Wild Horses had the pedigree to die for, tracing their lineage directly to Rainbow and Thin Lizzy, two of the most iconic hard rock acts in the history of the genre. In guitarist Brian Robertson and bassist/vocalist Jimmy Bain, they had a hard drinking, hard rocking heart and soul. Naturally, the land of the rising sun took Wild Horses to it's heart in much the same way it had fallen head over heels for the band's illustrious parents and thus the band found themselves in Tokyo in October of 1980 in promotion of their second album. And the rest, as they say.... Recently discovered, this recording shows the band at the peak of it's powers in front of a very! - adoring audience. Come back with us in time that magical evening....

Great live show!
This release may or may not be legitimate, judging by the lack of any liner notes, but its an entertaining listen nevertheless. Former Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian "Robbo" Robertson and former Rainbow bassist Jimmy Bain paired up for a helluva band from late 1978 to 1982. I had read all the reviews about their "poor man's Thin Lizzy" sound and shambolic live performances but I don't believe a word! I love the 2 albums they did (especially the first album) and I had listened to this show from Japan online. The sound isn't bad at all even if it isn't technically perfect. I'm happy to add this to my CD collection. Play it loud!

This is from an audience tape....
The music here is great (if you are a fan of Wild Horses, or Brian Robertson) but this is definitely sourced from a "bootleg" AUDIENCE tape, which is not what I was expecting. You can hear an annoying woman screaming quite often during this (as well as other crowd noise which is captured by the microphone).Regardless of the tape source this is still cool to have, but buyer beware. The sound quality is OK for an audience tape but if I had known what this was I would not have bought it.

Love it, The Sound Quality is better then the BBC Live in Concert.Great track list and is better then a lot of there concert.Only cost £6.71 with postage would gladly pay double that.And not to be forgotten it was recorded 35 Year's Ago.

Worth a listen
I really enjoyed it, thought the price was ok , it brought back a lot of memories as I had seen them live many times including when they would jam with Phil Lynott , Scott Gorham and various others, the sound I thought was excellent, bearing in mind how long ago and when it was recorded but it does have the odd minor moment,nothing major

カンゲキー！！
この日のライブに行きました。当時のジャーナリズムのデフレ、メイデン，ガールと並んだ「メタル四天王」というマトハズレな評価のおかげで、このバンドはワリを食いました。Wild Horses はヘビメタではなく、上質のブリティッシュ・ポップです。某音楽誌にもメタクソのライブレビューが載り、それもまた、マトハズレも甚だしい。このバンドを心から愛していたワタシは怒り狂いました。ジャーナリストの歪んだ偏見がバンドやファンを傷つけた好例です。さて、ライブ自体はゴキゲン（死語？）なパワーポップで、当時、ファーストしか発売されていなかったため未発曲も多く、後のセカンドに収録されていない曲も演奏されました。じっくり聴き直したいなあああああ、と思っていたワタシにこのCDは最高のプレゼントでした。観客の私語も近くで録音されていますが、演奏楽曲の音質のクオリティはけっして悪いものではなく、編集とイコライジングでちゃんとしたライブアルバムにもできたでしょう。手を加えていないだけかえって生々しく、ジミーベインの日本語まじりのたどたどしいMCにも当時の興奮が蘇ります。

ノスタルジーに浸りたい方のみおすすめ
当時、見に行きました。リジー時代から好きだった、初生ロボ体験でした。当時、「あれ？？こんなもん？？」と思いましたが、実際に聴き直してみると、思うほど酷くは無い内容です。録音状態はただのブートを無理矢理処理した感じですが、実際に体験した方は楽しめると思います。

こらあかん
以前ブートレッグで出ていた生録音源と同じです～チャットが収録されている本人にとっては☆５つかな。記録以外の何物でもありません。
