 Запись концерта Диккинсона и Ко в Сан - Паулу., причем не полная. На гитарах - Адриан Смит и Рой Зи,
на басу - Касильяс, на барабанах- Ингрэхэм, короче, состав, с которым Брюс записал своих два последнх студийных альбома. На 90% диск состоит из вещей с Chemical Wedding и Accident of Birth, лишь 2 вещи с Balls to Picasso. Примечательно, что со Skunkworks нет ни одного трека. Отлабали ребята на пять с плюсом, а Брюс, похоже , после невнятных Мэйденовских вонцертов 92 года обрел второе дыхание, тут он во всей мощи.
Минусы:
1. Качество записи - барабаны звучат глуховато, а бас не так четко и звонко прописан, как на студийных треках.
2. Ноль импровизации- лишь на 1-2 треках есть незначительные оличия от альбомных версий, но может не стоит играть все по нотам.
3. Малая продолжительеость-67 минут- а концертик-то явно урезали до формата 1 CD, непорядок. |

At the trumpets of Jericho, still the walls remain
At the trumpets of Jericho, Avalon's in chains
This is the river of space
This is the river of time
Chase the dragons of infinity
Atlas stands and laughs
Throws his burden down
Rolls the earth in the inferno...
What heavy burden holds me back
Every step along the track?
Fear that reaches deep inside of me
At the trumpets of Jericho, still the walls remain
Blow the trumpets of Jericho, still the walls remain
At the end of the rainbow, there the grail remains
Sound the trumpets of Jericho, Avalon's in chains...
As they drag you down, In your clothes of lead
See the golden light, Flashing overhead
Mocking you, ha ha ha ha ha ha...
Do you know who you are
In your robes of skin?
How many creatures live inside you?
Man is born forever free
But is everywhere in chains
Trapped inside this earthly prison cell...
At the trumpets of Jericho, still the walls remain
At the trumpets of Jericho, Avalon's in chains
At the trumpets of Jericho, there the grail remains
At the trumpets of Jericho
Still the walls remain [x4]
The silence of the tomb...
The wheel of fortune round...
(yea-eah)
2. King In Crimson
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z]
In the darkness, the raven's head
In the courtyard, clothed in fear
I see gates that are opening
There's only one way out of here
Daylight has gone
The night has come...
See his twisted sons and daughters
Writhing slowly in Satan's mire
If you only could see the visions
The trembling world I now despise
As the veil reveals the outer darkness
I am sucked into the halls of flame...
[CHORUS:]
Arise, awake, The king in crimson comes
Arise, awake, The king in crimson, crimson comes
He knows the weakness that you can't fight
The stone of night that weighs you down
If you only could see the visions
His hand is death if you take it now
As you scream into the web of silence
There is nothing that can save you now...
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
As you scream into the web of silence
There is nothing that can save you now...
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
To your window I come
At your window I come
3. Chemical Wedding
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z]
How happy is the human soul
Not enslaved by dull control
Left to dream and roam and play
Shed the guilt of former days
Walking on the foggy shore
Watch the waves come rolling home
Through the veil of pale moonlight
My shadow stretches out its hand...
[CHORUS:]
And so we lay, we lay in the same grave
Our chemical wedding day
[x2]
Floating in the endless blue
My seed of doubt I leave to you
Let it wither on the ground
Treat it like a plague you found
All my dreams that were outside
In living colour, now alive
And all the lighthouses
Their beams converge to guide me home...
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
[SOLO]
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
4. Gates Of Urizen
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z]
As above, so below
All things come from the one
Now you are the victim
Carried by the wind, rooted in the ground
If you want to learn the secrets
Close your eyes...
The ladder falls away
At the gates of Urizen, fallen eagles blaze
At the gates of Urizen, eternal twins are damned
At the gates of Urizen, separate lives begin...
In every woman is a man
From the moon come silver ghosts
Spectres of the blood
From my spirit comes the darkness
From the void, the crimson fortress rises...
[CHORUS:]
At the gates of Urizen, the ladder falls away
At the gates of Urizen, fallen eagles blaze
At the gates of Urizen, eternal twins are damned
At the gates of Urizen, separate lives begin...
[SOLO]
[REPEAT CHORUS]
The gates of Urizen [x3]
At the gates...
5. Killing Floor
[B. Dickinson / A. Smith]
So this is dreamtime, and all is quiet
So this is dreamtime, and all is night
You've never been held by the hand of god
Who's rocking the cradle, if he is not?
He turned the oil into his blood
Panzer divisions burning in in the mud
The stain of freedom - he's washed it out
Who's rocking the cradle - I have no doubt
Sleeping eyes awake
To see his hooded gaze
Whispers on the wind
The darker side of ecstasy
Satan - has left his killing floor
Satan - has left his killing floor
Satan - hellfires burn no more
Satan - has left his killing floor
[SOLO]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [x4]
So now it's dreamtime for you tonight
So now it's dreamtime, and all is quiet
You've never been held by the hand of god
Who's rocking your cradle, if he is not?
Sleeping eyes awake
To see his hooded gaze
Whispers on the wind
The never-ending breath goodbye
Satan - has left his killing floor
Satan - has left his killing floor
Satan - his fires burn no more
Satan - is coming back for more
Satan - has left his killing floor [x2]
6. Book Of Thel
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z / E. Casillas]
The mark is on you now
The furnace sealed inside your head
Melting from the inside now
Waxy tears run down your face
The whore that never told her tale
Relives it every night with you
Far off stands the lamb and waits
For the wolf to come and end its life
[CHORUS I:]
Stand inside the temple as the book of Thel is opening
The priestess stands before you, offering her hand out, she's rising
Come the dawning of the dead
In famine and in war
Now the harlot womb of death
Spits out its rotten core
Serpent on the altar now
Has wrapped itself around your spine
So you look into its mouth
And you kiss the pearly fangs divine
Happy that your end is swift
The weeping virgin cries in bliss
The snake and priestess, they are one
The veil of flesh is ripped undone
[REPEAT CHORUS I]
[CHORUS II:]
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
And when sleep takes you tonight
Will you wake to see the light...?
[SOLO]
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [x4]
The burning sweat of poison tears
The river flowing red with blood
The cradle-robbing hand of death
Caresses every dreaming head
Waiting for the marriage hearse
To take you to the funeral pyre
So you burn the family tree
The generations burning higher
[REPEAT CHORUS I:]
[REPEAT CHORUS II:]
By the dawning of the dead [x4]
[Spoken:]
What demon hath formed this abominable void...
This soul-shuddering vacuum?
Some said it is Urizen -
But unknown, abstracted, brooding secret
The dark power hid
7. Tears Of The Dragon
[B. Dickinson]
For too long now
There were secrets in my mind
For too long now
There were things I should have said
In the darkness, I was stumbling for the door
To find a reason, to find the time, the place, the hour
Waiting for the winter sun, and the cold light of day
The misty ghosts of childhood fears
The pressure is building and I can't stay away
[CHORUS:]
I throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear, I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
Where I was
I had wings that couldn't fly
Where I was
I had tears I couldn't cry
My emotions frozen in an icy lake
I couldn't feel them until the ice began to break
I have no prayer over this, you know I'm afraid
The walls I built are crumbling away
The water is moving, I'm slipping away
[REPEAT CHORUS]
[SOLO]
Slowly I awake
Slowly I rise
The walls I built are crumbling away
The water is moving, I'm slipping away
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
8. Laughing In The Hiding Bush
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z / A. Dickinson]
There's a sinister game that children play...Hey...Hey
When they get to the end of each schoolday...Hey...Hey
They spend their lives getting ready for the kill...
[CHORUS:]
Laughing in the hiding bush
The joker is back
Laughing in the hiding bush
The joker is back
Who remembers the names of fallen heroes aha aha?
Who remembers today to fly their flag?
I couldn't say I loved you like I did before...Ha!
Laughing in the hiding bush
The joker is back
Laughing in the hiding bush
It's the laughing attack
The joker is back
He's wild in the pack
The joker is back
Laughing in the hiding... gonna kick him in the bush, yeah
[SOLO]
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
9. Accident Of Birth
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z]
Journey back to the darkside, back into the womb
back to where the spirits move like vapour from the tomb
The centre of the cyclone blowing out the sun
break the shackles of your union to the light
I might've had a brother, a service board, they dragged him under
to the other side of twilight, he's waiting for me now
Nativity was lost on me, I didn't ask, I couldn't see
What created me, what and where and how
[CHORUS:]
Welcome home, It's been too long, we've missed you
Welcome home, we've opened up the gates
Welcome home, to your brothers and sisters
Welcome home, to an accident of birth
Feel our bodies breathing as you try to stop believing
There's nothing you can do about your shadow
You can fight us, you are like us and your body will betray you
Lay down and die like all the others
Where are the angels and their wings of freedom?
Jesus had his day off when they pulled you through
[REPEAT CHORUS]
To an accidental birth
[SOLO]
Visions growing dim as the daylight fades away
I'm spinning, twisting, black, well, It's your dying day
[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]
10. The Tower
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z]
There are twelve commandments
There are twelve divisions
Twelve are the pagans who have mapped the sky
In the outer circle
To the inner sanctum
From the octave at the end of time
The fountain, the trinity
The pilgrim is searching for blood
(searching for his blood)
To look for his own free will
The stone of infinity, washed in the flood
[CHORUS:]
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, and the hanged man smiles
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, let the fool decide
In the atom circle
Where we break the stars
Hammer into anvil, stuffing out the sun
Witness all the killing
See the birth of Mars
Our religion thrown into the fire
[REPEAT BRIDGE:]
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, the hanged man smiles
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, the magician laughs
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, and the priestess kneels
(priestess kneels)
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, let the fool decide
[REPEAT CHORUS]
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, the priestess kneels to receive
Lovers in the tower
The moon and sun divided, the magician laughs
11. Dark Side Of Aquarius
[B. Dickinson / Roy Z]
The first hellrider came on wings a-plenty in the dark
Hauled out his poison and they blew away his mark
The fascist from the east is coming, mothers hide your sons
The second hellrider came from flaming seas and molten sands
Half is played in Hell's commands
Hauled out his poison with his promises of promised lands
Glad, good times of lying leaders
Here comes the riders as the wheel of time is running out of time [x2]
The third hellrider came teaching brothers to kill brother man
And the fourth hellrider waits on an acid trail for an acid world
Walls of old religions' fools and superstitious men
Throw some scary tarot cards and...
Here comes the riders as the wheel of time is running out of time
Here comes the riders as the revolution's stepping out to light
the dark aside of Aquarius has robbed us of our souls and minds
Here comes the riders as the wheel of time is running out of time
[SOLO]
From the starlit sky on the silver sea
a lonely silver surfer comes to push the wheel for me
[x2]
Gotta move, gotta move, gotta move that wheel around [x3]
Gotta push the wheel of time around [x4]
I've gotta move the wheel of torment [x3]
move that wheel around
Gotta move the wheel of time, I've [x3]
round
12. The Road To Hell
[B. Dickinson / A. Smith]
Slowly bleeding whilst the vortex feeding
like a swirling vulture on your face
Every hour the unseen rays devour
your screaming eyes cry out but they are blind
Father forgive me my sins
give me the nails, I'll hammer them in
[CHORUS:]
The road to hell is full of good intentions
Say farewell, we may never meet again
The road to hell is full of good intentions
Drive the left side highway with no sinister regrets
Brave new world of secret fantasy
that hovers just beyond your bloody grasp
Close enough to thrill the danger of the kill
price for failure of your will
Father forgive me my sins
cause we are the junkies who never can win
[REPEAT CHORUS]
[SOLO]
Father forgive me my sins
give me the nails, I'll hammer them in
Father forgive me my sins
cause we are the junkies who never can win
[REPEAT CHORUS]
