Only 5 tracks but it's 5 tracks from Royal Scam. The Royal Scam was Steely Dan's 4th album to go Platinum and 3rd in a row. Countdown To Ecstasy is the only Classic era album not to reach Platinum sales. These 5 outtakes should be a welcome addition to Steely Dan fans.

Weather Report has had a few  people flow through their line up but this is one of my favorites. The band has Wayne Shorter, Jaco Pastorius and Joe Zawinul for one. They also have the some what lesser known Alex Acuna and Manolo Badrena, who have played with more people than I could list. So much talent involved and they live up to it. I never caught Weather Report in concert so have a recording from a Michigan show was extra special.

Joe Zawinul passed away September 11, 2007 from a rare skin cancer, he was 75.

Jaco Pastorius passed away at age 35 September 21, 1987 due to injuries from a bar fight.

Here we go another great performance by the band War. I promised our friend Jackson there would be another War show soon, so here you are Jackson! If you liked the last War upload you're going to love this one. This FM recording has more depth than the last soundboard recording. There is definitely more of a balance to the instruments and vocals. The only bummer about this recording is that "Lowrider" wasn't broadcast. The original uploader notes say War had a run of 3 nights at The Wetlands Preserve with 2 shows per night. This is the final nights late show and it kicks ass. As we all know War boots are rare so I would highly recommend downloading this recording!

Yet another post in my Salute To Progressive Rock Bands. The purpose of this salute is not only to post shows from the bigger names in Prog like Genesis or Yes but also lesser known bands. Some of the bands I choose may considered by purists to not be true Progressive Rock bands. I actually couldn't care for purists with restrictive minds on what is or isn't a certain form of music. Progressive Music expands the boundaries and pushes the scope of music further. So here we have another boundary expanding band called Public Service Broadcasting from London, England. Public Service Broadcasting use an array of instruments to make their particular brand of Progressive Music. Electroncs, samples, conventional instruments (such as drums, bass, guitar etc), and not so conventional (banjo, flugelhorn etc). They also use audio clips from public service films, propaganda films, etc. This performance also includes a horn section. If you liked Ozric Tentacles you might like Public Service Broadcasting

justdave's notes:
After I ripped the waves I only used Goldwave to adjust a couple track marks. No noise reduction, EQing, re-mixing or re-mastering was done.

As someone who didn't know too much about Days Of The New, I had to search a little for the info on this show. The person who supplied me with the disc only wrote the name of the band and FM on the disc. The date given was MA-07.18.98, which was how the songs were tagged on the CD. The set list and location information comes from www.setlist.fm. The line-up information comes from wikipedia.

Not sure why I haven't posted this on the blog yet. I actually thought I had, surprised it hasn't shown up on any blogs yet either since I posted it at the Trader's Den a while ago. I received this with a bunch of CDs and CD-rs from our friend Randy. Randy sent quite a few shows FMs & Pre-FMs that are already on the blog. This is a great sounding recording and you don't see a lot of Days Of The New boots either.

This line-up only release one album, they broke up after the tour for that album. Todd Whitener, Jesse Vest and Matt Taul went on to form Tantric. Travis Meeks formed another line-up of Days Of The New releasing 2 more studio albums. The band's line-up was very fluid after the initial break up. The former band member list is only eclipsed by Parliament/Funkadelic.

Here's The New Stuff

  Okay it's been a while since I did one of these things so I guess this is the latest news from The New JDP.

First on our minds is the loss of Jazz Keyboard & Piano Legend Chick Corea. We lost Chick on February 9, 2021 at the age of 79 to cancer. As you all know Chick is one of my all time favorite Jazz keyboardists, along with Keith Jarrett and Herbie Hancock. In tribute to Chick we have a FM recording with Jazz Fusion Greats Return To Forever from 1975. It's only 3 songs but a little over an hour of music from the Classic line-up with Chick, Al Di Meola, Stanley Clarke & Lenny White.

We round out our Jazz uploads this week with shows from site favorite saxophonist Joe Lovano from 2019 and The Modern Jazz Quartet from 1966

We have some rare recordings for you again this time around. We are glad to announce we are one of the first blogs to feature a newly surfaced soundboard recording from the Funk Band War. This 1986 soundboard from Rockefeller's included both the early & late shows for over 3 hours of great music.

Another rarity we have for you is another set of BBC Recordings from a not so well known British Rock Band, The Keef Hartley Band. The Keef Hartley Band, like Toe Fat (who's BBC Tapes we brought you last posting) is known more for having future Uriah Heep bassist Gary Thain in their ranks.

We end Rosebud's Tribute To Her Favorite Singers with the second in our new series The Roots Of Heavy Metal And Hard Rock and the next in a line of out of print live albums, Motorhead's King Biscuit Flower Hour Presents. It's out of print and considered by Lemmy to be an unofficial release.

As I said the Motorhead is 2nd in our series The Roots Of Hard Rock & Heavy Metal. The first was the post from Heavy Blues Rockers Toe Fat. This series will really feature some of the early influences on the development of early Hard Rock & Heavy Metal to the seeds of the modern variants. Posts will included Blues Master Elmore James, Heavy Blues Rockers like The Jeff Beck Group, The Animals & Cream. Hard Rock from Golden Earing, Aerosmith, and Deep Purple. As well as the Punk Rock bands that inspired the Underground Metal scenes of the 1980s. as well as New Wave Of British Heavy Metal Bands to Thrash and beyond.

Our Salute To Progressive Rock Bands continues with a soundboard recording from early in British Prog Band National Health's career. Bill Bruford (Yes, King Crimson, Genesis) is still a member at this point.

We also have a show from recently lost Punk Rock influence Sylvain Sylvain of The New York Dolls. He passed away January 13, 2021 at the age of 69 from cancer.

That's what we have for you new this time. Things are starting to settle down a little bit here so I hope to get back to a more regular schedule for postings.

As Always Thank You For Visiting With Us!!

Thomas "Papa Dee" Allen died from an on stage brain aneurysm in 1988

Leroy "Lonnie" Jordan is the only original member left in War. The band lost the rights to the name War in a 1990's court decision to their manager. Original members Howard E. Scott, Lee Oskar, Harold Brown and B.B. Dickerson now tour under the name The Lowrider Band.

This great War show just surfaced at The Traders Den on February 1, 2021 when it was shared by good1. I haven't seen it on any blogs yet. The recording while very listenable is not without some flaws. Like all soundboards I have heard from Rockefeller's in Dallas Texas the vocals are very high in the mix while the instruments for the most part are lower in the mix. This is probably to do with the size of the venue. At smaller clubs things like drums, bass and electric guitar can be heard fine being low in the mix due to their loud nature. Vocals usually run louder than these instruments in a small club so that they may be heard over the much louder instruments. This is still a great show and a nice 3 hour listen!

Another band who is more known for the fact that a future member of Uriah Heep came from their ranks. The band is more of a Hard Rocking Blood, Sweat & Tears than an early Hard Rock group like Toe Fat. I think all lovers of the 1970's Jazz Rock & R & B bands will like The Keef Harley Band.

This is our first ever Jazz On Sunday post picked by Rosebud. Rosebud usually picks Heavy Metal or Hard Rock bands with the occasional off pick here or there. She's usually note much of a Jazz fan. When I was previewing this recording for posting Rosebud spoke up saying "I really like this one, they've played some pretty melodies. This is the kind of Jazz I like, not the kind that sounds like nobody on stage is playing the same song (lmao). She then said that I should post this one on the site. I told her that was a great idea, I hadn't thought of that.

Alan Gowen passed away in 1981 from leukemia, he was 47.

For this weeks installment of our Tribute To Progressive Rock Bands we have a nice one from the British Prog-Band National Health. This was still pretty early in the bands career having formed in 1975. This incarnation of the band never released a studio album. The self titled first album was released in 1978. By then Bill Bruford had left National Health and formed Bruford. His replacement was Pip Pyle formerly of Gong. Bass player Mont Campbell left before the first album as well. He was replaced by Neil Murray who later went on to Rainbow and Black Sabbath. National Health actually worked with members of Henry Cow for their second album (awh man to have some soundboard quality recordings of Henry Cow).

The music is mostly instrumental, vocalist Amanda Parsons really sings mostly octave vocalizations when she does sing. Download this show for a glimpse at a quick passing ship in the prolific career of Bill Bruford

Notes:
Out of print King Biscuit Flower Hour release. King Biscuit Records went out of business some years ago. Lemmy never considered this a legitimate release. It remains out of print due to Lemmy's dislike of this era of the band. Lemmy did release the 1983 show from The Manchester Apollo with the Remastered Deluxe Edition of Another Perfect Day. That's why this is a great pick for Rosebud's Tribute To Her Favorite Singers. It was also scheduled to be up loaded for my series of Out Of Print Live Albums. Lemmy's "been up all night smoking and drinking whiskey" vocals may not be everyone's choice for a fave vocalist but Rosebud loves Lemmy and Motörhead. We have seen then many times together. I came home from work one night, washed then sat down for dinner (I worked later than her and thankfully she would make dinner for us before I  got home). I found tickets to Motörhead on my plate. She's surprised me that way a lot, including Emerson, Lake & Palmer (main floor 6th row center!!), Morbid Angel, Frank Marino, Charlie Daniels, Cryptopsy etc...I Love My Wife!!

Alright this is truly a rare find. It's difficult to even locate a Toe Fat album, but a bootleg, wow! Toe Fat to some are a footnote in the Rock And Roll History Book referencing other bands. Two members of Toe Fat, Ken Hensley & Lee Kerslake, left to form Uriah Heep after the first album. John Glascock went on to join Jethro Tull. Brian Glascock went on to play with Captain Beyond, Iggy Pop, The Motels & The Bee Gees. Alan Kendall went on to play lead guitar for The Bee Gees. Of course there was Lee & Ken's first band The Gods with future E.L.P. member Greg Lake. The Gods first single is included here. The main body of this disc is the BBC appearances of Toe Fat. Toe Fat's Psychodelic Hard Rock was vital to The Roots Of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.

This installment of Rosebud's Tribute To Her Favorite Singers may be a bit of a surprise. Then again we did just have a Country Music show pick by Rosebud so Gordon Lightfoot isn't such a stretch. You would be hard pressed to find someone who grew up in Michigan that doesn't know "The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald". The song or the shipwreck that inspired it. Gordon Lightfoot's music was also all over Michigan Radio Stations. The Legenday AM Radio Station CKLW out of Windsor, Ontario, Canada would play Gordon Lightfoot all the time. The station carried American artists but had a Canadian artist first policy. A lot of Michigan artists would open an office in Canada just to get radio airplay on CKLW. Legend says that the station wired it's transmitter to The Windsor-Detroit Tunnel making the Detrot River a transmitter. This made the station heard as far as Scandinavia. In actuality the tunnel was wired so that CKLW could still be heard in the tunnel. If that helped boost it's signal I don't know. Now the tunnel is wired so that WJR Detroit AM can be heard while driving in the tunnel.

justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume, edit track marks, and take care of a few noises from  Massimo Morante's microphone when he turns it on to speak. No noise reduction or equalization was used. There is a bit of his during in between tracks and a amplifier hum as well. This does not however take away from the enjoyable listening experience that this recording is.

So when I say the word Goblin what comes to mind first. A B rated horror movie, or a green bad guy in a Spiderman comic. If I said it's a band's name do you think Cheesy 1980's Hair/Glam Metal. You don't immediately come to a Jazz Influenced Progressive Rock Band from Italy that specializes in movie soundtracks. Now that we have arrived to this point I can tell you this Goblin show is a great installment in our Tribe To Progressive Rock.

Okay Allman Brothers Band & Gov't Mule fans here's a nice rarity for you. Bass player Allen Woody leading his own Power Jam of sorts called Woody's Truck Stop. I'm not sure how many of these shows he did , at least some one recorded this one for posterity. Allen Woody died August 26, 2000 at the age of 44, from a heroin overdose. Makes it even nicer to have at least a C rated recording of this show than not at all. This is not the best sounding soundboard recording you'll listen to. This one is a little rough. You have sound level fluctuations, drop outs, and a bit of a muddy sound. It may be great for the True Gov't Mule Head, not so for the casual listener. It's not that it's complete shit but it's not something that will be constantly on your playlist.
