Robert Plant finally arrives in Japan with his band, The Sensational Space Shifters, to perform at a summer festival! This release captures the full concert from August 17, 2014, at Maishima, Osaka—his first visit to Japan for live shows in a full 18 years—featuring superb, high-quality sound that delivers incredible power and an immersive atmosphere.
The Sylph label presents the pinnacle of modern audience recordings, perfectly recreating this moving live performance with rich, full-bodied vocals and guitar, an exquisite balance of instruments, and outstanding stereo imaging. It is guaranteed to give you goosebumps.
The setlist includes three songs from the new album (released in September), two covers, and—to the delight of longtime fans—five Led Zeppelin classics! While "Black Dog" is performed with a world-music-style arrangement, the finale, "Whole Lotta Love," explodes with classic Zeppelin-style hard rock guitar, bringing the crowd to a fever pitch! Plant’s vocals remain remarkably youthful—he is in such fine form that it is hard to believe he is 65. The band’s sound, driven by skilled musicians who effortlessly master ethnic instruments, emphasizes rhythm and groove to perfection; the jam sections are packed with highlights, delivering a thrilling, electrifying experience! This is a miraculous 75-minute live performance that showcases Plant’s artistry as it continues to evolve and expand. It is an absolute must-listen for fans! Brought to you by the Sylph label with stunning cover art and superb sound quality, this is the definitive release for reliving the Osaka show—a memorial item that every fan needs to own.
