Dancin' And Hummin'...

It's a Rock n Roll Party from the Faces.

Performed in 1974 and broadcast in 1975

for The Midnight Special TV Show.

With special guest Keith Richards

on a couple of tracks.

I'll bet after this show they went quietly off to

bed with a cup of tea and a good book!!

They Went To My Baby's Head...

Neil Young goes Rockabilly.

A band put together just for the one album,

Everybody's Rockin' back in 1983.

Here they are live with a setlist 

(like the album) that's mostly covers.

"Allo,Allo Allo,Allo..."

Rockin' little Radio Broadcast from Ex Mott The Hoople

songwriting genius,Ian Hunter.

Quality over quantity from '79.

MEGA

 

I Strut Right By With My Tail In The Air...

 Fantastic little show here from those 

Rockabilly rebels,Stray Cats.

Relocated to the UK they recorded their first couple of albums here.

Had a couple of hit singles too.

Anyway these three guys make a great sound.

Replicating the classic early Rock 'n' Roll,Rockabilly sound.

But of course putting their own twist on it. 

Classic.

MEGA

Take Me To The Top...

 I loved early Crüe,they looked great had fun songs

and were entertaining.

Here they are on the Too Fast For Love Tour

back in '82.

They sound great on this Radio broadcast.

And it's back when Vince used to sing songs 

all the way through.

The song Hotter than Hell would eventually turn up

renamed Louder Than Hell on the Theatre Of Pain album.

Good Times!

Vinyl Rip.

MEGA

To Chase A Feather In The Wind...

 Partial show from one of Zep's last concerts.

I think they sound like they're on it here.

Page's guitar work on Since I've Been Loving You 

is always spectacular.

Special mention to the one who probably keeps 

it all together,John Paul Jones.

Good sound on this and a 

thumbs up from me!

Tape Rip.

MEGA

Never Blew A Second Chance,Oh No...

Out touring his second solo album.

Has there been anybody who's

been cooler or written more classics

than that cat Keith?

Radio Broadcast.

From Boston '93.

MEGA

 

Over The Mountains And The Seas...

 There's lighting coming from his fingers

as he speeds across the fretboard!

Yeah it's Gary from '87.

And a cool little Radio Broadcast.

He stretches a few of the songs here and

shows us his full range of playing.

MEGA

Evil Or Divine?...

 The Voice Of Metal it's Ronnie James & his band.

With a fine show from the Super Rock Festival

back in '85.

There was a festival in 1984 as well.

They pretty much featured most of the top

Metal & Heavy Rock bands of the time.

Great time to be a Metalhead!

MEGA

We Are The Sultans...

 OK not a band I had much interest in.I was 

 pretty much only into Heavy Rock/Metal when I was growing up.

But! as you grow up a bit (I'm still growing)

quality will out.

What a fantastic guitarist Knopfler is.

Plus they backed it up with quality songs.

You forget how successful they were.

Absolutely massive.

This show is fantastic in sound and performance.

MEGA

Done Dirt Cheap...

 The Hard Rock Boogie Legends on 

The Flick Of The Switch Tour.

From Detroit 1983.

Easily my second favourite album from the 

Johnson era.

Massive riffs,raw production and a good 

selection of songs.

Brainshake!!  

MEGA

We All Need A Break...

 Cheap Trick on MTV.

Playing in front of Spring Breakersback in '89..

Nope I don't know about Spring Break it 

means nothing over here.

I very much doubt if the Trick have played a bad show.

Cos here's another goodie.

Good to hear a couple of tunes from Lap Of Luxury.

Which produced a big hit for them with The Flame.

They Want You To Want Them!!

MEGA

Hello There,Ladies & Gentlemen...

Here's Cheap Trick gracing the Reading Festival.

Pretty much slap bang in their glory era.

Heaven Tonight,At Budokan and the still to be released 

Dream Police.Power Pop at it's finest.

Not much crowd captured on this recording

but by all accounts they went down very well.

MEGA

 

I Love You Honey...

 Perennial British Melodic Rockers FM here.

Great show in front of a pretty raucous crowd.

A band that should've been more successful.

They're pretty slick but nothing wrong

with playing and singing well.

Includes a fun version of Rod's Hot Legs.

MEGA

I Have Used Up All My Weapons...

 Here's a cool one from Blue Oyster Cult

back in 1981 from NYC.

The album at the time,Fire Of Unknown Origin.

I assume it's a radio broadcast.

It's another of those boots where the songs fade at 

the end.But no (if any) music is lost.

Some good songs included,Veteran Of The Psychic Wars

being a favourite of mine.

Enjoy!!

MEGA

The Awful Pain,The Crimson Rain...

 That noisy mob Motorhead, 

live in Japan from June '82.

It's the short live version with Brian "Robbo" Robertson 

wailing away on guitar.

It's a pity that line up didn't last longer

I thought they did some good stuff together.

Very good audience recording.

Vinyl Rip.

MEGA

All Hear My Warning...

 Very good audience recording of Metal legends,

Judas Priest.Fronted at this time by Ripper Owens.

The Metal God was off doing his own thing.

This is from Belgium back in 2001 and you get 

additional tracks from another show as well.

Ripper is fronting KK Downing's new band

and they've just released their first track on YouTube etc.

MEGA

What Ya Gonna Do?...Rock You!!...

 Some Canadian Metal from back in the 80's.

This is from a Much Music broadcast

so the quality is really good.

Anthemic Rock & Tear Jerkin' Ballads is what you're 

gonna get here.

I saw these guys back in 1983 supporting KISS.

What I took away from it was,wow,these 

guys put on a really energetic show.

Still a going concern as far as I know.

MEGA

I Know A Candy Man...

 Classic Rock from the '70's with Humble Pie.

Featuring one of the best frontmen ever in

Steve Marriott (A favourite of Paul Stanley).

It's intense,he's giving 100% and they're not afraid 

to stretch those songs out.

Not in a boring way either.

They've got their groove on!

MEGA

 

They All Come Out To Groove About...

 BBC Radio Documentary.

Phil Daniels narrates the story of the Small Faces.

Interviews and music.

Two 30 minute episodes.

MEGA

On The Edge Of Time...

Great show from the legendary Dio.

On their first tour.

Exciting times.

This one is from The Netherlands.

With a setlist that's hard to beat,

it's Heavy Metal Heaven.

 

MEGA

I'm The One Who Can Feel The Sun...

A soundboard recording by the voice of Foreigner live in New York 1987.

It's an excellent one track mp3 file featuring tracks 

from his two very good 1980s solo albums.

pixeldrain

 

Where The Skies Are So Blue...

Two classic Skynyrd live recordings in Tokyo 1977. 

It's simply Southern Rock at it's best.
