Before his death in January, legendary guitarist Jeff Beck revisited concert recordings made by Beck, Bogert & Appice, the power trio he formed in 1972 with drummer/singer Carmine Appice and bassist/singer Tim Bogert. The live music captures the band at the beginning and end of its short-but-influential partnership, with two shows in Japan in 1973 and one of the group's final performances in London a year later.<br/><br/>All three band members were involved in creating LIVE IN JAPAN 1973, LIVE IN LONDON 1974, and the collection is dedicated to Beck and Bogert, who died in 2023 and 2021, respectively. The set includes an expansive booklet with extended liner notes detailing the group's history by music journalist/manager Bruce Pilato, along with memorabilia, archival photos, and a replica poster.<br/><br/>Beck and Appice mixed all the concerts in this set from the original multi-tracks that had been in Beck's archive for almost 50 years, thus knocking the many bootleg quality releases, that Beck hated, out of the park! The two performances at Koseinenkin Hall in Osaka, Japan (recorded May 18 and 19, 1973) were released exclusively in Japan a few months after the shows, but never in the U.S. The complete concert at the Rainbow Theatre in London, England (recorded January 26, 1974) has never been released anywhere. <br/><br/>In the booklet, Pilato explores the short existence and lasting legacy of Beck, Bogert & Appice, a supergroup that critics once hailed as "the first successor to Cream" (Melody Maker) and an "ensemble of virtually unparalleled magnificence" (NME). <br/><br/>LIVE IN JAPAN 1973 was recorded only a few weeks after Beck, Bogert & Appice's self-titled debut came out. The music ripples with raw energy as the group delivers exhilarating live versions of nearly every song on the album, including "Superstition," "Lady," and "Livin' Alone." The trio also played songs by the Yardbirds ("Jeff's Boogie") and the Jeff Beck Group ("Morning Dew" and "Going Down.")

Forsa Studio, utanför Hudiksvall, var under ett tiotal år ett sällan skådat musikaliskt nav i Norrland. Punkband som Missbrukarna, Totalitär, Traste & Superstararna och Dagens Ungdom spelades flitigt i radioprogrammet Ny våg. Studion var också startpunkten för den folkrock och postpunk som kom att dominera 90-talet med namn som Perssons Pack, Sigge Hill, Traste Lindéns Kvintett, The Bangsters och Brainbombs. Denna bok och dubbel-CD täcker de viktiga åren 1978-89 och är fylld med outgivna pärlor, upphittade under 5 års restaurering av studions mer än 600 rullband. Med skivorna finns en 72 sidors historik om studion och banden och många aldrig tidigare publicerade bilder från den allt för okända delen av punkrörelsen i Hälsingland och det som kom sen.
