Well here is another of the Mike Millard Masters & 1st Generation Cassettes being released by JEMS. This time everybody's favorite working men Rush. This was during the transitional period where shorter songs and keyboards started taking over the Rush machine. The older songs would start to be relegated to a couple medleys for a time.

The  addition of Geddy Lee's keyboards and peddles just added to the spectacle of Rush. A band that by this time in their live career they didn't make perceptible mistakes during a performance. You have to watch the big screen to catch the hints of a mistake. Neil Peart would scratch his head really quick if he thought he made a clunker. Alex Lifeson kept his head down if he made a mistake but Geddy Lee would laugh. If Geddy Lee made what he thought was a goof he would throw his head back and smile. All the while the bad note or drum hit wasn't noticed by the mass of fans in front of them. At least this was my take away from Rush live. I'll tell you, and I don't want to come off preachy, since I stopped partying hard at shows I enjoy them more. I notice more and remember more. I went to see Emerson, Lake & Palmer opening for Jethro Tull at Pine Knob with my friends. My buddy Joe raved about Jethro Tulls set. I had to remind him that he passed out after E.L.P.'s 3rd song. We left him sleeping on the hill till it was time to leave. He said "Really?" LOL!!! Enjoy the music!!

I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume and fix a few drop outs. No EQ or noise reduction was used. The DVD had lossy audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps.

A nice recording from The Special Forces Tour. Special Forces was the only early 1980's album that Alice toured to promote. Alice Cooper wouldn't tour again until The Nightmare Returns Tour in 1986.

Downloaded this from The LPLive Archive at lplive.net. They have what they think is every Linkin Park bootleg released. I don't know if it's true but they have a lot of stuff (I recommend it for all fanatics). This is one of the first soundboard recordings to surface by Linkin Park. It is a DVD audio rip from a DVD that had lossy audio so hence the MP3 format. The first known lossless recording of Linkin Park to surface was an audience recording from an October 03, 2000 concert in Des Moines, Iowa, US.

Now this recording was actually filmed by the band for a possible music video. The footage was never used. The band actually is really nervous and makes a lot of mistakes during the show. My son Spider is a huge fan and knew Chester personally (Spider worked at The Place Of Auburn Hills as guest hospitality he met a lot of musicians. I've heard some stories) Chester told him the film was too embarrassing because they blew their big Roxy debut. When I played this for Spider he said I had to post it...So this is a Spider approved post, Enjoy my friends!!

Wow! Can you believe it's time for Sunday Morning Jazz already. I don't know about you but I have had a busy week and I am ready to listen to some Jazz, sip my coffee, and watch the wind dance through the trees in my backyard.

What a show, what a recording the Legendary Mike Millard recorded the Legendary Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock! I really shouldn't have to say anything more but I am going to. This recording can be called soundboard quality! It is one of Mike MIllard's best recordings by far. That is saying a lot, but since it was such a laid back atmosphere Mike Millard was able to make a great audio capture. The audience never steps on the sound of the performance at all. The soundboard man had an awesome mix, everything presented on the stage is clearly heard. The performance is everything you would expect from two of the best keyboardists in Jazz...Enjoy the show my friends!

Don Williams' soothing baritone takes me back a long way. It is the music of my childhood. My Grandfather was a Jazz drummer very much in the Gene Krupa mode. So heavily influenced by Gene Krupa, my Grandfather never added a high hat to his drum kit even after Krupa did. So there was always a stereo at my Grandparents house and a nice collection of records. The Ink Spots, The Mills Brothers, Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich, and Don Williams who my Grandmother loved. There also was Rock records there that my Grandparents listened to as well. I have memories of sitting on my Grandfather's lap while he taught me how to hold drumsticks. I was learning drums while in elementary school. My Grandparents met at a USO Club. My Grandfather was in the US Navy and regularly sat in with the bands at the USO Clubs whenever he could. My Grandmother said "He was a little drunk and kept looking for his weekend pass under my skirt." I know...I have mixed feelings about that quote of ecstatic laughter and the "Oh my God Grandma I don't need to hear that!" feeling as well...Enjoy the show

Another Before The Fame post. Rush was out promoting their sophomore album Fly By Night. The album was not a huge seller and signaled changes to the bands already growing fan base. First and foremost came Neil Peart who's drumming and lyrics brought the song writing to another level. "By-Tor and the Snow Dog" was a huge step in the direction of Progressive Rock. A longer form song arranged of many shorter parts hinted at what was to come. The playing was tighter, the album sonically better, the label was not impressed. Thankfully the label stuck with Rush and Rush made Music History. It all started in a van that broke down on the band on the way to the show. They didn't make it till the following night. That story is in the notes with this post...Enjoy the early Rush!

Draftervoi's Notes:
Includes: the four page cue sheet booklet, the commercial format page, the affidavit, and a scan of a disc label. This show has also been "gray-marketed" as "Cape Cod 1981" subtitled "The New England Broadcast." From the sound samples on Amazon UK, I'm sure it's also sourced from the A Night On The Road LPs.

JustDave's Notes:
It's been a while since I posted any Ted Nugent so here is a Pre-FM show that spawned quite a few bootlegs. Ted Nugent's career was slipping at this point. The Intencities In 10 Citys album didn't sell well. To many fans it seemed like a throw together to satisfy Ted's contract. It was definitely not Ted's best work by far. Charlie Huhn and Clff Davies both left the band afterwards. The reunion with Derek St. Holmes on the Nugent album was welcome by Ted's fans but short lived. The following album St. Holmes was replaced by Brian Howe, who was replaced on the next album by Dave Amato, who now plays guitar for REO Speedwagon. Ted Nugent never really recaptured the glory days that the Ted Nugent, Free For All, Cat Scratch Fever & Double Live Gonzo albums brought but keeps motoring along with a very loyal fan base. The man has been playing Rock since 1963 quite an accomplishment. He's going out on stage or while hunting. Either way he would be doing what he loves but he has proven he is here to stay till the very end.

It's been a little while since I posted any Rap. A music that I actually really love. Old School Rap, some of it anyway, has a heaviness to it. The deep bass, pounding beats, the rhythm of the vocal delivery, the lyrical subject matter all give it a Heaviness and I love Heavy Music of all types. Also having grown up in Detroit it really speaks to me. I grew up 3 houses down from an auto salvage yard. It's where I got my first job. My Dad took me to the salvage yard office at 14 and told the owner "..he's starting to look at girls so he's going to need his own money". He wasn't wrong lol! Anyway it's a struggle getting out of the hood. For me, like Eric B. & Rakim, the way was music. The music of Eric B. & Rakim, my band Psychosis, or Black Sabbath for that matter reflects where we come from. Enjoy the show!!

Bongripper is an instrumental Stoner/Sludge/Doom Metal band from Chicago, Illinois, USA. As you can see they play some pretty long songs. The bands music is slow, reverberating, droning, pounding, and ambient. Yes it is meant to be listened to at very high volume, while very high. I love to listen to this band, and others like them (like Yob & Bongzilla), right in the stereo sweet spot. Right in the middle with the sub woofer on. Like Ambient Jazz, and Drone Music like Brian Eno, it can be really, for lack of the right term, transcendental. I know "it's Heavy Metal", but it can take your mind on a journey just like any other Psychedelic Music.

This flac set is made from the Master Tape of a recorder that I stumbled upon while looking through another blogs blog list. All of the shows he has on his site are his own recordings. They are also of Heavy Metal bands Death Metal, Black Metal, Doom, Sludge, Post-Metal etc. The sound quality is Excellent on this show I haven't downloaded any others yet if all of them sound this good I'll start collecting them all.

Hot off The Trader's Den, this should please both Rolling Stones and Mike Millard fans alike. The latest in the list of Mike Millard Masters being released by JEMS is a 1975 show from The Stones! I know I'm pleased as punch! The 1970s is my favorite era from The Rolling Stones, especially with Mick Taylor. I was a little disappointed when Mick Taylor left, but Ronnie Wood was just tailor made to be a Rolling Stone (and I just realized the pun maybe I should have written it as Taylor made lol). Just take a look at his look for example. Ronnie Wood and Rod Stewart had the Keith Richards hair do. The Faces live show presentation was the same as The Stones...drunk at the pub with my mates Rockin' n' Rollin'. Also The Faces wrote great Rock & Roll songs in the same vein as The Rolling Stones. Ronnie Wood's guitar playing style just compliments the hell out of Keith Richard's guitar style. At the start of the tour Ronnie was listed as just touring with the band helping out his friends. By December it was decided Ronnie Wood was a Rolling Stone. I do believe it wasn't till the 1990s that he was made an actual partner in The Rolling Stones.

So the flac file set is rather large at 1 gig. Upload.io says a free user can download up to a 5 gig file so it's just one file...Enjoy The Rolling Stones!

This is a Before The Fame Post...This is actually one of the earliest Tool soundboards to surface. The Green Jellö Loft was a studio/practice place where the band Green Jellÿ aka Green Jellö rehearsed their stage shows. They and the band Tool also played shows there which were basically huge parties. That is where this recording comes from, one of those parties. The bands debut E.P. Opiate was released 1992  almost a full year after this show. Tool fans may notice some differences in the songs structures from the later recorded versions. Like I said it's a before the fame post so things were just really taking shape here.

This is a Before The Fame Post...The Red Hot Chili Peppers were on tour to promote their album Mothers Milk. This would be the album that broke the band to a much wider audience. The bands cover of the Stevie Wonder track "Higher Ground" would gain heavy rotation on MTV when they used to play music videos. The album hit it's top by making #52 on The Billboard 200, eventually going Platinum.

Now I know most people know The Chili Peppers, but some may not know the bands type of humor. If school boy locker room sex jokes offend you do not download this show. The song title "Special Secret Song Inside" is what the band had to rename a song on The Uplift Mofo Party Plan when the record label refused to release the album with the songs original title on the jacket. I only go into this because there was a lady who tried to download a show here when I was trying out Fikper as a service. They had some popups that were porn adverts and she said she was not comfortable downloading because of my porn fetish. I don't want to offend, just share good music. So look The Red Hot Chili Peppers can offend some people so....

I know we have a lot of Carla Bley fans among us so there is no reason to try to sell people on this show from 1978. Carla Bley wasn't just a talented keyboard player and song writer, she was an excellent arranger. Charlie Haden who's no slouch at all three himself had Carla Bley arrange his compositions for The Liberation Music Orchestra (a great band). Carla also worked with Jack Bruce when he decided on delving into Jazz. It was a sad day when the World Of Jazz lost Carla Bley in 2023. On October 17, 2023 she passed from brain cancer at age 87. This is for all you out there who still miss her like I do...

By the way I downloaded this from the blog The Luxor Dream which is hosted by Titus. Titus has a vast array of music on his site. He also did the fantastic remaster of this show and others on his site...check him out.

I remember getting on the bus one summer afternoon to get to Detroit's Hart Plaza. 101-FM WRIF Detroit's RIFF were holding free concerts at Hart Plaza all summer long. It became an annual thing in the following years. A lot of the shows were local bands, some were nationals with a local band opening. I attended quite a few of them but this day was kind of special. It was a free show with Detroit's own Marshall Crenshaw. Marshall Crenshaw had been popular in the Detroit New Wave Clubs, especially with the Neo-Rockabilly set. I hadn't been able to talk any of my friends into seeing him until the Hart Plaza gig. The man and the band kicked some major ass!! Plain and simple!! It was really cool to see this guy break out of Detroit and end up playing Buddy Holly in La Bamba.

This show was originally broadcast on WLIR-FM but the BBC picked it up for it's syndicated radio show the BBC College Concert. That as they say is how we get here....This is an awesome recording and an awesome show A Must Have!!!

Yep it's a Draftervoi! meaning a nice listening experience. As I'm sitting here posting this show I am listening to X's final album Smoke & Fiction which I got yesterday. The fact that when my friend gave it to me he said it was X's last album is why I decided to post this show. I haven't lived with it a few days yet but after 2 listens I like it. I mean it's not Los Angeles (X's debut album) but how many times can someone catch lightning in a bottle. My high school Heavy Metal band did a cover of "Johnny Hit and Run Paulene" at the end of our 3 song set in the battle of the bands part of the Homecoming Celebration. We were told it was totally inappropriate, so yeah that was a success!!

I had only heard The Waitresses songs "Christmas Wrapping" and "I Know What Boys Like" before hearing this recording. I must say I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. Actually I thought I would hate it but, I don't. I actually liked it enough to listen twice! Anyway friends Enjoy!!

This is the latest Mike Millard Master Tape released by JEMS. Emerson, Lake & Palmer were on tour for their Brain Salad Surgery album, considered by many fans to be their best work. My go to E.L.P. album is Tarkus but then again I have an eccentric taste I've been told. I mean my go to Black Sabbath albums are Sabatage, Never Say Die and Born Again. My go to Pink Floyd is Meddle, My go to Aerosmith is Draw The Line, with Santana it's Caravanserai and with Bob Seger it's Seven.

At the end of this tour the band would take an extended break to plan their next move musically. It wouldn't be till 1977 that the follow up album to Brain Salad Surgery would be released. Works Volume 1 came with mixed reviews, seen as "bloated and self indulgent" by most due to the "solo sides" by Emerson and Lake mostly. Myself I say, like Guns N' Roses Use Your Illusion 1 & 2, between Works Volume 1 and Volume 2 you can make one good album. But hey that's just my opinion other's are just as valid.

What shouldn't be over looked at this time though is E.L.P.'s triple live album. Welcome Back My Friends To A Show That Never Ends...Ladies And Gentlemen Emerson, Lake & Palmer. It's a 1970s Live album with no overdubs!! Like Deep Purple's Made In Japan and Grand Funk Railroad's Live Album nothing on the album was fixed!! In a time when live albums were either heavily overdubbed like say Judas Priest's Unleashed in The East where all Rob Halford's vocals were re-recorded. Some live albums like Kiss' Alive and Peter Frampton's Frampton Comes Alive were basically re-created in the studio. The live recordings for ELP's Welcome Back My Friends were also used for the King Biscuit Flower Hour broadcast. This post is turning into the script for Ben Hur so I'll end it by saying Enjoy the music.

This recording from Mike Millard had gone largely uncirculated due to the fact that Mike himself gave the recording a poor rating. From what people say he was his own worst critic (aren't we all). The recording is anything but poor, the audience is a little rowdy, which is why I give it a Very Good Audience rating rather than an Excellent Audience Recording rating.

This is a great show from this tour, which was cut short by the way, an accident with Ozzy on a motorcycle, I mean the guy didn't learn his lesson either given his quad runner accident in the early 2000s. This show was actually recorded as a favor to Mike Millard's concert going friend/recording partner Jim. Mike actually decided to record the opening act Ruby Starr & Grey Ghost, a Southern Rock band fronted by Black Oak Arkansas backup singer Ruby Starr. Which is also available on the blog (click here).
