justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume (more than doubled it). I also re-edited a few track marks. No noise reduction or EQ was used, nor was rimixing done. The DVD had lossy audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320, using Traders Little Helper, aligning on sector boundaries.

Imperial State Electric is yet another project of Nicke Anderson. Since the break up of The Hellacopters, Imperial State Electric and a reformed Entombed are Nick's main focus. Musically if you are a fan of The Hellacopters you'll be a fan of Imperial State Electric. The music is the same, Garage Rock to the core, influenced by the likes of, The MC5, The Rationals, Radio Birdman, The Nomads, The Frost, The Stooges...you get the idea.

This is dedicated to Rocket & Smoker over at Hear Rock City. I downloaded my 1st Hellacopters bootleg from The Original Hear Rock City blog. The Hellacopters Live At Rock Am Ring 2005. A Must Have, which by the way is posted at The New Hear Rock City blog (here). There are also 2 more shows posted on this site from the Hellacopters, Roskilde Festival 2001 (here) and Roskilde Festival 2017 (here) if you haven't downloaded them yet. If you want to check out Entombed I have a great show (here)

For this segment of our Salute To Progressive Rock Bands we have a show from Canadian Rockers Saga. Saga comes from the same musical waters as Kansas, Electric Light Orchestra, Supertramp, Asia, Ambrosia, Styx, Journey before Steve Perry, Phil Collins era Genesis, Trevor Rabin era Yes and many others. A style of Progressive Rock disowned by Prog-Rock Purists and insultingly called Pomp-Rock or Pomp-Prog. Progressive Rock with a distinct lean towards radio airplay and hitting the charts. This was to be done without sacrificing musicianship. A fine line just ask Carl Palmer about Love Beach.

Saga scored a couple Top 20 Singles. "Wind Him Up" hit #7 in Germany, "On The Loose" hit #2 in USA, and "The Flyer" hit #19 in the USA. All 3 of those songs were in heavy rotation on early era MTV. A lot of bands profited from the fact that MTV didn't have a lot of videos to play . Meaning if you had a video it made it on the air. Those 3 videos from Saga made me seek out their albums, which I still listen to (the vinyl yes JD). This tape shows a little age, but is an enjoyable listen. I do have a couple more Saga show that I will be posting in the future.

If you've been following the blog for any bit of time you know Rosebud's Favorite Singer is Geoff Tate formally of Queensrÿche. This recording is from Tate's music project since the big break up. This broadcast was done for his fans who are locked down during the quarantine. It's an acoustic show of Queensrÿche songs. Some of the songs performed were a little surprising. "Bridge" and "Chasing Blue Sky" for instance.

When it comes to this musical debate Rosebud & I both agree. we are a Geoff Tate is the only singer for Queensrÿche camp. We both have heard Todd La Torre impersonate Geoff in the studio. We have heard many bootlegs of the Todd La Torre line-up live. To us it's the same as Journey with Arnel Pineda, Boston with Tommy DeCarlo, or Judas Priest with Tim "Ripper" Owens (to a lesser extent since he brought other influences into the song writing JD). They all hired Tribute Band Singers just like Queensrÿche with Todd La Torre. They are trying to hard to sound like the fan favorite line up is still there (dare I say KISS!! JD).

Deep Purple, after Ian Gillan left hired Glenn Hughes & David Coverdale, neither tried to sound like Ian. When Ozzy Osbourne left Black Sabbath, they hired Ronnie James Dio who did not try to sound like Ozzy. When Dio left Rainbow, Blackmore hired Graham Bonnet, not at all like Dio vocally. These changes took balls. Each band changed a signature sound around a new singers vocal abilities. Not always a winning maneuver, just ask Mötley Crüe & John Corabi. That team up made 1 of Mötley Crüe's best albums, fans said nope. Blaze Bayley did a hell of a job with Iron Maiden, releasing 2 great albums, fans said nope (and Bruce still sings Blaze era tracks live!! JD).

So don't get me wrong Todd La Torre, Arnel Pineda, Tommy DeCarlo & Tim "Ripper" Owens (a Metal God himself damn it!) sing/sang their asses off! They are great at what they do/did, which is what the band wants/wanted them to do, kick ass with someone elses voice. Not easy to do.

As we continue to pay Tribute To Rosebud's Favorite Singers, we have to mention Brad Delp of Boston. Boston would have sounded so different if Brad Delp never sang for them. His voice is just so perfect for the aural assault imagined by Tom Scholz. The "Boston Sound" was layer upon layer of multi-tracked guitars and vocals to give a full and polished studio sound. They sought to recreate this sound on stage. With Tom Scholz's custom built amps & effects they were pretty successful.

I can remember the first time I heard Boston. I came home from school, went to my room to do my home work. I turned on my stereo and hit FM while I looked through my albums for something to say yeah pick me. I grabbed my copy of The Doors 13, a great compilation, and started to put it on when I heard the start of "Foreplay/Long Time". I was blown away to say the least. After hearing the organ in that medley I put away The Doors and threw on Uriah Heep's Greatest Hits. I had to hear Ken Hensley make his organ growl, howl and scream after that. I went out and bought Boston's 1st album with my saved allowance money. I caught them live on the Don't Look Back Tour. They kicked ass live. I can't remember who opened for them either. They were that kind of live band though, so damn good you would forget who ever played with them that night. Rosebud never caught the band live unfortunately, with this show in her collection at least she can hear them!

justdave's notes:
Alleged European only live LP released by Blue Öyster Cult. It's not being sold on the bands website or listed. There is some pretty bad fluctuations in the sound during "Dominance And Submission". The bass goes in and out of the mix, sounding real bad when it comes in. I actually find it hard that this was actually marketed by Blue Öyster Cult. The label says that Sandy Pearlman was Executive Producer and it was released on the Castle Communications label. It sounds like a un-mixed soundboard recording to me. The soundman seems to be having a hard time with mixing the bass through out the recording. I am not saying it is a bad listen, it's not. It's actually a nice listen.

It is also out of print so I figured I would post it here. I have a few more out of print live albums that I will be posting. This is the 1st of a series.
