Richie Sambora and Orianthi have teamed up and returned to Japan for the first time in about two and a half years! This release features a complete recording of their November 8th show in Osaka—part of their first tour under the "RSO" band name—captured in superb, ultra-high audio quality that delivers immense power and a vivid sense of being there.

Experience the show brought back to life with a fantastic, high-energy sound that is incredibly realistic, boasting perfect stereo imaging and balance. The atmosphere is so vividly recreated, it feels as though the entire venue has been vacuum-sealed and preserved!

The setlist offers a rich variety of material—ranging from their signature hits to U2 covers and blues numbers—allowing the audience to fully savor their superb guitar work and vocals. On this night, fans can enjoy tracks that weren't performed in Tokyo, such as Orianthi’s "What's It Gonna Be" and "Sunshine Love," as well as Richie’s "Every Road Leads Home to You."

Richie’s solo tracks feature outstanding live arrangements that highlight his soulful, soaring vocals and emotional guitar playing; the performances of "Every Road Leads Home to You," "Stranger in This Town," "Harlem Rain," and "Seven Years Gone" are sure to be deeply moving. Richie’s voice is in top form, and his skillful arrangements of "Wanted Dead or Alive" and "Livin' on a Prayer" make for a truly rewarding listening experience. Of course, Orianthi also shines with her cool guitar work and vocals, delivering a bluesy acoustic arrangement of "You Don't Wanna Know."

The band members—including a powerful female drummer and a blues harp player—also deliver superb, tight performances. Although the turnout was somewhat modest, the fans' enthusiastic energy fueled a fantastic show that defied the low attendance. With the added bonus of the duo's charming, friendly banter that brings a smile to your face, this electrifying, two-hour performance is an absolute must-listen for any fan. The definitive release from the Sylph label—featuring stunning cover art and superb sound quality—lets you relive the Osaka performance! A must-have memorial item for fans has arrived!
