While a recording Kinney, main press 2CD of shock was unpublished until this “TOKYO 1981 AFTERNOON SHOW”. As I mentioned in the main commentary, this “May 24, Nakano Sun Plaza” was twice daily performances of “evening of parts” and “Night of the department”. “Night of the Department” is FM broadcast by certain public broadcaster, has produced a myriad of air check board. This work is one in such, one that was reprinted from the best board of Kinney made LP “IRON MAIDEN (PMDU-1005)”. In other words, the main press 2CD is Kinney version of the “evening of parts”, this work is a translation that Kinney version of the “night of the department”.
Of course, this broadcast has a large Ketteiban of Langley label “LIVE KILLERS (out of print)”, the quality of this work is not short of it, also recorded is a shortened version of the one sheet of analog. However, vintage feeling full of sound is really warm and nostalgic ones. This sound is what, I variety of that era air sense of itself. Same title and band name, debut, monochromatic cover where you copied the jacket of “MAIDEN JAPAN”. If you flip it for the hand, typed in a bright red “MAIDEN JAPAN” too different song and it (the mapped twice to Remember Tomorrow only) are lined up ……. While I think that “do it that contains the live of this song” it was also sighed in price tag, the air of that era. To buy it with the intention jump from the stage Shimizu, has been flowing out and carefully put on the turntable, that sound ….
’30 Or so from that day-to-day. In the meantime, high-quality sound of the full broadcast CD appeared, such as Mastering the limit, also has been excavated to unpublished tape of this also Kinney recording. Although it is really a sense of poles apart, but are you trying to convey also high-quality sound board us of more than 30 years ago “era of the air”, and a change is not to be “the best music”. Only because achievement of the latest excavation of the main press 2CD is 2015, I would like you to touch back to the time of the heart. Recall that yearn such feelings. I put the thought, it is the reproduction of a vintage LP.
If you are “steel of virgin”, of “KILLERS”, when it was the analog you have still “MAIDEN JAPAN”, please listen while please big jacket views. 1 piece of magic to return the hands of the clock 34 years ago. By all means, along with the innovative main press 2CD, please enjoy the “1981 of smell”

キニー録音でありながら、これまで未発表だった衝撃の本編プレス2CD「TOKYO 1981 AFTERNOON SHOW」。その本編解説でも触れましたが、この「5月24日・中野サンプラザ」は“夕方の部”と“夜の部”の1日2公演でした。“夜の部”は、某公共放送局によってFM放送され、無数のエアチェック盤を生み出してきました。本作は、そんな中の1つで、キニー製LP「IRON MAIDEN(PMDU-1005)」の極上盤から復刻した1枚。つまり、本編プレス2CDはキニー版“夕方の部”、本作はキニー版“夜の部”というわけです。
もちろん、この放送はLangleyレーベルの大決定盤「LIVE KILLERS(廃盤)」があり、本作のクオリティはそれには及ばず、収録もアナログ1枚分の短縮版です。しかし、ヴィンテージ感覚溢れるサウンドは実に暖かくも懐かしいもの。このサウンドこそが、あの時代の空気感そのものなのです。バンド名・デビュー作と同じタイトル、「MAIDEN JAPAN」のジャケットをコピーした単色カバー。それを手にとって裏返すと、真っ赤な中にタイプされた「MAIDEN JAPAN」とはあまりにも違う曲目(ダブっているのはRemember Tomorrowだけ)が並ぶ……。「この曲のライヴが入ってるんだ」と思いながらも値札にタメ息をついていた、あの時代の空気。清水の舞台から飛び降りるつもりで買い、慎重にターンテーブルに乗せて流れ出してきた、あの音……。
あの日々から30年あまり。その間には、極限を極めるような高音質のフル放送CDが登場し、今回またキニー録音の未発表テープまでもが発掘されました。本当に隔世の感ではありますが、その高音質盤たちも伝えようとしているのは30年以上前の“時代の空気”、そして“最高の音楽”であることに変わりはない。本編プレス2CDが2015年の最新発掘の偉業だからこそ、当時の心に戻って触れていただきたい。あの焦がれるような感情を思い出していただきたい。その想いを込めた、ヴィンテージLPの復刻です。
もし、あなたが「鋼鉄の処女」の、「KILLERS」の、「MAIDEN JAPAN」のアナログをまだお持ちでしたら、どうぞ大きなジャケット眺めながら聴いてください。時計の針を34年前に戻す魔法の1枚。ぜひ、画期的な本編プレス2CDと共に、“1981年の匂い”をお楽しみください。
