As steelydave said elsewhere:
I know this is probably going to be greeted mostly with a collective "meh" here
But Chisato Moritaka's most recent
Kono Machi 2019 tour on Blu-Ray is excellent!
Sound is stereo 24/48 but like most of her live performances it is high separation multi-track & sounds superb on the Surround Master! With a little pre-synth the stage sounds wrap around you but in basic Involve/QS it is still a very wide front sound stage with pin point locations & rock solid phantom center front imaging. Bass is low where its supposed to be & well defined, & the instruments are clean & detailed. Chisato is still rockin' that Rickenbacker!
She had her peak pop idol years mid 80's to mid 90's. Then she took time off to raise a family. She was never totally out of public awareness because she was always in demand for commercials, interviews, etc. About 6>7 years ago she made a come back & anchors the entertainment on stage at the Blue Note & Cotton club in Tokyo. Her 1989 Kokon Tozai tour was released on Blu-Ray. You can tell her lives were documented with film because it is so sharp & high quality. She comes out with a new performance Blu-Ray & CD every year.
Those new performances are not available on YouTube or anywhere else, not even her official YT channel for obvious reasons. But two of her older songs I think are worth sharing so if ya got a few minutes & an inquiring mind check 'em out.
First is
Tokyo Rush written by & featuring Harry Hosono of Yellow Magic Orchestra. Give a chance. I gotta say if Terry Gilliam made a music video, this is what it would look like:
The next one is alive performance of not very good quality but it's the best I could find. The title translates to
Teriyaki Burger which belies the power pop of this song. Indeed it starts out strong but ramps even more to a powerful conclusion. And ... air guitar about the 5 min mark haha:
