In 1989 GUNS N ‘ROSES who was spirited up as a new monster. The ultimate video that contained the last night they acted as an opening act is a gift release decision.
Even Guns was a debut era who served as the undercard of various bands. THE CULT, MOTLEY CRUE, Alice Cooper, IRON MAIDEN, AEROSMITH …… However, promoted to headliner with the unprecedented success of “APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION”. After that, it reigns in the scene as a monster of rock. Such was the opening in the end in the fall of 1989. It was a Los Angeles 4 show of THE ROLLING STONES that was revived with “STEEL WHEELS TOUR”. What is included in this work is the final night “October 22, 1989: LA Coliseum Performance”.
This picture has been known for a long time, but this work is not a copy of it. It is a thing that overseas mania carefully finished using Lawune Master who was discovered recently. It is an excellent piece that conveys historic nights with the highest quality ever. In fact, the beauty of this work is exquisite. The angle taken from the stand on the left side of the stage is the same as in the previous episode, but freshness with little noise or aged deterioration is another thing. Although the unnaturalness of digital processing is entirely vivid coloring, it seems that the sight at that time is exactly the same.
Contrary to such a scene, it is speech to show the power of the latest digital in various ways. Three kinds of sounds can be switched to this work, and it is possible to select the original sound that keeps recording, the sound of the latest mastering, and the sound of 5.1 ch surround sound. Of course, it is not an impressive impression but it is a beauty that makes use of the sound of the original sound. It’s a splendid finish with a gleaming sense of the maniac who created it.
The show drawn with that quality is wonderful. Although I have finished “APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION WORLD TOUR” including the first visit to Japan by the previous year, the lineup is “that 5 people”. I keep wearing the band potential which turned the world up, and I am wearing confidence and big taste that actually went around the world. Moreover, there is no feeling of sinking only on special schedule of only LA 4 performance which is not in the world tour, full power running can not be interrupted only for the short holding time due to the premise. If you add further, support lord resurrected living legend Stones. Axel screams as “Knockin ‘Heaven’s Door” “Come! Become hot for the greatest rock and roll band in the world, THE ROLLING STONES !!”, but the spirit of Respect, symbolized by that word, is full I will be touched. It is exactly a great performance that all the conditions are all right and it has become a masterpiece.
Even just that, it is a chest but this interesting preference only for this work is “Move To The City”. SUICIDE HORNS SECTION that featured Dub’s sibling matte appeared here. You can see a gorgeous ensemble with a horn that reminds me of “USE YOUR ILLUSION TOUR” later. What is more unique than the image is “Rocket Queen”. On the way, Axel took the base from Duff and rushed into a slash and a jam. Meanwhile, Duff who was robbed of the base (?) Begins to knock out the Step Kit’s drum kit with Concon. Axel, who was walking through the stage while attracting the base for a while, thought that he returned the base to Duff, then he began to hit the drum instead of Duff … …. I do not know if it was an appointment for the LA 4 show or was freaky only on this day, but this scene is absolutely unknown in the live album that only sounds. It is interesting because it is a field experience on video.

A treasure picture in which the show of “that 5 people” who changed the history can be seen with exceptional quality. Even just that, it is full of stomach, but it is a masterpiece plenty filled with plenty of opportunities, special guests, even more funny playing to lose to the advanced. Stones’ “NO FILTER TOUR” boils the world, and three people of Axel / Slash / Duff restarted “NOT IN THIS LIFETIME … TOUR”, it is one more deeply emotional one. Please, please fully enjoy.

新たなる怪物として気を吐いていた1989年のGUNS N’ ROSES。彼らがオープニング・アクトを務めた最後の夜を収めた極上映像がギフト・リリース決定です。
ガンズと言えどもデビュー時代はさまざまなバンドの前座を務めていました。THE CULT、MOTLEY CRUE、アリス・クーパー、IRON MAIDEN、AEROSMITH……。しかし、『APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION』の空前の成功と共にヘッドライナーに昇格。以降、ロックの怪物としてシーンに君臨していくのです。そんな彼らが最後にオープニングを務めたのは1989年秋のこと。“STEEL WHEELS TOUR”で復活したTHE ROLLING STONESのロサンゼルス4公演でした。本作に収められているのは、その最終夜「1989年10月22日:LAコロシアム公演」です。
この映像は古くから知られていましたが、本作はそのコピーではありません。最近になって発掘されたロウジェネ・マスターを使用し、海外マニアが丁寧に仕上げたもの。歴史的な夜を過去最高峰クオリティで伝えてくれる逸品なのです。実際、本作の美しさは絶品。ステージ左側のスタンド席から撮影されたアングルは既発と同じですが、ノイズや経年劣化のほとんどない鮮度はまるで別物。デジタル加工の不自然さがまるでないのに鮮やかな発色は、まさしく当時の光景がそっくり甦るようです。
そんな光景とは逆に、最新デジタルの威力をまざまざと見せつけるのが音声。本作には3種の音声が切り替えられるようになっており、録音しっぱなしのオリジナル音声、最新マスタリングによる音声、さらに5.1chサラウンド化された音声が選択できる。もちろん、無闇やたらな迫力押しではなく、原音の鳴りを活かした美しさ。制作したマニアのセンスがギラリと光る見事な仕上がりなのです。
そのクオリティで描かれるショウこそが素晴らしい。前年までに初来日を含む“APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION WORLD TOUR”を終えているものの、ラインナップは“あの5人”。世界をひっくり返したバンド・ポテンシャルはそのままに、実際に世界中を巡った自信と大物感を身にまとっている。しかも、ワールドツアー中ではないLA4公演だけの特別日程だけに流し感ゼロですし、前座ゆえの短い持ち時間だけに全力疾走が途切れない。さらに加えるなら、サポート主が復活を遂げた生ける伝説ストーンズ。アクセルは「Knockin ‘Heaven’s Door」で「カモン! 世界一偉大なロックンロールバンドのために熱くなろうぜ、THE ROLLING STONES!!」と叫びますが、その言葉に象徴されるリスペクトの気迫が全編でブチかまされる。まさに、すべての条件が見事に揃い、名演になるべくしてなった大熱演なのです。
それだけでも胸アツですが、本作だけの面白い趣向が「Move To The City」。ここではダブの兄弟マットをフィーチュアしたSUICIDE HORNS SECTIONが登場。後の“USE YOUR ILLUSION TOUR”を思い起こさせるようなホーン入りのゴージャスなアンサンブルが観られる。さらに映像ならではなのが「Rocket Queen」。途中でアクセルがダフからベースを奪ってスラッシュとジャムに突入。その間、ベースを奪われた(?)ダフは所在なげにスティーヴンのドラム・キットをコンコンと叩き始めるのです。しばらくベースを惹きながらステージを練り歩いていたアクセルは、ダフにベースを返したと思ったら今度はダフの代わりにドラムを叩き始める……。LA4公演のお約束だったのか、この日だけの気紛れだったのかは分かりませんが、このシーンは音声だけのライヴアルバムでは決して分からない。映像の現場体験だからこそ面白さです。

歴史を変えた“あの5人”のショウが極上クオリティで観られるお宝映像。それだけでもお腹いっぱいですが、さらに先達に負けまいとする気迫、特別ゲスト、さらには微笑ましい遊びまでもがたっぷりとまぶされた傑作です。ストーンズの“NO FILTER TOUR”が世界を沸かし、アクセル/スラッシュ/ダフの3人が“NOT IN THIS LIFETIME… TOUR”を再開させた2018年だからこそ、一層感慨深い1枚。どうぞ、存分にご堪能ください。
