Without their trademark beard, ZZ TOP stood out as a Southern rock band during the London Records era. A valuable live album that allows you to experience the scorching 70's on-site is now available. What is infused into this work is “January 9, 1975 Toronto Performance”. This is a super powerful audience recording. Normally, I would start with the schedule at the time...but this time I'll skip it. This is because there are two theories about the Toronto performance, depending on the data: ``1975'' and ``1976.'' However, both of these dates were related to "FANDANGO!", and the former was during the production period, while the latter took place eight months after its release. ). [A masterpiece recording with a powerful sound that surpasses the official one!] In any case, this work recorded at such a show is a masterpiece recording with a vivid and direct feeling. It is known around the world as "audience recording", but the closeness of the straight core with no distance and the fine detail that the chorus is neatly separated are sound board quality. However, there is also cheering from nearby guests between songs, so it is definitely an audience recording, but the essential performance sounds and vocalizations do not feel strange even if they are said to be broadcast sound sources. No, in fact, it would be more appropriate to call it "a radio broadcast with overdubbed live audience voices." What's more, it's super realistic and powerful. Although it is close to "FANDANGO! (live side)" in terms of zero distance, the powerful thrust at the core far exceeds the official masterpiece. The picking is so powerful that it feels like the strings are going to be torn off, and the vocals are spitting out of the speakers. Moreover, even though it is that powerful, it does not make a loud and loud sound, and it has a great sense of stability that does not shake at all. While it is full of the flavor of the 70's audience, it is also a famous recording that far exceeds that dimension. [The true awesomeness of ZZ TOP that cannot be told officially] The ultra-realistic and extremely direct sound depicts a youthful stage where the band's potential is erupting, just like the famous album "FANDANGO!". Since “Backdoor Medley” is not played, it cannot be said to be a “complete version of FANDANGO! (Live Side)”, but instead, the set that is enriched with famous songs from the LONDON record era is extremely hot. Let's check out the contents here. Tres Hombres (4 songs) ・Waitin' for the Bus／Jesus Just Left Chicago／Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers／La Grange Others (8 songs) ・First album: (Somebody Else Been) Shaking Your Tree／Brown Sugar・Rio・Grande Mad: Chevrolet/Francine Fandango! :Thunderbird・Others: Ride Away/Rattlesnake Shake/Catfish Blues/Jailhouse Rock...and so on. The set is truly delicious, centering around the famous ``TRES HOMBRES'' numbers that have been loved throughout their career, but also sprinkled with famous songs from their early days and a variety of covers. And the performance that spells out that set is amazing. After all, they were only 25 years old at the time. Even though it's blues or boogie, it doesn't have the slightest flavor to it, and it's a great performance filled with passion, blazing tension, and an idiot-like excess of physical strength. Some people may say that ``ZZ TOP is limited to the LONDON record era,'' but this is a live album that boils down that meaning and boils it down to a richness that makes you go crazy. ZZ TOP has always been a genuine live band throughout its long history. However, the truly intense atmosphere of that era was not preserved in the form of works. This work is a "sound witness" that testifies to the irony of history. This album is packed with such scorching rock that even many official studio masterpieces would be wiped out in one breath. Super powerful audience recording of “January 9, 1975 Toronto Performance”. It's a great recording with plenty of raw and direct feeling, and the closeness of the straight core with no distance and the fine details that neatly separate the chorus are soundboard-class. Rather, it would be more appropriate to describe it as a "radio broadcast with overdubbed live audience voices." There are plenty of famous songs from the early LONDON record era, and the 25-year-old's youthful performance is a blast. Some people may think that ``ZZ TOP is limited to the LONDON record era,'' but this is a live album that boils down that meaning and boils it down to a richness that makes you go crazy.
