GiGinJapan Artwork of Japanese CDs (mostly) Jeff Beck / A Day In New York / 2CDR / Non Label
Live at Jones Beach Theater, Wantagh, New York, USA 25th August 1999
Play sample :
From the US tour accompanying “Who Else” in 1999, New York on August 25, which appeared recently, recorded a high-quality audience recording take of the Jones Beach Theater performance. The Japan tour in the spring of 1999, which came to Japan after a long time, left a strong impact on Japanese fans, but in this performance you can hear a more evolved appearance. The intro of Psycho Sam is quite interesting. You can also listen to Rollin’And Tumblin’ and Rice Pudding / Going Down medleys across Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers during this time. The sound quality is recorded with a stable and powerful sound from beginning to end, and especially Jeff’s guitar is captured with a very on sound, so there is no doubt that fans will be very satisfied. Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers There is a light touch on the mic at the beginning and in the middle and end of the angel, but it’s a quiet sound so it’s not that serious. You can hear the audience talking in the distance, but since it is a level that is almost unnoticeable, you can enjoy the whole concert without stress.

Of the US tour that accompanies “Who Else”. Recorded the performance in New York on August 25, 1999 by audience recording. Despite Jeff’s mistakes on Psycho Sam, his subsequent play with Brush With The Blues is awesome. Since it is the second leg after the Japan tour, the performance is very tight, and the guitar play that you can hear in Blast From The East is probably because the band is cohesive. Rollin’And Tumblin’ is an instrument, and you can also listen to Jeff and Jennifer’s guitar interaction. Jeff’s guitar turns off at the beginning of You Never Know, but he may have cut the strings. Here you can hear Jennifer’s solo followed by Randy’s bass solo.
1999年「Who Else」に伴うUSツアーより、最近になって登場した8月25日のニューヨークはジョーンズ･ビーチ･シアター公演の高音質オーディエンス録音テイクを収録。久々の来日となった99年春のジャパンツアーでは日本のファンに強烈なインパクトを残してくれましたが、この公演ではより進化した姿を聴く事ができます。Psycho Samのイントロはなかなか面白いです。またこの時期はCause We’ve Ended As Loversを挟んでRollin’ And Tumblin’とRice Pudding/Going Downのメドレーを聴く事ができます。音質は終始、安定した迫力あるサウンドで収録されており、特にジェフのギターが非常にオンな音で捉えられているのでファンは大満足間違いありません。Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers冒頭やAngelの途中と最後でマイクに軽く触れるような音がありますが、小さい音なのでそれほど深刻ではありません。遠めに観客のお喋りも聴こえたりもしますが、殆ど気にならないレベルですのでストレスなく、コンサートの全貌を楽しむことができます。

「Who Else」に伴うUSツアーの。1999年8月25日のニューヨーク公演をオーディエンス録音で収録。Psycho Samでジェフのミスはあるものの、続くBrush With The Bluesでのプレイは最高だ。ジャパン・ツアーを経てのセカンドレグなので、演奏は非常にタイトにたっており、Blast From The Eastで聴けるようなギタープレイはバンドにまとまりがあってこそだろう。Rollin’ And Tumblin’はインストで、ジェフとジェニファーのギターの掛け合いも聴きどころ。You Never Knowの冒頭でジェフのギターがオフになるが、弦を切ったのかもしれない。ここではジェニファーのソロに続いて、ランディのベース・ソロが聴ける。
