Japan - Rhodesia . Live Hammersmith Odeon 1981. Audio Only

[markkeogh18]

Suprised they were playing very old material on this tour. I really thought they'd dropped doing Rhodesia by 1981!

@atrios28 Yes, I agree!

[atrios28]

love that THICK analogue prophet synth

[grovegreener]

One of the greatest bands ever

[korkeycat]

Brilliant ! i saw them the same year at Liverpool Empire, will never forget it i was 16 n had to go on my own cos they were to far ahead of there time for my mates to appreciate ! great mates eh ???

[Stairway2Evans]

I was at this gig...and this recording is so good...where did you get it? They played the Stand Theatre in the same year supporting Zaine Griff...criminal.

[shinysynthcity]

Good how they adapted the song a little to fit in with their newer style.

...vocally i mean ;)

[stevemangler1]

The first album is good but Obscure Alternatives is super .

Probably my favorite track off the album as well - excellent live version !!

Is this the tour to promote Polaroids?... if so I was at this, my first ever Japan concert... They removed this song from their play list for the Tin Drum tour... Never heard them play it again live until now.

[Falcocinni]

Wicked version mate! Thanks.

@joziguy

Sadly folks this is true - please do what you can to support.

[brad42948]

great - my fav early track. Jansen... to be that good, that young, is just scary.

[eknivsnikta]

thanks for putting this up! great live version. makes me want to reexamine their early stuff.

[brettrink]

Awesome!

Sounds better live than on the CD version.
