The impact of "DEFINITIVE PHILADELPHIA 1975" is back! The legendary recording of 1975 has once again been newly excavated as an upgrade master. This work is engraved with the "November 14, 1975 Hempstead performance". It is a legendary audience recording that tells the whole story. Both this work and "DEFINITIVE PHILADELPHIA 1975" are traditional recording upgrade masters, and were excavated at the same time by the same route. They are truly sister masterpieces. If you have experienced "DEFINITIVE PHILADELPHIA 1975", you may already have made up your mind, but for those who have not, let me explain from the beginning. First of all, the importance of "1975". 1975: April 7th: Richie leaves DEEP PURPLE; August 4th: "Silver Mountain Champion" released; September: Lineup confirmed; November 10th-29th: North America #1 (12 shows); ★Here★1976: February: "Rainbow Flying Champion" produced; May 15th release; June 11th-August 7th: North America #2 (32 shows); August 31st-October 18th: Europe (30 shows); November 4th-22nd: Australia (11 shows); December 2nd-16th: First visit to Japan (10 shows); February 1977: Jimmy Bain fired; This is RAINBOW in 1975/1976. "North America #1" was RAINBOW's debut tour, and this mini-tour of 12 shows was the only one that was realized before "Rainbow Flying Champion" was produced. During this period, the opening of the show with "Over the Rainbow" had not yet been established, and "Kill the King" had not yet been born. The show opened with "Do You Close Your Eyes", the rare "Self Portrait" was played, and "Stargazer" and "A Light In The Black" were early versions in the unfinished stage... a completely different show from other periods was being held. Because it was such a valuable period, our shop has archived as many masterpieces as possible. Let's focus on the dates and organize our collection. Details of "North America #1" ・November 10: Montreal performance *November 12: "DEFINITIVE HEAVY PORTRAIT (New York)" ・November 13: Waterbury performance *November 14: Hempstead performance ←★Here★ *November 15: "DEFINITIVE PHILADELPHIA 1975" ・November 16: Akron performance *November 17: "DARK & LIGHT (DISC 1: Pittsburgh)" *November 18: "FLASHES OF LIGHTNING (Detroit)" ・November 22-29 (4 performances) ... and five records remain. Among them, the Hempstead performance of this work is the fourth performance since the new band started. It was the concert on the day before the shocking album "DEFINITIVE PHILADELPHIA 1975" the other day. As mentioned above, this work is the highest peak update of the famous recording that has conveyed this show. The best so far has been our "THE 4TH GIG", but this work is clearly a young gene master, and the sound has been improved by several ranks. It was originally a recording with good high-pitched sound, but this time the sharpness has improved significantly. In addition, the reproduction of the mid-range has also increased, and the dense density is so dense that it even feels heavy. On the other hand, the bass cracking that was characteristic of the conventional board has not changed. This is not a dubbing mark, but a characteristic of the recording itself. No matter how young Gene becomes, it cannot change. Therefore, this work is reduced by unique mastering. While taking great care not to affect the sound of the young Gene's performance, it maximizes the ease of listening. Such a newly excavated sound depicts a full show where the initial impulse explodes. Not only the extremely rare set mentioned above, but also the spontaneous performance itself is fresh. Particularly intense are the two consecutive "Stargazer" and "A Light In The Black". The former is an unfinished version with temporary lyrics, and the latter is an initial arrangement that lasts for 11 minutes. Moreover, it is not just a process of development. While the details are not yet fully worked out, the energy of the performance is so great that it fills the air, and the ideas of phrases that come to mind are packed in one after another. The heat is wonderful because it is in the kneading stage. The "Rainbow Style" was already completed by "North America #2", when the tour resumed, and it was carried through until Ronnie left the band. "North America #1" in 1975 was before the style and standard form were solidified, and this is a live album where you can experience the full show on site. The highest peak update master of such a historically important work. (Remaster Memo) ★ Several ranks higher than the previous release. This is true. In particular, the high-pitched sound is different, but the bass is also emphasized and distorted, making it difficult to hear, so that part has been reduced. Legendary audience recording of "Hempstead Performance on November 14, 1975". A new master excavated from the same route as the shocking work "DEFINITIVE PHILADELPHIA 1975", the sound has also been improved by several ranks. The high notes remain clear, but the sharpness has been improved dramatically. The cracked bass is a characteristic of the recording itself, but it has been reduced by the unique mastering. It maximizes the ease of listening. This is a new masterpiece that conveys the extremely rare full show of the band's fourth performance, including the early arrangements of "Stargazer" and "A Light In The Black."
