One More Light Live (CD)

"One More Light Live" – so lautet der Titel eines Albums, das Linkin Park am 15. Dezember mit euch teilen werden. Die Sammlung enthält 16 Mitschnitte von unterschiedlichen Konzerten der diesjährigen Europatour. Es waren die letzten Konzerte mit Chester Bennington, der am 20. Juli aus dem Leben schied. Die Band schreibt in einem persönlichen Statement dazu: „We dedicate this live album to our brother Chester who poured his heart and soul into One More Light. (…) The shows we played together during the early summer of 2017 were extraordinary. Chester shared with us that he felt this was the best tour we had ever done. The camaraderie and joy we experienced on stage reflected our deep connection with each other, with our fans, and  with the music. (…)Chester always took it upon himself to turn the name of the city where we were playing into a first-rate pun. This was our ritual. Best of all, it was a moment to express our gratitude that we were living our dream. (…)Chester was uniquely passionate, uncommonly generous, sensitive, optimistic, funny, and kind. With his voice, he turned pain into catharsis, authenticity into art, and passion into connection. His dedication to bringing  these songs to life was triumphant. For those of you who attended this tour in person, we thank you. For those who could not, we hope this live album gives you a glimpse into how magical these shows were for the six of us.”
