First, as a super feature of this box set, two monitor mix sound board masters, which will be the world’s first appearance of the Maryland performance on May 26, 1977, are recorded! It is a sound image that is clearly different from the conventional sound board sound source! You can also expect this. Let’s go to the introduction of the Chicago performance.

The third day of the 1977 US tour in Chicago, which boasts the third largest population in the United States after New York and Los Angeles! Four days of performances at Chicago Stadium on April 6th, 7th, 9th and 10th are recorded with audience recordings! (This Chicago was the first consecutive performance in 1977) It was released from EVSD in the past, but there were few numbers, and it was overwhelmingly popular overseas, so I was glad that it was made into a rare item without being able to see it. Release. It has been upgraded with fewer cuts than the previous one. The binding is also a gorgeous gloss coating box with a belt every time! 9 CDs are stored in three paper jackets. This time is also a must-have item! Limited specification. There are two types of box designs, so please choose the one you like!

On April 6th, firecrackers exploded even before the members appeared on the first day, and the venue was in a dangerous situation! It may be a natural event because 30 young people have been arrested since the ticket sale. The four of them are in good condition, especially Plant’s condition is good, and the MC between songs is clear, and I’m in a good mood to sing Elvis Presley’s “BURNING LOVE”. Jimmy’s solo of “Nobody’s Fault But Mine” and “Since I’ve Been Loving You” on this day is the best. The last is “Trampled Underfoot”, but Bonzo sometimes puts the beat of “Gallows Pole” The place is a must-listen.

On April 7, unfortunately, it seems that all songs could not be recorded on this day. The band’s condition was also good, so it’s left, but it can’t be helped. If you listen to the opening song “The Song Remains the Same”, you’ll understand! It’s got Paige’s amazing guitar stuffed in there with Bonzo’s insane drums. Bad luck continued, as local hockey team the Chicago Blackhawks had to vacate the venue early for a playoff game, so “In My Time Of Dying” and “Trampled Underfoot” were released that day. I lost the set. It seems that Showco, who is in charge of the sound system, worked hard to set up the venue on Saturday.

On April 8th, Showco and others re-installed the disassembled sound system and went to the live, but Jimmy’s physical condition ended in the middle of the live. Is Chicago cursed? After “SICK AGAIN”, Jimmy starts playing “Since I’ve Been Loving You”. The band members couldn’t keep up with what they thought was “Nobody’s Fault But Mine” and had to redo “Nobody’s Fault But Mine”. What happened? Jimmy? Yes, Jimmy had FOOD POISONING, so-called food poisoning. After a lengthy discussion backstage at “Ten Years Gone”, manager Richard Cole announced that the show had been cancelled. Unfortunately, the transfer show did not materialize.

On April 9th, Jimmy was back in good spirits, as if the previous day’s ill health had passed. Moreover, on the fourth and final day, he appeared in the costume of the Nazi SS Stormtrooper! Ladies and gentlemen, that famous photo is from this day. It was influenced by THE NIGHT PORTER “Ai no Arashi” that Richard Cole and I watched many times night after night. I want you to listen to the sound source of this day while imagining the greatness of the stormtrooper that can only be described as “cool!”. There was a change in some setlists, “Trampled Underfoot”, which was located at the end, was moved before “White Summer”. And “Since I’ve Been Loving You” on this day is dedicated to Willie Dixon and his friends, and the hot performance is just like the intense version of “Tea For One”. The last of the four Chicago performances is “Rock and Roll”! Yes, I guess they wanted to end the final day with “Rock and Roll”. That’s why they changed the location of “Trampled Underfoot”. The Chicago performance, which was a series of troubles, was canceled with a wonderful play on the final day!

最初にこのボックスセットの超目玉として1977年5月26日のメリーランド公演の世界初登場となるモニターミックス・サウンドボード・マスターが2曲収録されています！従来のサウンドボード音源とは明らかに違う音像です！これはまた期待できますね。それではシカゴ公演の紹介へといきましょう。

ニューヨーク、ロサンゼルスに次ぐ全米第三位の人口を誇る大都市シカゴでの1977年ＵＳツアー三日目！4月6、7、9、10日のシカゴ・スタジアム四日間公演をオーディエンス録音で収録！（1977年において連続公演はこのシカゴが初である）過去にEVSDからリリースされていましたが数も少なく、海外での圧倒的人気もあり中々お目にかかることもなくレア・アイテム化していましたので嬉しいリリースです。前回のものよりもカットが少なくなっておりグレードアップしております。装丁も毎度の豪華グロス・コーティングボックスに帯付き仕様！紙ジャケット三つに9CDが収納されています。今回もマストなアイテムとなっております！限定仕様。ボックスのデザインは2種類用意されていますのでお好きな方をお選びください！

4月6日、初日のメンバー登場前から爆竹が炸裂し盛り上がりすぎる会場はまさに危険状態！チケットの発売から若者が30人逮捕されているので当然の出来事かもしれない。四人の調子も良く、特にプラントの調子が好調で曲間のＭＣも冴えており、エルビス・プレスリーの”BURNING LOVE”の唄ってみたりと上機嫌です。この日の””Nobody’s Fault But Mine”と”Since I’ve Been Loving You”のジミーのソロは最高ですよ。ラストは”Trampled Underfoot”ですがボンゾが “Gallows Pole”のビートをたまに入れてくるところは必聴です。

4月7日、不運にもこの日は全曲録音することができなかった模様。バンドの調子もよかっただけに残ですがしようがありません。それはオープニングの”The Song Remains the Same”を聴いてもらえれば分かるでしょう！ボンゾの狂気のドラムにペイジの素晴らしいギターがそこに詰まっています。不運は続きます、地元のホッケー・チームのシカゴ・ブラックホークスのプレイオフ・ゲームのために早めに会場を明け渡さないとダメだったので、”In My Time Of Dying”と”Trampled Underfoot”はこの日セット落ちしたのです。サウンド・システム担当のShowcoさんたちはバラシと土曜日の会場設営を頑張った模様です。

4月8日、Showcoさん達は一旦バラしたサウンドシステムを再設営しライヴに臨んだのですが、なんとジミーの体調不良により途中でライヴが終わってしまうのです。シカゴは呪われているのだろうか？”SICK AGAIN”の次になんとジミーは”Since I’ve Been Loving You”をプレイし始めるのである。バンドメンバーは”Nobody’s Fault But Mine”だと思っていたのでついていくことができず、”Nobody’s Fault But Mine”をやり直すことになるのであった。どうしたんだ？ジミー？そうですジミーはFOOD POISONINGいわゆる食中毒にかかっていたんです。”Ten Years Gone”のバックステージで長い時間話し合いが続きマネージャーのリチャード・コールからのアナウンスがありショウの中止が伝えれらた。残念ながら振り替えのショウも実現しなかった。

4月9日、前日の具合の悪さも吹っ切れたようにジミーは元気に復活です。しかもナチス親衛隊ストーム・トルーパーの衣装で登場した四日目最終日！みなさん、あの有名な写真はこの日なんですよ。リチャード・コールと夜な夜な何回も観ていたというTHE NIGHT PORTER「愛の嵐」から影響されてのこと。「かっこいい！」としか形容できないストームトルーパーの御大を想像しながらこの日の音源を聴いて欲しい。一部セットリストに変更がありました、ラストに位置していた”Trampled Underfoot”が”White Summer”の前に移動しています。そしてこの日の”Since I’ve Been Loving You”はウィリー・ディクソンと彼の友達に捧げられ、熱い演奏はまさに”Tea For One”の激しいバージョンのようになっています。シカゴ四公演のラストは”Rock and Roll”！そうだ、最終日の最後は”Rock and Roll”で閉じたかったのでしょうね。だから”Trampled Underfoot”の場所を変えたんでしょうね。トラブル続きだったシカゴ公演も最終日の素晴らしいプレイで帳消しとなりました！
