Rare Australian Westwood One Radio Show. Not very many of these shows were produced. I found this one on Guitars101.com.
It's a great concert from a service that I only a few days ago found existed. Added bonus is that Clarence Clemons of The E Street Band joins The Queen Of Soul on stage for a rocking "Freeway Of Love". This is a must have for collectors and fans alike. You need this!!

JustDave's Notes:
- Huge Thank You To Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending me his vinyl for me to encode!
- Thank you also to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache and avnut for impute and assistance!
Run Out Grooves:
Side A : KB-694 A AD 8-23-87 MCR JOE
Side B : KB-694 B MCR JOE
Side C : KB-694 C MCR JOE
Known Faults:
- Visual inspection shows some minor vinyl flaws that should be easy to edit around if they cause any type of noise. For the age of the vinyl it looks nice.
- Side B looked to be pressed slightly out of round. Fortunately there seems to be no problems when the LP was played.
- Record set was not mastered very well. The different segments all seem to have their own volume settings. This was dealt with in the editing process.
Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded. It's also not listed on cue sheet.
- King Biscuit put 2 locked groove show promos at the end of Side C they have been included.
- King Biscuit Flower Hour pressed the albums with the commercials half as loud as the music and voice overs. This was dealt with in the editing process.
- Mason Ruffner released Mason Ruffner Live in 1999. It contains the song "Gypsy Blood" and the notes say that it was recorded at The Living Room, Providence, Rhode Island, USA July 1987 (from Mason Ruffner.com) PDF included in extras folder.
- Draftervoi found some articles from newspapers that show Jon Butcher played the Hollywood Palace July 16, 1987 (included in extras folder). He also played The Living Room twice around the time that Mason Ruffner did. Mason Ruffner is reported to have played The Hollywood Palace close to the same time as Jon Butcher but no info was found to confirm that
Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave always set to record while filtering any 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 situation.
- Some minor flaws may still show after all the work, we are after all working with vinyl sources.
- Raised volume of the commercials 50% to equal the volume of the show.
- Evened out the volume of entire show, but did not normalize/maximize audio.
Other Notes:
- I went into this project not knowing Mason Ruffner's music at all. I would say he writes Southern Blues with a touch of Louisiana Swing and some Rock-A-Billy thrown in for texture.
- Mason Ruffner writes music that lets the notes and vocals breath while Jon Butcher has a more dense sounding style.
- Although Jon Butcher is clearly influenced by Jimi Hendrix, he shows influence in his song writing by Robin Trower and Frank Marino. "Holy War" could be a Frank Marino song the way the keyboards interplays with the guitar. Both were heavily influenced by Hendrix but each had their own way of crafting a song. Stevie Ray Vaughan is also heavily influenced technically but sounds nothing like Jon Butcher, Frank Marino or Robin Trower.
- Jon Butcher shows some more of his influences by playing Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground". You can hear the R & B influence in his music like Robin Trower (Check out Trowers album with Maxi Priest).

Known Faults:
- While checking the vinyl I did notice some tiny dimples on Record 1. These can be found on records usually without any harm to the sound, records were super clean on arrival from Sam Elliot's Mustache.
Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It was not encoded.
- King Biscuit put the 2 locked groove show promos at the end of Side A I moved them to the end of the show.
- Show matches a bootleg FM broadcast I have on my hard drive. The show is called The Toys For Tots Concert The Palladium, Los Angeles, California, USA February 12, 1982 King Biscuit Flower Hour FM broadcast so that date has been attatched to this recording.
- Lead vocalist Jimmy Farrar addresses the audience throughout the show as Los Angeles and as The Paladium.
- Show has been officially released a few times so posting show on any forums would not be alowed.
Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.
Other Notes:
- Not one member of the original lie-up of Molly Hatchet is alive. (See Molly Hatchet Extra Info text)
- Second vocalist Jimmy Farrar has also passed on. (See Molly Hatchet Extra Info text)
- Molly Hatchet still tour without one original member in the band.
- Bobby Ingram, who joined the band in 1987, has been leading the band without any original members since 1992. Except for between 2005-2017 when Dave Hlubek returned to the line-up as a "special guest"

I have been listening to a lot of Mason Ruffner lately after I encoded a Mason Ruffner / Jon Butcher King Biscuit Flower Hour for Sam Elliot's Mustache and The Collective Of Live Music (of which I am a member). Draftervoi had this tape in his collection encoded and ready to go. He sent it to me so I could listen to it and post it on The New JDP.
Draftervoi is in the middle of encoding and posting Sam Elliot's Mustache's collection of NBC The Source Pre-FM Radio Show Vinyls at Voodoo Wagon as well as other goodies. He let us scoop him on this recording. I highly recommend that you check out what Draftervoi is laying down at Voodoo Wagon!
This Mason Ruffner is a fabulous concert from a musician I actually was just introduced to and am sorry I didn't listen to him in his day. His mix of Blues, Louisiana Swing and Rock n Roll Roots is a great listen!!! It may be rooted in Blues but Mason Ruffner's music makes you want to move and have a good time at the party!!!

This show was pared with a April Wine concert from The Hammersmith Odeon, London, England, UK January 27, 1981. The Hammersmith show has been released officially in Laser Disc, VHS and DVD formats. The audio is included on an April Wine CD Box Set. This being the case the April Wine segment has been deleted. I do recommend purchasing the official DVD if you want the April Wine show.

Recording Notes:
- LP was professionally cleaned before purchase.
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- The Vocopro CDR-1000PRO processes at 24bit/44,1khz then records in 16bit/44,1.
- Vocopro CDR-1000PRO Waves can confuse Traders Little Helper so spectral of a wave is included.
- Recorder can be "tempermental" with CD-rs so 1 side recorded per CD-r to reduce bad discs.
- EAC Log given for each CD-r ripped.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- No noise reduction used.
- Manually declicked in Goldwave.
Other Notes:
- This show was also broadcast as #89-07, #89-25 & #92-41. #89-07 and #89-25 on 3-LPs; #92-41 on 1-CD; #89-07 and #89-25 both had one additional track, "That Was Yesterday", that was not on the CD version. The CD version had a 1990s updated mix and master. (Thank you Draftervoi for the research)
- The Nipon Budokan Arena started life as a Judo Arena for the 1964 Summer Olympic Games. It also hosted karate and professional wrestling competitions. Budokan Arena hosted it's first Rock Concert in 1966 when The Beatles played a series of concerts there. Bob Dylan, Cheap Trick, Ian Gillan and Eric Clapton helped make the arena famous in the United States, and other western markets, by releasing Live At Budokan albums. The building was renovated in 2020 and is still in use.

Recording Notes:
- LP was professionally cleaned before purchase.
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- The Vocopro CDR-1000PRO processes at 24bit/44,1khz then records in 16bit/44,1.
- Vocopro CDR-1000PRO Waves can confused Traders Little Helper so spectral of a wave is included.
- Recorder can be "tempermental" with CD-rs so 1 side recorded per CD-r to reduce bad discs.
- EAC Log given for each CD-r ripped.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- No noise reduction used.
- Manually de-clicked in Goldwave.
Editing Notes:
- Tracks from this show were released by Westwood One as Shows #88-24, #89-13, #90-07, and #04-28. Draftervoi's notes on his encoding of show #88-24 is my reference point for this and the following comments.
- I bought show #89-13 because it was supposed to be the one that included "Shoot The Moon" but it's only listed on the cue sheet not included on the album. Cue sheet states "Shoot The Moon" follows "Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley" but "Rip Tide" follows "Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley".
- Just like show #88-24 there was a half second defect in "Every Kind Of People", this time a very noticeable half second drop out in the left channel. I copied the right channel and pasted it inplace of the drop out. That half second of mono is un-noticible in playback. On show #88-24 the defect is a buzz type noise.
- A slap back from the drum effect in "Some Like It Hot" was very noticeable. I tried to remove that as much as possible, but in 1988 a midi samples could only be played so fast without slap back or failure. The drum effect on the album was done with a gate. Live the drum sound was done by midi triggers. Editing this was the part of the project that took the longest. Some may still be perceivable, my apologies, but at some point you have to say it's done.
Side Notes:
- It had been 10 years since Robert Palmer played Miami.
- Light O'Mania was a promotion campaign between The WWF (now WWE) and Miller Lite Beer. Bob Uecker, a retired Pro Baseball player and sports caster, played The Masked Marauder. Bob Uecker also was a ring announcer for The WWF Wrestlemania III and ringside announcer for Wrestlemania IV. He was the star of a famous Miller Lite promo campaign sitting in good seats then gets moved to the nosebleed section. His famous tag line was "I must be in the front row" when being told to move. It soon became a thing in America to call the cheep seats "Uecker" seats.
Notes On The Cover Songs:
- "Some Like It Hot" was the first single off of The Power Station's debut album. The single was the bands biggest hit. "Some Like It Hot" reached #6 on The Billboard Hot 100 in the USA and #4 on Australia's Kent Music Report.
- "Tell Me I'm Not Dreamin'" was on Jermaine Jackson's 1984 album Jermaine Jackson. The song was never released as a single because Michael Jackson was also on the single dueting with Jermaine. The 2 were on different labels and could not get permission to issue the song as a single. It did get released as a B-side twice on a 7" and on a 12".
- "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On" was the debut single by Soul/Dance Music singer Cherrelle. It only hit #79 on Billboard Hot 100 but hit #6 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart and #8 on Billboard's Hot Black Singles Chart. Robert Palmer Hit #2 on The Billboard Hot 100 Chart with his version released as the 5th single from Rip Tide.
- "Communication" was the 3rd single from The Power Station and it's highest chat position was #34 on The US Hot 100.
- "Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley" was written by Allen Toussaint and first released by Lee Dorsey in 1970 on his album Yes We Can. Ringo Star covered it on his album Ringo The 4th in 1977. Robert Palmer recorded it as the title song to his 1974 debut solo album.
- "Walk Beside Me" was released by former Frumpy lead singer Inga Rumpf as a single in 1985. The song is sung by one of Robert Palmer's backup singers.
- "Early In The Morning" was recorded by The Gap Band for their Gap Band IV album. Released as a single it hit #1 on Billboard's Hot Black Singles Chart, #13 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs Chart, and #24 on Billboard's Hot 100 Chart. Robert Palmer released it as a single from his Heavy Nova album and it hit #19 on Billboard's Hot 100 Chart.
- "Eat The Rich" was recorded by Motörhead for their 8th album Rock 'n' Roll released in 1987. It was released as both a 7" and 12" single. Robert Palmer covered it at his concerts as social commentary.
- "Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)" was written and recorded by Moon Martin in 1978 as a stand alone single for British & European markets and added to the Shots from a Cold Nightmare album's American release. Robert Palmer recorded it for his 1979 Secrets album. Palmer's single version hit #14 on The Billboard Hot 100, #10 on The Cashbox Hot 100 Chart, and #1 on the Canadian RPM Chart. It was also in hot rotation for years on Album Rock FM radio stations. The song was remixed in 1989 for the hits package Addictions: Volume 1. The remix featured "heavier" guitar and drum sounds.
Personal Note:
- I started this project as a casual Robert Palmer listener. My only CD was a greatest hits compilation. My only vinyl was Secrets because I wanted his cover of Moon Martin's "Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)". After listening to this show over and over. Hearing the man sing Motörhead's "Eat The Rich". After he made me like a Jermaine Jackson song, "Tell Me I'm Not Dreamin'", I have a larger appreciation for him as an artist.

JustDave's Notes:
- Huge Thank You To Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending me his vinyl to encode!
- Thank you also to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache & avnut for impute and assistance.
Run Out Grooves:
Side A : KB-437-A MCR JOE
Side B : KB-437-B MCR JOE
Side C : KB-437-C MCR JOE
Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove test tone at the beginning of Side A for radio stations to set output levels before broadcast. It is not included in this encoding.
- Although the cue sheet states there are 2 promos at the end of Side C there are no promos included.
- Another odd thing about this record set is that between when the John Waite portion ends and the Axe portion of the show starts there is no locked groove in between. Usually when a new segment starts there is a locked groove between the ending and beginning segment.
Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials, and voice overs.
- All editing done in 24bit/96khz
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served situation.
Other Notes:
- John Waite, former lead singer of The Babys was on tour for his first solo album Ignition.
- The song "Change" was written by Holly Knight while in the band Spider. The song was on the bands second an last album. The album also was the first recording of "Better Be Good To Me" which would be a hit for Tina Turner. Spider also had Anton Fig, of the Late Night With Letterman band, on drums.
- John Waite had help from some note worthy musicians in his backing band. Lead guitarist Frank Linx worked with Eddie Money, Pat Benatar and Del Lords. Rhythm guitarist Ivan Kral has worked with Shaun Cassidy, Blondie, Patti Smith. and Iggy Pop. Bassist Donnie Nossov played with Pat Benatar. Drummer Frankie La Rocca played with Scandal, David Johansen, Bon Jovi and Bryan Adams as well as produced The Spin Doctors debut album. While keyboardist Peter Reilich has worked with Gary Wright, Persia, Alessi Brothers, The Strand and Foreigner.
- Axe was on tour for their third album, Offering.
- Only one song in Axe's set, "Running The Gauntlet" was not from Offering. It appeared on the prior album Living On The Edge.
- After Axe's 1984 tour, lead guitarist Bobby Barth and rhythm guitarist Michael Osborne were in a devistating car crash. Michael Osborne died while Bobby Barth suffered terrible injuries. The band broke up and Barth worked on other projects. The band reformed in 1997 and are active to this day.
- Original Axe drummer Ted Mueller passed away June 29, 2012, he was 57.

JustDave's Notes:
Recording And Editing Notes:
- Box set came with no cue sheets found very small cue sheet scan on-line.
- All label and box scans from original box and albums.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with voice overs and commercials.
- Commercials and voice overs indexed so they may be omitted if so desired.
- Flat transfer, EQ off, bass & treble set at +/- zero for truest sound of vinyl.
- Some clicks/pops manualy removed, some noise reduction was used.
- All editing done in 24bit/96khz.
Additional Notes:
- Used copies of Greenpeace Rainbow Warriors Compilation CD sell for $0.63 US on Discogs, about 50 copies are available. On Ebay the vinyl averages $50.00 US.
- The compilation consists of previously released material, I could not find chart listings for it.
- Of the 3 artists in the Rainbow Warriors ads, only Bruce Hornsby is featured on the compilation.
- Permanent Vacation has been certified 5x Platinum in the USA and Canada. It was Aerosmith's first Gold Album in The UK.
- There was 5 singles released to varying degrees of success. "Dude (Looks Like A Lady)", "Rag Doll", "Hang Man Jury", "Angel" and "Magic Touch" all got the single nod.
- The Permanent Vacation Tour saw White Lion, Dokken, Extreme and Guns And Roses as opening acts.
- The Permanent Vacation Tour was the first tour Aerosmith did sober. The backstage guests and opening acts were asked not to do drugs or drink in front of the band because of fear they may relapse.
- When Guns And Roses were on the tour, rumor was Aerosmith needed to put in writing Guns And Roses could not drink or do drugs back stage.
- Beer and liquor sales at some venues were cut off during Aerosmith's performances.
Side Notes:
- 2 things that I love about this recording is #1 Tom Hamilton's bass solo on the extended ending of "Same Old Song And Dance". #2 hearing the twin guitar attack of Joe Perry and Brad Whitford on "Lightning Strikes" which only Whitford played on in the studio.
- I'm willing to bet that the Bob Mould Greenpeace Spot is the only air time he ever got on most stations that carried this show.
The latest in my Pre-FM collection. This one was bought for me by Rosebud for Chistmas 2024. I have one more album from that group of LPs she bought then other projects are in the works.

Draftervoi's Notes:
The cue sheet was lost along the way. I've included a scan of the record label.
Bobby Bare's long career started with rock and roll releases in the 1950s. He had a notable snafu with his first self-penned hit, 'The All American Boy." Bare made a demo for Bill Parsons to teach him the song, Capitol Records pressed up Bare's demo instead of Parson's take, but credited the record to Parsons. The song went to #2 in the U.S.A. and #22 on the British charts and still shows up as a hit for Bill Parsons.
In the 1960's, Bare moved from rock n' roll to straight country, and had a string of hits, including some that crossed over to the pop charts. These pop-cross overs led to Bare's inclusion in Dave Marsh's 1989 book, The Heart of Rock and Soul: The 1001 Greatest Singles Ever Made. Marsh listed two entries by Bobby Bare, both from 1963: Detroit City at #337 and 500 Miles Away From Home at #901.
While it wasn't included in Marsh's list, Bare had another hit in 1966 that's become a standard. Bare recorded the original hit version of "Streets of Baltimore," a song written by Tompall Glaser and Harlan Howard in 1966. While there were many cover versions, an early 1970's cover by Gram Parsons is a definitive version, and was recently topically featured on the HBO series The Wire, as the show is set in Baltimore.
In the mid to late 70's, Bare had a series of humorous novelty hits, including Numbers, The Winner, and the sublimely ridiculous Dropkick Me, Jesus. (Note: The word "tempestion" appears to have been entirely made up for this song,)
This syndicated show was produced by the Clayton Webster Corp. of St. Louis, Missouri. Incorporated in January of 1978, the Clayton Webster Corp. also produced the "Retro Rock" show, syndicated from 1981 to 1984. The "outro" to the show says that the Live From The Lone Star Cafe show was carried on "more than 200 American radio stations...every week," which gives us an approximate number of copies pressed. The numbering sequence on the these shows included a three letter code of "LSC" followed by a year and and an ascending show number: LSC-7901, LSC-7902, LSC-7903, etc. I've seen copies of Live From The Lone Star Cafe series with numbering indicating the show ran from 1979 to 1981 It looks like Clayton Webster got out of syndication of live concerts by the mid-80s.

Now here is a rarity! There are barely any Hank Williams Jr shows on the net let alone a Pre-FM!! This is the next in line of the Westwood One shows Rosebud bought me for Christmas. I'm really proud to have found this one on Ebay. Even more proud of my Rosebud for buying it for me! Now it's available to you as well. I have an MP3 encoded FM broadcast recording I got from Hear Rock City a few years back on an older site. It is the FM broadcast I mention in my notes above. I don't know if they have it posted at the new site or not. At that time they were the only blog that had any Hank Williams Jr at all...

JustDave's Notes:
- As always a big Thank You to Draftervoi, Sam Elliot's Mustache & avnut for help & inspiration
Editing Notes:
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials, and voiceovers.
- All editing done in 24bit/96khz
- Declicked manualy and some noise reduction used depending on what best served the situation.
- A 60k high pass filter was run to reduce some needle noise
About The Show:
- The host never identifies himself during the program, it doesn't happen often.
- The Twisted Sister portion of the show is the famous MTV Concert from The Orange Pavlion, San Bernadino California, May 19, 1984.
- Twisted Sister included a free DVD of The MTV Concert in full with the Double CD 25th Anniversary Edition of Stay Hungry. The DVD was only available at Independent Record Stores. The DVD was given away for free to anyone who bought the 25th Anniversary Stay Hungry Double CD.
- The Stevie Ray Vaughan portion of the show had a bit of a mystery about it's date. It has been bootlegged a lot with the wrong date and location.
- Commonly dated as The Country Club, Reseda, California October 26, 1983, because Westwood One's host says that is the location. This fact however is wrong. Stevie Ray Vaughan was on the East Coast of America opening for The Moody Blues at that time.
- Westwood One, King Biscuit and the rest do make mistakes when it comes to the date and location of shows
- Newspaper articles found by Draftervoi and contained in the News Coverage folder, show the concert took place at The Hollywood Palace, Hollywood, California, August 22, 1983.
- The cue sheet track listing for Stevie Ray Vaughan is so wrong, it is almost laughable.
Other Notes:
- This was one of the most expensive Pre-FM record sets I have purchased to date. I thought this was due to Stevie Ray Vaughan being one of the artists. Actually it's due to the inclusion of Twisted Sister. Not a lot of Heavy Metal were on the original Westwood One programs. This makes them more "valuable" to collectors so more expensive when sold. Stevie Ray Vaughan may have played a small role in the price of the show, Twisted Sister were the main cause.
