Composer, Player, Innovator, Jazz Icon, Legend Wayne Shorter has died at the age of 89. No cause of death was given. Wayne Shorter is/was/always will be one of my favorite Jazz Musicians Of All Time. From his work with Miles Davis to his days in Weather Report to his solo endeavors and his many projects with Herbie Hancock, the man is nothing less than Phenomenal!! He has the awards to prove it too! From Downbeat's Reader's Poll's New Star Saxophonist in 1962, his 1st Grammy Award, with Weather Report Best Jazz Fusion Performance in 1979 for their 8:30 album. He won a Best Improvised Jazz Solo Grammy in 2023 for his track "Endangered Species". Wayne had retired from the road due to heath conditions that made it to hard to do so in 2018 but kept recording till he couldn't anymore (respect, much respect). His presence in the Jazz World will be sorely missed.

A nice sounding recording from Progressive Metalers Coheed And Cambria, although Travis Stever's guitar can sometimes be a little low in the mix. Once these guys get started they don't waste any time. Almost every song segues, they only stop 3 times in the whole show. Bassist Wes Styles was only filling in at the time of the recording, due to original bass player Michael Todd being arrested on armed robbery charges, Wes has since been made a permanent member.

Draftervoi's Notes:
Chuck Leavell joined the Allman Brothers in 1972, when the group moved away from the twin-lead guitar sound in the wake of Duane Allman's death. He was with them until the band had one of their break-ups in 1976, at which point he went full time with Sea Level. Sea Level's albums mixed long jazz rock instrumentals with shorter funk-rock-pop songs...and never put out a live album.
Hosted by Lesley Palmiter of Boston's WCOZ-FM and brought to you by Heath Candy Bars and
Scotch Recording Tape. Recorded at the Paradise Theater in Boston.
Chuck Leavell went on to play on a dozen or so albums by the Rolling Stones and also win the coveted Georgia Tree Farmer of the Year Award not one but two times.
The vinyl on this was a bit noisy, but I knuckled down and pulled off every click I could find. Unfortunately there was no cue sheet, but you get a 300 dpi scan of the disc label.

What can be said about David Crosby that hasn't been said. Successful with The Bird, with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (and all the mini groupings within that very group of musicians). David Crosby is easily one of the most influential singer/songwriters to emerge from the ending of the 1960s.
The 1st time I saw David Crosby live was with Crosby, Stills, & Nash. It was the opening of the Palace of Auburn Hills, Michigan. The show was sponsored by the Detroit Classic Rock Station WCSX-99.8 FM. The tickets were actually $.99 American but you had to pick them up at the radio station and could only get 2 at a time. The other band to be one of the 1st to play The Palace was Pink Floyd sponsored by WRIF-101.1 FM. Those tickets were $1.01 American with the same rules. My friends and I (about 20 in all) went to each of these shows. My biggest memory of the C.S.N show was when David Crosby was 1st shown on the big Palace screen someone yelled out "It's Grandpa Jones" to which Graham Nash answers "And He's a pickin' and a grinnin'!" (People who gets this joke just gave away their age...LOL!!)

In Memory of Terry Kath 12/31/1946 - 01/23/1978
Chicago was never the same after the death of Terry Kath at age 31, by an accidental self inflicted gun shot wound to the head on January 23, 1978. Terry was the guiding light and Rock & Roll Soul of the band. Although the band experimented with many different styles of music, there was always a Rock & Roll base. After Terry Kath died Peter Cetera stepped up as lead song writer. The band was forever chasing the Top 40 Charts after that. Disco, AOR and 1980's ballads crushed even the diehards when it came to album sales. Chicago however has enjoyed a very strong live career. When I last saw them about 10 or 15 years ago they were still a solid live band, never a bad show in the 10 shows of there's I saw.
Now there are only 3 remaining founding members, Robert Lamm keyboards & vocals, Lee Loughnane, trumpet, James Pankow, trombone.

I was introduced to The Dead Kennedys by my guitarist Cuzinlox. He played me In God We Trust Inc. and I was an instant fan. When people ask why Thrash Metal bands played so fast I would play that record and say exhibit A. The effect of Hardcore Punk music was huge on any Thrash/Speed Metal musician. Metallica name check The Misfits. Slayer says T.S.O.L. had a big impact on them. Overkill & Anthrax praise the complete New York City Hardcore scene for their sound. For my band Psychosis and fellow Michigan Thrashers Ruthless Horde it was The Dead Kennedys and Black Flag. Bottom line Hardcore Punk sent all of us on a crash course with a harder faster mentality in the music underground (yes!!)
Here's the obituary shared by BigO:
DH Peligro, Dead Kennedys’ longtime drummer, has died. The band confirmed the news on Instagram, writing, “Dead Kennedys’ drummer DH Peligro (Darren Henley) passed away in his Los Angeles home on October 28. Police on the scene stated that he died from trauma to the head caused by an accidental fall.” Peligro was 63 years old.
Former Dead Kennedys frontman Jello Biafra wrote: “Even behind the drum kit, he had presence. All animal instinct, he never played anything quite the same way twice. He was a born showman.” He went on to recall his first encounter with Peligro, watching his band SSI play at defunct San Francisco venue the Deaf Club. Peligro, in Biafra’s eyes, “stole the show” with his performance that night. “A free spirited African American force of nature… with this shit eating grin, a bandana on his head, and two kick drums, singing his ass off,” Biafra recalled.
Flea took to Instagram, saying “The first time I saw you play with the DK’s in ‘81 you blew my mind. The power, the soul, the recklessness.” Superchunk’s Jon Wurster posted a video of a Dead Kennedys set in San Francisco from 1984 with the words “DH Peligro has left the building. One of the absolute greats.”
Peligro made his recorded debut with Dead Kennedys on the 1981 EP In God We Trust, Inc, which famously marked the band’s first of many references railing against President Ronald Reagan. The record also includes their iconic hit “Nazi Punks Fuck Off.” Peligro’s hardcore drumming style continued in a modified form on the band’s sophomore album, 1982’s Plastic Surgery Disasters, and on through their next string of records: 1985’s Frankenchrist, 1986’s Bedtime for Democracy, and the 1987 compilation album Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death.
Following Dead Kennedys break up in December 1986, Peligro briefly joined Red Hot Chili Peppers in 1988. Peligro was also responsible for introducing Kiedis and Flea to then-teenager John Frusciante, who joined as their new guitarist shortly afterward.
Peligro was an early Black icon in the punk rock scene and was frequently outspoken about his experiences with racism while touring, including being denied entry into clubs his bands were scheduled to play. “Music would take me to places I wouldn’t normally go, and it’s fine while you were onstage, but when you got off, they’d get drunk and call you all kinds of names,” he told LA Weekly.
“You go down South, you go across the Midwest, then people were thinking that it was music for white people, or I was the janitor or security or something. You got to experience the racism firsthand, because everybody wasn’t as open-minded as they were in San Francisco. It’s a bit more open and accepted today, but there’s still pockets of people who want to use punk rock to create hate music. That angers me to no end.” - pitchfork.com, nme.com.

Tom Verlaine died January 8, 2023 from prostate cancer which had metastasized, he was 73. This hits home for me twice. For one Television was one of the 1st Punk Rock bands I got into. Along with The Ramones, Television was a little easier to get into than say Black Flag or The Meatmen. I was a fan from my 1st listen to all 4 of those bands but from introducing my friends to different bands I listen to Television was a little easier. My second reason is the fact that he died from prostate cancer that had spread. He died 18 days after my operation to have my prostate removed. I have no idea if he had an aggressive form or slow moving. By the press release he was "only ill a short time"....the only cancer that kills more men than lung cancer is prostate cancer. The number one killer in men is heart disease the number two is cancer...early detection is the only way to really catch it in time...we all know where I'm going with this guys, get checked.

JustDave's Info:
The concert actually was at Palisade Gardens, San Diego, California July 20, 1985. This info and a copy of the flyer came from a Gang Green fan website https://metallipromo.com/gang.html. Original upload said it was at Roller Rink, San Diego CA 07-20-1985. If the date is correct than this is at The Palisade Gardens.
I forgot about this one. Alcohol driven Hardcore/Crossover Punk. I used to play Gang Green a lot during my time in Psychosis due to the fact I didn't want other Thrash Metal bands to influence my writing. I listened to a lot of Joe Walsh, Joe Cocker, Devo, FEAR, Dead Kennedys, Misfits, Ian Gillan (solo) and Gang Green. I guess it did affect my writing since after I left they changed their name to Rusted Shut with the bass player taking over vocals and song writing. The new songs sounded like Black Sabbath with lyrics about his dog and room mate. I went on to play Death Metal for a while with Cranial Colonic (a much better name than Rusted Shut).

JustDave's Notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to raise the volume a bit and add a fade in and fade out at the beginning and end. No EQ or noise reduction used, no remastering done. The DVD had lossy audio so I encoded the waves to MP3 320kbps using Trader's Little Helper.
I shed a tear when I heard Jeff Beck died. He passed the day of my cancer surgery. I found out when I got home from hospital. It gutted me.
The Jeff Beck Group was one of the first bands my Aunt Red introduced me too. She gave me an 8-track tape that had both Truth & Beck-Ola on it. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate those 2 albums as an 11 in how much they impacted my musical taste. Jeff Beck Group MKI, Deep Purple MKI & MKII, Black Sabbath (w/ Ozzy), & MC5 where always next to my stereo as well as The Who Live At Leeds, and Alice Cooper Killer. All the rest of my collection would be in my cabinet.
I had a friend come to visit and said something like "Wow what a nice music collection". I replied in a cocky tone "Hey thanks, I always tell people just ask for me to play something and I most likely have it." Now this was Disco Days and he says "Rod Stewart". I pulled out my copy of Truth/Beck-Ola and put it on. When it was done he said "Tape that for me". I used to tell my 1980s Metal Head friends that Rod Stewart played a big part in the development of Heavy Metal. They would laugh or yell something obscene, then of course I would play them the Truth/Beck-Ola duo and would have to tape it for them.
I included the obituary that BigO had shared. I hope you enjoy the music.

JustDave Notes:
Set list on cover art is not the same as given by uploader. Art was downloaded from Disc Japan. This recording has already been pulled from The Trader's Den (for no fingerprint files included). The uploader listed 17 tracks in the track list but there was only 16 files. The 16th file was actually a Stevie Ray Vaughan acoustic performance. I have left this track out of the fileset since it is not Johnny Thunders. I also renamed the files since the track list was wrong. I did my best to identify all of the tracks correctly. Johnny really rambles on a lot during this performance.
My guitar player in Psychosis was the one that really got me into the Dolls. He had a lot of New York Dolls vinyl including bootlegs. We had these tapes we would play over the PA in between bands. Between 1985 & 1989 when you heard "Personality Crisis" all band members and stage roadies were to be back stage. After that song our sound man would start our intro tape. We used 2 different songs for an intro, both from Leon Russell. "Carney" or "Acid Annapolis" depending on which was pre-chosen. But it was always New York Dolls for the 5 minute warning.

JustDave's Notes:
I used DVD Audio Extractor to rip the waves. I then used Goldwave to edit some track marks and adjust the volumes of the 2 sources. I did not use any EQ nor did I do any remastering of the sound. I then used Trader's Little Helper to encode the lossy source waves to MP3 320kbps.
There were quite a few fades between songs, I decided not to try to cross fade them (sorry).
Track 02 "Let It Ride" has a couple camera cues at the very beginning and at the end.
Track 03 "Rock Is My Life And This Is My Song" starts with a voice over from Blair Thornton & fades to an interview with Randy at the 2 minute mark then fades back in at the 3 minute mark.

I Am Home And Feeling Better Every Day!
Hi everyone, I have to thank all of you that left messages of hope for my surgery. I must also thank those who said prayers for me as well! Words can not express how much they warmed my heart. I have been home since the 12th of January. My catheter was removed on 20th of January. I have a total of 7 incisions that are healing really well. In fact the smallest of them has completely healed, and all my "stitches" have fallen off. Yesterday was the first time I sat in my computer chair since having my prostate removed. It can be a bit uncomfortable but tolerable for a few minutes at a time. I had an appointment with my family Doctor for a follow up about 4 days ago and he said I look great and everything is healing nicely. My next check up with my Cancer Doctor is in about a month. This will be to see if my PSA numbers are at zero, zero will mean cancer free....
Thank You All And New Music Coming Very Very Soon!!

I will be taking a few days off after January 10
I learned a little while back that my tumor had grown to take up one whole side of my prostate. This moves me up the ladder to stage 3 gleason 7. Which means I could reach stage 4 soon. So I have opted to have it removed. It will be done by robotic surgery through my abdomen. There will be 2 cuts with maybe 5 stitches each. A 2 day stay in hospital, then home to Rosebud to recover. My oldest son Spider (his Heavy Metal nick name) is coming to stay with us to help Rosebud help me. When I can comfortably sit down at the computer, and Rosebud says that it's okay (she's my Rock) I will be back.
Thank You All For Letting Me Share This Journey With You!! It's a music blog thank you for letting me bring this part of my life into the mix. Thank you for all the words of support, prayers and everything else you all have been great!

JustDave's Notes:
Not Sure If This One Originally Was Done By Draftervoi But I Think It May Be.
Original Notes:
Sourced from pre-FM double compact disc of Westwood One Superstar Concert Series SS # 97-30. Also included is a short broadcast promo.
This is the sourced from the 97-30 broadcast Pre-FM, but is not the complete show. It is missing several songs including "I Was Brought To My Senses", "Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot", "Seven Days", "I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying", and "Fragile". The 96-37 Pre-FM is the complete show but the only version I've seen of that seems to be lossy. Could be that 96-37 was actually broadcast from a lossy source. The bootleg "Perfect Night In Houston" may be sourced from 96-37, and - no surprise - is lossy too. This 97-30 Pre-FM is actually lossless. I imported the original tracks from drccds into Audacity and removed the commercials, and tracked everything to split up the songs. I kept the J.J. Jackson speaking parts.

LPs cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning system prior to a flat transfer of the vinyl to CD-r. A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used prior to LP playback on said system. The vinyl has some anomalies on every side. These look like dimples and little air pockets. These particular anomalies could not be removed. The LPs were actually almost unplayable until I used the HumminGuru Ultrasonic cleaner, it really made a huge difference.

LPs cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning system prior to a flat transfer of the vinyl to CD-r. A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used prior to LP playback on said system. This and a couple other records, all boots, were found in the basement of my house when I moved in. They were covered in mildew or mold, which was cleaned by the sonic cleaner. There will still be some snaps but the vinyl is now playable and an enjoyable listen.
It sounds as if side one was tracked by a tape with the player's azimuth out of adjustment. You hear backwards music during the whole side. I was able to remove a lot of it but not all. The tape for side two starts out muffled but clears up halfway through "Duece". The quality of the tape used for the album mars the listening pleasure a little. It's a guilty pleasure. Not sure what the line-up for the Ace Frehley demos. The track "Rock Or Be Rocked" has elements of both "We Got Your Rock" and "Rock Soldiors" from the Frehley's Comet debut. Also not sure which demo sessions for KIϟϟ were used.

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas everyone! Wanted to let everyone know that Rosebud and I tested positive for covid-19 the day after Thanksgiving. Rosebud shook it off pretty quick, being back to work in 2 weeks. I however because of my Cancer weekend immune system developed a secondary infection in a salivary gland on the left side of my face. I developed a big liquid filled sore under my left eye that had it almost completely shut. The left side of my face was swollen like I had taken a really hard punch from a Heavy Weight Champion Boxer. It was really serious and I was almost put in hospital by my doctor who decided it might make me sicker (a good choice if you ask me). I have finally gotten some relief, my swelling and sores are gone.However I now have some sagging in my face as if I had a stroke. The left side of my mouth also doesn't work right, sagging when I speak. I have a few more so called "long covid" issues brain fog and exhaustion but feeling better every day. I have some new stuff for everyone coming soon!
Thanks For The Christmas Wishes Hope Everyone Had A Great Holiday!
JustDave & Rosebud
