Liner Notes

Live album recorded at Nippon Budokan, Tokyo, Japan on 12 & 13 December 1983. After Service is the second live album by Yellow Magic Orchestra, directly following their (at the time) final studio album, Service. The album features former ABC member David Palmer on additional drums. A film version was released alongside the album. After Service features "Kageki na Shukujo" (過激な淑女, "Radical Lady"), which was released in a studio version as a single, but does not feature on any of their albums (compilations excepted). Prior to 1998, CD releases of the album edited the material to fit it on one disc, consequently cutting down the runtime from nearly 83 minutes to just 71: several tracks have their runtimes changed, while "Focus", "Kai-Koh", and "See-Through" are cut outright. In 1992, After Service was expanded and remixed by Brian Eno under the title [[master:286705]]. Reissues since 1998 include the entire double-LP version on two discs, though at the cost of Complete Service going out of print.
