EC Tokyo Japan Sept 13 1996

Elvis Costello and The Attractions
Tokyo, Japan
Kosei Nenkin Hall
September 13, 1996

Next up, the 1996 tour with the Attractions. The seven shows from the Japanese leg were the last shows of the All This Useless Beauty tour and EC's last shows with the Attractions ever. All were great shows. The setlists often changed significantly from night to night. Several songs have different arrangements than past tours. My plan is to upload all of the recordings from Japan that are of high quality and then move to the earlier US Tour. All will be from the DAT masters. Hopefully, all will contain cool new artwork by JohnE. Some of these shows may have been circulated on a limited basis. These new versions will be upgrades to previous versions.

Sound is fantastic. As good as it gets. This show (the fourth of a four night Tokyo run) is the best sounding of all the Japanese shows, and is unique like the others. Show opens with three songs from Get Happy and contains rare performances (for this tour) of Red Shoes, Hand in Hand, Almost Blue, Passionate Fight, and God Give Me Strength. This is a stellar show in both sound and performance. Enjoy. A lot of work went into this one.
