JustDave's Notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to add a fade in and fade out at the beginning and end of the show. I also re-edited some track marks. No EQ or Noise Reduction was used. No remastering or remixing was done. The sound is pretty good, maybe a little muddy in bottom end, but a good listen. The show had lossless audio so it is available in both Flac Level 8 & MP3 320kbps.

The set has a nice collection of Fleetwood Mac & solo material. Stevie also includes a cover of Tom Petty's "I Need To Know". Listening to this show brings back memories of my first car, graduating, and my first experience at being on tour. Looking back it was a terrible mess, but I wouldn't go back and change anything. We were one of the early bands in the growing Underground Power/Speed/Thrash Metal scene. It was hard getting bands like us in the more upscale clubs where all the "cover bands" played. Our bands however had to play the sleaziest dives you could think of. We got the Gay Bars (not all were in bad neighborhoods but they booked Punk bands a lot!), Biker bars (2 things seem universal at biker bars love of Motorhead and Waylon Jennings) and a lot of Teen Clubs (bars that lost liquor licenses). All of which seemed to be exclusively in the worst parts of town. One place was so bad they had armed guards with dogs walking people to and from the parking lot! The bands had to have someone in their bus/truck/van/station wagon at all times to guard against theft.

Okay I will get on with the good part.

Quadraphonic Digitization of Pop Special - BBC Pop Spectacular Featuring Genesis In Concert 137492-SQ from a DVDA downloaded from a Russian Torrent Tracker. For those who prefer MP3 encodings I used DVD Audio Extractor to rip a dual wave instead of a quad wave rip. This gets the same mix but only in stereo since MP3 can not be encoded to SQ-Quadraphonic only Flac works in this situation, unless you want a DVD audio encoding.

Okay that info is out of the way. Of course this Pre-FM SQ-Quadraphonic DVDA comes from our friends at The Genesis Archive. They of course find the best sources of well known shows. The DVD had not only the Quad Pre-FM but the audience recording in stereo but it was not something I thought I would listen to more than once. I didn't even finish it.. You will definitely enjoy this BBC Special Broadcast in your collection...I know I was real happy when I found this.

The SQ-Quadraphonic Flac set is huge so it is broken into 4 parts ALL parts unzip separately. The Stereo Flac Is in 2 Parts and will unzip separately as well.

I just watched a documentary about Jeff Healey's Blues Club in Canada. I had no idea that he had a club.  That he was successful at it and had to move from his initial club to a larger one. That new club hosted a lot of great musicians. It also gave Healey a chance to kind of road test new material before taking it on the road or recording it. The documentary taught me a little about the full on hometown pride that Canadians had in Jeff Healey. Quite a few call him Canada's Answer To Stevie Ray Vaughan. I myself am still pondering that comparison. I am a big fan of Stevie Ray Vaughan, I also really like Jeff Healey's music. My only problem with Jeff Healey was like Robert Cray, their albums seemed a little over produced, too polished maybe. In comparison both sound a little too clean next to Stevie's studio output. Now I have attended quite a few shows and own a lot of bootlegs...both Jeff Healey and Robert Cray have all the grit and fire in a live situation (I really feel that so no hate please)!

I was a little surprised that Jeff Healey played The Ritz In Roseville. It's actually been a Heavy Metal Club since I can remember. Not just any Metal Club but Thee Hair Metal Club. During this time my Thrash/Speed Metal band, Psychosis could not play at The Ritz. We were banned by The Ritz before we played there. We were banned from Harpo's Cocert Theater for playing Thrash/Speed Metal on "Heavy Metal Nite At Harpo's". It was Heavy Metal Day so we were playing some of our heaviest stuff and 3 songs in they pulled the plug yelling "Who do you think you are!?!? The F4#king Sex Pistols?!? Get Off The Stage Now!! Take It Back To Blondies Where you belong!!!" The guy's hand was huge and it freakin' hurt as he physically pulled me from the stage. They had to pay us since they broke contract...then we left. Next day we bought a big red ink pad and 2 custom made stamps. One said "BANNED FROM HARPO'S!!" the other said "TOO HEAVY FOR HARPO"S!!". We stamped all our flyers with it. This was great publicity. We sold out a Monday at Blondies. After that we got all the Saturday Nights we would play...sorry got a little off track enjoy the Jeff Healey Band at The Ritz (Hair Metal Bar LOL).

Another nice sounding audience recording from Geoff Tate former lead vocalist of Queensrÿche. This recording comes from Geoff's Big Rock Show Hits Tour which actually focused on more than just the hits (now I actually like these songs so now for my reactions to the choises) "Desert Dance" comes from the Tribe album, "Sacred Ground" comes from Q2K, "I Am I" & "Bridge" come from Promised Land (okay these are on the tail end of their hayday), "Cold" comes from Frequency Unknown, "Real World" comes from the Last Action Hero Movie Soundtrack, all of which comes after the bands "so called Hayday". All of which make this a real nice set from Geoff. I love Operation Mindcrime and Empire but damn there are other songs that would be nice to hear once in a while. Like this particular set. Rosbud actually pleasantly surprised by some of these choices. I mean "Cold" from Frequency Unknown. Geoff's Queensryche album with half of Hollywood's 1980's musicians playing on it. I own the original, not the remixed remastered re-release. It sounds like the demos for an album that haven't been fleshed out yet (I'm being a little polite). A really rushed affair, but "Cold" comes off sounding pretty damn good here. I hope his upcoming tours will include more of his solo material and material recorded with Sweet Oblivion.

Okay what do I say about this great little package....first I don't remember where I obtained it. Secondly with all the famous projects each of these 4 musicians have worked in together and apart. You know what this is going to be. Especially if I say, Acoustic Guitars, members of The Byrds, The Burritos & the Desert Rose Band etc..you can imagine the sound. As one of them says between songs "..Acoustic Music can be fun!"

This is a nice collection of both sets Flyte played while opening for Emmylou Harris. I don't know if Emmylou played acoustic.. I don't think I have a recording of her sets. I looked through the drives I have plugged in right now, none was found. Flyte really seems to enjoy playing together but this particular band didn't last long. It's a small chapter in a much longer musical story so enjoy!!

Since the Charlie Haden post was a re-post I wanted to include something "new" as well. This is a nice sounding recording of yet another solo performance by The Legendary Keith Jarrett. The man was made for this, like Neil Young was made for all his solo tours. Kieth how ever will never tour again. He suffered 2 strokes and is now partially paralyzed on his left side. He has been able to rehabilitate his right hand by practicing that way I do believe it is twice a month. It's nice to know he can still do it a little in his private life. We do have tapes like this one to remind us how great he played. This should make you go and buy his commercial releases if you don't have them already! There is a lot of Keith Jarrett related shows on the blog check them out...he even played with Miles Davis for years!!

This is a very listenable audience recording recently added to Rosebud's Queensrÿche collection. Like me if she won't listen to it more than once she will not share it here. Geoff Tate has been more prolific in his music career since his "separation" with Queensrÿche in 2012. Tate has released 1 album under the Queensrÿche name, Frequency Unknown (which is pretty lackluster to say the least). A solo album, Kings & Thieves which was in production when the breakup came (and is a great album!). 3 albums were released with his band Operation Mindcrime (which are also kick ass!). Then also made 2 very killer albums with the band Sweet Oblivion (some of the best material Geoff has been associated with since the break-up). Sweet Oblivion actually headlined over Queensrÿche in at least one Festival situation.

To be fair Queensrÿche has released 4 albums with the modified line-up fronted by Todd La Torre. Todd La Torre has turned into a very active participant in the writing and recording of every album. Todd also played drums on 2019's The Verdict since Scott Rockenfield it seems will not be returning to the band. That leaves 2 founding members in the band, however guitarist Mike Stone has returned. Mike was first to fill the empty guitar chair when Chris DeGarmo left. There has been a few big money offers to re-unite the Classic Era Line-Up of Queensrÿche, all but Geoff Tate has dismissed them. Geoff states if they could sit in a room and talk it over maybe, but for the remaining members it would have to be about the money, which they don't really need. It's not going to happen, fans need to move on and enjoy the music while they can, the boys are not getting any younger!

Thrash/Speed Metal from U.S.S.R (Soviet Era Russia)

JustDave's Notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to add a fade in/fade out at the beginning and end respectively. I also edited track marks and doubled the volume. No EQ or Noise Reduction was used, no remastering or remixing was done. The DVD had audio that was lossy so I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps using Trader's Little Helper, sector boundaries were aligned.

Круиз (Kruiz) was one of the State Allowed Bands in Soviet Era U.S.S.R. The went through more than one state allowed musical direction too, while using the same name. Their first was as a Soft Pop/Rock band in the early 1980s. The U.S.S.R. revoked the bands license to be a band during a brief time western music became banned again. When they could reform it was as a Speed/Thrash Metal band after hearing smuggled American Thrash records. The last incarnation was as a Grunge band sounding a lot like Stone Temple Pilots.

This recording comes from my favorite era of the band, The Speed/Thrash Metal era (of course). Круиз (Kruiz) had a fresh take on Speed/Thrash Metal, maybe due to their Pop Rock sense of melody. I actually didn't hear of them till recently when I had said to a friend that Heavy Metal had started to get stale for me and I had to move on to Acid Jazz or Free Form Improvisational Jazz or even Drone/Noise Music to find something challenging. He gave me the name of some bands he liked that I had to research to find. They were from Ukraine, and when looking on a Russian torrent tracker for them I found Круиз (Kruiz). I loved them upon first listen, I then found out only a small amount of the extensive catalog I had downloaded was of the Metal variety I loved. So I deleted what I didn't like.

One of Rosebud's favorite female lead vocalists. She has a respectable amount of Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, and Starship stuff. I can go with almost all of it, but when it became Starship (without Paul Kantner) I lost interest. I had hoped for a continuation of Freedom At Point Zero's Hard Rock but that was not to be. I really love this performance. It includes material like "Fast Buck Freddy", "Rock 'n' Roll Is Good Time Music", "Jane" (a personal fave of mine) and "Fooled Around And Fell In Love" (a freakin' great song). The sound is pretty good as well, there are a few flaws already pointed out above. Enjoy Everyone, Rosebud did pick another great  one!

JustDave's Notes:
I ripped the audio with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to edit some of the track marks and add the fades as needed at the beginning and end of the show. No EQ or Noise Reduction was used. No remixing or remastering done. The DVD had lossy audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps aligning all sector boundaries, using Trader's Little Helper.

The sound of this DVD is pretty good for being a TV recording. Instruments are pretty clear in the mix, from the cymbals to the lows of the bass. Not to low as to muddy up the mix either, just right to make the sub woofer go bump.

I am a huge fan of Nazareth, Dan McCafferty was such an inspiration to me. My Thrash band Psychosis, some of our early shows were opened with a hyper speed "Razamanaz" (think Slayer Reign in Blood era). It was in our set for a while till we gave into the play Metallica screams, then it was replaced by "Trapped Under Ice" ("they don't play it, we played it faster" he said with a snicker).

Sorry to only offer this in MP3 but the waves tested 100% MPEG so it's here in 320kbps. It's our first appearance on The New JustDave's Place for Patti Smith. It was recorded for King Biscuit Flower Hour. It has been bootlegged by many, this is the only copy I have so it will have to do. I loved Patti Smith's music, I bought a couple of her records by chance. It was through this add in a magazine that gave you like 6 records for a penny if you bought like 8 more at regular price in a certain amount of time. 2 of them I ordered was The Patti Smith Group's Horses & Radio Ethiopia releases. I now own all her stuff, but her early records are my favorite.

A lot of my favorite memories are my parents reactions to some of the bands I watched on TV. One of my favorites is my Dad's reaction to seeing Gilda Radner spoof Patti Smith on Saturday Night Live. The character was Candy Slice when it was done my Dad said "Son they are just bad" and went to bed. I can't remember the real musical guest on that show but Gilda's spoof was great. Just as great as John Belushi spoofing Joe Cocker and Mark Blankfield spoofing Bruce Springsteen on the show Friday's!

So I haven't been taking care of my fellow Funk Fans in the recent past so I thought I would correct that. One of the best ways I figured I could do that is share this Funky Jam at The Wanee Music Festival in Live Oak Florida, USA. The story is a volcano eruption in Iceland forced the closing of air space and restricting flights. Due to this, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings were to play the Wanee Music Festival but couldn't make it. The Funky Meters and Dumpstaphunk were to be before and after Sharon Jones so they decided to meld their bands together and cover the time for the promoters. The result is some very Funky Improvisation by musicians that don't normally play together. I mean You can hear someone in between songs laughing about the organ player having a wah-wah peddle on his organ. I can't get enough of this show, it has a vibe of pure pleasure to it.

Dougie Thomson – bass, synthesizer, backing vocals
Bob Siebenberg – drums, percussion, backing vocals

This is not only a very fine performance but it sounds damn good as well. It's right at the time when Roger Hodgson and Rick Davies were hitting their stride as song writers. That just right mix of Prog-Rock and Pomp-Rock that they fine tune to create their next 3 albums. There are also quite a few live staples in this show. Personally if I don't hear "Rudy", "School", "Ain't Nobody But Me" and "Crime Of the Century" it's not a Supertramp gig.

JustDave's Notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to re-edit some track marks, add a fade out at the end of the show. No EQ or Noise Reduction was used, and no remastering or remixing. I also double the volume to give it a little more punch. There is a TV hum which is most audible during the non music parts of the recording.

Pat & band are in great form for this show. The band actually only rehearsed one encore but pulled off an awesome rendition of their Paul Revere & the Raiders cover "Just Like Me" from Pat's 1981 album "Precious Time". This show marks the sound turn for Pat Benatar's music. She move to a more MTV Top 40ish direction that I didn't follow her into. She did however, despite my not buying one of them, continue to make hit records.
