December 16, 2016, 8 years ago
Internationally renowned guitar legend, Uli Jon Roth, releases a very special live performance from the Nakano Sun Plaza Hall in Tokyo, Japan, entitled Tokyo Tapes Revisited - Live In Japan, today (December 16th) via UDR Music. An unboxing video for the special boxset edition can be seen below:
The performance is a celebration of Roth's classic work with the Scorpions, and was recorded on February 20th, 2015 at the same venue as the band's classic 1978 live album, Tokyo Tapes.
Roth was a founding member of the Scorpions in 1973 before leaving to pursue a solo career in 1978 with his own Electric Sun. As the recognized creative heartbeat of the Scorpions, Roth achieved worldwide fame for his unique guitar and song-writing talents, in turn causing him to influence a plethora of modern guitar giants such as Kirk Hammett of Metallica, Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins and Steve Vai.
Check out a three minute video trailer below:
Tokyo Tapes Revisited - Live In Japan is released in four different formats:
