A compilation of live in the studio tracks recorded at the
BBC by the legendary British Blues Rock Band of the 60s.

Ready For History's Pages...
Good sounding DVD audio of Motorhead on the 1991 Tour of Germany
promoting the1916 album.
Featuring Phil Campbell and Wurzel on guitars.
Lemmy on the bass and vocals,
with Phil Taylor on drums.
I'm Coming Through...
Here is another one from Michael Schenker's, My Years In UFO 2025 Tour.
This time in London with new vocalist Erik Gronwall.
Similar set to previous post with a slightly better sound and split tracks.
Good lively performance with Michael in fine form.
I Should've Walked Away...
Tonight was one of those gigs I was unsure about as it was being advertised as "an acoustic evening" which normally sends alarm bells in my head zzzzz.But quelle suprise I really enjoyed it with enough electric guitar to keep me happy.I have always liked them with 'broadcast' being one of my favourite Soft Rock albums from the 80's and as expected they played their HIT song as well as a great selection of new and well chosen covers.Glad I popped along...Enjoy,Ed.
or
A Storm Is Brewing...
Now I did not expect this...For 50 mins I was transported back to the 80's.
Hair Metal at it's best with screaming vocals,lightning fast guitar playing,
every song with heavy riffs and a huge chorus
and even a bass player spitting blood
in a new venue not to disimilar to the old Wardour Street Marquee Club.
Tonight was one of those special gig nights we've all had
at some point when you leave totally
buzzing and in my case feeling YOUNG...Enjoy,Ed.
or
I Wanna Love You Night And Day...
Some more of that easy listening Rock from The Grateful Dead.
This time from way back in '64.
Few covers on this one and a
good listen if you want to chill...Man!

Gonna Break Down The Door...
Good audience recording of Queen in 1977,
The opening number of We Will Rock You (fast version) really sets
the tone for an excellent performance.
With a great mix of Hard Rock and softer songs show
what an excellent live band Queen were in the 70s.
Will Things Ever Be The Same Again?...
Some early demo recordings of Europe from around 1982
when they were known as Force.
A few of these tracks would later make
it on to the debut album the following year.
Featuring of course Joey Tempest on vocals
and john Norum on guitar just as they still are today.
I Sock 'em Everywhere That I Sing...
Punky Rock n Roll with attitude and sarcasm outta
NYC,it's The Dictators.
From the home of Punk and New Wave,CBGB.
Not successful in album sales but they certainly
had a massive influence on other more successful bands.
If nothing else they did give us
Ross the Boss and Mark Mendoza!
Vinyl Rip.
or
Good Intentions Can Be Evil...
For those who like to listen to the mellower side of Rock n Roll.
In 1987 Bob and The Dead toured together
and here's a little taste of that.
I like a bit Dylan now and again but I know next
to nothing about The Grateful Dead.
Great sound on this.
Tracks 1-12 JFK Stadium,Philadelphia,July 10 1987.
Tracks 13-14 Giants Stadium,East Rutherford,July 12 1987.

I Get My Power in The Midnight Hour...
Here's a goodie,performance and sound.
Featuring an all star cast.
One of the best vocalists ever in Paul Rodgers
& a guitar hero from the 80's,Slash.
Playing Free,Bad Co. and a whole host of Blues standards.
From the US and Germany 1994.
or
Let's Get Together Tonight...
Two classic UFO bootlegs that
have been up before in the past.
Recorded at the Record Plants in Los Angeles
and Sausalito a few weeks apart in 1975.
Both Excellent Soundboard recordings that
should be in everybody's UFO collections.
Los Angeles has the extra track C'mon Everybody
but Michael Schenker's
playing is probably better on Sausalito (IM0).
NOTE
(The Los Angeles show is often
wrongly listed as having been recorded in New York)
All Trying To Get A Break...
A Radio Broadcast of Thunder performing a live
acoustic set with a few interviews.
Excellent hour long one track MP3.
Thunder,always a great band and surely lead singer
Danny Bowes is one of the most underrated vocalists ever.

I'm Going To Cut You Down To Size...
A BBC Radio Broadcast by the Irish guitar wizard in 1977.
The old beat up Stratocaster was certainly
being played to the maximum this night.
A really fine example of 70's Blues Rock.

Give Me A Sense Of Wonder...
Here's a cheeky little (picture disc) vinyl rip.
Kings Of Metal,Iron Maiden back in 2013.
From Rock In Rio.
Incomplete of course,
only nine songs but the boys are on it,as usual.
or
You Be Mine Tonight...
Another Quo show from the 1975,On The Level tour.
With the usual sounding audience recording.
Featuring plenty of long boogie jams like a 14 minute
4500 Times and a 12-minute Roadhouse Blues.
Overall it's a very enjoyable lively performance of classic Quo.
