Osaka, Japan, 21st February, 1995:

- Obviously, the whole band is on FIRE and sounding like they are having a good time which is always a good thing.

- The first time 'I Got Shit' played live (I think?) and not only that but it kicks ASS (especially Mike's amazing solo at the end! :cool: )

- All of the 94/95 tour versions of 'Blood' are amazing, but in my opinion this is a contender for the best as they usually let the guitars squeal out the ending into a cacophony of feedback but in this show they all drop out and Ed starts a brilliant vocal (improv?) and the band gradually work their way back in. Awesome.

- The fastest 'Sonic Reducer' I've heard yet, and a superb version of 'Satans Bed' that possibly rivals Atlanta '94.

- THE PROPER INTRO TO 'GO'!!!!!!!! (or as near as damnit I've ever heard!)

- THE 'CATHOLIC BOY' TAG in the SUPERB 'Porch'!!!!

Just a few of the reasons I think this show deserves a lot more recognition :)

    great show, cant believe I've been listening to it for 13 years now, makes me feel old.

    it's nearly impossible to find a "bad" show by this band from 1993 to 1996.
    Found: Soundgarden Hyde Park DVD (Thank you for the gift!)
