Michael Jackson/September 27, 1987 Yokohama Stadium Kanagawa,Japan 1987

Michael Jackson's first solo visit to Japan was the biggest event in the history of Japanese Western music. The highest quality version of that symbolic video will be released. This work includes “September 27, 1987: Yokohama Stadium Performance”. This is the multi-camera pro shot. This video is one of the classics...or should I say, this video itself was a symbol of the times. Immediately after arriving in Japan, it was broadcast as a special program during an unusual prime time on October 31st, and Western music fans all over Japan went crazy. Of course, that air check has produced countless existing groups, but this work stands at its highest peak. This is an upgraded version with a different master from the previous gift title, and the regular release version was a big hit the other day. Not only is it more beautiful, but it is also the complete broadcast version, which is about 19 minutes longer than the previous version, including nostalgic commercials. [The best version of the famous video that symbolizes his first solo visit to Japan] Before we get into the content, let's first look at the show's position. “BAD WORLD TOUR” was Michael’s first solo tour, and Japan was the place that received the honor of kicking off the tour. Let's look back at the schedule at the time when it was called the "Michael Typhoon." [“Bad” released on August 31st] [September 9th: Arrival in Japan]・September 11th: Korakuen Stadium (rehearsal)・September 12th-14th: Korakuen Stadium (3 performances)・September 19th -21st: Hankyu Nishinomiya Stadium (3 performances) September 25th - October 4th: Yokohama Stadium (5 performances) ←★Here★ October 10th - 12th: Osaka Stadium (3 performances)《October 19th: Departure》 Total of 14 performances (+1). Initially, there were plans for three performances in Yokohama, but due to overwhelming enthusiasm, the number was expanded to five. This work was filmed at the third concert. This work, which records such a show, is truly a masterpiece with a "super" rating. At our store, we have archived a number of music programs with the best masters by domestic core record enthusiasts, and this work is also the Michael edition. There are no dubbing marks as there are no dubbing marks, and there is no deterioration over time due to the careful preservation environment of enthusiasts. Of course, high-end equipment at the time of recording was used, and there was no white line noise or running kinks on the screen, with careful attention paid to the reception environment and wiring. It's as beautiful as if it was created from an official laser disc (of course, it was never officially released). What is depicted with such visual beauty is Michael's passionate performance when he was still in his 20s. In addition to their sharp dance moves, they will perform a number of hit songs with plenty of live vocals. Speaking of “BAD WORLD TOUR”, the official DVD “LIVE AT WEMBLEY” has become a symbol, but since his first solo visit to Japan was at the beginning of the tour, the set was different. Let's compare and organize them here. Solo Off the Wall: Off The Wall (★) / She's Out Of My Life / Rock With You / Workin' Day And Night Thriller: Wanna Be Startin' Something / Human Nature / Beat It / Billie Jean / Thriller Bad: I Just Can't Stop Loving You/Bad Jackson 5/The Jacksons・DESTINY: Things I Do For You (★)/Shake Your Body (★)・TRIUMPH: Heartbreak Hotel/Lovely One (★)・Others: I Want You Back/The Love You Save/I'll ​​Be There *Note: Songs marked with a "★" are not seen in the official video "LIVE AT WEMBLEY". ...and it looks like this. The content basically follows THE JACKSONS' "VICTORY TOUR 1984", but instead of the Jermaine corner, "Thriller" and new songs "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" and "Bad" have been added. [Completely includes commercials that instantly heighten the sense of the times] Each song is legendary and must-see. It's a little difficult to say everything here. However, the highlight of this work is not only such a show, but also the CM group that is sandwiched in between. The Pepsi commercial with the alternate lyrics version of "Bad" is amazing, but what surpasses it is the sense of the times in the regular commercial. First of all, the old main sponsor: Telegraph and Telephone Public Corporation is amazing. At that time, it had just been privatized and its stock had just been listed in 1987. Perhaps because of this, he is actively exposed, and various commercials appear in this work as well. What's more, it's a telecommunications business, so the times are turbulent. Selling faxes with "clear black backgrounds in fine mode" is just the beginning. She carries a huge mobile phone that is about three times the size of today's handsets and proclaims, ``My phone has left the house!'', and a 22-year-old forensics research woman appears in a landline commercial (!). . It reminds me of the traditional Japanese culture of letting your family know when your boyfriend calls you (there's not even a handset!). Even more impressive is the toll-free number. It is shocking that it was necessary to advertise the service content, which is now common knowledge among the people, in a TV commercial such as "If you find a phone number starting with 0120...", and the narration was also performed by the late great actress Kyoko Kishida. Mr. Miss. The words that were all the rage, ``When you see a cat playing with a horizontal bar, please remember that,'' are deeply moving. And the ultimate is the pager. The words ``new media, display pagers'' alone make me upset, but I'm also surprised that we have completely forgotten about that cryptographic culture. The display and content are carefully arranged to read ``555-1 (go straight to the Harajuku store)'' and ``18-30 [22] (at the usual cafe at 6:30 p.m.)'', but at the same time it feels nostalgic. When I was having this conversation with him, I started to feel like an alien. Of course, it's not just phone companies. Films from now-extinct cameras were widely advertised, and cassette tapes were sold as ``CD-compatible.'' In such a situation, the fried chicken commercial makes me come back to my senses. Perhaps delicious-looking chicken is timeless, and there is nothing out of the ordinary about it even when it is passed around today. If you think about it, it's obvious, but it's surprising how much the other commercials have a strong sense of the times. The story ends with a sailor-suited girl who enjoys machine guns muttering, "I love you" (which is sure to be super moe!). The show alone is a masterpiece pro shot in which the young and sharp Michael is dazzling, but the rich 80's culture bursts out at once with the addition of a group of commercials (which would normally be excluded). There is a slight tracking noise in the second half of the audio (the video is beautiful), but it is truly a cultural heritage worthy of permanent preservation. Whether it's the casual male customers or the female customers with shoulder pads, even the hiragana pronunciation of ``Maikeruuu!'' that leaks through the gaps in the sound board stimulates the lachrymal glands. The word ``Western music'' does not simply mean ``foreign music,'' but it also represents the individuality and way of life of those of us who love it. This is a piece of the era that expresses the fragrance of the era. Yokohama Stadium, Yokohama, Japan 27th September 1987 (108:48) 1. Intro 2. Wanna Be Startin' Something 3. Things I Do For You 4.
