Tokyo Tales Revisited | Blind Guardian

[@Soydrinker999]

hearing the crowd singing the chorus to Journey Through The Dark is one of the best moments on this album

[@dfbevilacqua]

Love this series! That álbum marked my days back when I was a teenager.

東京物語は最高のライブアルバムだぜ‼︎

[@HT-re9di]

We are Japanese bard's voices in NHK hall (^-^)/ Good memories live in Japan

[@panagiotisexplorer213]

Please do a video explaining the songwriting process. It's very different from the other bands. The song structures, riffs, harmonies, how you get the verses sounds different from each other etc.

I've listened to most of your interviews on this time and subject (incl. all your other Lives) and still wonder... DO you, guys, realize (I think, you still don't) what a LEGEND it became in an instant and how huge was this Live album for your reputation, and not speaking of media attention or that you became 'one of those extraterrestrials Been to and being Big in Japan' 😁 No, just because: the sound, your precise and stil totally full of life playing and the audience presence. Just think about it... I mean, in any country outside the West - where you've just become famous, where we did not have access to your TV and media articles and opinions, and where we did not even have access to legal original CDs, cassettes and LPs... Everithing was just mouth to mouth, one re-recording to another, one cassette player to the next, house by house, classmate by classmate, friend by friend :) And I'm sure the same was the reason it did impact your reputation in the West too. The QUALITY of songs, singing, playing, the record as a whole... and the fact that you were just starting your career. "Tokio Tales" became and will remain an instant classic in Metal - at the level that Purple's "Made in Japan" still holds in Rock.

The same is with Helloween's "Live In U.K.".

I remember I went to this tour at Yokohama not Tokyo. At the live Hansi played his bass guitar with singing.

[@FedericoZeOj]

such a lovely band!! thanks!!!!!

[@philippweisang]

I'm looking forward to the Demons and Wizards Tour!

[@predator5861]

So am I, can't wait to see them at Wacken.

[@marcorepiso5379]

Those 4 are my legendary lineup. PS: Andre's my hero. He's like a XVII century or so composer come to metal today. Metal Beethoven.

[@-nika-4958]

iconic.

[@celticfrost86]

This was the best live album in power metal history.

[@JayTor2112]

I was definitely hoping for more songs on this re-release, stuff I know was played on these shows but not included on the original release, like Somerwhere Far Beyond, The Bard's Song (both parts), Theatre of Pain, Ashes to Ashes.

[@keelinmetaljam923]

I just got the 07 remaster and I think it sounds great, it's a little cheaper too

[@ShadowZero1980]

Don't forget Run for the Night! A real pity they never released a 2-disc complete version.

[@tatoxl]

Is there any kind of video version of Tokyo Tales? I'd love to see non bootleg live videos of that era

[@ontrackbyallancunhafuligem6921]

The best live album of all time! \m/

[@keelinmetaljam923]

Kiss Alive, Black Sabbath live evil, But I do like hearing Hansi play bass. Majesty was a beast trk on this

[@ontrackbyallancunhafuligem6921]

@@keelinmetaljam923 Motörhead live at Hammersmith, Judas Priest unleashed in the east, Thin Lizzy live and dangerous. I love these live albums but, Tokyo Tales is still my favorite live album.

[@ShadowZero1980]

I need to name Metallica's Seattle '89 show :D (though it was a live video). But my fav together with Tokyo Tales!

[@ShadowZero1980]

What did Hansi (ever) tell in interviews was changed on the bass lines in the studio?

[@davidrenatito2674]
