Now Rosebud doesn't just rate her Queensrÿche bootlegs on sound. She also rates them on how well Geoff Tate does the scream on "Take Hold Of The Flame". They did it as the encore and Geoff hits the highs so Rosebud said post it. Now she also says that you have to give a little on the sound quality. This was a simulcast, live as it happens, some times they have sound glitches. This one did not have the clearest sound but the band was on fire the whole show. The artwork for A Measure of Success is included since this version has none.

Harpo's was packed that night since WLLZ-FM gave the tickets out for free. WLLZ-FM was in a war with The Original Home of Rock & Roll The Riff WRIF-FM 101.1. WRIF was the first Underground FM Radio Station in Detroit. The studio was in a mobile home and they would move it when the feds were getting close. They went legit and parked the mobile home where the radio station is still located today. WLLZ and WRIF were trying to one up each other by trying to get the biggest scoop of a live broadcast on their station. The result is a lot of bootlegs were recorded in Detroit that year. That included WRIF's winning broadcast of Kiss at Cobo Hall, which became the Live And Uncensored Video release from KISS. WLLZ went off the air and went Kool Jazz in the 1990s. WRIF still Rocks Detroit, now WLLZ is back as an "Updated Classic Rock Radio Station" since they play Guns n' Roses, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins and other 1990s bands. Remember when Mom & Dad said "One day Led Zeppelin will be on the Oldies Station." Oldies Station, Classic Rock Station, a rose by any other name still has the thorns right?

The latest in the Mike Millard Masters being released through JEMS is this excellent recording from David Crosby & Graham Nash.

We recently posted a very good audience recording of the Stills-Young Band from Dan Lampinski. That recording highlighted some of the very things that added up to Neil Young leaving the tour early. This awesome recording from Mike Millard, shows you just what Stephen Stills and Neil Young were hoping for. The audience is right where David Crosby and Graham Nash want them. They hang on  every word and note coming from the stage. They laugh at the pair's self deprecating humor. The audience noise is almost non existent during the actual music but engaging with the duo in between songs. Unfortunately we only get the acoustic portion of the show the electric performances are missing. What we do get however is 'EFIN AWESOME!!!

This show comes from therushforum.com where they posted a 2TB vine of shows. This vine is a very comprehensive collection of bootlegs. It could be said they have all sources known to collectors at therushforum.com. This is a great recording from the Permanent Waves Tour. I love the album and was pleased to find this thir13en Remastered Pre-FM source for my collection. It's also great to  have such a nice sounding recording of my favorite song from Permanent Waves too, "Natural Science". "Natural Science" still has that epic feel to it without being of epic length. There are 10 different sources for this show on the Rush vine and to my ears this one sounds the best. Hope you enjoy it!!!

Dan Lampinski is as well known to bootleg collectors as Mike Millard for his quality audience recordings. This one such recording from the short lived Stills-Young Band and tour. Hoping for the musical and monetary success of the Crosby-Nash album and tour, Stills-Young didn't really get what they wanted. According to lots of sources including Neil Young, Stephen Stills was not happy on the tour, and it kept getting worse. Neil Young was getting more of the favorable press and response from the audience. The more Stephen Stills paid attention to it the more he got depressed and drank. This became a vicious circle that built to a point where Neil Young left the tour.

In the recording you can hear Still's voice is a little road raw. You can also hear some audience members that favor Young over Stills. You also get to hear Neil Young tell the audience to quiet down during the acoustic set. This shuts up the cat call guy sitting close to our dear taper thankfully. He's the reason it's only a Very Good Audience Recording instead of Lampinski's normal Excellent Audience rating...Oh and the rhythm section is Joe Walsh's solo rhythm section...just had to point it out.

The flac set is 24bit and is 3.2GB but don't worry I the average speed I got as a free user was 8MB per second...so enjoy!

This show was the one that BigO chose to post when Chester Bennington died. I tell you for my oldest son Spider it was like when John Lennon was shot to us older Rock fans. Spider actually introduced me to Linkin Park as one of his favorite bands. The music spoke to him very deeply. You see Spider has Asperger's Syndrome so was bullied in school. Something that the bullies found was a mistake because I taught my son to stand his ground. He knows how to fight and will if provoked. To add to the bully's confusion after being punched he would be shot with a Nerf Star Trek Phaser. (that's my boy!)

Included below is what BigO had to say about Chester's death:

CHESTER BENNINGTON R.I.P. 1976-2017

Linkin Park lead singer Chester Bennington has died aged 41, LA County Coroner says. The coroner said Bennington apparently hanged himself. His body was found at a private home in the county at 09:00 local time (17:00 GMT) on July 20, 2017. Bennington was said to be close to Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell, who took his own life in May. Formed in 1996, Linkin Park have sold more than 70 million albums worldwide and won two Grammy Awards. The band had a string of hits including Faint, In The End and Crawling, and collaborated with the rapper Jay-Z. In May 2017, Linkin Park released their seventh studio album, One More Light.

A key element in the group’s success was to fuse elements of metal and rock with rap and hip-hop to shape the nu-metal genre on songs such as Crawling, In The End and Numb. Arguably their biggest asset was Chester’s powerhouse voice. He had a huge, raspy vocal which suited their stadium-filling, singalong anthems. Whilst his vocal persona could be described as angry and harsh, in person he was warm, articulate and funny. The singer is said to have struggled for years with alcohol and drug abuse, and has talked in the past about contemplating suicide as a result of being a victim of abuse as a child. Bennington wrote an open letter to Chris Cornell on the latter’s death, saying: “You have inspired me in ways you could never have known… I can’t imagine a world without you in it.” Cornell would have celebrated his 53rd birthday on July 20. He hanged himself after a concert in Detroit on 17 May. - BBC

JustDave's Ramble:
If You're in the mood for some Jazz this Sunday Morning and it's piano time, Bill Evans is the man for you. This great double set from Bill Evans on a 1969 world tour. Two stops captured in soundboard quality. This one was my on the back porch drinking coffee choice this morning. I previewed the 2 Coltrane shows while cooking dinner last night. I am not going to ramble on (wow) because we know Bill Evans is the man when it's time to sit down with a cup of coffee and enjoy the morning!

What BigO Printed:
Thanks to pucholoco for sharing the Pescara Festival tracks on the net.

On July 18, 1969, Evans took his trio with Eddie Gomez and Marty Morell to Italy in order to inaugurate the Pescara festival located on the Adriatic coast. The group was recorded live on 11 tracks that were supposed to be broadcast for radio only. But much to the chagrin of Evans and his manager, the concert was released as limited edition on Japanese bootleg. This Lone Hill Jazz release contains Bill Evans’ Peccary Festival performance, marking the first time all of these songs are found on one disc.

The Bill Evans Trio was recorded in 1969 for broadcast at the debut of the Pescara Jazz Festival in Italy, though the pianist was outraged when the music was bootlegged by a Japanese label a short time later, followed by others, often with the songs mislabeled. In any case, Evans, along with his longest working trio, bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Marty Morell, are in top form during this hour-long set. Evans shines throughout the date, though his rhythm section plays far more than just a timekeeping role, interacting with him. Gomez’s fluid solos are highlights of Evans’ arrangement of the lovely ballad “Emily.”

Whether utilizing brushes or sticks, Morell’s drumming is first-rate, especially in the explosive rendition of Miles Davis’ modal masterpiece “Nardis.” The leader’s demanding “Very Early” is a delight, though the introduction is inexplicably clipped from his rendition of “Waltz for Debby,” a track also plagued with what sounds like noise from a monitor on-stage. One other amateurish flaw is that Evans is listed as the composer of Denny Zeitlin’s “Quiet Now.”

Meanwhile, Japanese music fan Toshio Fukuhara seems a bit on the harsh side with this comment at amazon.com:

It started out okay (maybe 3.5 stars), only to find the sound quality deteriorates gradually (ends with 1 star). The last and Bill’s best tune Waltz for Debby is almost inaudible and doesn’t even start from the very beginning. [Ed: Slight hiss/tape wear maybe but not inaudible.] I also noticed that, as if to escape from getting caught, the microphone was moving toward the end of this CD, and the sound gets “shaded.” This may suggest that this was an armature bootleg live recording. Unless you are a collector or Bill Evans freak, you’d be better off avoiding this CD, simply because it’s not worth the money. There are much better recordings of similar tunes and periods available, such as Quiet Now and Serenity from Charly Records.

Earlier in March 1969, the Bill Evans Trio held a performance in Holland.

This is a really nice sounding soundboard recording from the Self Destruct Tour to promote The Downward Spiral. Although I'm not a huge fan of Nine Inch Nails I do like The Downward Spiral a lot. It still gets play here around the house, as well as Further Down The Spiral which I also really like. I have to be in the mood for Industrial Music or Techno but there are some bands I really like. I mean I own a huge KMFDM collection including a lot of singles and maybe 2 different versions of each album...anyway Trent Reznor does have a hand in a few of my favorite Industrial albums. The Downward Spiral of course, also included would be Marilyn Manson's Portrait Of An American Family and Rob Halford's band 2wo released only one album Voyeurs which I really like.

There are according to NIN Live (where I downloaded this and more!!) 4 known sources for this show, this is source recording #1

Back, back, back in the day (yes we are that damn old) in the early days of the Thrash Metal Underground, Slayer was also included in the list of bands considered Black Metal. In the early days of the Heavy Metal Underground a band was considered to be a Black Metal Band if they wrote Satanic lyrics. It didn't matter if they played Thrash like Slayer or Heavy Metal like Mercyful Fate. This was before the Norwegian Black Metal scene built a sound on the recordings of 2 bands (actually 3 but Hellhammer is Celtic Frost) Bathory and Hellhammer/Celtic Frost. Even though a lot of the Norwegian bands site Mercyful Fate as an influence the fans that followed them don't consider Mercyful Fate as a Black Metal band. I didn't really care but hey it makes for conversation. For me Slayer was an influence on that my band wanted to be faster than Slayer or Metallica....and we were.

This one is to help everyone to get over the hump today. The weekend is almost here so lets Rock! This is a great recording and the band sounds like they are really enjoying making music together. The audience sounds like they are really enjoying it too. They don't get in the way much but are present in the mix. It's a Millard recording of Stephen Stills and guest Bonnie Bramlett a name that should be a whole lot more well known in Classic Rock than it is. One of the most under rated vocalists of the 1970s along with Marcy "Marcella Detroit" Levey. Both ladies had more Soul in their voice than a church choir. Enjoy my friends!!

Jack Russell passed away August 7, 2024 due to complications from Lewy Body Dementia, he was 63.

I remember the first time I heard Great White's self titled debut album. My guitar player and I had gotten together to talk music so we each could see where the other is coming from musically. I showed up at his place with a stack of LPs and cassettes and a bag of weed. We sat for hours getting high and listening to each others offerings. After telling him besides the Thrash and Punk I had a big collection of commercial Metal bands like Krokus and Tesla. He pulled out Great White's debut, the original edition not the remixed version, I loved it. I ended up leaving him my Voivod & Candlemass lps while I took home his Dead Kennedys and Great White Lps. The first record has an edge to it that Great White's following lps didn't. Their sound was heavier but the following albums had some great songs no doubt about it. This is a nice sounding recording that I think you guys will all enjoy.

Another BigO Archive show from The New JDP's Collection. I can't believe how many shows I downloaded from them over the years. I have started re-cataloguing my Bootleg Drives with certain collections in their own folders. I have all my boots cataloged by Genre, Artist, Year which is how I have my CDs and such cataloged. What I'm now doing is cataloging certain collections apart from the rest such as Mike Millard recordings, BigO postings, Tool Drive, Black Sabbath Family, Deep Purple Family and other bands that have larger collections than most. Anyway below is what BigO said about the post (I always copied their little blurbs). Hope you enjoy this one!

What BigO Said:
There are some jazz artistes with distinctive “voices”. Miles Davis was one of them. Cecil Taylor, on the other hand, defies being pigeonholed. His music has been described as “It’s fast and it’s furious. It’s very nearly incomprehensible…” To some, the pianist-composer is known for the “brilliance and audacious beauty of his music”. And the term “genius” is also seldom far behind.

Try listening to 1985’s Winged Serpent and you might find yourself crushed under the weight of the densely textured free jazz. Even on his solo piece here, one can easily imagine some internal battle raging on.

This was Taylor’s first time in Donaueschingen and the show included solos by Bill Dixon and Tony Oxley but unfortunately the radio station (SWR 2) did not air them. Perhaps these solos will surface one day.

This is what trumpeter Bill Dixon wrote about the gig in allaboutjazz:

In October, I went to Baden Baden, the Donaueschingen Event, at the invitation of Cecil Taylor… The format for the performances had… three solos that preceded a short break that then led into a tutti performance by the trio. Oxley always took the first solo orchestrated to permit him maximum leverage and continuity to reveal the focus of his musical interests and concerns.

I took the second solo which let me, knowing what had preceded my entrance and what was to follow it, work with maximum freedom [and]… paved the way for the next solo which was that of Taylor.

The short period of silence that followed permitted the dynamic of the totality of the trio to come to terms with all that had existed [musically] previously. A fitting way, in my opinion when one is able to understand and appreciate both the freedoms and responsibilities that are resolutely attached to this kind of performance that the uninformed prefer to label, erroneously as “free”.

This is a great sounding show from the Bill Conners era of Return To Forever. Bill Conners left in April 1974. He stated that he had musical differences with the shift toward a more Rock fusion sound, which he likened to Mahavishnu Orchestra. He also stated that he had a growing dislike for Chick Corea's Scientology way of running the band. After leaving Bill Conners started acting as a session musician playing with John Abercrombie and ex-bandmate Stanley Clarke. Bill Conners also released his own albums which included some acoustic guitar recordings. Of course all fans know he was replaced with one Al Di Meola. So let's all enjoy a little Return To Forever this Sunday Morning!
