Tokyo Road - Best Of - Mini Disc Live.
 

I have bought this japanese best of called 'Tokyo Road'. It comes with a 3" inch mini disc that contains 4 live songs.

See here: https://www.discogs.com/Bon-Jovi-Tok...elease/2018587

I'm sure many of you are familiar with it.

My question is:
Do you know when/where these songs were recorded? Would love to know.

Thanks.

Tokyo Road - Live Tokyo 1985
Not Fade Away - Live London 1997
Next 100 Years - Live Canada 2000
Father Time - Live San Diego 1991

Tokyo Toad - Best Of - Mini Disc Live.
 

Discogs are really weird how they allow some bootlegs but not others.
Cool find.
I used to have a portable recordable minidisc player around 1998ish. It was pretty cool little device.
The first thing I ever bought on eBay was 20 blank minidiscs in 2002ish - long before PayPal and you had to send a cheque off.
I even bought the Cd and minidisc stereo unit that allowed to you to record CDs to minidisc and it had a wheel in the middle that you used to name the tracks on the minidisc so it showed when the track was played. Looked a bit like the pic below.
Then in 2003 I got an iPod and sold everything minidisc related.

This isn't a bootleg. Official compilation released in Japan only.

By Mini Disc he means a small CD, not an actual Mini Disc. It's a 3" 4 track CD.

Ah right.
I had one of those i think it was an Aerosmith cd single.

Thanks for clarification folks.

Where do you have this info from?

I'm sure only about Father Time being from Nov 16, 1991 show. London June 12, 1997 for Jon's solo song would be an obvious choice as all the other released live songs are from there but is there any proof?
Next 100 Years from Canada? Only because IML and TYFLM exist from the Toronto Nov 27, 2000 show?
Tokyo Road sounds like the one from Tokyo April 28, 1985. The other circulated on various releases is from Rio 1990 and that's not this one.

I'm fairly certain the dates for it are on the booket/front of the disc. I have mine stashed away somewhere, I'll give a look tomorrow. Pretty N1Y is Toronto, 2000 though.

Well, they aren't :) I'm looking at it now. It only says "live version" plus that the two are from their solo tours.

There is no Toronto 2000 bootleg so there's no comparison and it'd be very hard to compare anyway, maybe by those "thank yous" at the end.

Oh damn! hmm where did I see those dates posted. I might just be imagining things now.

Isn't this the same show?

I need to correct myself too. There is a video bootleg and therefore only an mp3 audio of the Toronto show. And Next 100 Years is from there:

Yep, you must have edited your post when I was typing mine :)

This could be where Not Fade Away is from.

EDIT: But it's not. The "hey" before the song finally starts to rock is different.

How do you embed a video here?

Simply copy and paste the link as you just did [emoji12]
I wouldn't rule the song out as being mainly from London. We all know Obie liked to mash things together. But have you checked Paris?

Aloha !

No, because that live version of Next 100 Years was released on one of singles for Wanted Dead Or Alive in 2001 as well. Not Fade Away isn't from London or Paris either but from Hamburg 1997.

Tried that and failed :D
Cool, thanks a lot! That's what I love about this board, all the knowledge (hidden among tons of petty fighting) :D

It sucks on one hand when they recycle the songs as b-sides and on bonus discs, but it helps now when you want to find someting.

So it was Hamburg, I thought it was London.

Agreed. I thought the only official releases from Toronto 2000 were IML and Just Older from the live album, Lay Your Hands On Me from the One Wild Night single (Although I believe that the intro is edited in from another show?) and the above version of Next 100 Years?

I remember that a video of TYFLM was on YouTube.

Here:

That TYFLM video was shown in the Japanese WOWOW TV special.
