I've been on a bit of a Joshua Redman kick lately. That of course means more Joshua Redman to download. This makes our 15th Joshua Redman related post. There are recordings of Joshua with The Bad Plus, James Farm, Pat Metheny, his Legendary Father Dewey Redman, and his own trios, quartets, etc. I guess you could say I'm a bit of a fan. The thing is, and Rosebud will back me up here, my ferret Chewy is a piano & saxophone Jazz fan. I know it sounds weird but animals do like music and piano & saxophone music makes him lay in front of the stereo, listen and fall asleep. Anything with horns is okay with him actually, including Earth, Wind & Fire. So when he's being a little too mischievous it's Joshua Redman or Joe Lovano time.

Take a minute to look at that Quartet's line-up. Herbie Hancock piano, Freddy Hubbard trumpet, Ron Carter bass, and Tony Williams on drums. Any Jazz lover reading this will need no prompting to download this one. For the casual Jazz fan, this is not Hard Avant-Garde Jazz, Free Form Jazz, Funk-Jazz or Jazz Fusion. This is a more traditional style of Jazz, so nothing to fear here. If you just download a Jazz show here and there, this is one you should do just that. I recommend you'll enjoy it!

Ozric Tentacles are an Synth Driven Instrumental Progressive Rock Band from England. If you haven't heard them they sound kind of like the instrumental parts of early Porcupine Tree. Not that they are a Porcupine Tree clone, just that if you liked that era of PT you may like Ozric Tentacles. Some Prog-Rock Purists would say that Ozric Tentacles are too Heavy Metal sounding to be Progressive Rock. My understanding of Progressive Rock was to push the boundaries, break the rules. For me it always meant a band who's music is always evolving trying new combinations of genres, instruments, etc, but I'm not a purist so who cares, right? So I am including this Ozric Tentacles show in my Salute To Progressive Rock.

justdave's notes:
Out of print live album by band founded by Detroit Wheels alumni Jim McCarty & John "The Bee" Bandanjek. The Rockets were Rock & Roll music through and through. The bands national debut album had a hit with a cover of Fleetwod Mac's "Oh Well". It was this hit that prompted Fleetwood Mac to bring the song back into their live shows. With music steeped in the traditions of Little Richard & Fats Domino filtered through The Rolling Stones then smoked in a huge Detroit Doobie, everyone expected huge things for The Rockets. There were hits, the band was on RSO the same label as Eric Clapton & The Bee Gees. Everybody loved Jim McCarty's playing, he's the Jimmy in the Jimi Hendrix tune "The Jimi-Jimmy Jam" on the Nine To The  Universe album! He was also known for his guitar work with Cactus. With all that going for them The Rockets came to an end after touring in support of this very live album. They played 2 great shows at Pine Knob Amphitheater in Clarkston, Michigan then they were gone. There were a lot of rumors of certain band members recreational habits being the cause but since I don't know I don't repeat.

Enjoy this great out of print live album

justdave's notes:
When I downloaded this recording from The Traders Den the original uploader encouraged someone to re-track the waves. I trimmed off 1 minute of silence at the end of "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)". I then cut the beginning of the "Drum Solo" off of the end of "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" and placed it in it's proper spot. I also had to do this with "Crossroads", & "Mississippi Queen". I also reduced the volume of Leslie Wests comments because they were much louder than the music. I then added a fade in/out on the first and last tracks. No EQ or noise reduction was used, nor was there any remixing done.

Thank you Leslie Mountain for posting the original recording at The Traders Den.

Leslie West went into cardiac arrest on December 21, 2020. He passed away December 23, 2020, Leslie was age 75.

I used Goldwave to convert the source MP4 into a 16 bit wave. I then used Goldwave to adjust some volume issues and edit track marks. No EQ or noise reduction was used. The MP4 had lossy audio so Trader's Little Helper was used to encode the waves to MP3 320kbps.

On tour to promote their first album Eparistera Daimones, Triptykon (Greek for triptych) hits the Wacken Open Air stage. Rather ironic since a headlining slot at Wacken 2006 was part of Celtic Frost's return. That return was called to a halt when founder Thomas Gabriel Fischer left the band. Fischer stated he could no longer work with the members of Celtic Frost, nor bear to use the name anymore. Triptykon's 1st album is the rightful successor to Celtic Frost's Monotheist. It does take a further step down the Experimental Blackened Doom of it's predecessor. Unfortunately this is a short set with 2 tracks being covers. This means you get only 4 tracks representing Melana Chasmata and "The Prolonging" fades early (ironic if you think about it). It is however a soundboard recording from their first World Tour so gotta have it.

Sorry For The Lengthy Wait For New Posts

Sorry about the long wait between posts. I have been a little distracted since my Mom & Dad, My younger brother, his wife and their son were all diagnosed with covid-19. My Mother has recuperated well. My brother, his wife and son all are feeling better as well. My Father is not bouncing back and has been i and out of hospital 4 times. My Father is a 72 year old Veteran of The Viet Nam - American War. He was in the 1st Armored Division, clearing vegetation. My Father was exposed to Agent Orange doing his job there. He suffers from all kinds of ailments from this exposure. The least of which is glowing purple spots on his body under a black light. He has non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Parkinson's  disease also attributed to his exposure. He is now covid-19 free but it has brought along a lot of lingering complications due to his other illnesses. I use this blog as an escape of the real world sometimes so  I'll continue making posts but they may be a little sporadic for now.

Thank You JustDave

justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to re-edit some track marks and add fade in/fade out at beginning/ending. The DVD had 5.1 Surround Sound so I converted the waves from 6 channel to 2 channel stereo with Goldwave. The waves were lossy so I encoded them to MP3 320kbps using Traders Little Helper

Another great show from The Claypool Lennon Delirium. These guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite bands. I personally would not have thought to combine Les Claypool & Sean Lennon. This is because I don't remember ever hearing anything about Sean's music. After the first show of theirs I downloaded I was convince it was a great idea. Throwing in Stone Giant keyboardist João Nogueira & Cake drummer Paulo Baldi is the icing on the cake (yep, I see it, the pun was not intended).

This is some great Psychedelic Progressive Rock like came out of London, England's 1960s Psychedelic Rock scene. The Delirium is a band that wears it influences on it's sleeve for all to see. You can hear The Beatles, Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd and much more. This is the kind of stuff where we used to smoke a bunch of Red Bud and veg out to. Headphones or a beanbag chair between the speakers (don't lie we all had them). This is the 3rd post from The Delirium already on this site. More can be found here. We also have 6 Primus shows that can be found (here) including a rare recording of an appearance as Bob Cock & The Yellow Sock!

justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to edit some track marks and try to address some of the volume issues of the audio. No EQ or noise reduction was used. There are however some fluctuations in the volume that I could not quite fix. This is however a very enjoyable listen. Some of the tracks have a DJ talking over them, I thought about deleting them, but didn't.

"Chinese Rocks" was written by Dee Dee Ramone and Richard Hell. As the story goes Dee Dee took it to The Ramones but Johnny originally declined due to it's obvious drug reference (but 53 & 3. It was first recorded by Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers. In the album credits, Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers tried to take credit for writing the song. The copy right papers however list Dee Dee Ramone & Richard Hell only.

Dee Dee Ramone would leave the band in 1989 for a solo career. His last show was July 5 1989. C.J. Ramone made his live debut September 30, 1989. Dee Dee Ramone died June 5, 2002 from a heroin overdose, he was 50. Joey Ramone died April 15, 2001 from lymphoma, he was 49. Johnny Ramone died September 15, 2004 from prostate cancer, he was 55.

Imperial State Electric is yet another project of Nicke Anderson. Since the break up of The Hellacopters, Imperial State Electric and a reformed Entombed are Nick's main focus. Musically if you are a fan of The Hellacopters you'll be a fan of Imperial State Electric. The music is the same, Garage Rock to the core, influenced by the likes of, The MC5, The Rationals, Radio Birdman, The Nomads, The Frost, The Stooges...you get the idea.

This is dedicated to Rocket & Smoker over at Hear Rock City. I downloaded my 1st Hellacopters bootleg from The Original Hear Rock City blog. The Hellacopters Live At Rock Am Ring 2005. A Must Have, which by the way is posted at The New Hear Rock City blog (here). There are also 2 more shows posted on this site from the Hellacopters, Roskilde Festival 2001 (here) and Roskilde Festival 2017 (here) if you haven't downloaded them yet.

For this segment of our Salute To Progressive Rock Bands we have a show from Canadian Rockers Saga. Saga comes from the same musical waters as Kansas, Electric Light Orchestra, Supertramp, Asia, Ambrosia, Styx, Journey before Steve Perry, Phil Collins era Genesis, Trevor Rabin era Yes and many others. A style of Progressive Rock disowned by Prog-Rock Purists and insultingly called Pomp-Rock or Pomp-Prog. Progressive Rock with a distinct lean towards radio airplay and hitting the charts. This was to be done without sacrificing musicianship. A fine line just ask Carl Palmer about Love Beach.

Saga scored a couple Top 20 Singles. "Wind Him Up" hit #7 in Germany, "On The Loose" hit #2 in USA, and "The Flyer" hit #19 in the USA. All 3 of those songs were in heavy rotation on early era MTV. A lot of bands profited from the fact that MTV didn't have a lot of videos to play . Meaning if you had a video it made it on the air. Those 3 videos from Saga made me seek out their albums, which I still listen to (the vinyl yes JD). This tape shows a little age, but is an enjoyable listen. I do have a couple more Saga show that I will be posting in the future.

Hold on Ladies & Gentleman, you say you want more?! I'll throw in Pat Metheny & Christian McBride at no extra cost (just pay separate shipping fee). I don't have to sell it, I know everybody that likes Jazz is going to download this one with a line-up like that. Joshua Redman, Pat Metheny, Christian McBride, and Billy Higgins...Bad Ass!!

If you've been following the blog for any bit of time you know Rosebud's Favorite Singer is Geoff Tate formally of Queensrÿche. This recording is from Tate's music project since the big break up. This broadcast was done for his fans who are locked down during the quarantine. It's an acoustic show of Queensrÿche songs. Some of the songs performed were a little surprising. "Bridge" and "Chasing Blue Sky" for instance.

When it comes to this musical debate Rosebud & I both agree. we are a Geoff Tate is the only singer for Queensrÿche camp. We both have heard Todd La Torre impersonate Geoff in the studio. We have heard many bootlegs of the Todd La Torre line-up live. To us it's the same as Journey with Arnel Pineda, Boston with Tommy DeCarlo, or Judas Priest with Tim "Ripper" Owens (to a lesser extent since he brought other influences into the song writing JD). They all hired Tribute Band Singers just like Queensrÿche with Todd La Torre. They are trying to hard to sound like the fan favorite line up is still there (dare I say KISS!! JD).

Deep Purple, after Ian Gillan left hired Glenn Hughes & David Coverdale, neither tried to sound like Ian. When Ozzy Osbourne left Black Sabbath, they hired Ronnie James Dio who did not try to sound like Ozzy. When Dio left Rainbow, Blackmore hired Graham Bonnet, not at all like Dio vocally. These changes took balls. Each band changed a signature sound around a new singers vocal abilities. Not always a winning maneuver, just ask Mötley Crüe & John Corabi. That team up made 1 of Mötley Crüe's best albums, fans said nope. Blaze Bayley did a hell of a job with Iron Maiden, releasing 2 great albums, fans said nope (and Bruce still sings Blaze era tracks live!! JD).

So don't get me wrong Todd La Torre, Arnel Pineda, Tommy DeCarlo & Tim "Ripper" Owens (a Metal God himself damn it!) sing/sang their asses off! They are great at what they do/did, which is what the band wants/wanted them to do, kick ass with someone elses voice. Not easy to do.

As we continue to pay Tribute To Rosebud's Favorite Singers, we have to mention Brad Delp of Boston. Boston would have sounded so different if Brad Delp never sang for them. His voice is just so perfect for the aural assault imagined by Tom Scholz. The "Boston Sound" was layer upon layer of multi-tracked guitars and vocals to give a full and polished studio sound. They sought to recreate this sound on stage. With Tom Scholz's custom built amps & effects they were pretty successful.

I can remember the first time I heard Boston. I came home from school, went to my room to do my home work. I turned on my stereo and hit FM while I looked through my albums for something to say yeah pick me. I grabbed my copy of The Doors 13, a great compilation, and started to put it on when I heard the start of "Foreplay/Long Time". I was blown away to say the least. After hearing the organ in that medley I put away The Doors and threw on Uriah Heep's Greatest Hits. I had to hear Ken Hensley make his organ growl, howl and scream after that. I went out and bought Boston's 1st album with my saved allowance money. I caught them live on the Don't Look Back Tour. They kicked ass live. I can't remember who opened for them either. They were that kind of live band though, so damn good you would forget who ever played with them that night. Rosebud never caught the band live unfortunately, with this show in her collection at least she can hear them!

justdave's notes:
Alleged European only live LP released by Blue Öyster Cult. It's not being sold on the bands website or listed. There is some pretty bad fluctuations in the sound during "Dominance And Submission". The bass goes in and out of the mix, sounding real bad when it comes in. I actually find it hard that this was actually marketed by Blue Öyster Cult. The label says that Sandy Pearlman was Executive Producer and it was released on the Castle Communications label. It sounds like a un-mixed soundboard recording to me. The soundman seems to be having a hard time with mixing the bass through out the recording. I am not saying it is a bad listen, it's not. It's actually a nice listen.

It is also out of print so I figured I would post it here. I have a few more out of print live albums that I will be posting. This is the 1st of a series.
