Notes from XAVEL:
In 2023, during their first Japan tour in four years, coinciding with the release of the quadruple project “I Am the Moon,” the band performed at Tokyo Dome City Hall on October 22nd, the final day in Tokyo. This performance was recorded using a multi-stereo IEM matrix.
The recording process involved professional editing with the familiar multi-IEM matrix source, utilizing the uncompressed multi-ear monitor sources used by the band members on stage. This time, the latest equipment was employed to mix multiple monitor sources with different mix balances into a stereo mix with exquisite composition and localization. Despite the large ensemble of 12 musicians, the result was comparable to a stereo soundboard recording.
As is typical for the band, known for their diverse daily setlists, the fourth day’s performance included many covers performed for the first time on this tour. These included “Statesboro Blues” (Willie McTell), “Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?” (Derek and the Dominos), “I Pity the Fool” (Bobby Bland), and “Beck’s Bolero” (Jeff Beck), among other unique selections like “A Simple Song (I Want to Take You Higher).”
This disc captures the strong performance that concluded the four Tokyo shows, in the best quality.
