Part of the Light Mellow presents J-FUSION Renaissance Color Vinyl Reissue Series Vol. 3, this limited first pressing reissue celebrates the renewed global popularity of Japanese crossover and fusion music with a special color vinyl edition selected from Universal Music's catalog under the overall supervision of Toshikazu Kanazawa. Featuring the final lineup of Issei Noro, Minoru Mukaiya, Tetsuo Sakurai, and Akira Jimbo, this live album documents Casiopea's 1988 world tour across Brazil, Australia, Japan, Mexico, and the United States, capturing a powerful and dynamic performance that reflects the band's celebrated second era and golden age. The only live release from the AURA/Polydor period, it offers a rare snapshot of the group's overseas touring activities and presents a slightly wilder sound with sharper dynamic contrasts than their studio recordings. The Japan performance includes guest appearances by Horn Spectrum and TOPS Horns, while this edition is pressed on clear sky blue vinyl (63-B01), produced by Issei Noro, and newly remastered and cut by Katsutoshi Kitamura of Mixer's Labo.
