 Description

[Machine Translation] Treasure Ark, a series of high-quality live recordings! After the release of "FLASH" (1985), a unique and danceable album with vocals, "FLASH TOUR 1986" was followed by a mini tour in Japan with 7 shows only, and the final show at Nippon Budokan on June 11 was recorded! The first day of the tour, June 1, held at a special venue in Karuizawa Prince Hotel, was a super-luxurious show with Santana and Steve Lukather, and was famous for being broadcast on TV. From here, the tour went on to Osaka, Fukuoka, and Nagoya, and this was the second of two days at the Nippon Budokan, the final day of the tour. The album tends to be avoided by the most ardent fans, perhaps because of its dated sound, but in fact, this is the sound that is trending around the world today. The live show was performed by the main members of the album production, Jimmy Hall (vo, sax) and Doug Wimbish (b), along with Jan Hammer (key) and Simon Phillips (ds). Since Beck had been playing instrumental music since he went solo, it was rare for him to perform live with vocals, and the only other time he performed with the same lineup outside of Japan was in LA on April 19 of the same year. The setlist consisted mainly of songs from "FLASH" and songs from his solo career. The most unique songs in the setlist were two songs from the popular TV drama "Miami Vice," for which Jan Hammer composed the music. However, Beck's omnivorous nature makes him seem completely at home on the album. He also played a cover of the Troggs' "Wild Thing," which had not yet been released as a single. Jimmy Hall's (ex-Wet Willie) tough vocals are better than expected. Beck's guitar is also in fine form, making this a must have for all fans. Commentary included.
