Been listening to this album like once a week on average since I discovered it a year ago and I’m officially seeing Mr. Takanaka in LA next March… Was fully prepared to never be able to afford to see him before he stopped touring. I literally couldn’t be more excited to hear him play live.😭
For me it's become a daily dose of goblin. Every morning I wake up with the goblins in my head. It's the perfect music for any situation. Whether it be running in the park, studying, or lying in bed pondering the meaning of my existence. The goblins are always there for me. I subscribe to the goblin philosophy.
Check this out, this was the first song what l've heard from Takanaka.... How greate is Mimi's solo from 5:20: ruclips.net/video/jzG8MYgdFoE/видео.html
(43:50) A sweaty young Takanaka is getting ready to perform one of the best songs mankind has ever created. You can see how much this man loves music; he is transpiring and breathing music at this point in the way he feels every chord and every vibration coming out of his guitar (48:15). The way that the orchestra and Takanaka's guitar merge together to make a perfect simphony is just something that no one will ever recreate; this song is the Magnum Opus in the big repertory of Takanaka's music. This is my favorite song ever.
That entire crescendo brings me almost to tears - the utter dedication in that one moment he has, draped in color, painting a delicate and majestic story with his hands, pouring his every effort into it. It’s breathtaking really
@@DavesArchives I second what Mike Bates said. Holy crap! I paused the original upload to find my place in here where I left off! I had no idea there was a live performance of this. It's so good. Thanks for the upload!
Thank you so much for uploading this. I watched it the first time as a young military wife in Japan 🇯🇵 on a VHS tape. I fell in love with the way this young guitarist played. I never knew his name but today I found his name, the story & everything about him. I can now listen to this amazing man play and make the guitar sing!!
Music is the most important thing in my life. When I hear this album I can’t avoid get emotional about the beauty of this whole album. It makes me cry, get high, happy, deep… it’s powerful as f*ck. There’re lots of details on each song, on the melodies, on the arrengements, drums, the intuitive changes so weird but cool at the same time… it’s amusing you EVERY SINGLE SECOND. If you love music you’re going to love this album. It’s one of the best albums I’ve ever heard. God bless you Takanaka.
This concert played on a video loop constantly in the audio department of our PX. Laser Discs just came out and this concert was on a demo disc. MCAS Iwakuni Japan 1985
40 years later, to me this is the ultimate electric guitar opera to ever have been recorded. Takanaka is indeed a genius. After seeing this on laser disc all those years ago I bought the book for my little girl . Thank you for sharing it's glory !
im 38 now but ive seen this video over 30 years ago because my dad has this on betamax. my father has a wide range of eclectic taste in music and i grew up listening to all of it. i attribute my love for a wide genre of music to him.

My cousin introduced me to Masayoshi and since then I have listen to him non stop. Just found this and it is treasure. Don’t think I have heard anything this good before!!!
Drove to work everyday this week playing this record and now I’m happily skipping into my workplace and maybe also going 10 over the speed limit when Seven Goblins starts lmaooo
It's crazy how talented he is, yet I never found out about him until stumbling across it on youtube. Just goes to show that a lot of stuff outside of the mainstream media in the western world will often go unnoticed to western people, no matter how amazing it is. When I asked a few Japanese people on FB they know who he is, but I guess it's like most talent from Japan never gets commonly known to western people, even giant acting superstars like Toshiro Mifune are known to only maybe 1% of people in the west. You really have to go out of your way as a western person to go find different things from other nations, otherwise on the mainstream media in the west they will just be parading around people like Justin Beiber and Miley Cyris doing some autotune singing.
I couldn’t agree more. Even people like django reinhardt, takanaka, and joau bosco went completely unseen by me until I became a musician and began searching for “obscure” music that really doesn’t deserve to be labeled that at all. Even crazier most of my family and close friends except for 2 of them genuinely don’t get how I can listen to something not in english all dismissing it and I genuinely think that narrow view is just how us westerners are brought up. Very ignorant and very self absorbed
@@jareddeltaco6185 Ugh. Same experience here with people in my vicinity. Ignorance and insularity abound. I was brought up to be like that, but luckily I somehow distrusted that way of looking at the world and broke out of it in my late teens/early 20s. Blessed are the true individuals in this world, often not the people conspicuously trying to show the world just how cool and unique they are, but just going about their business in quiet.
My favorite guitarist of ALL TIME! he is originally from Sadistic Mika Band and they were just as amazing. I can’t get over this album though. The sound quality here! 🧡
This must have been such an undertaking to make this kind of concept performance. Especially to perform it with such a flashy and goofy outfit. This could only have been a labor of love, and that makes me happy to watch it all the more.
This production value...I'm blown away! Live....... this? Don't know who mastered it, but to know this was possible in 1981...well, there's no excuse to sound bad today, you'd think.
Much appreciated! I transferred this from a laserdisc using the best equipment possible. I did some black level and sharpness adjustment before exporting to 720p. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
12:57 is probably the best guitar solo I've heard. The entire performance is full of amazing moments but this one, man. The way he climbs up to it and that bend and vibrato after leave me in awe each time. Such precision. This is how a true master plays.
I cannot stop watching this performance. I can confidently say that this man is my favorite musician/artist of all time after pouring over hours and hours of his music and performances on youtube. Nothing short of a creative genius.
I've discovered him about two years ago and I've to say that his music bring back perfectly into the atmosphere what it was when I was born. I don't wanna pass away until I haven't see him in live. It looks like Masayoshi doesn't want to go anywhere as a tour only in Japan 🗾. He was inspired by the beautiful nature in w lovely Seychelles.He gave me a lot during my creation and he's still give me every day. l heard now all of his albums,all of them great because fills up with happiness, good vibrations what we need. l don't know better guitarist on Earth 🌍 than him, and l'm saying that after my favourite Hungarian jazz guitarist called Gabor Szabo r.i.p.
Holy $h!t… I thought, after listening to the studio album daily for about two weeks now, often several times a day, it’s charm was beginning to wear off. Then I find this!!! Now I can appreciate the artistry and skill even more. Seeing it all unfolding live. Takanaka and band, I salute you! Truly astonishing. I would never have imagined a guy in a yellow plastic outfit, with rainbow hair and a rainbow axe, and a band dressed dressed in giant paper maché goblin heads would or could make me so happy. Oh to have been there! But I was in the UK, and only 9 years old. Thanks for sharing this, Dave. Truly awesome ❤️
ive been discovering so much new stuff from him. you should also try the white goblin, its like a counterpart to this album and also has a live version on youtube. its more of an acquired taste than rainbow goblins but if you see it as a darker, grittier, more rock version of rainbow goblins youll love it
I picked this up on cassette in a record store in Italy back in 85. I wore that cassette slap out.It didn't have the narration though. I wish I could get it on CD or digitally. God I miss the whole album.
Fantastic! I discovered the album a week or two back. Ordered a CD (think it came from Japan!), and listened to the album sooo many times. It’s just wonderful. Great to see it done live. And done so well! Pretty bonkers. But so sweet and, well… beautiful. People must think I’m mad when I’m wandering around chanting ‘goberin, goberin, goberin, goberin…’ etc, a big grin on my face!
I'm just sitting here crying tears of joy, in awe that there can be such an upbeat and musically brilliant album such as this out there. Thanks so much for uploading this.
I bought the CD many many years ago at a Dollar Store in Pennsylvania. I liked the Cover photo and having lived in the Far East for 8 years (in the 80's) I was already a fan of Casiopea and the Square. I play the CD a couple of times a year and still enjoy it to this day. Best dollar I ever spent!
Ive found my brethren in the comment section of this video, ive never been able to word how special this album is to me so im so happy to read people putting exactly how i feel into words ❤️
The most memorable part of this performance to me also. I don't know why. I see other commenters with the same opinion. The best song of the album for me. But the rest of the songs and performers are excellent too.
Absolutely love this album. My brother gifted me the book a couple years ago. I have a son on the way, I cant wait to share the story and music with him.

Man this is so rad. The visuals, the outfits, how tight the band is, how locked in Masayoshi is. What a treasure!

I feel you homie, I basically only listen to takanaka nowadays. I'm not american so I'm making the journey to japan this year.
Lucky!

Time for my monthly dose of rainbow goblin

The girl on keys bobbing her head and smiling was the cutest damn thing I've ever seen
Her name is Izumi "Mimi" Kobayashi

@@TheStarclipse the one with YMO is Akiko Yano (Akko). I've almost mistaken them to be the same person too!

The beginning of an astonishing guitar performance
Masayoshi Takanaka is still alive
Mr. Takanaka is energetically doing tours in Japan.
懐かし過ぎる！！！
高校はバス通学だったんだけど下校した後バス停の近くにデパートがあって家電コーナーの大きなブラウン管テレビでこのライブを何度も観てました。
異次元のスーパースターでした。
(43:50) A sweaty young Takanaka is getting ready to perform one of the best songs mankind has ever created. You can see how much this man loves music; he is transpiring and breathing music at this point in the way he feels every chord and every vibration coming out of his guitar (48:15). The way that the orchestra and Takanaka's guitar merge together to make a perfect simphony is just something that no one will ever recreate; this song is the Magnum Opus in the big repertory of Takanaka's music. This is my favorite song ever.
That entire crescendo brings me almost to tears - the utter dedication in that one moment he has, draped in color, painting a delicate and majestic story with his hands, pouring his every effort into it. It’s breathtaking really
81年武道館に見に行ったことが鮮明に思い出される。今見ても色褪せない。まさにワールドクラス。
その昔 レーザディスクが発売された頃 電気店ではこの映像が流されてました。懐かしい。40年も経つのか？（笑）
本邦、我が国の誇り、高中サウンドの魅力を全世界に知らしめる事が可能となったユウチュウブの威力に👏拍手喝采。
I would have loved to see Takanaka and Zappa play together...
The ending part may be the most beautiful thing ever played on a guitar
Do you know if there’s a tutorial anywhere?? Thanks!
I can't believe there's a live, visual performance of this wonderful album. Thank you so so much for uploading it!

The last song always makes me cry, it's too beautiful
高中さんのライブコンサートに初めて行ったのがこの"Rainbow Goblins Story"で、高校二年生の時。
アリーナ席の前から２０列位のほぼど真ん中の席で、最初から最後まで圧倒されて観ていた記憶があります。高中さんとの出会いは”ステレオ音楽館”の合間に流れるCMで、Bule Lagoonをカッコよく弾いていたのを観てでした。
６０歳になった今でも気持ちだけは”ギター少年”、そんなきっかけをくれた高中さんに今でも憧れてます！
懐かしいね。このアルバム中学生の時に買った。今、観てもクオリティ高い！
ウルデリコの絵本も最高🎉

I feel the exact same way man. It is so wonderful to be able to share this experience with others who feel the same.
It's so deliciously intricate yet simple and happy. I like a wide range of music but Takanaka and crew are easily my favorite producers in the world.
There’s no way you weren’t tripping when you wrote this. Acid had some influence in this comment and I know it lol
Hell, mine is
@@elihenley6982 I can genuinely say I feel this exact level of emotion without any influence of drugs. That is why I find it so profound.
Amen, brother. Testify! Takanaka is one awesome dude. And the musicians? It’s just terrific ❤️

インストルメンタル、フュージョン系の音楽ということを抜きにしても
アルバムとしてのトータルバランスは秀逸というか、自分が今まで聞いてきた中で
これ以上の作品はない。これが40年以上前に実現されていたことを今さらながら感嘆し、
素晴らしい時代に高中さんの曲を聞けていたと思うと、これ以上の幸せはなかったですね。
悲しみでしたよね。
同感でございます。いまのZ世代のミュージックフリークたちに観て聴いて感じてほしい。
でもやはりノリが違うから良さは理解できないかもです。
ymoズッパマリの中学の頃(今でもあまりフュージョンは聴きません)、兄貴の影響でたまたま観たこの映像が我が人生最高のライブ映像になろうとは・・。大好きな幸宏さんと同じバンドだったことを知って2度ビックリした記憶があります。

Rainbow Goblins got me through one of the hardest days of my life
Me just now too.
I had a nervous breakdown in January and this concert dragged me out of the darkness. The end is so moving.

My favorite guitarist of ALL TIME! he is originally from Sadistic Mika Band and they were just as amazing. I can’t get over this album though. The sound quality here! 🧡
Yes. And the drummer of Mika Band was Yukihiro Takahashi, who later joined Yellow Magic Orchestra together with Harry Hosono and Ryuichi Sakamoto.
I come to this video every 3 or 4 months, love it. I love Takanaka so much.
this is the stuff that keeps me going and happy to be human
This must have been such an undertaking to make this kind of concept performance. Especially to perform it with such a flashy and goofy outfit. This could only have been a labor of love, and that makes me happy to watch it all the more.
…◆当時、中学生 レーザーディスクでしか見る事出来なく…当然買える訳が無い！LPを擦り切れるまで聞いたよ♪
I can't believe this was preformed live in 1981 at this quality.
ボクの青春であり、ギターを始めたきっかけでもあります！
懐かし過ぎる。。😂
Please never take this down it's my life force

Going through my annual spring obsession with this album!
何百回見たことか！！素晴らしすぎる！！
Yes, it can't be boring, never! :) let's go to Japan 🗾 :)
私もです、何度見ても涙が止まらない!
I heard one album and next thing I knew I bought all his albums along with an electric guitar. I owe a lot to music and especially Takanaka’s music
The 3 dislikes were from rainbow goblins
How Darr yo sayings that! This concert good! No empty!! Me go pi pi in yo koce! Or no empty! Thumbs down is meaning!!!!!
Contrary to popular opinion, goblins love this album. The rainbow got immortalized in this album and can taste the colors anytime they want.
This performance with one of my favorite pieces of art honestly
やっぱり、高中は最高🎉
I try jamming out to this song but end up putting my guitar down because I’m just in awe at this guy’s genius 🤣
It scares me that there are people on earth with the drive to compose a full length album like this.
For reals though can you imagine this guy just picked up his guitar and BAM! We have this gem!
『Plumed Bird』is speeding, thrilling and super technical number❗️😃👍
『You Can Never Come To This Place 』is the highest ballad of him❗️🥹
12:57 is probably the best guitar solo I've heard. The entire performance is full of amazing moments but this one, man. The way he climbs up to it and that bend and vibrato after leave me in awe each time. Such precision. This is how a true master plays.
Me and my 6 year old daughter love this album and love show so much. Thank you Takanaka for everything🎉❤
HIS LOOK! I didn’t think this album could get any more incredible, but these visuals add so much more!
This video is the most beautiful piece of art out there. Nothing tops this performance
This production was the first thing I ever saw on laser disc, an LP-sized precursor to DVD (by about 20 years) and it just knocked my socks off.
Dude when they rocked Thunderstorm with the Goblin masks on, my life suddenly became complete. This is so good it is unreal!

二十歳の頃、新宿スタジオアルタの大スクリーンで、LDの告知として上映されていたのを今でも覚えています。
迫力あったなぁ、通行する人は皆、上を見上げてましたよ。
Wow, what a sacred memory. God bless you and your culture.
Heard this when I was in the Marine Corps in Okinawa in 1982, loved it/smokes, nuff said.
12:25 one of his greatest solos
truer words have never been spoken
insane how good it is
Holy shit that laser lightning at 25:20. Damn I love this album and this is badass
That was very impressive !!
Amazing for 1981!
This guys tone and imagination shown to us through the fretboard are an inspiration and source of happiness if you let it speak to you❤
I'm obsessed with his talent
Escuchando desde #Lima #Peru muy espectacular #Takanaka me gusta mucho Sweet Agnes 💜 and Rose Moon 🌛

Holy $h!t…
I thought, after listening to the studio album daily for about two weeks now, often several times a day, it’s charm was beginning to wear off. Then I find this!!!
Now I can appreciate the artistry and skill even more. Seeing it all unfolding live. Takanaka and band, I salute you! Truly astonishing.
I would never have imagined a guy in a yellow plastic outfit, with rainbow hair and a rainbow axe, and a band dressed dressed in giant paper maché goblin heads would or could make me so happy.

Never had anything evoke this much emotion out of me.
So cool to see that this special album got a special live treatment, he looks amazing with the glitter, rainbow hair and that guitar!
I love that two of my all time favorite artistests made an album about the same Italian children's book

Ive found my brethren in the comment section of this video, ive never been able to word how special this album is to me so im so happy to read people putting exactly how i feel into words ❤️
My goodness, me too. Warms my heart
I'm totally speechless to describe such a stylish show and unbelievable music...
10:26 I love her energy so much, exactly how I feel during the song
her own music is also really good, you should def check it out!! (her name is Izumi Kobayashi)
The most memorable part of this performance to me also. I don't know why. I see other commenters with the same opinion. The best song of the album for me. But the rest of the songs and performers are excellent too.

Absolutely love this album. My brother gifted me the book a couple years ago. I have a son on the way, I cant wait to share the story and music with him.
put to listen on the belly of your wife!!!
A rainbow turned into audio, truly magical.
This and the Studio Ghibli 25 Years Concert by Joe Hisaishi are the two shows at the Budokan that I wish I was there for. Truly magical nights.

よく左手が壊れないな、というくらい凄い演奏。こういう人に何か賞はありませんかね。ノーベル音楽賞ってないし。
Probably one of the best live music performances ever. Takanaka is a god.
13:46 makes me cry tears of joy.
You can never come to this place.
One of the greatest pieces of music ever written. I dare you to disagree.
I disagree but it’s awesome
