In 1983, ZZ TOP made an appearance on MONSTERS OF ROCK due to the astronomical success of "ELIMINATOR" and also achieved the biggest UK tour of their career. The original recording that allows you to experience the scene at its finest will be preserved forever! What is engraved in this work is “London performance on November 27, 1983”. This is an ultra-superb audience recording of a vacuum-packed night at the traditional venue "Hammersmith Odeon". The essence of this work is that you can fully experience the heyday of a once-in-a-lifetime era with transcendental sound. After all, speaking of their UK performances, 1985, when they played a big role in MONSTERS OF ROCK, is symbolic, but 1983 is the year with the highest number of performances. In order to understand the situation, let's first look at the schedule at the time. 1983・January 1st-9th: North America #1 (6 performances)《``ELIMINATOR'' released on March 23rd》・May 6th-August 13th: North America #2 (61 performances)・August 18th Sunday + 20th: UK #1 (2 performances) / September 1st - October 9th: North America #3 (26 performances) / October 16th: Marquee performance ← * "MARQUEE 1983 MASTER" / October 17th - November 16: Europe (21 performances) November 19-30: UK #2 (9 performances) ←★Here★ January 12-February 12, 1984: North America #4 (23 performances) This is ZZ TOP in 1983/1984, when they dominated the scene with "ELIMINATOR". In the UK, a total of 12 performances of "UK #1/Marquee/UK #2" were held. They have traveled to England 20 times to date, but the average number of performances is only 2.3. The only time we had double-digit performances in the UK in one year was in 1983. Among these, the Hammersmith performance of this work is "UK #2", which boasts the highest number of performances in history. This was the 7th concert. This vacuum-packed album is the pinnacle of British popularity, and the sound is top-notch. The original master was given to me by the person who recorded it, and this person is an important figure in the UK who knows no collectors. If you have been paying attention to this article, you may remember "MARQUEE 1983 MASTER", but he is the recording artist who worked on that famous record. In fact, the sound has no sense of distance and the core is right in front of you, and the details are super vivid. ``MARQUEE 1983 MASTER'' had a close-knit feel because it was a small, narrow club, but Hammersmith Odeon had a capacity of 3,500 people. Despite this, it has a tight feel that approaches the marquee. Moreover, it's beautiful. As I said, it's super tight, but when I listen to it with headphones, I can even hear the slight sound of the hall. This gives an indescribable luster to the core, and gives dynamism to the simple ensemble of the three. Although the quality is comparable to that of an FM broadcast sound board, the beauty and freshness of the natural sound is due to the one-shot recording audience. It is a super famous recording that has more elegance than a sound board. What is depicted with such a dignified sound is a full show that will make you feel the British popularity at its peak. The aforementioned “MARQUEE 1983 MASTER” was a warm-up gig for a full-fledged European tour, but the set changed for this work after about a month of touring. Let's compare and organize them here. LONDON record era (8 songs) - Tres Hombres: Waitin' for the Bus/Jesus Just Left Chicago/La Grange/Fandango! Heard It on the m Bad, I'm Nationwide (★) / Manic Mechanic (★) / Cheap Sunglasses (★) El Loco: Ten Foot Pole (★) / Pearl Necklace / Party on the Patio / Tube Snake Boogie Eliminator: Got Me Under Pressure/I Got the Six/Gimme All Your Lovin' (★)/Sharp Dressed Man/TV Dinners (★) *Note: Songs marked with a "★" were not heard on "MARQUEE 1983 Master (Shades 1276)." ...and it looks like this. “I Got the Six” and “TV Dinners”, which were only played in the 1980s, also pop out, but what is even more delicious is the momentum of the show itself. It started off well with "Got Me Under Pressure" and then continued with new songs like "I Got the Six" and "Gimme All Your Lovin'" - a great start! The sharpness of the beat and the tension of the shout are both in top condition, making it sound heavy. And the mood in London is to welcome it. If you think about it, the previous year, in 1982, it was STATUS QUO who served as the big bird for MONSTERS OF ROCK, and the following year, in 1984, it was AC/DC. It's no wonder that ZZ TOP, one of the three great boogie bands of the 80's, is so popular. In the end, "ELIMINATOR" became a monster hit with a Diamond Disc in the US and 4x Platinum Discs in the UK, and the lively boogie that makes you feel like you are enjoying a once-in-a-lifetime climax with your entire body is so intense. . "Why didn't they leave an official live album during their heyday?"...This is probably what every ZZ TOP fan is thinking. That dream still doesn't seem to come true, but from now on, this work will heal that thirst. This work is a decision board that stands on such a dimension. Superb audience recording of "November 27, 1983 Hammersmith Odeon Performance". This is an original master given to me by the person who recorded it, and the core is right in front of me, with no sense of distance, and the details are super vivid. The slight sound of the hall gives an indescribable luster to the core, and the simple ensemble of the three members even has dynamism. In terms of quality, although it is FM broadcast grade, it is a super famous recording that is better than a sound board with the beauty of natural sound and the elegance of one-shot recording. "Why didn't they leave an official live version in their heyday?"...This is a historical definitive version that will heal your thirst. Uses a British taper recording master who is familiar with Clapton's authority. Amazingly high sound quality.
