I have 2 different recordings of this show with obvious differences in the recordings. I included both versions in the download since they are both kind of small. This way you can choose 1 or keep both like me.

After having an expanded line up from 1978 to 1982, Nazareth are back to the original 4 man line up from 1983 to 1990. In 1990 founding guitarist Manny Charlton will leave, being replaced by none other than Billy Rankin. Billy played second guitar in Nazareth from 1980 till the end of 1982. Billy Rankin will stay in the band from 1990 to 1994 when current guitarist Jimmy Murrison takes over.

I used DVD Audio Extractor to ripp the wave files. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume and re-edit some of the tracks. I then encoded the files to MP3 320kbps since the audio tested lossy even though it's listed as LPCM in the DVD text file.

Another Killer set from the longest lived line-up of Motörhead. This is another group I could never have enough live recordings of.

I used DVD Audio Extractor v5.4.4 to rip the audio. I then used Goldwave v5.04 to try to even out the volume and edit out some drop outs.

I personally could never have too many live Slayer recordings. Exodus guitarist Gary Holt is now a permanent member of the group. Exodus is still a very active band so Gary will be doing double duty. Maybe we'll get some Slayer & Exodus tours.

Although Killers is my all time favorite Iron Maiden album (Di'Anno's vocals on "Twilight Zone" are the best he ever recorded in my humble opinion). When it comes to the Bruce Dickinson era it's Number Of The Beast. It's also the first time I seen them live. The live shows still featured songs from the Paul Di'Anno era, and Bruce sung his ass off. Iron Maiden has always been a hell of a live band.
