Live in Japan 1984 is a live album by guitarist Allan Holdsworth that was released by Manifesto Records in 2018.
The first thousand copies of this CD were released with a DVD of the performance filmed for Japanese television, which also includes clips of an interview with Holdsworth. This was originally released as Allan Holdsworth in Japan – Tokyo Dream on LaserDisc in 1984 by Toei Video.
All About Jazz awarded the album with 4.5 out of 5 stars. The review by John Kelman states: "With wonderfully remastered audio and, for those first thousand, a revelatory video as well, the official release of Live in Japan 1984 may well be long overdue".
Andy Robson of Jazzwise wrote: "All the swells, sighs and tapping are there, and those cascading chromatic runs starburst everywhere, but as Holdsworth's bent was soon to change, they're all the more appreciated."
Music Connections Eric Harabadian commented: "This is an historic document, not only because it was the last live set by I.O.U. but, because it was broadcast on Japanese TV, the production value and sound quality are excellent."
