Live at the LA Forum, Inglewood, California (1st Show)
From Mike Millard Master Tape + Bonus Material

First appearance sound source, a famous recording (12th row recording in the middle of the floor) that captured the first day of the 1989 LA Forum with super-highest sound quality by the legendary worker Mike the Mike (Mike Millard), the sound is too good !!
★ The only drawback written on the liner is that Live And Let Die is recorded as a bonus track from the mania’s treasured same-day recording cassette against the meter swing of the explosion sound of Live And Let Die. In addition, the opening film and Figure Of Eight soundtrack are also included from the video of the CNN interview team.
★ Panfu jacket that follows the jacket design of BACK IN THE USA, which is said to have been bitten by Vicky’s Vinyl on the same day. I can’t respect my work)
★ Limited 100 sets, 2 press boards

On the first day of US LEG of the world tour that was held for two years from 1989, the LA Forum 11/23 performance was released with the first appearance mirrored sound source. For this day, a fan club from Japan also recruited a travel group and took off. This is the US tour since Wings Over America in 1976, and the tickets have been completely sold out, two additional performances have been decided, and five performances have been held in LA. It is said that Andrea (Vicky’s Vinyl) was involved in the production of BACK IN THE USA, a masterpiece of analog collector’s LP that contained the first day (and the first day of US LEG), but at that time it was mirrored. It has been said that it may have been recorded by the hand of.

However, I was surprised that this sound source was delivered last month just before Paul’s first GOT BACK tour in 3 years started. It was another sound source recorded on the same day with super-highest sound quality that surpassed BACK IN THE USA.

As in the legend, I wonder if the microphone is attached to the hat and the sound of the speaker hung on the ceiling is directly picked up, the output in the recording in the perfect position of floor B. Row 12 (12th row in the middle of the arena) Needless to say, it is the strongest, so we decided to stick to providing it on the press board.

As a special bonus track, Live And Let Die’s explosion-sounding meter-shaking problem from the mania’s treasured same-day recording cassette was the only drawback (although I can’t really feel it) that was written on the liner. Bonus recording of Die. Actually, I wanted to provide this as a whole on CD, but that will be another opportunity. In addition, a moving opening film and the soundtrack of Figure Of Eight are also included from the video of the CNN interview team. I would like you to listen carefully, but the enthusiasm and cheering of the audience at the time of the screening of this opening film is ridiculous. That’s right, many of you still remember the excitement of seeing the opening film that started with A Hard Day’s Night for the first time.

It is offered on the press board only for 100 sets, respecting Paul who is still singing and Millard who left a wonderful thing.

★初登場音源、伝説の仕事人マイク・ザ・マイク(マイク・ミラード氏)による1989年LAフォーラム初日を超最高級音質でとらえた名録音(フロアど真ん中12列目録音)、音が良すぎる!
★ライナーに書いてあった唯一の欠点Live And Let Dieの爆発音のメーター振り切りに対して、ボーナストラックとしてマニア秘蔵の同日録音のカセットからLive And Let Dieをボーナス収録。さらにCNN取材団のビデオからオープニングフィルムとFigure Of Eightのサウンドトラックも収録
★Vicky’s Vinylが製作に一枚噛んだといわれる同日収録盤のBACK IN THE USAのジャケットデザインを踏襲したパンフジャケ、内ジャケ写真はもちろんWhite Books秘蔵の未発表ライブフォト(あの配信されたジャケットではミラードの仕事をリスペクト出来ません)
★限定100セット、プレス盤2枚組

1989年から2年にわたり行われたワールドツアーのUS LEG初日、LAフォーラム11/23公演を初登場ミラード音源でリリースです。この日の為に日本からもファンクラブが旅行団を募り飛び立っていきました。1976年のWings Over America以来の全米ツアーであり、チケットは完全ソールドアウト、追加2公演も決まりLAでは5公演が行われました。その初日(でありUS LEG初日)を収めたアナログコレクターズLPの名盤、BACK IN THE USAは、アンドレア (Vicky’s Vinyl)が製作に携わったという話もききますが、当時はまことしやかにミラードの手による録音なのではないかとも言われてきました。

しかし、先月、ポールの3年ぶりのGOT BACKツアーが始まる寸前にこの音源が配信されて驚きです。なんと、BACK IN THE USAを上回る超最高級音質の同日録音の別音源だったのです。

伝説通りマイクを帽子につけて天井につるされたスピーカーの音をダイレクトに拾っているのでしょうか、フロアーB・ロウ12(アリーナど真ん中12列目)という絶好のポジションでのレコーディングでのアウトプットはいうまでもなく最強、それ故プレス盤でのご提供にこだわることにした次第なのです。

スペシャルボーナストラックとして、ライナーに書いてあった唯一の欠点(には到底感じられませんが)Live And Let Dieの爆発音のメーター振り切り問題に対して、マニア秘蔵の同日録音のカセットからLive And Let Dieをボーナス収録。本当はこれもまるごとCD化して提供したかったのですが、それはまた別の機会にします。さらにCNN取材団のビデオから感動のオープニングフィルムとFigure Of Eightのサウンドトラックも収録しています。よく聴いてみてほしいのですが、このオープニングフィルムの上映時のオーディエンスの熱狂、声援が無茶苦茶すごいんです。それもそうですよね、あのA Hard Day’s Nightから始まるオープニングフィルムを初めて見たときの感動を今でも思い出される方も多いことでしょう。

いまだに歌い続けているポールに、そして素晴らしいブツを残してくれたミラードをリスペクトして100セット限定でプレス盤でのご提供です。
