Paul was Japan’s first experience of visiting Japan as the Beatles in 1966. After that, in 1975 he was announced as Wings, but due to preliminary examination the entry permission did not go down and it was canceled. He returned to Japan again in 1980, but forced return without playing. And the first solo performance was in 1990, for the first time in 24 years. Although I will come to Japan again in 1993, next time I had to wait 9 years until 2002. And the memorable new year ‘s performance in 2013 was another nine years later. Speaking of Paul’s visit to Japan in this way, it should have been a very rare experience to be memorized in connection with that era, that moment.

However, rumors rumored that we will come back to Japan a couple of years after the excitement of the 2013 tour in Japan. I was surprised because it was true that I thought it was originally Gaseta. This performance in 2014 will be canceled due to poor physical condition, but I came again in 2015 to fulfill the contract. It is said to come to Japan in 2017 which will be the first time in two years. Paul’s arrival in Japan will no longer be a rare experience, but as part of the world tour, it will be incorporated into Paul’s routines in the US, Europe and Japan.

The biggest topic of the performance in Japan in 2015 was the Nippon Budokan performance for the first time in 49 years. One of the Beatles that appeared in the images of long time ago played at the Budokan again after half a century. Moreover, it was one that made fans crazy with a special set list only for Budokan including ‘First Girl’ which will be premiered. You can say that it was a historical triumphal performance in Japan’s rock.

In 2016, Paul enters a tour entitled “ONE ON ONE TOUR” for a new tour title. Paul was born in the prewar Showa 17th year, it is the late elderly who will be 75 years old in 2017. How long can we go to the tour after this? Perhaps not physically or age-old, such a large-scale tour will not be done in 5 years. And is not that self-awareness also in person himself? So, it is not an impatience to keep it on stage as much as possible so that there is no regrets when you can, but you are thinking about closing such a life. For fans who have experienced the 1980’s when Paul is not on tour at all, he must be looking at Paul who is doing the annual tour as it is unbelievable.

The ONE ON ONE tour that began in 2016 has entered the second year. And on the New Year ‘s Eve 2016, the Japanese performance was announced in the form of sending a message to the Red and White Singing Battle. This is not only the first Japanese tour as ONE ON ONE, but also that Japan was chosen as the site of the first concert in 2017. It was told from the mouth that he was rehearsing for this Japanese performance again, the year changed, the new ONE ON ONE tour was expected, the announcement was in Japan. Initially, three performances were announced at the Tokyo Dome, after which the Budokan was announced again. Personally, I believe that Budokan is worth being one time only, but as far as the fans are concerned, the number of performances to be increased at any rate. The schedule of Paul’s visit to Japan in 2017 is as follows.

April 25, 2017 Nippon Budokan
Tokyo Dome April 27, 2017
Tokyo Dome April 29, 2017
Tokyo Dome April 30, 2017

Although it is worrisome that the number of performances decreases every year whenever you visit Japan every year, there are parts told by the tone of “Do you come again?” For other enthusiastic fans, which may be unavoidable . Especially the two previous tours in Japan are the same OUT THERE tour, and I still understand what has been received like that. However, this time it is a tour to Japan that changed tours and titles newly. Of course there was also a change in the set list, and attention was focused on the song unique to the ONE ON ONE tour that I could not listen to until now. This work is completely recorded with the mix of the IEM sound source and the AUD sound source with the Budokan performance of April 25 of the first day of the performance of the first performance in Japan in 2017.

The opening starts with ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ which is the biggest feature of the ONE ON ONE tour. In the original, Paul also sings the part that John was singing. And in the United States and Europe, “Save Us” was organized for the second song, but this time it is “Jet” at the Budokan. Following “Drive My Car” and “Junior’s Farm”, it is an expansion of the early stage which can excite the excitement as to what song to play next, with the pattern which has never been seen before. Especially “Jet” and “Junior’s Farm” are similar songs, which played a role of supplementing each other in the past, but it is the first time that two songs are played as well this time. In “Maybe I’m Amazed”, the voice seems to be awfully hard, and it has a sense of incongruity to miss the lyrics, but it can be said that there is significance in being able to listen with the performance and singing by Paul himself who is no longer the author.

Following “Everynight” after a long absence at the acoustic corner, the two songs “In Spite Of All Danger” and “Love Me Do” are the first for Japanese fans. The more unusual version was “Blackbird”. In the latter half of the song the performance becomes doubtful, I mistake the guitar for a moment. Although I got over well at that point, I made a mistake again shortly after being shaken, and there is a scene where “wait a minutes” (a little wait) and re-partitioning scenes despite the middle of the song. The audience got excited at this place, and in response to that, in “Blackbird” with a serious message, what Paul is singing while singing. And as if to chop it, “Tou, Bei, Fly” is changing the way of singing. It is solder happening. Also, although the image of the opening of “Magical Mystery Tour” is strong, like 1993’s THE NEW WORLD TOUR, this time it is playing in the middle of the second half.

Well, in this Budokan performance, “I Wanna Be Your Man” is a song of the ONE ON ONE tour that was newly added in 2017. Apples arrived in Japan in 2016 and performed a performance ahead of them, but this time Paul’s self-covering. Explanation of the first public disclosure in Japan from his / her mouth is made (in Japanese). Since the live version has already been recorded as a sound source from the sound check at the live album “Paul Is Live” in 1993, there is no shock as much as the previous “Another Girl”, and although the event was DESERT TRIP As we have already performed in this section, this means “to be released for the first time in Japan” to the last.

There are also world premiere, world premiere. Strictly speaking it is not the first time to play with a live, but it must be a rare selection. That is “SGT. Pepper’s Reprise”. It was described as “songs that I do not want to play in Tokyo”, which is Paul’s memory mismatch, in the performance in 1990 in Japan, “SGT. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” and played in medley and 2002 The end of the year’s performance in Japan was this song and the medley of “The End”. However, it is the first time in the world to play alone as this time.

This work is composed of Budokan performance, mixed IEM sound source and AUD sound source. IEM sound source is what is also called earphone. In order to make sure the performance of the performer surely, the performer used to perform while checking his or her sound and the sound of other performers through the foot monitor, but now, the earphone which the wireless is skipped and heard in the ear Is becoming mainstream. The IEM tone generator is the one which intercepted the radio, and this IEM tone source intercepted what the Wix of the keyboard is using. It is a sound board sound source unlike a normal audience sound source. However, there is a difficulty in balancing and lack of presence is only a monitor sound source and it is said to be a drawback. This work solves its drawback by overlapping high quality sound audience sound sources. It clearly makes use of the advantage of both clearness of the sound board sound source and the presence of the audience sound source. As an example, “Hey Jude” does not have an audience chorus for IEM sound sources. This is a part of the highlight of the concert where the band stops playing, Paul pushes the venue and the place is exciting together. However, by complementing with a high-quality audience sound source, it seems to be like listening to a balanced sound board sound source.

Disc 3 contains sound checks performed on the day of the Budokan performance this time. Paul arrived at the Budokan around 3:30 pm on the day of the concert on the day before the concert, so as it is recorded in this work, for about 40 minutes, I play several songs for confirmation . This sound check is recording with IEM sound source alone. In addition, various messages by Paul himself for the 2017 Japanese performance are recorded as a bonus track. Inside is a recording for raising the value as a document of the 2017 tour to Japan, such as a message for the Budokan and a message for the Japanese performance recorded making time by rehearsing. In the section that answers Q & A from fans, it is said from the person ‘s mouth that a special set list is prepared for Budokan.

In addition, as a bonus to this work, a postcard imitating the lithograph of the Budokan performance, and a total of 6 pages of inner with three facing spreads. In addition to the unreleased photographs of the day, flyers and posters, tickets and the like of the visit to Japan this time are posted on the inner, and it is to call up memories.
