The extremely valuable TV appearance footage from SCORPIONS' first visit to Japan in April 1978 will be released as a must-see and must-have edition for fans using the top generation master! Although it is short in time, it is of excellent quality that would not look out of place even if it was officially used in history videos etc. If you're a fan, this is definitely one you can't miss! In the 1970s, SCORPIONS gained popularity due to the spectacular guitar playing of Jimi Hendrix-oriented Jimi Jon Roth and unique lyricism that swirled with passion, and received high praise in Europe and Japan. Ta. The peak of this line was ``TAKEN BY FORCE'' released in 1978. However, Uri, who is the core of the band, announced his withdrawal from the band after this work. The band was at a turning point. The band's first Japan tour was realized when they announced "TAKEN BY FORCE." Uri accepted the band's request to "participate in the Japan tour," and in April 1978, Uri's first and last Japan tour was held. In addition to the official work "TOKYO TAPES", there are many audience recordings of this visit to Japan, which are collector's items, and convey the dramatic performance of the young SCORPIONS to this day. However, in contrast to the sound source, there were few video titles for SCORPIONS of this era, and the reality was that there was almost no way to know the band when Uri was in it by ``moving form''. This work is a film that fulfills the wish (albeit short) of those enthusiasts who want to see SCORPIONS from the Uri era on video! The music program the band appeared on during their first visit to Japan has been digitized using the finest video master. Enjoy valuable videos in excellent quality! This music program is the same program as GILLAN's "TOKYO 1978". The female host who appears is also very attractive. The first thing that will be featured is "Steamrock Fever". Although it is a mime performance, you can see the action that makes you imagine an energetic and powerful band live (Uri is not participating here for some reason). Next up was a famous band from the 1970s in Japan. This is a live performance of a famous song that everyone (especially if you are a professional wrestling enthusiast) has heard at least once. Their play is very technical. I think the members of SCORPIONS were also surprised by the high-level performance. Once these two sets of songs are finished, we move on to an interview with SCORPIONS, including Uri, and the Japanese band (the female host is doing her best to ask questions and interpret). The scene where the Japanese band and SCORPIONS greet each other is precious! In addition, in this interview, Uri is responding on behalf of the SCORPIONS side. In the second half, SCORPIONS performed again. This time, five people including Uri will listen to "I've Got To Be Free". This is also a mime, but it is very rare to see this song performed on TV! This is a must-see for fans. After the program outro, several TV commercials from that time are also included. (Must see Kazuo Zaitsu's ``Space Dust'' and the commercial for ``Rockza'' at the time) Veteran enthusiasts who were watching this program at the time will not be able to resist this part. Although there are some visual disturbances in some scenes in this work, the image and sound quality are generally at a high level, and the quality and rarity of the material is outstanding, allowing you to visually enjoy SCORPIONS when Uri was in the band. This is a special release that SCORPIONS fans can't miss! Broadcasted in 1978 PRO-SHOT 1. Steamrock Fever 2. Unknown Band 3. Interview 4. I've Got To Be Free 5. Outro. 6.
