The historical record sound source’s debut from Masterport label in the early 2000s, newly remastered from the master cassette. Longer, and with excellent sound quality, you can enjoy this historic concert. 8 performance from the schedule also organized the Budokan performances I think I can feel the enthusiasm of the time, but was recorded on the disk 1 & 2, the value of Japan’s first day performance tape recording should be the memorial, Japan of Dylan There is unmatched for the fans. The first three days only the played blues cover Lonesome Bedroom Blues in the opening in the Budokan, for the original “Planet Waves” arrange the version that was far too of, even the enthusiastic audience that was rushed on the first day indeed, something There is About you that had silenced not know what if the song (played on this day only), reggae version played in are Do not Think Twice, which gave a shock to the fans, It’s All Right, it is unveiled at the end such as unusual Tomorrow is a Long Time was, exaggeration is not to say that all of the listening stations. Is a high-quality documents that tension with fresh hot air comes through the first day of performances avid Dylan fan across the country think that you might have gathered. Behalf of high-quality, complete recording of the February 23 performance of Budokan third day in the disk 3 & 4. Familiar installation is followed by A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall of, will be showing off the Lonesome Bedroom Blues to become the last in Tokyo. The day I Do not Believe You are incorporated into the set from, reverse three days If You See Her, which is showcased in a continuous, Say Hello is this day was the last. When compared to the first day, with the feeling that the band sound was also somewhat offered at a great, strong performance pretend you stand out of the lock color. In addition, it to is the Love Minus Zero / No Limit, which was singing at a guitar or sing in the hands of the guitar, the change is also seen from this day. The sound quality is both performances, non-equalized sense, it has been recorded in a natural and stable good sound was, and finished in an excellent 4-Pack. To everyone of the collector is an excellent take that I would like you to come on hand.

1978年初来日公演より、ツアー初日2月20日と3日目の2月23日公演を高音質オーディエンス録音でそれぞれ完全収録した4枚組がギフトタイトルで登場です。2000年代初頭にMasterportレーベルから初登場した歴史的記録音源を、マスターカセットより新たにリマスター。より長く、そして優れた音質で、この歴史的コンサートを楽しむことができます。8公演も組まれた武道館公演の日程からも当時の熱狂ぶりを感じることができると思いますが、ディスク１＆２に収録された、その記念すべき日本初日公演テープ録音の価値は、日本のディラン･ファンにとって比類なきものがあります。武道館では最初の3日間のみ演奏されたブルース・カバーLonesome Bedroom Bluesをオープニングに、オリジナルの「Planet Waves」のヴァージョンとはあまりにもかけ離れたアレンジのため、さすがに初日に駆けつけた熱心なオーディエンスでさえ、何の曲かわからず静まり返ってしまったというSomething There Is About You（この日のみの演奏）、レゲエ･ヴァージョンで演奏されファンにショックを与えたDon’t Think Twice, It’s All Right、終盤で披露された珍しいTomorrow Is A Long Timeなど、全てが聴き所と言っても過言ではありません。全国の熱心なディラン･ファンが集結したと思われる初日公演の緊張感と生々しい熱気が伝わってくる高品質なドキュメントです。代わってディスク３＆４には武道館3日目の2月23日公演を高音質･完全収録。お馴染みのインストのA Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fallに続いては、東京では最後となるLonesome Bedroom Bluesが披露されます。この日からI Don’t Believe Youがセットに組み込まれ、逆に3日連続で披露されたIf You See Her, Say Helloはこの日が最後となりました。初日に比べれると、バンドサウンドも幾分こなれた感じで、ロック色の強い演奏振りが目立ちます。また、それまでは、ギターを置いて歌っていたLove Minus Zero/No Limitをギターを手にして歌う等、変化が見られたのもこの日からです。音質は両公演とも、イコライズ感のない、自然で安定した良好なサウンドで収録されており、優秀な4枚組に仕上がっています。コレクターの皆様にはぜひ手元に置いて頂きたい優れたテイクです。
