Documenting the Pop Phase Live: Lazy’s ‘Lazy Live’ (RVL-7048)
Revisiting the early days of the band Lazy, today we focus again on their live album, “Lazy Live,” released via RCA with the catalog number RVL-7048.
Likely dating from the late 1970s, this 12-inch vinyl LP provides a sonic snapshot of the band performing during their initial pop-idol phase.
While the core members harbored a love for hard rock, their early career under RCA emphasized accessible pop-rock and Kayōkyoku sounds. “Lazy Live” captures this specific era in a concert setting. The album likely features enthusiastic performances of their chart hits from the time, delivered with the energy expected of a live show aimed at a young fanbase.
Although the musical style differs greatly from the heavy metal the band’s key members would later pioneer, “Lazy Live” holds undeniable historical interest. It offers a rare audio document of future metal legends performing within the constraints and style of mainstream pop music. RVL-7048 allows listeners to hear the nascent stage presence and musicianship of these iconic figures in a completely different context, making it a fascinating piece for tracing their complete musical journey.
