It's with a heavy heart that I make this post in tribute to Joe Cocker who lost his battle with lung cancer December 22, 2014 at the age of 70. Joe Cocker's music is very important to Rosebud and I. I sang "You Are So Beautiful" to her the night I proposed. If you have been around The New JDP since the beginning you might remember from an earlier post that I proposed to Rosebud at a Black Sabbath/Pantera show. Well I was a little more romantic once we got home from that concert. I turned on a karaoke tape of "You Are So Beautiful", sang the song and went down on one knee.

A nice acoustic performance from the master of song interpretation. I got to see Joe Cocker a few times. The most memorable for me was when I saw Joe Cocker & Stevie Ray Vaughan at Pine Knob together. Stevie opened up the show and played his normal set. Joe Cocker followed and played a stellar headlining set. For the encore prayers were answered and Stevie Ray Vaughan came out and jammed with Joe Cocker and his band. I am so glad that I actually was able to see those awe inspiring sets. Rest in peace Joe, Rock & Roll Never Forgets!

Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter met and married in 1969. Jessi had a career in Nashville as a songwriter under the name of  Miriam Eddy. After marrying Waylon she changed her name to Jessi Colter and signed to RCA Records as a solo artist. Waylon & Jessi had one son Waylon Albright "Shooter" Jennings. Waylon took time off the road in 1997 to be with his family, and earn a GED diploma to set an example for his son about the importance of education. Shooter ended up a musician any way. We lost Waylon Jennings on February 13, 2002. Waylon died in his sleep from complications from his diabetes, he was 64.

Metallica on the ill fated tour to promote Master Of Puppets, their third studio release. I got to see Metallica on this tour supporting Ozzy Osbourne at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. There is a bootleg DVD of this gig floating around, part of which is included on Cliff'em All, Metallica's first home video release. The sound check and set up was taking long and the doors were opened a little late. The crowd outside started chanting "Let's Go Damn It!" and pushed the barricades into the street blocking traffic. The doors were opened and as I entered the main floor area I noticed the chairs were not even set up. The crew was still setting up the barricade in front of the stage, as well. The crowd started chanting for Metallica and soon the group was on. A mosh pit stated which surprised the Joe Louis Arena security who had Metallica stop the show. The front barricade was moved back another 3 feet and the concert started again. When Ozzy came on after Metallica the barricade was moved back another 3 feet by security. You have to remember Metallica was one of the first Thrash/Speed Metal bands to play such an arena, most of their piers were still playing clubs. The security for Joe Louis Arena had no idea what to expect, such shows are common place now. Metallica along with Anthrax and Slayer lead the underground, extreme at the time Metal bands out of the underground to the commercial masses. We lost Cliff Burton on September 27, 1986 in Dörarp, Sweden when the bands tour bus lost control and flipped multiple times. While James, Kirk, and Lars sustained only minor injuries, Cliff Burton was killed when the bus landed on top of him, he was 24.

This is a great performance from Ray Charles and a nice sounding recording, too. This wasn't a very good time period for Ray when it came to commercial success, his record sales and air play declined dramatically. One bright moment came in April of 1979, when Ray's version of "Georgia On My Mind" was made the official state song for the state of Georgia. I was lucky enough to catch Ray Charles on tour a few short years before his death. He said it was his birthday and the backup singers lead the audience in singing "Happy Birthday" to Ray. Ray Charles died on June 10, 2004 from acute liver disease, he was 73.

Did The Lizard King really die in that bathtub in Paris, or did he fake his own death to run off and live in Africa as a poet? There was always some kind of theory or story that supported that fact. There was an account of a hitchhiker in Rolling Stone magazine, that claimed he was picked up by Morrison and given a ride back to Morrison's hidden home where they indulged in women and drugs for days. The death of Jim Morrison will always be shrouded in mystery due to the fact no autopsy was performed. Also it's been said that when some one arrived in Paris to find out what happened, Jim was in a sealed casket and Pamela had a signed death certificate. The official ruling was Jim Morrison died of heart failure due to a heroin overdose July 3, 1971, he was 27. Ray Manzarek died from bile duct cancer May 20, 2013, he was 74.

A nice recording from The Beatles before Beatlemania would take over the USA. In a few months the band would make their Ed Sullivan debut and The States would never be the same. Soon long hair and Beatle Boots would be the fashion. The world of Pop Music wouldn't be the same either. Before The Beatles bands were backing groups to singers, such as Buddy Holly and The Crickets, but The Beatles were a group, every one was considered a star in the band and no one was expendable. When it was suggested to the band to dump Stuart Sutcliffe the only replay was He's a Beatle. John Lennon was taken from us by a crazed fan who's name I haven't said since it happened. On December 8, 1980 John Lennon was returning home from a recording session when a cowardly gunman shot him 4 times in the back, he was pronounced dead on arrival to the hospital. He was only 40 years old. In 1997 George Harrison was diagnosed with throat cancer, which they thought had been successfully treated. George's cancer nightmares were only beginning. In May 2001 George had to have a cancerous growth removed from his lung. He then underwent treatment for a brain tumor in June of 2001. In November of 2001 it was determined that Georges lung cancer had spread to his brain. George Harrison died November 29, 2001, he was 58.

Nice recording Ozzy Osbourne supporting his Ultimate Sin album. The Ultimate Sin was a huge hit for Ozzy and spawned a hit single in "Shot In The Dark". Ozzy was once again sporting a new band. Along with Jake E. Lee on guitar was Phil Soussan on bass and Randy Castillo on drums. Phil and Randy were former members of Lita Ford's band, a lot of core Ozzy fans reacted negatively. The band however fit Ozzy's new sound, Ozzy was chasing the charts and the LA Glam Metal scene at the time. When Ozzy returned with No Rest For The Wicked anchored by Zack Wylde, Randy Castillo was the only one of the Ultimate Sin line up that was still in the band. Keyboardist Mike Moran, who played on The Ultimate Sin didn't even make the tour, John Sinclair of Uriah Heep did. Randy Castillo remained with Ozzy until after the No More Tears Retirement Tour. Randy joined Mötley Crüe afterwards and played on the New Tattoo album. Randy Castillo died on March 26, 2002 at the age of 51 from Squamous Cell Carcinoma, a fast spreading form of cancer.

It's Been A Year!!!

 

Today marks the First Anniversary of The New JDP. We started December 8, 2013, after having the original Just Dave's Place closed by Blogger. The original site was running for about a year when it was closed down, but since this is a completely new page we are not counting that time. It has been a great year. Our first day that we were up and running we had 1000 page views, we have since settled into a respectful average of 600 visits a day. Rosebud and I would like to thank all those who visit, everyone from the ones who post comments to the ones who just visit and download some free music. We thank you all!! If not for you we would be doing this for nothing. We have made some new friends along the way, not going to list them because I don't want to forget anyone. We started with a simple pledge... To not post anything that we wouldn't listen to, as well as nothing that we don't listen to. In the coming years we will not stray from that original promise. That does mean that updates come a little slower because Rosebud and I have to both listen to each boot and agree before it gets posted. So in a nutshell thank you all for spending this year with us and we hope for many more to come!!

A great recording form Pantera on their Far Beyond Driven Tour. This was actually the beginning of the end for Pantera. According to band members, after a break in touring Phil Anselmo would start distancing himself from the band and acting quite strange. They figured it was Phil developing a big ego due to Pantera's success. Phil claimed it was due to severe back pain from his intense performing style. As it turned out Phil was addicted to heroin and would OD an hour after a homecoming gig July 13, 1996. The mounting tension between Pantera and Phil finally came to a breaking point in 2003 when the Abbott brothers formally broke up Pantera and formed Damageplan. During the first minutes of a Damageplan gig at the Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio December 8, 2004, "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott was murdered by a deranged fan. The gunman killed 3 others and had his gun at the head of another audience member when an off duty police officer, who was a Pantera fan shot and killed him.

Nice 4 CD set commemorating the time that Denis "Piggy" D'Amour was guitarist for Canadian Progressive Thrsah Metal band Voivod. During this time in the band Voivod experimented with their sound on almost every album. This collection has demo tracks from various albums and a live soundboard recording from the bands tour to promote 4th album Dimension Hatröss. Also included are some untitled demos recorded by Piggy in 1994 which would form the bases for the Negatron album. Denis "Piggy" D'Amour passed away on  August 26, 2005 from colon cancer that had metastasized throughout his body, he was 45 years old.

This is a rather large file set so I divided it into 2 parts.

This recording comes from the final tour of Deep Purple Mach II. The band had gone through a couple reunions already when their label talked them into a 25th anniversary tour. Ritchie Blackmore actually had to be given a large monetary advance to agree to it. During the tour, on November 17 1993, Ritchie walked out in the middle of a show. Joe Satriani was used to finish off the tour, and it looked like he would join the band. That didn't work out but former Dixie Dregs guitarist Steve Morse did and continues to this day. Jon Lord retired from Deep Purple in 2002 to pursue a solo career. Don Airy who had worked with Whitesnake, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne and Rainbow was asked to join the group. Jon Lord was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in July of 2011. He had been recieving treatment, but Jon Lord died on July 16, 2012 from a pulmonary embolism, he was 71.

His commanding stage presence, soaring voice, and flamboyant stage attire won audiences the world over. Queen concerts were a feast of sound and sight, with a light show that would blind a full stadium. We lost Freddy Mercury to bronchial pneumonia, a complication of AIDS, on November 23, 1991.

When Chrissy Hynde went into the studio to make a demo tape of her original songs in 1978, her 3 piece band consisted of Hynde, Steve Strange of The Moors Murderers, and Philthy "Animal" Taylor of Motörhead. After hearing the demos Dave Hill of Anchor Records convinced Hynde to form a permanent band. The Pretenders took form shortly after.

This Pre-FM recording catches the band on tour for their first album. The self titled debut album was a critical and commercial success in the US and the UK, hitting #9 on the Billboard chart and #1 on the UK Album chart. The single "Brass In Pocket" hit the Billboard Top 20 peaking at #14. This was a great time for the band, and the performance here gives no hint that this line up would fall apart due to drug abuse.

Pete Farndon was fired from the band on June 14, 1982 due to his drug addiction causing increasing tension in the band. Hynde has said that he became someone you just couldn't work with. Fardon was found dead in his bathtub, April 14, 1983, after taking heroin he passed out and drowned. James Honeyman-Scott was found dead 2 days later due to heart failure from a cocaine overdose. Chrissie Hynde says that Honeyman-Scott's death is what made her keep the band together, that she just couldn't let the music die.

I don't have a lot of music by these guys but do really love their unique style and sound. A friend of mine who is a big fan turned me on to them many years ago. I have attended a couple Blues Traveler shows with him and really enjoyed the performance. This really good sounding recording is a nice representation of what Blues Traveler is all about live. Original bassist Bobby Sheehan died August 20, 1999 from an accidental overdose of heroin, cocaine and Valium.

Stevie Ray Vaughan was finally clean & sober. The drugs and alcohol were behind him along with his divorce from his wife. The divorce kept him from writing and recording new music for almost 2 years. When Stevie finally got back to it he was nervous his new sobriety would hinder his musical abilities. He needn't worry because he soon finished In Step, an album some have called his most inspired. The tours were very successful, one with Jeff Beck, another with Joe Cocker. Things were on a high for Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble when they joined Eric Clapton for a star studded run of shows at Alpine Valley. Stevie was taken from us when his helicopter crashed into the ski hill after take off all on board were killed. This recording comes from the show the day prior to Stevie's death.
