JustDaves Notes:
- Thank you to Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending his vinyl to be encoded!
- Thank you to all the members of The Collective Of Live Music for all the help and support.
Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone on Side A for the DJ to set levels before broadcasting the show, it has not been encoded.
- There are two locked groove show promo beds at the end of Side A. One with a voiceoverby Bill Minkin and one without, they have been encoded and moved to the end of the program.
Known Faults:
- On Side A on the lead in groove there is a dimple that causes loud bumps which are no longer heard after the program starts.
- On Side B during The Cruzados' performance, feel-able scar that causes loud pops throughout "Motorcycle Girl"
- The 2 Pioneer Commercials are marred by some surface noise that could only be lessened not cleared but are listenable.
Editing Notes:
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LPs prior to playback.
- A carbon fiber record brush, then a microfiber disc cleaner was used on the records prior to playback.
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System using distilled water prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable & tone arm balanced: Needle Tracking & Azimuth set: Needle Pressure & Antiskid digitaly set:
- Computer Soundcard stereo field maximized.
- Goldwave set to record while filtering any DC Offset.
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served the situation.
- Raised the volume of the commercials to match that of the music and voice overs.
- A rumble filter with an initial cut off of 50khz and a static steepness of 2 was used to lessen the needle noise on the commercials due to having to raise the volume to match that of the music and voice overs.
- The loud bumps from the known faults section was silenced by a simple fade in.
- The loud pops during The Cruzados' performance of "Motorcycle Girl" were silenced manually.
Other Notes:
- The video of Cruzados performing "Motorcycle Girl" was all I had heard of the band for a long time. Until the early days of the internet and NAPSTER when I was able to download a bunch of their songs.
- Marshall Crenshaw was one of those bands I used to skip out of school to catch live for free at Hart Plaza in Detroit right off the Detroit River waterfront. It was kick ass to see him rise to fame with his music and his portrayal of Buddy Holly in the movie LA BAMBA.
- As far as I can tell neither show has been released. Marshall Crenshaw released a DVD called Live At The Stone Pony but that was recorded at a later date.
- After the break up of The Cruzados lead vocalist Tito Larriva formed Tito And The Tarantula. That band appeared in Quentin Tarentino's From Dusk Till Dawn as the Vampire Band in the bar.
- Summers On The Beach in Fort Lauderdale, Florida was a very popular concert club during the 1980s. From what I can tell from the internet it was a Rock and Heavy Metal Club. The club has a Facebook page with a lot of photos but I couldn't spend enough time going through it to see if there was anything on The Cruzados' gig there which was for a DJ Convention.

I remember getting on the bus one summer afternoon to get to Detroit's Hart Plaza. 101-FM WRIF Detroit's RIFF were holding free concerts at Hart Plaza all summer long. It became an annual thing in the following years. A lot of the shows were local bands, some were nationals with a local band opening. I attended quite a few of them but this day was kind of special. It was a free show with Detroit's own Marshall Crenshaw. Marshall Crenshaw had been popular in the Detroit New Wave Clubs, especially with the Neo-Rockabilly set. I hadn't been able to talk any of my friends into seeing him until the Hart Plaza gig. The man and the band kicked some major ass!! Plain and simple!! It was really cool to see this guy break out of Detroit and end up playing Buddy Holly in La Bamba.
This show was originally broadcast on WLIR-FM but the BBC picked it up for it's syndicated radio show the BBC College Concert. That as they say is how we get here....This is an awesome recording and an awesome show A Must Have!!!

Note that is actually SHORTER than your show....
My list confirms the broadcast date of your show:
March 21 - March 27, 1994 John Hiatt & Marshall Crenshaw. John performs the tunes Memphis In The Meantime, All Alone In The Dark, Thank You Girl, Your Dad Did & Thing Called Love from a Tower Theater in Philadelphia show and Marshall performs the tunes Monday Morning Rock, Whenever You're On My Mind, Cynical Girl, There She Goes Again, Someday Someway, Little Sister & Blues Is King from a Ripley Music Hall show
I note that the Hiatt shows are not the same, but they paired the same artists together...and that Hiatt has moved up at the headliner.
