Running Just As Fast As We Can...

Alright here's another artist I'm not familiar with,

Tommy James and the Shondells.

Starting out in 1964 playing that Rock 'n' Roll.

They had a couple number one hits back in the day.

What's interesting is looking at 

the setlist you'll recognise a few of those song titles. 

The cover versions are more familiar to me,

Billy Idol-Mony Mony,

Joan Jett-Crimson and Clover and the biggie...

Tiffany-I Think We're Alone Now!!

if anybody remembers her from the 80's.

Very Good audience recording from 2018.

Don't Try Following Me...

 

Here's an excellent audience recording from Mountain

back in '74.One of the bands usually credited 

with being a big influence on future Heavy Rock/Metal 

and Blues Rock bands.

Of course this one features the Classic Rock Radio staple,

Mississippi Queen.

and a nice soundboard recording.

Plenty of info inside the download.

And Get Yourself Some Sweet Rock 'n' Roll...

Excellent stuff from early Whitesnake.

Back when they were a Blues Rock band without

much of an image.

Here they are on BBC Radio back in 1978.

As much as I enjoyed the later Whitesnake and the hits etc.

I'll take this pre Americanised version all day long.

Fade Into Shadow,You'll Burn...

An excellent sounding unofficial 

DVD audio rip of the classic 

Hammersmith,1982 show.

Unfortunately not quite the full 

show but it sounds really powerful 

with the sound cranked up. 

One audio file.

And It's One Of Those Nights...

The Stones on the Black And Blue Tour from 1976.

From legendary venue The Apollo,Glasgow,Scotland.

to make it more listenable.

Sounds like a great gig,band and audience

right into it.

Please Don't Go...

Here's one that's been sent in by Rick as you can see.

I must admit they're a band I've never heard of.The Grass Roots.

Having a quick look they had some hit singles

and sold a few albums.Apart from that they're American

and if you like 60's Rock it'll be right up your street.

All They Wanted Was To Be Free...

Strange bootleg time!!

OK if you go back to the most recent Tom Petty upload

that includes Gainsville 1987.

This is the same recording except this recording 

for track 7 has,The Ballad Of Easy Rider.

The other upload has,The Image Of Me as track 7.

Apart from that they both seem to be the same?

Anyway enjoy,silver cd rip.

The Essence Of The Soul...

Pretty good FM Broadcast from one of the more interesting

alt. bands from the 80's,Faith No More.

Lots of different influences here.

Plus they did release the most excellent,The Real Thing album

back in 89.That's when I noticed them

especially the single,

From Out of Nowhere.

Silver cd rip.

I See Bad Times Today...

Here's one of the best bands of all time at a little shindig called

Great performance full of top tunes.

The Mission Complete...

Maiden on the Somewhere in Time tour  in 1986.

It's a fairly well known bootleg concert from Sheffield. 

 A good recording with an excellent 

setlist full of classic songs as Maiden gallop across the UK.

Wired To Self Destruct...

The second UFO reunion tour of 1997 and '98 

rolls across Europe this time in Michael's home country 

of Germany.Where UFO were always popular since the early 70s.  

A pretty decent performance and sound  

with the standard setlist for this tour.

Not sure what to make of Schenker's appearance

and Phil Mogg's bleach blonde hair though.

I Sold My Soul To Be The Human Machine...

Here's a show from Metal Godfathers,Black Sabbath.

From January 1976.

Or is it?

Ozzy mentions a couple of times here's a song from the new 

album which is Sabotage from July 1975.

So hardly just released.

War Pigs is missing from my copy

so the cover nearly matches up.

Anyway it's an enjoyable show.

Over to you,bootleg detectives!
