Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | Esoteric Recordings new re-mastered and expanded
3CD edition of LIVE! IN THE AIR AGE by BE BOP
DELUXE.
This legendary live album was released in July 1977
and would prove to be the band’s most successful
album, peaking at number 10 in the UK charts. The
album was issued at a time of growing commercial
success for the band and followed on the heels of
two highly acclaimed studio albums in thirteen
months, Sunburst Finish and Modern Music, both of
which reached the top twenty of the UK album
charts.
Live! In the Air Age would be the band’s only live
record and was recorded on a series of dates in the
UK in February and March 1977 on the Rolling Stones
mobile unit with John Leckie, who had engineered
co-produced the band’s previous two albums,
supervising the location recordings. The band’s UK
tour began in late January and was an audio-visual
extravaganza that featured the use of projection
screens and excerpts from the 1927 German silent
film Metropolis, director Fritz Lang’s striking
science fiction masterpiece.
Continuing into February, fate would intervene to
cause a postponement to the remainder of the tour.
Travelling to a concert in Bristol on 15th February
1977, Bill Nelson and John Leckie were involved in
a car accident which resulted in them being
hospitalised at Huddersfield Infirmary. Thankfully,
all involved recovered quickly from their injuries,
but as a result of the accident, the remaining
concerts were postponed until the end of March.
The tour began again with two concerts at
Hammersmith Odeon in London on March 25th and 26th
1977 which revealed the band to be on top form,
feeding off the tremendous warmth of the audience.
Further shows in Bristol and Bournemouth on the
27th and 28th March respectively also contained
many fine moments.
Bill Nelson and John Leckie selected the best
performances for mixing at Abbey Road and Advision
studios in London and LIVE! IN THE AIR AGE was
released in July 1977.
This set features the original album, newly
remastered from the original master tapes, and
restores the correct running order of the original
LP release and has three bonus tracks drawn from a
BBC Radio One JOHN PEEL SHOW session from January
1977.
Importantly, this 3 CD edition includes the entire
concert recorded at Hammersmith Odeon in London on
26th March 1977, one of the stand-out concerts from
that memorable tour, which has been newly mixed by
Stephen W. Tayler and is presented here for the
very first time. The recording reveals the
improvisational side of Be Bop Deluxe, particularly
on pieces such as Shine and Blazing Apostles which
made each Be Bop Deluxe concert unique. This
release includes an illustrated booklet with many
photographs and an essay of recollections by Bill
Nelson.
This expanded and remastered edition boxed of LIVE!
IN THE AIR AGE is a fitting tribute to a fine live
band and the creative vision of Bill Nelson.
