JustDave's Notes:
Everything I see says this gig took place on December 30, 1978. I have found 2 newspaper or magazine adds and 1 bootleg cover that shows this date. Setlist.fm and The Concert Archive show the date as December 30, 1978. Also most sources on the net has The Doobie Brothers playing Sacramento Memorial Auditorium, Sacramento, California on December 29, 1978. I will let you decide but the evidence suggests December 30, 1978. Maybe our friend Draftervoi has some information on this one.

I have included the news paper clippings I was able to find on the net about the date of the show. Enjoy this great sounding Doobie Brothers concert!

This one may surprise a lot of people but I happen to love Neil Diamond's music. He is such a great song writer, you see his name everywhere in the world of Pop, Rock and Adult Contemporary Music history. The Monkeys, UB40, Elvis even Deep Purple recorded and had hits with Neil Diamond songs. It's really no wonder that he was able to obtain such heights as to star in and write the soundtrack for a major motion picture. The Jazz Singer soundtrack hit number 3 on the American Billboard chart. Three singles "Love On The Rocks", "Hello Again" and "America" also hit the Top 10. My go to Neil Diamond is "I'm Glad You're Here With Me Tonight". I had an 8-track copy of it that I wore out. This is an awesome sounding recording so enjoy!

All though I wasn't a very big fan of Smashing Pumpkins during their heyday they are the band from the 1990s Alternative Rock Boom I still listen to the most. The 1990s for me was a time when a lot of personal problems really had me in a bad way. The music of Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice In Chains among others actually spoke to me in a deep way. Maybe it's an association thing, I do hate thinking back to that period in my life. Anyway, I can remember when a girl that hung out with my group of friends told me "I heard a song that reminds me of you. It's called "Bullet With Butterfly Wings.." See my family of friends have a different nick name for me...it's Rat. For many reasons, one is that I come and go with out you knowing. I leave without saying goodbye or when you think I'm gone, you see me scurrying about. Plus I was from a town that everyone called Shacktown (it's listedon Wikipedia) and people from Shacktown are called Shackrats. It's a rough neighborhood where lots of my school friends were not allowed to visit me. So Shackrat became Rat...Just Dave is actually my legal alias from my time in the Thrash band Psychosis it's on everything. And I went way of track again but I already been smoking so Enjoy The Pumpkins!!

We have been on a bit of a Kansas kick at our home. I have been transferring my boots from a 5TB and a 4TB dive to a 22TB one. It's been a long process that is not quite finished. It however has been fun going through the archive finding shows that we forgot we had. Like this beautiful little item here. It's  only 22 minutes long but it sounds Great yes with a capitol G!!!  Every Kansas fan Definitely should download this show!!!!

I mean it every Kansas fan download this one here even if you have it in you're collection. Why? Because there is a little extra surprise inside since the show is so short!! What kind of surprise you ask? Here are a couple hints....Think unreleased demos...think vocalist Steve Walsh...think of the album released after Steve Walsh left Kansas...Think recordings made before Steve Walsh walked out....So if you guessed you are already downloading. If you haven't guessed you will find your answers will come to you at about 1MB per second when you download this great set!!

Now the notes say no known faults but there are a few little cuts that didn't alter the listening experience at all. This is an awesome show and a little bit special as it starts with an acoustic set which most on this tour did not. The electric portion of the show starts with "Take It Easy" and includes "King Of Hollywood" with an extended guitar solo at the end. Other highlights are a cover of Poco's "Keep On Tryin'", "Those Shoes" and 4 Joe Walsh solo tracks. This Mike Millard Master recording should be in all Eagles fans collections!!

It hasn't been that long since I posted the last Van Morrison show but when you're in the mood for Van Morrison there is no substitute! With his instantly recognizable voice Van Morrison is among those more rare talents that can weave in, out and between genres without blinking an eye or annoying his loyal fans. This recording is for any one who loves when a Van Morrison song comes on the radio and for those who think that there could never be enough Van Morrison on the radio.

Wes Montgomery is a huge influence on the world of guitar players. He not only inspired countless Jazz Guitar Greats like John Scofield and Pat Metheny but the world of Rock Guitar as well. Case in point Bachman-Turner Overdrive's Randy Bachman. Consider some of the more Jazzy sections of the BTO catalog. I hear Wes Montgomery in every lick from "Looking Out For Number 1".

Another great Jazz show I downloaded from BigO is on offer for our own Jazz On Sunday Morning. Christian McBride is one of the Greatest Jazz Sidemen Of All Time. He has worked with so many of the World Of Jazz's Greats just soaking up influence and style that when stepping out of the shadows he creates an eclipse. This show is just such an eclipse. With bass, 2 horns (or 1 and 1 woodwind) and drums, this group comes up with some great musical moments. Below is what BigO said about this show.

What BigO Said:
Christian McBride is an American jazz bassist. He is considered a virtuoso, and is one of the most recorded musicians of his generation; he has appeared on more than 300 recordings as a sideman. He is also a five-time Grammy award winner. McBride has performed with Freddie Hubbard, McCoy Tyner, John McLaughlin, Wynton Marsalis, Herbie Hancock and Pat Metheny, among others.

I didn't thin I would ever get a show in this weekend, Rosebud has been busy making her picks I think this weekend we may have hit a record count for her. One of the many things Rosebud and I share is a love for all things Black Sabbath. No one could convince me that any era of Black Sabbath sucked. You may not like the Tony Martin era or Glenn Hughes era but I love every album they ever produced. Music is subjective, we love what we love. Never let anyone tell you what to like.

This is a kick ass show from the Tony Martin era, a Pre-FM recording to boot. Tony Martin held the front man position when a lot of Ozzy & Sabbath fans were throwing rocks at Tony Iommi for not giving up the ghost. Even Geezer Butler got into it by writing a song called "Give Up The Ghost" on his first solo album. The albums might not be Master Of Reality or Paranoid but they are great albums in their own right. I also think that the new mix of Forbidden sucks. I hate when a band changes the sound of a classic recording. Thank God the remaster of Born Again still has the same mix. The mix that influenced the Thrash Metal sound. The mix for Forbidden hits like a blunt hammer and influenced the Hardcore/Metalcore blunt force trauma production of today.

Notes On Remaster:
1. Speed correct.
2. Re-balance Tonality/EQ.
3. Correct channel imbalances.
4. Reduce hiss, clicks, pops and excessive claps.
5. Adjust dynamics.
6. Repair tape flips.
7. Create stereo image for brief mono segments.
8. Remove or reduce disruptive yelling by audience (sit down)

Notes:
1. "Sit down" yelled frequently, similar to the Yes concert in August, 1977 at the same venue.
2. Brief periods of mono suggesting splice for tape repair.

You can never go wrong with a Dan Lampinski recording just like with Mike Millard. When PRRP gets involved in remastering a show...it becomes the best version it can be. So here we are, the PRRP Remastering of this Classic show.

In Rosebud and My humble opinions, this version of this show is a must have. I have the original master and even that one would have been a must have. It's the performance as well as the recording. Kansas are on FIRE!!! The performances and the arrangements are phenomenal!! It's a You really have to hear it yourself thing. Any Kansas fan will be blown away by this show!

Okay remember what I said about Rosebud and her rating system for rating Queensrÿche shows? Same thing here, it's an FM simulcast recording so sound is a little less than Excellent but listenable and Geoff Tate hits the high notes in "Take Hold Of The Flame"

Now Rosebud doesn't just rate her Queensrÿche bootlegs on sound. She also rates them on how well Geoff Tate does the scream on "Take Hold Of The Flame". They did it as the encore and Geoff hits the highs so Rosebud said post it. Now she also says that you have to give a little on the sound quality. This was a simulcast, live as it happens, some times they have sound glitches. This one did not have the clearest sound but the band was on fire the whole show. The artwork for A Measure of Success is included since this version has none.

Harpo's was packed that night since WLLZ-FM gave the tickets out for free. WLLZ-FM was in a war with The Original Home of Rock & Roll The Riff WRIF-FM 101.1. WRIF was the first Underground FM Radio Station in Detroit. The studio was in a mobile home and they would move it when the feds were getting close. They went legit and parked the mobile home where the radio station is still located today. WLLZ and WRIF were trying to one up each other by trying to get the biggest scoop of a live broadcast on their station. The result is a lot of bootlegs were recorded in Detroit that year. That included WRIF's winning broadcast of Kiss at Cobo Hall, which became the Live And Uncensored Video release from KISS. WLLZ went off the air and went Kool Jazz in the 1990s. WRIF still Rocks Detroit, now WLLZ is back as an "Updated Classic Rock Radio Station" since they play Guns n' Roses, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins and other 1990s bands. Remember when Mom & Dad said "One day Led Zeppelin will be on the Oldies Station." Oldies Station, Classic Rock Station, a rose by any other name still has the thorns right?

Known Faults: The start of the show is missing until "Southbound Train" which is joined in progress; "Our House" was spliced together to cover a gap; the end of "Cowboy Of Dreams" is cut; the rest of the show and encore (3-4 songs) after "Wooden Ships" is missing.

The latest in the Mike Millard Masters being released through JEMS is this excellent recording from David Crosby & Graham Nash.

We recently posted a very good audience recording of the Stills-Young Band from Dan Lampinski. That recording highlighted some of the very things that added up to Neil Young leaving the tour early. This awesome recording from Mike Millard, shows you just what Stephen Stills and Neil Young were hoping for. The audience is right where David Crosby and Graham Nash want them. They hang on  every word and note coming from the stage. They laugh at the pair's self deprecating humor. The audience noise is almost non existent during the actual music but engaging with the duo in between songs. Unfortunately we only get the acoustic portion of the show the electric performances are missing. What we do get however is 'EFIN AWESOME!!!

While looking for things to post this hump day I stumbled across this on my Led Zeppelin drive. It's a nice sounding recording of a legendary show in Osaka Japan remastered by dadgad. dadgad has done some great remasters of some of the vast collection of bootleg sources out there for Led Zeppelin. This speed corrected remaster comes from the Empress Valley Supreme Disc Live In Osaka which is made from the master tape (so that is the cover art you get). A great listening experience for all collectors.
