If you are interested in fusion, such as Eric Gale and Richard Tee, Marcus Miller and Steve Gadd, your blood pressure will rise by 10. It’s perfect for digging deeper into Tom Scott’s masterpiece “Apple Juice,” which was born out of such a dream. “Apple Juice” is a live album that was recorded by excerpting the live that was performed at the bottom line from January 15th to 17th, 1981, but this time it will be released here on January 14th, which is the day before. Early show and late show. Of course, the member organization is exactly the same as “Apple Juice”. Audience recording that was recorded so well that it would be mistaken for a sound board if there was no cheer. The set list doesn’t change much, but the performance is quite different just by listening to the early show and the late show, and it is a must-listen for fans who count “Apple Juice” as their favorite album. In addition, the points that are a little worrisome, such as chat between songs, have been carefully cut and edited.

エリック・ゲイルにリチャード・ティー、マーカス・ミラーにスティーヴ・ガッド等、少しでもフュージョン系に興味がある方なら血圧が10は上がるであろうフュージョン界の錚々たるメンツ。そんな夢の編成で生まれたトム・スコットの名盤『Apple Juice』を、さらに掘り下げるにはもってこい。『Apple Juice』は1981年1月15日から17日にかけてボトム・ラインで行われたライヴを抜粋して収録されたライヴ・アルバムですが、今回ここにリリースするのはその前日にあたる1月14日のアーリー・ショウとレイト・ショウなのです。もちろんメンバー編成は『Apple Juice』と全く同じ。歓声が無ければサウンドボードと間違うほど良く録られたオーディエンス収録。セット・リストこそ大きく変わりませんが、アーリー・ショウとレイト・ショウを聴き比べただけでもその演奏はだいぶ違っており、『Apple Juice』をお気に入りアルバムに数えるファンは必聴です。尚、曲間でややチャットなど気になる点は丁寧にカット編集してあります。
