The sound quality is excellent for an audience recording across all shows, with crowd noise adding to the sense of realism. The content is virtually complete; it is an absolute must-listen for readers who attended these shows some twenty years ago, and it offers plenty of enjoyment for those who didn't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet’s take a look at the specific performances.\u003cbr\u003eAs this was the opening night of the 1982 Japan tour, I was naturally following the band closely and was present at the venue myself. Expecting the first song to be \"Death Alley Driver\" from the then-new album, I was quite disappointed when the track that actually played was the one found at the start of Disc 1. Needless to say, while I was left somewhat on the sidelines, the energy level of both the band and the audience was surging. During the intro to Track 8 on Disc 1, they briefly played snippets of \"Lazy\" and \"Woman From...\"—and this was the only show in Osaka where they performed both of those songs. Track 2 on Disc 1 was also played only on this night for some reason; it seems Ritchie was in high spirits right from the start of the tour. After the drum solo, a chant of \"Ritchie! Ritchie!\" erupted from the crowd—reminiscent of the famous \"Ei-chan\" chants for Eikichi Yazawa. He must have found it difficult to maintain a poker face while trying to suppress a smile of delight. True to the rule that an amazing main set is often followed by a quick encore, they wrapped things up with a brisk, straightforward performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sylph Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55680826147115,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0846\/6475\/files\/1_84e6138d-a792-4253-8869-c53fd96ad5ed.webp?v=1790289248","url":"https:\/\/wmlshopjapan.com\/it\/products\/rainbow-freezing-blow-day-one-2cdr","provider":"WML Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
