Uploader Original Notes:

-includes: 15 pages Cuesheet scan (cuesheets scan.pdf)
-All commercial removed
-All sides (36 segements) joined/crossfaded

I promised some nice stuff. This is the Pre-FM to the whole broadcast. I covers all three days of the festival. It of course is not the complete festival but a nice representation of it. This is a raw transfer all the uploader did to it was cross fade all original fade outs to make a continuous listening experience.

Triumph, Quiet Riot & Judas Priest have released their respective US Festival sets on both DVD and CD so their contributions to this disc set have been omitted.

The extent of Heavy Metal's ascendancy as a musical force became apparent on May 29, 1983 in Devore California. Until then, Metal Heads were gathered in the underground plotting our world conquest. Hated by the critics and shunned by major radio, Heavy Metal gained acceptance by the shear power of its fans. But on May 29, 1983, the world had no choice but to take notice - Heavy Metal had arrived on its own terms.

The numbers don't lie, Saturday's Show with Flock Of Seagulls, INXS, Men At Work, & The Clash drew nearly 300,000. Monday's show with David Bowie, U2, & The Pretenders drew roughly the same numbers. Sunday's Heavy Metal Day drew over 600,000 Headbangers. The critics had to pull their feet out of their mouths as the above named darlings of the music press were out shined by a bunch of guys in leather and studs!

Throughout its history, Heavy Metal was looked down upon by the music press. The fans were regarded as Stoners who couldn't understand what real music was. All the while Metal Heads knew the truth, that real music is what you feel and we didn't need some guy in a skinny tie telling us what was real. A quote by David Lee Roth used to hang on my wall when I was a teenager it said "... You know why all the critics like Elvis Costello, they all look like him!!"

Don't get me wrong I love all styles of music, Elvis Costello is a great songwriter, but in those days before Heavy Metal became accepted as a viable genre, as a fan standing against the critical tide with your fist in the air, it was a daily fight to keep your cool when some skinny tie new waver claimed The Knack were better than Black Sabbath.
