Now, You Remember me Tellin' about Cap'n Swing, Right?
Well, Apparently This Concert Took Place Sometime in APRIL 1977!
Now, That's Significant 'Cause The Cars Became The Cars Sometime Around February 1977...So, That Means They'd ALL Been Together for About 2 Months at this Point! And, It Kinda Shows in Some Places...
The 1st Song, I Believe, Ben Sings...Listen Closely and He Starts to Come In a Tad too Early, And They Sound a Little Loose on a Few Songs...Elliot is Solid Throughout!
Also, The Cars Didn't Start Recordin' Their First Album Until February 1978!
Also, Again, On THIS Recording They Do a Couple Cap'n Swing Songs: Strawberry Moonlight & Lover and a Holiday!
I Made The Covers With Those Old Bootlegs in Mind - You Know The White Record Sleeves with The Papers Pasted on...
Anyway, This Is Pretty Cool To Listen To a Band In The Makin'
I Hope You Enjoy This One As Much as I Do!
Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Not Much Else To Say,
IF You Like This Kinda Stuff,
I Don't Think You'll Be Disappointed!
There's Only 5 Songs Here, But Naz Picked Some Good'uns!
This Flight Tonight is Always Good and Of Course, One of the 3 Saddest Songs I Think I've Ever Heard - Woke Up This Morning! And It's Not a Ballad or a Blues Song?
When You Don't Have Much Time
and Want Some Naz,
This'll Do The Trick!
Nazareth - Long Beach California 1976 (320)

And They Get Into Some Live Versions of Quite a Bit Off
The Hair of the Dog album on

Like the Rarely Played Loved And Lost and Changin' Times!
EVERYONE Should HAVE THIS ONE!
It's A CLASSIC: IT'SNAZ!

Right Around the Time of Their Excellent Live Album 'SNAZ -
Here's an FM Broadcast for You!
They Sounded a Little Different with the Addition of Billy Rankin and John Locke...
But, Still, It Was Good!
All The Information Is on the Back Cover!
Live from New York City - It's The Amazing
Blue Öyster Cult!!!!
Live from The Palladium for 2 Shows (an Early and a Late one...)!
It's the Same Setlist for Both But (We Don't Care!) it's a Pretty Good Setlist for the Time and Quite Varied as well!
They start at The Beginnin' with Stairway to the Stars ("I Think I'll Sign It, Good Health To You") and Then Bounce Back and Forth with Harvester of Eyes ("That's Me") Dr. Music (Another Example of the Syndrum in the Late 70's!) to Hot Rails To Hell ("The Heat From Below Can Burn Your Eyes Out") and Then The Rest and Out!
All The Info Is On The Back Cover!
Enjoy and Play It LÖUD!
It was Recorded LIVE in New York City, Back in 1982 (Not Sure of the Venue?) But was Broadcast on King Biscuit!
It's Relatively a Short Concert (Just 7 Songs) But Aldo and The Band Were Particularly On Fire That Night!
They Play Pretty Much the Bulk of That First Album!
If You Really Listen to the Lyrics of Several Songs...
Someone Did That Boy Wrong!
Aldo Seems To Have Gotten Burned by Some Girl Sometime Before Writin' Those Batch of Songs!
But, I Guess He Ended Up Gettin' The Last Laugh...
'Cause He Hit The Big Time With That Record!
Hope You Enjoy This Show Half as Much as I Do...
Enjoy and Play It LOUD!
smoker just told me That This Would Be the 200th Post since We Re-Started Hear Rock City!
And We've ONLY Been Back, What? A Month?
WOW!!!
Now, Here's Something Fairly Rare for ALL You STARZ FANZ!
It's Richie Ranno's Very First Solo LP After Starz!
It Was ONLY Released On Vinyl back in 1984!
He Never Transferred It to CD AND Doesn't Even Sell It Over at starzcentral
Now, IF You've D/L This Before, Then You Might Wanna Think About Gettin' It Again!
Why? You Ask?
Well, I Re-Did It From Scratch! And I Believe I Have a Much Better Soundin' Version This Time Around!
So, Happy 200 Posts to Hear Rock City and May We Have Many, Many Hundreds More...
Here You Get a Full Show of the Daisies Live from Rockpalast!
So, The Quality is Outstanding, as Is the Performance by the Band!
They Play a Goodly Amount of Tunes With Guitar and Drum Solos as well as a Medley of Songs!
It's from Way Back in 1985!
In Atlanta, Georgia at The Buckhead Bar -
Just the Kinda Place They Liked to Play!
And, Of Course, As Always -
They Leave The Stage A-Smokin'!
Greg and The Band Are Right On It Here in This Great FM Broadcast from Santa Cruz Back in the Summer of 1984! They Play The Hits, But The Covers Are Really Good, Too!
