One is the Milwaukee performances of April 8, have been recorded in the Natural another in both stereo sound board the St. Louis performances of April 14. The famous show so sound that was broadcast at that time both performances FM radio, but the past is also that it has been released in the boot leg CD is also the old story already more than 10 years, here again by performing a re-validation of the Kinks it is really useful items are also in order to put.

ライブアルバム「The Road」の公式リリースを翌月に控え行われた1988年USツアーより2公演の極上ステレオ・ライン録音をカップリングした高音質盤。ディスク1には4月8日のミルウォーキー公演を、ディスク2には4月14日のセント・ルイス公演を超高音質ステレオ・サウンドボード録音で収録しています。ミルウォーキー公演は、既発に比べるとより自然な高音質で収録されており、右側のキャリキャリしたノイズが無いほか、豊かな低音が魅力の一枚です。セント・ルイス公演はラジオショウディスクから直に収録されており、71分に渡って最高のサウンドで楽しめます。既発未収のLolaが収録されているほか、既発はモノラルでしたが、本盤はステレオ・セパレートしています。(ただし、All Day And All Of The Night 2:01にCelluloid Heroes 2:20秒台とLolaの0:18-0:30に音の劣化ポイントがありますが、これは元のラジオマスターに起因するもので、この部分が正常なヴァージョンは存在しません。)1988年ツアー音源は限られており、それらを最良のクォリティで収録した本盤は間違いなくファン必携です。ミルウォーキー公演では、1987年シカゴ公演では演奏されていないApe Man, Sleepwalker, Too Much On My Mind, A Well Respected Man、更には「次のニューライヴアルバムのタイトルトラックだよ」というMCで演奏されるThe Roadが聴け、更に長く収録されているセント・ルイス公演ではParanoia The Destroyer、It(She Wants It) が聴けたりと、両盤ともに、聴きごたえ満点の内容になっています。貴重な88年ツアー音源を代表する超高音質盤をこの機会にお楽しみください。

★beatleg誌 vol.104(2009年3月号)のレビュー要約です。ご参考まで。

オフィシャルでは集大成のボックスセットがリリースされたことによりこれまでブートレッグでしか聴けなかった未発表曲やレアテイクなどが数多く普通に聴けるようになった今、本作に収録されているような優良ライブ音源をリリースしてもらいたいと願うものだが、本盤は1988年4月のアメリカツアーからふたつの優良サウンドボードライブ音源を収録したナイスなアイテム。ひとつは4月8日のミルウォーキー公演を、もうひとつは4月14日のセントルイス公演をどちらもステレオサウンドボードでナチュラルに収録している。両公演とも当時FMラジオで放送された音源なので有名なショウで、過去にブートレッグCDでリリースされたこともあるが既に10年以上昔の話でもあり、ここでまたキンクスの再検証を行っておくためにも実に有用なアイテムとなる。以前のアイテムに比べると実に高音質サウンドに仕上がっているのも特徴的だが、この時期のキンクスのライブの充実度を改めて実感するライブの内容でもあり、マニアから初心者までオススメの、最後の再結成を行ってワールドツアーをしてもらいたいキンクスを今また楽しむには丁度良いタイトル。
