JustDave's Notes:
2nd date of the Creatures Of The Night Tour

"Rock and Roll Hell" was dropped after the first three shows
"Keep Me Comin'" was dropped after the first two shows
"Shout It Out Loud" was dropped after the February 1 concert in Knoxville, TN
"Strutter" was moved to the encore section of the set list
"I Want You" hasn't been in a set since 1978

I was a major Kiss fanatic in my teen years. I had every album, a lot of memorabilia, and had been to a few shows. One of my 1st was in 1976 at Cobo Hall during the tour to promote Kiss Alive. When I heard the band was going to be at Cobo Hall for the Creatures Of The Night Tour I was ecstatic. When I saw the add it said special guest The Plasmatics and floor seats were 12 dollars US. When the show came and Ace wasn't in the band I was pissed there was no announcement but thought Vinnie Vincent did a pretty good job. I enjoyed the show and the Creatures Of The Night album as well. I thought it was a great return to form.

The Vinnie Vincent era didn't last too long and the Spinal Tapish replacing of guitarists began. There was a running joke amongst my musician friends that it was hard forming a band in the 1980s because Black Sabbath took all the lead singers and Kiss had all the lead guitarists. Vinnie Vincent actually never signed his employment contract with Kiss so never became a member of the group. That of course made it easy to get rid of him when the union had soured. Vinnie wanted a percentage of the group, which was never given to any replacement members. After Peter Criss & Ace Frehley left, Paul & Gene retained control of the band together. Even when Peter and Ace returned they had no say in anything.

Robby Krrieger and his friends run through some of Robby's solo material as well as some Doors classics. I don't know how many Robby Krieger bootlegs there are but I haven't seen many. This recording does have some his to it, which seems to come from Robby's equipment some how. At the beginning of the show Robby says they have been experiencing technical difficulties. As for the performance, this is really good show that Doors fans should definitely have. I personally love the fact that "Skip" Van Winkle is playing keyboards for him. "Skip" Van Winkle was a member of the Michigan Rock duo, Teagarden & Van Winkle, that was responsible for the great hit song "God Love And Rock N' Roll". They also served as Bob Seger's band for the Smokin' O.P.s Tour, so Motor City Boy makes the big time backing Robby Krieger!

Draftervoi's Notes:
Total time for this is over 80 minutes, so it won't fit on a single CD.

3 LP set, 5 sided, 6th side is blank

There is another Phil Collins Captured Live! show, numbered CL 1684, that may be a rebroadcast of these tracks. That show was broadcast on May 14, 1984 and is supposedly sourced from the Warner Theater, too... Last night of the "Hello, I Must Be Going" World Tour

I really don't need to tell you this is a great listen. It's a great encoding and a fine show too. Rosebud likes Phil's solo work a little more than I, but I will admit the guy can write Pop songs that people will eat up and make platinum. This Pre-FM catches Phil Collins leading his awesome band as he starts to dominate the Pop charts both solo & with Genesis.

I have been a fan of Anthrax every since I heard their debut album Fist Full Of Metal. My friend Metal Mike played it for me shortly after it's release. I went out and bought my first vinyl copy (which I wore out and replaced once then bought the CD). I was a little worried when I heard they replaced their singer Neil Turbin. When I bought the Armed And Dangerous E.P. I was a little disappointed with Joey Belladonna's vocals on the fake live re-recordings of 2 Neil Turbin era tracks. I like Joey's voice but he can't sing like Neil Turbin. When Spreading The Disease was released I was a little disappointed in it as there was a style shift away from the Fist Full Of Metal album. Any band who changes lead vocalists changes in style, it's inevitable.

I have to say that the next LP Among The Living (which solidified and broadened the new sound) is still in rotation to this day. That said I have to be truthful adding John Bush to the band was actually, for me, a pleasant surprise. I love Armored Saint and John Bush's voice is a big reason why. Now having John sing for Anthrax was as drastic a change as having David Coverdale replace Ian Gillan in Deep Purple. I however love every album by Anthrax John Bush sang on, as well as every Deep Purple record Coverdale sang on. I was also glad when Joey came back so I could once again see that line-up live, which I recommend they are still a great live band.

justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to add fade in at beginning and fade out at end. I also almost tripled the volume from the original source using Goldwave for that. No EQ, or noise reduction was used. The DVD had lossy Dolby MP3 audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320 while fixing sector boundary errors. I did this using Trader's Little Helper.

I never thought I would find a Pro sounding recording of YOB let alone a Pro-shot DVD bootleg! YOB is actually one of my favorite bands. When I say that I usually have to add that I listen to a lot of different music and I have favorites from every genre I listen to. YOB is a Transcendental/Psychedelic Doom Metal band. YOB uses a lot of the elements of Stoner Doom, long songs that build in density with both clean and growled vocals. In the studio singer/guitarist/founder Mike Scheidt uses effects on his voice that makes him sound something like a cross between Ozzy Osbourne and Geddy Lee. Even when using a Death Metal grunt. Listening to YOB while smoking some of Michigan's finest and at heavy decibels takes my mind away from everything, much in the way of Pink Floyd will. Live however Mike uses no effects on his voice giving it more raw emotion and power.

If you're into Black Sabbath, The Obsessed, Saint Vitus, Cathedral, Trouble, Pentagram, Candlemass with a helping of Pink Floyd or maybe even Hawkwind, YOB is a band you should check out. They are basically an updated version of everything that Stoner/Psychedelic Music fans love. I highly recommend YOB to you all!

Westwood One also broadcast this show as #98-48,  #99-44, and #99-48, with the songs in a different order, but all of those set lists omitted Mr. Miller's cover of Muddy Waters classic "Rollin' and Tumblin'."

So all I will say is 3 things You get a quality Steve Miller Band performance. It's a quality Pre-FM recording. It's a Daftervoi encoding of said recording. That's enough.

This time for Sunday Morning Jazz We have a great 3 CD box set from Miles Davis. For those who have downloaded Transmission Impossible CDs in the past know that the quality is always good. You also get 3 different eras from Miles' career. Ever the innovator Miles Davis was The Jazz equivalent of a musical Camelion like David Bowie. His musical direction changed with a beat of a heart. Jazz fans, as well as Miles Davis fans look at the names I already dropped as featured on the album. Can it get any better than to have a compilation with some of the greatest players to emerge from  the Miles Davis band.

After the tour for Streets: A Rock Opera, Jon Oliva announced his exit from Savatage. The reasons given were that Jon wanted to concentrate on his solo project Doctor Butcher and a Broadway Musical he intended to write. Also Jon's voice had been damaged by the long tours, he no longer could hit the high notes he screamed at the beginning of Savatage's career. A new vocalist, Zachary Stevens, would join the band for the follow up to Streets.

This recording is Jon's farewell to his loyal Savtage fans and fellow band mates. Jon would rejoin the band as keyboardist and vocalist for the bands Handful Of Rain album. This show was not recorded by the band for a live album so the only way to hear it is through this nice sounding FM Recording,

Gary Numan was one of the New Wave Synth- Pop artists that I really liked. A lot of the artists such as Ebonozen or Men Without Hats just didn't do anything for me. You never know who you will like or not till you hear them. I loved The Pleasure Principle, it had some very well written, well played songs. That's what matters right? if it fits your vibe or not.

The Bad Plus is quite simply a great Jazz Ensemble. They have worked with quite a few of the big names in Jazz. They have been regulars on The New JDP since we started posting Jazz shows. This is yet another quality recording of one of their own shows. I know I say it a lot but this show is a great listen and addition to your Jazz Collections. They really are one of my favorite bands.

Paul Carrack, what can I say. I was in school when Squeeze were at their height of their career. A kid in my art class was a big New Wave fan, skunk hair do and all. In art class our teacher let us bring in our own records to listen to during class. So Eric (his name) always brought in stuff like The B52's, and a bunch of other New Wave that wasn't my cup of tea. So he brings in Squeeze's East Side Story. I'm ready for like Flock Of Seagulls Synth Pop. The music was some of the best Pop Music I had heard in a while. When "Tempted" came on, the soulful voice of Paul Carrack was just icing on the cake. When side one was over I asked for it to be played again. Eric says something like "You sure you don't want to hear Black Sabbath?" I said something like, "No You finally brought in someone with talent play it again". So we listened to the whole album twice before it was changed to something else.

Notes:
Nice sound quality, the problems mentioned in the track list are equipment problems not sound or broadcast. King's X is a big favorite around our house and circle of friends. When your circle of friends are your Thrash Metal band, longtime roadies and other bands you tend to listen to a lot of things not Metal. When we were touring or writing new material we never listened to bands that make the same kind of music. Myself it's lots of Bob Seger, Joe Walsh (You Bought It You Name It is Genius!!), and King's X. My guitar player turned me on to them. He had read that they were the favorite band of Slayer's vocalist Tom Araya. He said it was one of his everyday go to bands. Unfortunately this is the tragedy of King's X. They seem to be a big musicians band but never quite caught the large audiences their music deserves. This band has vocal harmonies that would make The Beatles, Beach Boys, and Eagles take notice their mix of Hard Rock and Power Pop Melodies really set the band apart from most bands who debut at the same time. For those who haven't heard King's X I have a few of their shows on the blog (here). Check them all out, each show is worth it!!!

Pretty good sounding recording from the early days of Anthrax. The band was touring for Spreading The Disease. It was their Major Label debut, also their first album with then new singer Joey Belladonna. The E.P. Armed And Dangerous had sold okay but a lot of fans thought Neil Turbin was a better singer. I was and still am a member of that club. I also was slow to accept the change in style of music when Spreading The Disease was released. When a band has fired the core song writers who wrote or co-wrote every track on their debut, the follow up might sound a little different. The album had to grow on me, which didn't happen till after Among The Living. Kind of ironic the few songs I did like right off were written with the help of Dan Lilker and Neil Turban.

I do however like the chance to compare Joey Belledaonna's vocals on the early tracks to those of Neil Turban. Joey is okay but there are notes he can not hit that Neil could.

Helloween was one of the first of the German Underground bands I heard. A friend of mine brought over his new copies of Helloween's Walls Of Jericho album and Running Wild's Branded And Exiled. I was an instant fan, not of both bands, Running Wild for some reason had to grow on me. I was actually disappointed when Helloween released Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part 1. It was a bit of a change. The early output was Thrash/Speed Metal while Keeper was the birth of a new kind of Power Metal and Progressive Metal. It grew on me.

This recording is a little (little) rough for an FM recording. It's not unlistenable. On the contrary I think it adds to the Underground Metal Vibe myself. The art included doesn't have the correct track listing. It also has a picture of Michael Kiske on the back cover. Michael isn't in the line up as of this recording.
