Empress Valley x Zavel Japan presents the first recording from Paul McCartney's 2014 USA tour! The 2014 Japan tour ended in disappointment. Empress Valley x Zavel Japan continued searching for a place to raise their fist, or rather, a microphone, but they've now set their sights on Paul's comeback USA tour. The first recording from the US tour is from the July 9 Chicago United Center. This performance at this large venue, known as the home of the NBA's Chicago Bulls and the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks, has been completely captured with excellent audience recording, unique to Empress Valley x Zavel Japan! As you can hear from the online recordings available immediately after the concert, the great Paul seems to have recovered brilliantly since his illusory Japan tour, delivering a lively performance, including during the MC. The setlist was the same as last year's Japan tour, with no real surprises. However, this setlist debuted on the US tour, and the audience response was excellent. This item conveys the full story of this Chicago performance. From the opening film DJ mix to the closing confetti, it captures the sizzling night with the highest quality sound! Now, as for the sound itself, the Empress Valley x Zavel Japan original master is truly something else! Recorded very close to the stage, this ultra-high-quality master has been digitally remastered in 24-bit, creating a stunning finish that stands out from the many subtle sound sources flooding the internet, leaving you with a "Hmm... that's just how it is..." feeling! The wide-ranging, excellent, ultra-high-quality sound is sure to leave you in awe! Enjoy the overwhelming power of this authentic live sound!!!

Empress Valley x Zavel Japan presents the second recording from Paul McCartney's 2014 USA tour! Leaving Chicago, the birthplace of skyscrapers, we follow Paul and his entourage to Fargo, North Dakota, the town made famous by the title of a Coen brothers film. Surrounded by idyllic rural scenery, the Fargodome, the venue for this performance, evokes the atmosphere of a "small dome in the great outdoors." It was a slightly smaller venue, comparable in size to the Yokohama Arena in Japan. The crowd included an enthusiastic elderly couple who clearly grew up listening to everything from the Beatles to Wings; a group of drunk college-aged students who relentlessly yelled "Whoa!"; a group of slightly creepy high school students, all wearing Nirvana T-shirts and clearly belonging to the lower echelons of the school hierarchy; and, conversely, a pretty young couple with blonde hair who seemed to embody the American dream. A chubby man with a shaved head and an exotic beauty dressed like a prostitute. It felt like everyone in town was crammed into this atmosphere. While a Sir Paul concert would be considered a major national event in Japan, here it felt more like a casual summer festival. The concert took place in this intimate setting, and the excitement in the venue was already building around the opening track, "Temporary Secretary." The venue was in perfect unison, and the lights finally went out. Paul, appearing in a light gray jacket, couldn't help but smile at the strange atmosphere. The familiar setlist played to a flawless rock show. The performers and the audience came together in a truly harmonious three hours, truly capturing the essence of live music. This film captures every last detail of this passionate night, from the DJ mix in the opening track to the confetti at the end of the show. As mentioned above, this was a relatively small live performance, recorded almost in the center of the arena, with the best sound from the main speakers. The sound quality of this item is excellently balanced, even surpassing that of the Chicago performance. This is a must-listen for fans, as it recreates the powerful, high-quality sound of Empress Valley & Zavel Japan, which exploded during their 2013 Japan tour, in a town in faraway North Dakota. The audience's excitement was extraordinary, and the live performance was held in a very intimate atmosphere, creating a sense of unity throughout the venue. It's amazing how, when the excitement is this intense, it's hard to ignore minor details like chatter or the voices of those around you. This is a truly immersive and controversial piece that will surely occupy a unique place among Paul's many Out There Tour live recordings!

Empress Valley x Zavel Japan presents the third release from Paul McCartney's 2014 USA tour! This live performance took place at Pinnacle Bank Arena, a venue adjacent to Haymarket, a streetscape that evokes the spirit of old America, in the lush downtown area of Lincoln, a small Midwestern city home to the University of Nebraska. This premium-quality recording features 24-bit digital remastering from the original audience master. The opening DJ remix, starting with "Bésame Mucho," is included in its entirety! The venue went dark during the familiar, extremely slow-tuned rendition of Booker T & MG's "The End," and Paul, clad in a crimson jacket, appeared to thunderous cheers. The night in Lincoln kicked off with "Eight Days a Week"! The US performance, with its different voltage and humidity compared to Japan, sounded amazing! The instruments sounded different! The sound pressure is incredible! Moreover, "I Saw Her Standing There" was played for the first time in a long time as an encore. The recording position, like the Fargo concert, was near the center of the arena, providing optimal acoustics from the main speakers. The compact venue itself also minimized the sound reflections often associated with large venues, resulting in a well-balanced sound, just like the Fargo concert. This is a must-listen for all fans, as it recreates the powerful, high-quality sound of Empress Valley & Zavel Japan, which exploded during their 2013 Japan tour, in the faraway town of Lincoln, USA! The audience's excitement is just right, and while not as intense as the Fargo concert, the sing-along parts of songs like "Hey Jude" are still spine-chilling! This is a first-class live documentary you'll enjoy again and again. Alongside the Fargo concert, this is a cozy live performance in one of the smallest cities on this US tour! It's a night packed with highlights, including "I Saw Her Standing There," which was played for the first time in a long time.

Empress Valley x Zavel Japan presents the fourth release from Paul McCartney's 2014 USA tour! This live recording, held at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri, one of America's largest cities and home to a thriving skyscraper district, marks the final day of Paul's comeback USA tour in July. This premium-quality recording features 24-bit digital remastering from the original audience master. The album features the signature Empress Valley label's signature beautiful coated paper jacket, and is released as a 3-CD set. In stark contrast to the idyllic atmosphere of Fargo and Lincoln, the vibrant, even somewhat dangerous, urban atmosphere heightens the excitement for the show. The Sprint Center, where the performance took place, has a capacity of 18,500. The venue's shape and size are comparable to those of the Nippon Budokan, inevitably evoking memories of the failed 2014 Budokan concert. As with Fargo and Lincoln, the recording position was chosen near the center of the arena, where the main speakers provided optimal acoustics. The compact size of this venue, combined with the lack of sound reflections common in large venues, contributed to the exceptional sound, resulting in a direct, wide-ranging sound with no sense of distance. This masterpiece boasts truly "superb sound quality" that is on a completely different level from the flood of online downloads available! Paul's performance on this day was so excellent that it felt like he was at his best, so if I were to recommend one recording from this USA tour, it would probably be this one.

Regarding the recording content: This day, the entire album is recorded, starting with the opening DJ remix of "Bésame Mucho." The lights went out and the show began. The great Paul appeared in a light gray jacket, beaming with a smile on his face. They were full of energy after a month-and-a-half break. Following their familiar set, the first encore of the night was "Kansas City / Hey Hey Hey Hey." Following Lincoln, they once again performed "I Saw Her Standing There" instead of "Get Back." The high-quality sound of Empress Valley & Zavel Japan, which exploded during their 2013 Japan tour, was recreated in faraway Kansas City, USA, with superb audio quality. The audience's excitement was appropriately urban and sophisticated, ensuring a stress-free listening experience from start to finish.

A sizzling live performance in Kansas City, a major city in the heart of the US! A night packed with highlights, including the signature "Kansas City" and "I Saw Her Standing There," which follows the Lincoln performance. Enjoy this must-listen performance, the finale of their July 2014 USA tour, in the best possible audio quality!
