Journey: 1983-02-24 Osaka, Japan (FLAC_AUD Master Remaster_2 CD)

This is one of my favorite Frontiers tour Journey audience recorded shows out there.  And this copy being shared today is a remastered copy of the master recording reportedly.  And unlike the copy uploaded earlier this year by me on the show's anniversary, this copy is not only better sounding but it is lossless.  It seems the copy found HERE was a lossy copy after all.  This copy is by far the best I have heard and "techtuts" did a fabulous job in remastering it too!

LINEAGE:
Master cassette > EQ > FLAC > techtuts > Processing: iZotope RX4 (Light Denoise and EQ) >
me > TLH > WAV (to test for lossiness) > Audacity (to view waveform, embed metadata/track titles & info, and then to re-encode) > FLAC 8 > TLH (to check for SBE's and create and verify new ffp & md5 files) > you

This show we have thanks to "techtuts" continuous searching and making new contacts that helped out with copies of some of the shows we both were looking for.  He was able to get hold of a number of shows replacing some that have turned out being lossy and some neither of us had until recently.  We're both still looking for a few shows and I bet that over time they will resurface again.

This show to me is superb in sound!  But trying to rate it without any bias, it is definitely an excellent to superb recording of the Journey concert.  The crowd is great and even though there is some of the customary Japanese hand clapping during some songs, the audience noise is very little and low.  Songs like "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart" have some clapping throughout the song but it isn't the kind that ruins the song or stands out real loudly at all.

There are a few shows from this Japan 1983 tour that "techtuts" is working on remastering and I will be uploading them here after they are shared on Dime.

As I have mentioned already in previous posts, "techtuts" really knows what he is doing with audio and he has been making some Journey masterpiece remasters and there are more that will be coming soon.  Actually, there are a few I need to get uploaded now that have already been put out.  I'm just running a little behind.

I hope you enjoy the show...

    1. Thanks for the reminder and you bet on the lossless! I've been a little busy and lazy too I guess lately and haven't been uploading much as anyone can see. But it shouldn't be too long before I can find and get that Giuffria up I promised you in the past. Sorry for the delay too :-)
