justdave notes:
I ripped the audio with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to re-edit some track marks, add a fade in and fade out, and crossfade the two sets together. No EQ, noise reduction or remixing was done. The show was edited to run set 1 & 2 continuously, if burning to CD-r use the set marks as you CD1, CD2 separation.

Ann Wilson sings some songs from bands that have influenced her, some solo tracks,  and some Heart tracks. The Heart tracks have newer arraignments. Some of the covers may be a little surprising, such as Peter Gabriel's "Don't Give Up", Jimi Hendix's "Manic Depression", or Yes's "I Seen All Good People". The cover of Yes' "I Seen All Good People" is only the "You're Move" section of the song and segues into The Black Crows "She Talks To Angels".

Heart is, according to the Wilson sisters, on hiatus. This is due to a strain in the sisters relationship after events that took place at a Heart concert at the White River Amphitheater, Auburn, Washington. Ann's husband allegedly assaulted Nancy's 16 year old twin boys (he has plead guilty). Since this incident the sisters have only communicated through other people, not directly. Both have formed solo bands with members of Heart, and are on tour separately.

A nice sounding recording from Anathema's Silent Enigma Tour. This is during Anathema's Gothic Doom phase. The Death Metal vocals are now gone as well as founding lead vocalist Darren White. Vincent Cavanagh will be the bands lead vocalist for their career. Vincent's vocals on this recording remind me of the "clean" vocals used by Tomas Gabriel Fischer's on Celtic Frost's Into The Pandemonium album. Anathema would take a turn towards Progressive Rock in their future releases.

JustDave's Notes:
- Thank you again to Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending in his vinyl for encoding.
- Thank you to Detective Draftervoi for his deep dive into the net for news paper coverage of The Outlaws and Johnny & The Distractions. You always go above and beyond.

Recording Notes:
- On the cue sheet it states that there is an "Ovu" test tone at the beginning of Side A but the tone is not there. Did the mastering room for get to put the test tone on the record.

Known Faults:
- The sound on this King Biscuit record set is not quite the same as I have gotten used to over the past couple years editing King Biscuit vinyl for Sam Elliot's Mustache.
- The volume was a little uneven on this one, each section seemed to have it's own volume and the song "Fox Trot Lilly" the drums were mostly shifted to the right side and overpowered the left side.
- It was not mastered at The Master Cutting Room by JOE. It was mastered at a place I can not decifer. It looks like a @ sign with a + sign on the end and an SP or 5P all in script.


Editing Notes:
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LPs prior to playback.
- A carbon fiber record brush, then a microfiber disc cleaner was used on the records 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 using distilled water prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable & tone arm balanced: Needle Tracking & Azimuth set: Needle Pressure & Antiskid digitaly set:
- Computer Soundcard stereo field maximized.
- Goldwave set to record while filtering any DC 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 the situation.
- Raised the volume of the commercials to match that of the music and voice overs.
- A rumble filter with an initial cut off of 50khz and a static steepness of 2 was used to lessen the needle noise on the commercials due to having to raise the volume to match that of the music and voice overs.
- Volume differences adjusted after all other editing was finished.

Other Notes:
- At first I wondered what was so different about The Outlaws sound on this recording from all other's that I have and it's that there are only 2 guitar players not 3. Also the newer songs seem to lean more into the Hard Rock elements instead of the Southern Music elements. Third the harmony vocals just are not there either.
- The Outlaws would be dropped by their label after the tour due to poor sales of the 1982 album Los Hombres Malo. The following tours would have shows at small clubs and slow sales of later releases.
- Hughie Thomasson ended up joining the Johnny Van Zant lead Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1996 staying with the band until 2005. Hughie died in his sleep from a heart attack September 9, 2007 from a heart attack, he was 55.
- Johnny & The Distractions were described to me as kind of a Bruce Springsteenish musically. I would say some Bruce elements are there as well as some Bryan Adams and John Cougar. This is not to say they are not an entertaining band or their music is derivative of the named bands. It's just a way of giving a little idea of what they sound like. Definitely a high energy band.
- 1982 was the year Johnny & The Distractions got their big shot. Unfortunately for the band mistakes were made, the biggest of which was concentrating on the area around where they came from. They did not get a lot of tours outside that area. They did tour with Joan Jett and The J.Geils Band and had a semi-hit with "Let It Rock" but no follow up single to help push the band over the top.

Everyone knows I love my Punk Rock. Black Flag, the Henry Rollins era, is one of my favorites. When Henry Rollins joined Black Flag, Greg Ginn was already taking his band into territory other than Harcore Punk. Black Flag started playing slower riffs in a sort of proto-Sludge Metal style that did influence Eyehategod, Grief, Down and other Sludgey Doomy worshipers of the riff. This unknown generation cassette sounds pretty good and comes from that time when Black Flag grew their hair and started to play slower, some in the crowd seem to give Henry a hard time about it pleasing Henry of course.

Did not know there was actually a Pre-FM recording from the Black & Blue Tour till I found this (not really sure how long ago). When Rosebud & I came together we bond on our mutual love of all things Black Sabbath & Heavy Metal. I tell this story a lot, but I asked Rosebud to marry me at a Pantera, Black Sabbath concert. It was during the song "Becoming" by Pantera. I look over and see my 5foot 2inch girlfriend had her fist in the air singing along to the chorus "I'm born again with snake eyes, becoming God size" and I said "Please marry me", there was a couple next to us that heard Rosebud say yes and smoked a joint with us. It was a great night. This is Rosebud's 1st Rosebud Pick of 2022!! What a way to start!!

With all the politics and natural disasters in the news I didn't hear that Singer/Songwriter Un-Official Eagle J.D. Souther passed away until yesterday. I found out by surfing for bootlegs and the site had a post saying the same I'm saying. I just found out about it. All I have found is that he died September 17, 2024 at his home, he was 78.

It really has been the story for ages that the singer songwriter that influences others in a scene never attains the same heights as those he influences. Gary "US" Bonds, Del Shannon, Mitch Ryder and Frankie Miller for example never attained the heights of Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, John Cougar Mellencamp, or Bob Seger for example who were influenced by them. I actually had this discussion recently with a friend and he said Bob Dylan influenced a lot of people in the 1960s and he's world famous (not in quotes because I'm not sure of the actual words it was a Stoner conversation). To which I replied Bob Dylan was influenced by Woody Guthrie or else he would have been a Little Richard style rocker. I read in one of the many biographies about him (I read only one book about him in the1980s) that he used to play the piano and jump around singing like Little Richard. Something that as a pot smoking teenager I couldn't imagine but think about it.

Back to J.D. Souther, look at the song writing credits of your favorite California Sound Country Rock artist's albums. Most likely J.D. Souther's name is on there. As a writer or co-writer. Linda Ronstadt, Chris Hillman, Glenn Frey, Don Henley, The Eagles, James Taylor all recorded songs written by or co-written with J.D. Roy Orbison had J.D. Souther do the vocal arraignments for his Black And White Night video concert (that one I read on Wikipedia)...Roy "Freaking' Orbison (wow)!! John David Souther was a big part in The California Sound's take over of the 1970's Before I end this I also want to point out that J.D. Souther was inducted into the Song Writer's Hall Of Fame.

Gary "Hoppy" Hodges drums, percussion

So while doing a little quick research on if this show had been officially released yet or not I found out something that I found really weird. There has actually been no official re-release of any Buckingham Nicks material since the initial release of their album. The Original Deluxe Expanded Edition by Polydor Records was actually a bootleg made in Korea. In the most recent interviews with Lindsey Buckingham about the material he stated he and Stevie Nicks have had conversations about needing to do something official about the material. He also states that is as far as the discussions have gotten. With the current state of Stevie and Lindsey's relationship they may never come together for this purpose. It would be nice for the fans if they could at least have a producer they trust come in and go through the tapes. The 2 former partners could then come in separately to approve or disapprove of the mixes and packaging. Lindsey seems sincere in wanting to do something with the material, with all sympathies to Stevie who says that the relationship was abusive, she may never want to and rightly so.

 Update: The Buckingham Nicks album was finally remastered and re-released by RINO Records on vinyl and CD. There is also an expanded edition that has single edits as bonus tracks.

Three great broadcasts in one convenient box set. These three broadcasts have been repackaged by a lot of bootleggers. This box set has awesome sound. The recordings used are of fine quality and very enjoyable. I was at the Cobo 1980 shows. I had tickets for every show for that run. I forget how many there were, all of them were recorded for the Nine Tonight album. Only a couple songs made the album, most came from the Boston 1980 run. My first time I went to a Seger concert was 1978 Cobo Hall Detroit for the Stranger In Town Tour. There was a Southern Rock band called Toby Beau opening. They had a hit single out called "Angel Baby". I remember Toby Beau's lead guitarist came out with a banjo and did like a 5 minute solo (although my Aunt who was there swears it was 15 minutes) before they played their album track "Bull Dog", which is about a gunfight. I have heard and seen many bands do a guitar solo. That was the first time I saw a band do a banjo solo. Bob was awesome that night in 1978. During "Turn The Page" Alto Reed was on wires playing on top of the amps. He then jumped up and was swung over the middle of Cobo Arena. He then did a Sax solo spinning in one direction then spinning the other way as well. I did not expect anything like that from Bob Seger, Kiss maybe, not Bob Seger. I have not missed a tour of Seger's, Rosebud and I saw him together on the last couple of tours. She said he was awesome. I told her you should have saw him in the 1970's...

I might get a few Anthrax fans upset when I say this but it's the truth. My favorite Anthrax eras are with Neil Turbin and John Bush on vocals. It's not that I don't like the Joey Belladonna era. I do but for one the Fist Full Of Metal debut is the sound of a very hungry band putting their best forward at their big shot. Each era also had their own sound. The change in song writing from Fist Full Of Metal to Spreading The Disease I myself didn't like. When John Bush joined he was a vocalist that liked to write, Joey Belladonna was a tell me what you want kind of vocalist. There was also production differences in all 3 eras. The John Bush era production to me was the strongest sounding. My favorite album Fist Full Of Metal has the drums too far up front. The Joey Belladonna era seems to be mostly mid-range, no bottom end. In the end it's just one music fans opinion, the opinion that really counts is the bands. Anthrax makes music from the heart in every era, it's amazing how a couple different parts can make a whole new machine!

justdave's notes:
I do not know the equipment used to encode the 2 record vinyl source nor do I know the generation of CD-r that I have. I did no editing or remastering of the recording, the fades were left as they were, the commercials have been deleted.

This show is also known as the No Animation bootleg. I have a couple different versions of this concert and this one IMHO is better because the others have a lack bass. I've included some art work from another version of the show for those who like to have covers.

While researching this show on the net I found that the original Pre-FM vinyl records are selling for about $125.

I started my Sunday Morning listening to a classic Miles Davis recording form Paris 1988 which was great. Sitting here drinking my morning coffee watching the sky trying to bring some much needed rain to a very dry Detroit this Rahsaan Roland Kirk show seems to fit the mood better. This great show was made that much better by Emperor Nobody who worked his remaster magic on it giving it that nice new bootleg shine.
