The LP box commemorating the 45th anniversary of Bob Dylan's first concert in Japan is finally available!

Bob Dylan's first concert in Japan took place in February and March of 1978. The recordings from these two days were released as the album Budokan in November of the same year, which was later officially released worldwide. In 2007, the master tapes were discovered. After lengthy negotiations, the album was finally released 45 years after the initial visit to Japan.

Those involved at the time reunited for the project, with Heckel Kanno, who planned the original Budokan concert in 1978, serving as the overall supervisor. The engineer who recorded the album at that time created 2023 remixes from 24-channel multi-tapes, and the artwork was designed by the same artist as before. The album was commercialized as a Japan-led project.

The album contains 36 tracks across eight previously unreleased LPs, featuring complete live recordings from the band's first visit to Japan. It also includes memorabilia such as tickets, pamphlets, posters, and flyers. Additionally, there is a 60-page color photo book with live photos from the airport, press conferences, and Japan shows, as well as off-shoots and liners. The Japanese booklet contains commentary, testimonies, secret stories from those involved, and lyrics with bilingual translation.

This boxed set is a limited edition LP size reissue project of Western music performed in Japan. It is a rare release that will be available worldwide.
