The tour, which supported the release of his new album *August* (produced by Phil Collins), consisted of only five shows; this release documents the opening night. Kicking off with the Cream classic \"Crossroads,\" the band comes out of the gate at full throttle; as it is the first night of the tour, the recording conveys a palpable sense of tension throughout. The setlist features Cream-era staples like \"Crossroads,\" \"White Room,\" and \"Sunshine of Your Love\"—songs that make you want to exclaim \"Wow!\"—alongside \"Holy Mother\" from the *August* album. The band plays with great intensity and spirit, yet the inclusion of so many hit songs makes for a comforting and enjoyable listening experience. Regarding sound quality: although it is an audience recording, the balance is excellent. The high frequencies aren't overly emphasized, resulting in a natural, easy-to-listen-to sound. You can fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere, free from any muddiness.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HERCLES ARCHIVES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54930204426539,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0846\/6475\/files\/1_dc4aa2ae-9e8b-4da7-a63e-64d845b730f3.jpg?v=1785893414","url":"https:\/\/wmlshopjapan.com\/de\/products\/eric-clapton-august-japan-tour-1987-budokan-2cdr","provider":"WML Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
