reached its ``extreme''. This is a piece that makes you feel nostalgic for that era, but also makes you feel happy that you were able to travel in the same era.
