Summary: REAL CONCERT, REAL MUSIC!
Review: All I Can say is "WOW!" Whoever produced "Heading For The East" really knew what they were doing. Cool strobing images and interviews intertwined with a stunning musical display by Kai Hansen and company. Par none the best DVD concert I have purchased so far! (I'd say a notch better than Helloween's "High Live.") The band's enthusiam and banter with the Japanese crowd is extraordinary. Ralf Scheepers. This dude continues to impress me with his vocal prowess. I was so excited to get this DVD because of 2 reasons- I had never seen Gamma Ray perform live and I wanted to see how good of a performer Ralf is. He is scintillating. The energy level throughout the concert is high and the band actually SMILES while playing some damn good Eurometal. Of course there's the crowd sing-along part, obligatory in any legit metal show- but this one is actually cool! Very upbeat and alive. The music is colors- swirling, bouncing every which way, space bound, Earth bound, alive! Gamma Ray should be revered, not passed over! Although the concert was from 1990, the music is about 10 years ahead of its time. Amazing musicians in an amazing atmosphere of love, peace, and hope!- David J Newman 2003

Summary: The editor was on crack
Review: I'm not sure what the editor was thinking, but there's way too much cutting away in this vid... (and cutting away to really boring stuff... it takes away from the "live"-ness of the performance.) The only thing I can think of is that they heavily over-dubbed the guitar parts and they weren't matching... and cutting off "Ride the Sky" for boring footage of Japan is inexcusable.

I do not like the old singer much. I was wishing for more of Hansen's singing. Interesting to watch only for the rest of the band.

Summary: Kai Hansen y Gamma Ray Sucesores de Helloween¡¡¡¡
Review: Primeramente obtuve una copia (vhs)de este video, que la verdad estaba bastante deteriorada,,,pero cuando vi el lanzamiento en formato DVD no dude en comprarla...
Kai Hansen y sus muchachos muestran una perfomance extraordinaria en este video filmado en Japon (1990), en la gira del disco debut del grupo "Heading For Tomorrow"...
Temas como "Heaven Can Wait" "Space Eater" "Heading For Tomorrow" muestran claramente quien se llevo la genialidad del grupo Helloween....
Ralf Scheepers (Ahora en Primal Fear) esta realmente muy afinado y demuestra que es uno de los mejores cantantes de metal
Si eres Fan del metal melodico Tipo Helloween, debes comprar este DVD y disfruta de Gamma Ray, uno de los mayores grupos del metal actual
Temas :
- Lust For Life
- Heaven Can Wait
- Space Eater
- Free Time
- The Silence
- I Want Out
- Save Us
- Ride The Sky (Kai voces)
- Hold Your Ground
- Money
- Who Do You Think You Are
- Heading For Tomorrow
