Description

A rare album made up of two recordings. First out are 5 tracks from the MTV unplugged show that was recorded at the Warner Hollywood/MTV Studios in Los Angeles on the 27th of April 1992. This is a very entertaining performance however this disc lacks the two cover tunes that were performed this evening (the Simon And Garfunkel cover Scarborough Fair/Canticle and Neil Youngs Rockin In The Free World). In an excerpt from the MTV Unplugged book you could read “In a moment of strange synchronicity, Queensryche became the second Seattle-area band in three shows to cover ‘Rockin’ in the Free World.’ Stranger still, Neil Young himself bypassed the song when he eventually recorded his own Unplugged. The most lasting memory of this taping is of the ease with which the band worked. Their relationship with both their vocal fans and the entire staff at MTV was both sincere and professional, even after technical problems forced them to run through four takes of ‘Silent Lucidity” (there is a second or two of silence in The Killing Words on this disc). The remaning 9 tracks on this disc comes from a live show at the Nihon Seinen-kan, Tokyo, Japan on the 5th of August 1984. It shows what the band were all about back in 1984. Geoff Tate is in fine voice and his theatrical stage presentation is front and centre even at this early stage of the bands career. Highlights will be a matter of taste of course but a tasty rendition of the bands classic Queen Of The Reich will have you nodding your head in appreciation. For any Queensryche collector this is a fun album to own
