We'll Do It All Again...


Sound starts off poor but soon levels off
into an enjoyable show.
Pete Way's second band and very good they were too.
Mostly not straying too far from that classic UFO Hard Rock style.
Here they are captured in Scotland at a two day music festival.
Featuring all Scottish bands it would seem.
Nazareth,Pallas & Frankie Miller to name a few.
Tape Rip.

We Can Fly Around The Sun...



A hard band to label.It's Melodic Rock with a bit of Prog and throw in some 70's Glam and you're pretty much there.All my fellow music/gigaholics have been telling me I must go and see these guys live as they are amazing so on a cold Sunday night off I go to Islington to see if the hype is correct AND well sort of...First surprise was downstairs which is usually standing was all seated which made this old man weep with joy BUT during the gig anyone wishing to stand was told to sit which kind of ruined the atmosphere.Now don't get me wrong I do like what they do both musically and visually BUT I just don't get the songs...hey ho it's worth a listen.Enjoy,Ed.

The Eagle Not The ,Dove...



An excellent Robin Trower show 
from the,For Earth Below album tour.
 This old bootleg has been released in 
many different versions over the years 
this version is the original (and best). 
Complete with the BBC announcer between songs 
 exactly the same as my old cassette I 
recorded off the radio back in 1975.







 

Don't Step On Snails,Don't Climb In Trees...



UK prog rockers Argent live in New York on the famous 
US TV show in 1973. 
On the In-Deep album tour.
It's a good sounding one track DVD audio track.
Featuring two of their hit singles,Hold Your Head Up 
and God Gave Rock And Roll To You 
composed by singer songwriter Russ Ballard. 
And of course plenty of keyboards by Rod Argent.

Hysterical,Cast A Spell...



An excellent sounding recording from the 
classic lineup of the Power Trio.
Really cranking out the riffs on the 
Iron Fist tour in Newcastle 1982.
This bootleg  was released to celebrate the 
20th anniversary of the band in 1995 
and included the unreleased 
studio track at the time,Black Leather Jacket.








 

There's Nobody Home...



A Right Earful! is a free 16 track compilation CD by 
Classic Rock magazine in the UK a few years ago. 
With the usual mix of popular and unknown bands.

We All Need Somebody...


 Well they're back and about to embark on one of the
most expensive reunion tours of all time.
I'm talking ticket prices!
Anyway back to simpler times here they are on a 10th
anniversary tour back in 2001.
Playing selective dates we find them in good
form at Glasgow's Barrowlands.
Did a little digging and this one was filmed
and broadcast on TV.Seemingly it pops up now and again.
Missing three songs as they were never broadcast.

Great setlist with plenty of tracks off that album
 surprising in the setlist the song Bad Company is not played.








 

Coloured Lights Can Hypnotize...



An entertaining show by veteran Swiss Rockers 
doing what they do best.Playing Hard Rock 
live as they have done for the past 50 years. 
 An excellent sounding dvd audio 1 hour long. 
 A one track mp3 file.

They Said Yes,I Said No...



Good audience recording from the classic Bon Scott era. 
It's hard to believe while listening to this that the following year 
Bon would be gone and the 
Back in Black album would propel the band to 
one of the biggest bands in the world.








 

My Eyes Are Wide Open...

 



There are many versions of this around 
this one is a rip of my original bootleg CD I bought back around 2015.
A compilation of 1974 shows. 
An excellent Soundboard from Atlanta USA and 4 tracks at the Marquee Club.
It's classic early UFO with Michael Schenker at their best.

Because I Stand In Front Of You...


 Deep Purple and the Blackmore,Coverdale,Hughes,Lord
& Paice lineup.

Spread The Word Today...

 

          

A well-known Ozzy Osbourne bootleg from 1983.
An excellent soundboard recording and 
performance from what surely must be 
one of the best line ups of his solo bands.
  Jake E. Lee on guitar, Tommy Aldridge - drums
 Bob Daisley - bass and Don Airey - keyboards.

  (The file doesn't match the cover listing but the music's all there)






 

He Feels It From His Soul...

 



Deep Purple mk8 playing the classic 1972 album 
Machine Head in full including the excellent 
When A Blind Man Cries in 2004.
Ian Gillan may not scream as he once did and 
Steve Morse is no Ritchie Blackmore 
but it's a very enjoyable 49 minutes of classic Purple. 

(A one track Mp3 file)
