concert Comments:

One of the few Japanese concerts Dire Straits have ever played, and possibly the only one available on bootleg.
Some funny moments when Mark introduces the songs to the Japanese audience. 

Also one guy keeps shouting loudly for Skateaway. Mark gets really annoyed by this and just when he is announcing Going home, this person shouts again very loud. Mark replied: "Where are you? Skateaway... Skateaway... Come on man, do us a favour: skate away!" 

There is also a guest saxophone player present on this recording, the Australian Paul Williamson.

Enlight remaster Comment:

Ramstered by Enlight , all tracks are volume-normalized separate, using an adaptive mode ( no peak to peak or replaygain is used)! Clicks,crackle's/clips has been removed slightly for the cleaning part. Stereo has been vitalized by 12.3 % max. (  channels Db upped with 2.3 left and 2.5 right, not linked!!)Loudness dynamic prozessed in user mode, some eq change are carefully made, . this make's an improved sound and gives more room too the seperate instruments . I've used the best mixed-sourced VHs version. Thanks to the orig taper/upper.

For those who don't care about the process............

A great sounding and completely new improved TOKYO 1983 listening experience!!

HAVE FUN WITH THIS Enlight remaster!! which i gave the title : "Rising the Sun 1983" to avoid any mix up with the excisting boots!

Perfect sound. Musically great and some funny moments when Mark makes some jokes with the audience.

A must  have!!

  1. What a beauty. Not without flaws, but better than most other Dire Straits audience recordings, and with a very interesting setup - a very long and fantastic Telegraph Road, Going Home with synthesizers... Thanks a lot. Keep'm coming.... :-)
