Been a little while since I posted any Jethro Tull. Also if you couldn't tell by the last couple of posts I was in a Classic Rock era state of mind this week. I have been editing some very heavy Heavy Metal boots so I was in the mood for something a little less. Another thing, this is some great Jethro Tull!!! In an hour and fifteen minutes they only play 5 songs!! Lots of great jamming here! Even though it's not one of there preferred genres, both Rosebud and Spider approve this post for the performance! It sounds pretty good too. From what I understand this has been remastered from a very low generation tape. I do know Tull fans are really gonna like it!

Uploader's Mastering Notes:
One of my early live radio recordings and it had some issues (the Fisher receiver and my FM reception). A 60Hz hum and a high pitch tone at 8.1 KHz were removed with iZotope RX4A. Removing the 8.1 KHz tone makes this very nice sounding. Some dropouts were repaired by pasting the opposite channel over the defect.

I just love Linda Ronstadt's voice. She sings more beautiful than she looks, and that my friends is saying a lot! I am not going to dwell on her looks too long but will say a little more. Do you remember her iconic photo, singing in the cub scout uniform. Yeah Madonna you owe Linda Ronstadt money! You wouldn't be able to walk around singing "Like A Virgin" in a pointy bra and stockings if not for Linda Ronstadt crooning "Blue Bayou" in a cub scout uniform.

On to her voice which is the inner beauty of this woman. Like another beautiful woman & voice (Pat Benetar) Linda Ronstadt has a multi octave range, contralto to soprano. When I went over to my guitar players house to talk music for the first time I was surprised by his extensive Linda Ronstadt album collection. He said to me "Dave if I could convince Linda Ronstadt to sing Thrash Metal, you're out of a job! Her or Ian Gillan" I told him I would bow out gracefully and buy every album! Linda never sang Thrash but she sang Country, Country Rock (California Sound), Punk, Rock, Broadway, Jazz, Mariachi and more.

Viva Les Bootlegs Original Notes:
This CD came out in 2000 on the Tarantura 2000 label out of Tokyo. It's a version the famous Zeppelin release 'Pb' or 'Pure Blues' which has been released many many times on vinyl and CD. There have been many debated regarding where the original source came from, one theory is that it was a radio broadcast, the other is that it is a raw soundboard tape
The big difference with this release is that it's the first time a TAPE source has been located and used. All previous releases have come from vinyl sources. The producers of this release acquired a 2nd gen tape from an American collector who had the tape stored away since 1983. It was then speed corrected and 32-bit Re-Mastered by CoolMixMan aka Blackdog.

I downloaded this show from a gone but not forgotten blog called Viva Les Bootlegs. Viva Les Bootlegs had a nice variety of artists like The New JDP. Now this bootleg is not really the best copy of the Vancouver B.C. show but has a soft spot in my heart. It was one of the first bootlegs I downloaded from the internet. Back in the early 1990s, it was on a dial-up connection and was MP3 192kbps. It took a full day to download (ah the good ole days of the internet). Now some people complain if a download takes an hour. Thankfully it won't take you that long to download this one. The free down loaders get around 1MB per second (or something like that anyway). So you'll be able to enjoy this one a lot quicker.

Well here is another of the Mike Millard Masters & 1st Generation Cassettes being released by JEMS. This time everybody's favorite working men Rush. This was during the transitional period where shorter songs and keyboards started taking over the Rush machine. The older songs would start to be relegated to a couple medleys for a time.

The  addition of Geddy Lee's keyboards and peddles just added to the spectacle of Rush. A band that by this time in their live career they didn't make perceptible mistakes during a performance. You have to watch the big screen to catch the hints of a mistake. Neil Peart would scratch his head really quick if he thought he made a clunker. Alex Lifeson kept his head down if he made a mistake but Geddy Lee would laugh. If Geddy Lee made what he thought was a goof he would throw his head back and smile. All the while the bad note or drum hit wasn't noticed by the mass of fans in front of them. At least this was my take away from Rush live. I'll tell you, and I don't want to come off preachy, since I stopped partying hard at shows I enjoy them more. I notice more and remember more. I went to see Emerson, Lake & Palmer opening for Jethro Tull at Pine Knob with my friends. My buddy Joe raved about Jethro Tulls set. I had to remind him that he passed out after E.L.P.'s 3rd song. We left him sleeping on the hill till it was time to leave. He said "Really?" LOL!!! Enjoy the music!!

So you can grab what you might want without having to wait for me to get around to posting it. I have over 40TB of bootlegs and just had to add another 20TB drive which already has 5TB on it...meaning I have a lot of stuff to choose from so it might take a while before you get what you want...Enjoy the Live Petty!!

justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume and fix a few drop outs. No EQ or noise reduction was used. The DVD had lossy audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps.

A nice recording from The Special Forces Tour. Special Forces was the only early 1980's album that Alice toured to promote. Alice Cooper wouldn't tour again until The Nightmare Returns Tour in 1986.

Downloaded this from The LPLive Archive at lplive.net. They have what they think is every Linkin Park bootleg released. I don't know if it's true but they have a lot of stuff (I recommend it for all fanatics). This is one of the first soundboard recordings to surface by Linkin Park. It is a DVD audio rip from a DVD that had lossy audio so hence the MP3 format. The first known lossless recording of Linkin Park to surface was an audience recording from an October 03, 2000 concert in Des Moines, Iowa, US.

Now this recording was actually filmed by the band for a possible music video. The footage was never used. The band actually is really nervous and makes a lot of mistakes during the show. My son Spider is a huge fan and knew Chester personally (Spider worked at The Place Of Auburn Hills as guest hospitality he met a lot of musicians. I've heard some stories) Chester told him the film was too embarrassing because they blew their big Roxy debut. When I played this for Spider he said I had to post it...So this is a Spider approved post, Enjoy my friends!!

Wow! Can you believe it's time for Sunday Morning Jazz already. I don't know about you but I have had a busy week and I am ready to listen to some Jazz, sip my coffee, and watch the wind dance through the trees in my backyard.

What a show, what a recording the Legendary Mike Millard recorded the Legendary Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock! I really shouldn't have to say anything more but I am going to. This recording can be called soundboard quality! It is one of Mike MIllard's best recordings by far. That is saying a lot, but since it was such a laid back atmosphere Mike Millard was able to make a great audio capture. The audience never steps on the sound of the performance at all. The soundboard man had an awesome mix, everything presented on the stage is clearly heard. The performance is everything you would expect from two of the best keyboardists in Jazz...Enjoy the show my friends!
