Finally a stand alone version of the Earth, Wind & Fire set from California Jam 1. It was only available in an incomplete set from the radio broadcast of the complete concert. This soundboard recording sounds awesome for the it's age. It comes from the private collection of a California collector. From the story told by the uploader this collector had to have been a technician at the show. The soundboard recording also had ambient sound mikes on the stage. All my fellow Funk fans you want this one!

Anybody who has followed this blog for a while knows I have a deep love and respect for musicians who push the boundaries of music to the edges. Nils Petter Molvær's use of electronics (ie samples, loops, effects, dubs, sub woofer pumping bass tones, and even turntables on this recording) makes for one genre expanding experience. Nils Petter Molvær's music will be appreciated not only by Experimental Jazz fans but fans of Post Rock, Dub, Progressive Rock, and Krautrock as well.

What BigO Said:
Thanks to survivor69 for sharing the show at Dime.

survivor69 noted:
One of the few shows organized by the Italian RAI during 1980 from an idea of Pasquale Santoli to unite some famed soloists with RAI Big Band, here is Shepp paying tribute to the blues orchestrations of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn with some classic tunes… Also included is a LONG radio introduction in ITALIAN with bio notes and commentaries, featuring a telephone interview with original promoter Filippo Bianchi.

JustDave's notes:
Another show from the BigO Archive via The New JDP. Not saying I am or will become an official BigO archive. It is just that I have quite a bit of Jazz shows from years of visiting BigO. So when I post one of their shows I figured I would say so. This is an awesome performance...I think you all will enjoy this one!

A very good friend of mine introduced me to Beth Hart by playing some of the live recording she made with Joe Bonamassa. This recording features Beth with her own group rocking through a fine set of old school Blues influenced Rock. I really love this recording and have had it in heavy rotation  for a while now.

justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to adjust the volume and re-edit some track marks. No EQ or noise reduction was used. I seperated all the tunings and false starts from each track so that you could listen to just the songs if you so wish. I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps because the DVD had lossy audio.

This DVD is said to be dress rehearsals for Don Kirshner's Rock Concert, and seems so with there being no real audience. It is known that some bands were filmed with no audience present and then the audience was edited in later. This was confirmed by Kansas, who were on Kirshner Records. The band released their Rock Concert performance with their Sail On Box Set and talked about the filming in the intro to the DVD footage. So this could actually be a show taping. At the end of the last track the director thanks Ambrosia then tells the crew to prep the stage for John Cougar as the audio fades. They retake a few songs because of technical difficulties, if it was a dress rehearsal they wouldn't need a retake of  Your The Only Woman because of a faulty drum mic. So I really think this is an actual taping that the audience will be dubbed in. Either way it's a pretty cool glimpse behind the scenes of Don Kishner's Rock Concert.

Just like the Tool and Red Hot Chili Peppers posts This is a Before The Fame Post...U2 were just becoming known to the world when this show was recorded. I personally don't remember U2 on MTV until War was released and the "New Years Day" video came out. At any rate the band was not known that well. When I went to buy Boy at my local record store the guy behind the desk had no idea who I was talking about. Because of high energy kick ass performances like this one would soon have the world a buzz. U2 would not only conquer arenas they filled football stadiums around the world. To me it seemed like they went from Detroit's Harpo's Concert Theater to The Pontiac Silver Dome Football Arena over night. Deservedly so too!!!

Original Upload Comments:
* "The Ocean" was played twice (you can hear a very small snippet of this at the end of the second "11 0' Clock Tick Tock"), this was unfortunately left out of the broadcast
* DJ starts talking very quickly at the end of "Out of Control"

Included in this download is a soundboard recording of the bands soundcheck. It was hosted in MP3 224kbps on the drive and is included in it's own folder as a bonus to all.

This is a very nice sounding recording from Pure Prairie League's tour to promote their 7th studio LP Just Fly. This is would be the final tour of this line-up Tim & Larry Goshorn left to form The Goshorn Brothers Band while George Powell retired from the music business to become a hog farmer. Michael Reilly kept the band going eventually hooking up with Vince Gill. Alas when most people refer to Pure Prairie League it's usually for being the springboard for Vince Gill's huge career in Country Music. Vince sang lead vocals on Pure Prairie League's only Billboard Top Ten Hit "Let Me Love You Tonight". The song, which also featured saxophonist David Sanborn, would stay in the Top 40 for 11 weeks. I remember seeing Vince Gill on a game show hosted by Chuck Woolery (can't remember which one), Vince identified himself as the former singer of Pure Prairie League and an out of work song writer, can't remember if he won anything either.

This show is just beautiful beyond words. The voice of the vibes blends so nicely with the sound of an orchestra proven ever so exquisitely on Gary Burton's release Seven Songs For Quartet And Chamber Orchestra which was also recorded in Hamburg. No worries though, none of this recording was used for that album. I can not forget to mention the guitar work of both Mick Goodrick & Jerry Hahn, drum work of Ted Seibs & Roy Haynes and of course the bass playing of Steve Swallow. Everyone plays exactly for the music, no over playing here. There is an art to knowing when and what to play. When to let a musical passage "breath" and when to make it overcome the senses. Emotional tension and release, all are used to great effect during this all to short half hour of music.

This is a great recording, you almost could mistake it for an FM or Soundboard so much respect to the original upoader, thank you for your share. I downloaded it from a blog called ijwthstd. It's a nice blog with many different artists so check it out for another music outlet.

I stumbled upon the music of Amythyst Kiah by way of a download page I use that has both commercial releases and bootlegs. When I read the description of Amythyst Kiah's work I downloaded her debut album. Her music has been called Gothic Folk, Acoustic R & B, or Modern R & B. The description of her voice was that it was comparable to Joan Armatrading. It also recommended Amythyst's music to anyone who love Joan Armatrading's music. That is big freaking shoes to give a new artist. So I downloaded her debut album. It has been in heavy rotation at our house since. Her debut album Wary + Strange really has made a fan of me. I am looking for her 2 independent albums although I hear that it's a completely different style of music. Oh yeah I almost forgot this show was one that she opened for none other than Classic Rock Legends The Who, a very nice gig for someone new to the business.

As far as can tell Bruce Springsteen is not selling this concert. He's released quite a few old shows. This early era show has really good sound and should be in your collection. I really don't know what to say other than, It's Bruce doing that thing he does best Rockin' the house.

Ray Gillan (R.I.P.) (Black Sabbath) lead vocals
Jake E. Lee (Ratt, Ozzy Osbourne) guitar
Greg Chaisson (Surgical Steel) bass
Eric Singer (Black Sabbath) drums, percussion

justdave notes:

The original uploader uploaded each show separately, so I put them together, found the artwork online, now none of us has to pay the ridiculous price copies of this bootleg are going for (and it's not cheep).

This is a nice collection of performances by the "Supergroup" formed by former members of Black Sabbath, KISS and the Ozzy Osbourne Band. Rather ironic actually that another former singer from Black Sabbath would form a band with a former Ozzy Osbourne guitar slinger. Ray Gillan had replaced Glenn Hughes during Black Sabbath's Seventh Star Tour. During the sessions for Eternal Idol Ray and Eric jumped ship. Ray, Eric & Jake added Greg Chaisson and Badlands was formed. This compilation is from the bands tour to promote their first album. The band was still fresh but the harmony was already dying. Eric Singer left before the recording of the second album to join Kiss. Ray Gillan left Badlands before the 3rd album demo sessions. Just 5 years after forming Badlands, Ray Gillan would die from AIDS related causes


Ray Gillan died of A.I.D.S. related complications December 1, 1993, he was 34.

Jake E. Lee went on to play with Wicked Alliance & Red Dragon Cartel

Greg Chaisson went on to play with a few other bands even Red Dragon Cartel but is semi-retired after a bought with cancer.

Eric Singer is now impersonating a very famous cat!

The Traders Den torrent tracker is shutting down. I've been a member for some time and have a pretty good ratio so I'm downloading as much as I can before October 19th. A sad occasion but it will bring a lot more shows to my collection. That in turn brings more to yours. This is one of those recordings, a Pre-FM Ambrosia show how about that. This should help with the it's only Wednesday blues....
