JustDave's Notes:
- Huge Thank You To Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending me his vinyl to encode!
- Thank you also to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache and avnut for input and assistance!

Known Faults:
- During Bill Minkin's wrap up of the show there is a couple spots of distortion that could not be removed without making the noise worse.

Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set balance and output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- There are two locked groove show promos at the end of Side C, one with a voice over, one without. They have been encoded.

Editing Notes:
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- A carbon fiber record brush, then a felt disc cleaner was used on the record prior to playback.
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave always set to record while filtering any offset.
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually no Pop Fix Noise Reduction was necessary with this rip.
- As with all King Biscuit shows I've edited so far, the commercials had a maked difference in volume to the music. Volume was adjusted to match the body of the show.
- A High Pass Rumble/Bump Filter with an initial cut off 40Hz was used on the commercials as the low volume they were mastered with causes needle noise.  

Other Notes:
- This was a fun project to work on. Pat Benatar and the band had a great couple shows to make up this recording. I've always loved Pat's choices of cover songs. On her first album there was 2 Smokey covers "In the Heat of the Night", and "If You Think You Know How to Love Me", John "Cougar" Melloncamp's "I Need A Lover", The Sweet's "No You Don't", Nick Gilder's "Rated X", Alan Parson's "Don't Let It Show" and Jenny Darren's "Heartbreaker". On Crimes Of Passion there was The Young Rascals' "You Better Run" and Kate Bush's "Wurthering Heights". On Precious Time she covered Paul Revere & The Raiders' "Just Like Me" and The Beatles' "Helter Skelter". Six of these covers are in this set, with "Helter Skelter" being chosen as the show closer.
- This show was released as Pat Benatar Greatest Hits Live.
- Pat Benatar has stopped playing "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" because of the gun violence in the United States. She says that she will not preach to her fans, that's not her place. She says as a citizen that she talks to U.S. Legislators about the situation. She however feels she can not sing the song when it personally makes her think of the violence in the world.

- De-clicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.
- As with all King Biscuit shows I've edited so far, the commercials had a marked difference in volume to the music. Volume was adjusted to match the body of the show.

Other Notes:
- Scandal's portion of the show was first broadcast as King Biscuit Flower Hour #KB 460 on February 27, 1983. This rebroadcast, King Biscuit Flower Hour Best Of The Biscuit #BOB 478, is longer in that it has one more Scandal track "Tonight"
- Saga's portion of the show was first broadcast as King Biscuit Flower Hour #KB 458 which was longer than King Biscuit Flower Hour Best Of The Biscuit #BOB 478, since it had 3 more songs "Don't Be Late", "Humble Stance", You're Not Alone", and "Briefcase".
- Saga's songs "It's Time (Chapter Three)" and "No Regrets (Chapter Five)" are part of a group of songs Saga called "The Chapters" which were about Legendary Physicist Albert Einstein. The band released "Chapters 1 thru 16". The story was intended to have 8 "Chapters" but the concept kept growing in scope. The only album all sixteen tracks appear on is "Live Chapters" no studio compilation of all 16 Chapters has been released.
- Scandal played 3 unreleased songs "Child Of The Night", "Tonight", and "I Don't Know Why I Can't Say No". The songs were later released on a Scandal's Greatest Hits Live CD.
- Both Paul Paul Schaffer, of David Letterman fame, and singer Jon Bon Jovi were early members of Scandal.
- Scandal was opening for the Portland Punk band The Sharks.
- Pat Benatar opened for Saga.

What a show!! Two sets of some of the best Jazz has to offer! The Horace Silver Quintet delivers an hour and a half of music in 5 songs. Lots of soloing and jamming on a theme here! Horace Silver is an awesome piano player, song writer, and band leader. Horace has always been able to surround himself with some of the finest players in Jazz. I'm glad I started my Sunday Morning Jazz Session with this show. It was the perfect soundtrack to watching the deer in my back yard eating pine needles off my trees, while I'm sipping on a nice cup of freshly ground French Roast Coffee (which I'm not sure if French even drink this nice dark roast, a name is a name). One of the deer came up and looked right in my living room window last night. It's my little Heaven on Earth...

Known Faults:
- One small section during "Talking To Myself" that has a pop in the same section for one quarter of the song. This was dealt with in editing.

Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set balance and output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- There are two locked groove show promos at the end of Side A. They have been encoded and moved to the end of the recording.

Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave always set to record while filtering any offset.
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.
- As with all King Biscuit shows I've edited so far, the commercials had a maked difference in volume to the music. Volume was adjusted to match the body of the show.

Other Notes:
- I don't know how many Greg Kihn Band shows I have edited but with each one I have become more of a fan.
- This show to me just seems that much better than the others. Maybe the band is just having a great show. You can tell the band is really having a good time at this show.
- I noticed in particular bass player Steve Wright's noodling over the riff is a little more inspired than before. For a great example just listen to the beginning of "Valerie" where the bass player and guitar player are interacting with each other playing around with the riff.
- Trivia note: The beginning drum beat to Little Richard's "Keep A-Knockin'" is what John Bonham was trying to play when he came up with the intro-beat to Led Zeppelin's "Rock N' Roll".

JustDave's Notes:
- Huge Thank You To Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending me his vinyl for me to encode!
- Thank you also to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache and avnut for impute and assistance!

Run Out Grooves:
Side A : KB-393-A MCR JOE
Side B : KB-393-B MCR JOE
Side C : KB-393-C MCR JOE

Known Flaws:
- The records had very few of the little dimples in the vinal and some superficial markings, none of which were of any consiquence to the sound.
- The only real flaw with this recording is that both bands deserve a complete King Biscuit Flower Hour progarm of their own.

Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- King Biscuit put 2 locked groove show promos at the end of Side C. Those are included
- Albums looked very clean upon visual inspection.

Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave set to record while filtering any offset:
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually with some noise reduction used depending on if it best served situation.
- Some minor flaws may still show after all the work, we are after all working with vinyl sources.

Other Notes:
- Before starting this project I had never heard Mink DeVille. My immediate reaction was a sound like Clarence Clemons and Roy Brittan of The E Street Band jamming with a sober Johnny Thunders on Old School Rhythm And Blues. With just enough Garage Rock to make the music a little dangerous live, I can see how Mink Deville fit in with the Early CBGB's bands. Like a lot of those bands Mink DeVille were stuck with the Punk Rock moniker. This could also explain why such a talented bands never really made it big. A lot of music listeners were "musically afraid" of anything to do with anything labeled as Punk Rock.
- Little River Band released their set from The Summit, Houston, Texas, USA October 7, 1981 as a Home VHS in 1981. The video has since been released on DVD in 2008.
- Mink DeVille released their set as a video release titled Live At The Savoy.

JustDave's Notes:
- Thank you to BiginV3 sending the vinyl to The Collective Of Live Music for digitizing.
- Thank you also to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache & avnut for impute and assistance.

Known Faults:
- Record 1 which is Sides A & C arrived from seller with dried dirt in the sleeve containing the album. It had to be hand rinsed with distilled water, then rinsed with Research Lab Super Record Wash, then cleaned in the ultrasonic cleaner. After which all the filters needed changed. Then the regular process I use of cleaning the record could be done as lain out in the editing notes.
- The dirt in the sleeve caused scratches and little dot impressions in the vinyl. This caused more pops, thumps and other noises that needed editing.
- I have nicknamed this "The Sandblasted Album Project".


Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels and balance before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- A locked groove show promo was included at the end of Side E, that was encoded.
- I normally include a songs intro with the song it's for. However Mary Robbins does a 3 minute story introducing his cover of Waylon Jennings & Willie Nelson's hit song "Good Hearted Woman" that should stand on it's own as a bit of comedy.

Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave set to record while filtering any offset.
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually, some noise reduction used depending on if it best serves the situation.
- Had to even out the volume levels as the voice overs were louder than the music & the commercials were quieter than everything else.

Other Notes:
- Host Larry Kenney not only did The Silver Eagle Cross Country Road Show. He did Westwood One's Monday Night Football radio coverage, was the voice of Count Chocula and Sonny The Coco Puffs Bird.
- Larry Kenny won Billboard Magazine's “Country Music Air Personality of the Year” in 1976 & 1978.
- Larry Kenny also was the voice of Lion-O and Jackelman in the original Thundercats Go! and is the voice of Skittles Taste The Rainbow.
- This broadcast takes place 4 months before Marty Robbins' death at the age of 57 on December 8, 1982. Robbins had undergone open heart surgery due to a heart attack on December 2, 1982. Marty Robbins had just been inducted into the Country Music Hall Of Fame only months before. Marty Robbins was also awarded Male Country Music Artist Of The Year in 1982.
- Floyd Cramer has played piano for Elvis Presley, Patsy Cline, Roy Obison and The Everly Brothers as well as host of Nashville's Hottest Stars.
- Floyd Cramer is known for a "slip note" style of playing that became the prefered playing style of Nashville artists t have on their songs.
- Floyd Cramer was named Country Music's Top Keyboardist from 1969-1974.
- Floyd Cramer was named to both The Country Music Hall Of Fame and The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in the same year.
- Floyd Cramer played on Elvis Presley's first RCA Records recording session in 1956. He also played on Elvis' last session before joining the Army in 1958.

Run Out Grooves:
Side A : KB-427-A MCR JOE
Side B : KB-427-B MCR JOE
Side C : KB-427-C MCR JOE

Known Faults:
- On visual inspection there is one long superficial looking scratch across Sides A & C not Side B.  
- Records very clean on arrival, cleaning on this one done out of habit.
- Volume on this one mastered kind of low causing vinyl noise (rumble/roar sound) more prominent.

Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- There are no promos included for this show, this doesn't happen often.

Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave always set to record while filtering any offset:
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.
- A 50khz cut off Highpass Filter was applied to some of the more quiet parts to mitigate some of the vinyl noise (rumble/roar sound).
- A couple times in the recording someone on stage with Graham Parker has there amp make a loud bassy noise. I tried to soften it but did not edit it out.
- Some minor flaws may still show after all the work, we are after all working with vinyl sources.

Other Notes:
- The Graham Parker portion of the show had been released on King Biscuit Flower Hour Records. King Biscuit Flower Hour Records folded and the CD went out of print. It has been picked up by a known grey area bootleg label and re-released.
- Sparks is an American band but Bill Minkin introduces them as being from Australia.
- The band version of Sparks did not last long. The group became a duo consisting of the Mael brothers.

Roots Of Heavy Metal post # 12

Not one single Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band exists that doesn't owe Cream's Heavy Rock (as it was some times referred to in those days..) a huge debt of gratitude. Like Led Zeppelin, Cream's music and live performances inspired all the Guitar God guitar solo's and lengthy drum solos so prevalent in the world of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.

justdave's notes:
I ripped the audio from the DVD's using DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to edit the tracks and raise the volume of the wave files. No EQ or noise reduction was used. There was broadcast problems between Disturbed and Rob Zombie's sets. The last track of Disturbed's set is cut off, and the first track of Rob Zombie's set cuts in. I added a little fade to soften the change a little. I edited the files to play as the broadcast was aired. If you want to make CD-rs you will have to determine your own CD breaks. This is the complete broadcast edited from a 6 DVD set.

Rare Australian Westwood One Radio Show. Not very many of these shows were produced. I found this one on Guitars101.com.

It's a great concert from a service that I only a few days ago found existed. Added bonus is that Clarence Clemons of The E Street Band joins The Queen Of Soul on stage for a rocking "Freeway Of Love". This is a must have for collectors and fans alike. You need this!!

JustDave's Notes:
- Huge Thank You To Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending me his vinyl for me to encode!
- Thank you also to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache and avnut for impute and assistance!

Run Out Grooves:
Side A : KB-694 A AD 8-23-87 MCR JOE
Side B : KB-694 B MCR JOE
Side C : KB-694 C MCR JOE

Known Faults:
- Visual inspection shows some minor vinyl flaws that should be easy to edit around if they cause any type of noise. For the age of the vinyl it looks nice.
- Side B looked to be pressed slightly out of round. Fortunately there seems to be no problems when the LP was played.
- Record set was not mastered very well. The different segments all seem to have their own volume settings. This was dealt with in the editing process.

Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded. It's also not listed on cue sheet.
- King Biscuit put 2 locked groove show promos at the end of Side C they have been included.
- King Biscuit Flower Hour pressed the albums with the commercials half as loud as the music and voice overs. This was dealt with in the editing process.
- Mason Ruffner released Mason Ruffner Live in 1999. It contains the song "Gypsy Blood" and the notes say that it was recorded at The Living Room, Providence, Rhode Island, USA July 1987 (from Mason Ruffner.com) PDF included in extras folder.
- Draftervoi found some articles from newspapers that show Jon Butcher played the Hollywood Palace July 16, 1987 (included in extras folder). He also played The Living Room twice around the time that Mason Ruffner did. Mason Ruffner is reported to have played The Hollywood Palace close to the same time as Jon Butcher but no info was found to confirm that

Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave always set to record while filtering any offset:
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.
- Some minor flaws may still show after all the work, we are after all working with vinyl sources.
- Raised volume of the commercials 50% to equal the volume of the show.
- Evened out the volume of entire show, but did not normalize/maximize audio.

Other Notes:
- I went into this project not knowing Mason Ruffner's music at all. I would say he writes Southern Blues with a touch of Louisiana Swing and some Rock-A-Billy thrown in for texture.
- Mason Ruffner writes music that lets the notes and vocals breath while Jon Butcher has a more dense sounding style.
- Although Jon Butcher is clearly influenced by Jimi Hendrix, he shows influence in his song writing by Robin Trower and Frank Marino. "Holy War" could be a Frank Marino song the way the keyboards interplays with the guitar. Both were heavily influenced by Hendrix but each had their own way of crafting a song. Stevie Ray Vaughan is also heavily influenced technically but sounds nothing like Jon Butcher, Frank Marino or Robin Trower.
- Jon Butcher shows some more of his influences by playing Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground". You can hear the R & B influence in his music like Robin Trower (Check out Trowers album with Maxi Priest).

Side B : BOB-444-B MCR JOE
Side C : BOB-444-C MCR JOE

Known Faults:
- While checking the vinyl I did notice some tiny dimples on Record 1. These can be found on records usually without any harm to the sound, records were super clean on arrival from Sam Elliot's Mustache.

Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- King Biscuit put the 2 locked groove show promos at the end of Side A I moved them to the end of the show.
- Show matches a bootleg FM broadcast I have on my hard drive. The show is called The Toys For Tots Concert The Palladium, Los Angeles, California, USA February 12, 1982 King Biscuit Flower Hour FM broadcast so that date has been attatched to this recording.
- Lead vocalist Jimmy Farrar addresses the audience throughout the show as Los Angeles and as The Paladium.
- Show has been officially released a few times so posting show on any forums would not be alowed.

Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.

Other Notes:
- Not one member of the original lie-up of Molly Hatchet is alive. (See Molly Hatchet Extra Info text)
- Second vocalist Jimmy Farrar has also passed on. (See Molly Hatchet Extra Info text)
- Molly Hatchet still tour without one original member in the band.
- Bobby Ingram, who joined the band in 1987, has been leading the band without any original members since 1992. Except for between 2005-2017 when Dave Hlubek returned to the line-up as a "special guest"

I have been listening to a lot of Mason Ruffner lately after I encoded a Mason Ruffner / Jon Butcher King Biscuit Flower Hour for Sam Elliot's Mustache and The Collective Of Live Music (of which I am a member). Draftervoi had this tape in his collection encoded and ready to go. He sent it to me so I could listen to it and post it on The New JDP.

Draftervoi is in the middle of encoding and posting Sam Elliot's Mustache's collection of NBC The Source Pre-FM Radio Show Vinyls at Voodoo Wagon as well as other goodies. He let us scoop him on this recording. I highly recommend that you check out what Draftervoi is laying down at Voodoo Wagon!

This Mason Ruffner is a fabulous concert from a musician I actually was just introduced to and am sorry I didn't listen to him in his day. His mix of Blues, Louisiana Swing and Rock n Roll Roots is a great listen!!! It may be rooted in Blues but Mason Ruffner's music makes you want to move and have a good time at the party!!!

Draftervoi's Original Notes:
Jon Butcher / Uncle Sam's, Nantasket Beach, MA (also sometimes identified as Hull, MA.  There is a Facebook page identifying it as having been in Nantusket Beach) The track list seems to match some of the BBC Rock Hour show set list (which I don't have so I can't compare to see if it's the same show).

Graham Parker / Park West, Chicago
Note:  There is a KBFH show from 1982 that may be a longer version of this show Again, I don't have that one so I can't compare it.

Greg Kihn Band / Channel, Boston, MA
The tracks are the same as those on the BBC Rock Hour #420 recording.

Jon Butcher Axis
Jon Butcher – Guitar, Vocals
Derek Blevins – Drums
Chris Martin - Bass

Greg Kihn Band
Greg Kihn - vocals, guitar

This is a great find! Jon Butcher Axis bootlegs are kind of rare, and here we have one in fine Pre-FM quality. Rounding out  the show is Graham Parker & The Greg Kihn Band. The D-man hit it out the park again! Thanks Draftervoi!!
