Don't Give In...


 Another session for the Friday Rock Show.
This time quality Melodic Rock from FM.
Now this is a band that should've challenged 
the big American AOR scene.
They had the sound and the songs.
Still releasing high quality albums I believe.
Tape Rip.


I Hear Some Rock 'n' Roll...


A four track recording from Swiss Rockers,Krokus
back in 1980.
Broadcast on the Friday Rock Show.
They had a pretty decent run back in the 80's.
Releasing a few successful albums.
My fav being One Vice At A Time.
An excellent tribute to AC/DC!



The Thunder Of Guns...


 Classic British Rock from Thunder.
We'll say it once more,great band.
Still doing it they've recently released a new album,
All The Right Noises.
So here they are Live From London,1990.



3/24/2021

Fast And Furious...


 A band that weren't afraid of the Heavy Metal tag.
They pretty much wrote the book on what Metal is,
in sound and image.
Fronted by the Metal God,Rob Halford.
Here we find them in France during the
Defenders Of The Faith tour.
A fine album and a worthy follow up to 
Screaming For Vengeance.
It's an audience recording but don't let that put you off.
The sound is great.

I Ain't No American Pie...


 Classic stuff from The Alice Cooper Band
way back in '72.
Mad,bad and dangerous to know.
From the Killer Tour,School's Out wasn't released until June.
Tho' they do play the title track from the album. 


3/23/2021

Just A Soldier Of Fortune...


 Early Whitesnake for ya 'ere! 
Honest Hard Rockin' blues from the 'snake 
back in '78.
Recorded in Hanley,England.
Great setlist featuring songs that that go from
the suggestive to the soulful.


 

Fair Warning,Be Ready...

 

Double tap for another fine four piece,out of 
San Francisco,Y & T.FM Broadcast from California 
and a soundboard from Japan. 
Back in the 80's when they were in their prime.
Unfortunately they couldn't really keep up
the quality of those 1st three albums they made
as Y & T.Live of course it's a different story.
That's where they've always Rocked.

Santa Barbara 1985

Japan 1986

Everybody Needs A Main Attraction...


More from Japan,this time Sweet.
Going by the songs should place it as 1976
on the Give Us A Wink Tour.
A band that should be mentioned in the 
same breath as all the other great 70's Rock Bands.
They had a strange career starting off as a bubblegum pop band.
(Not for me).
Then big success during the UK Glam scene.
I love all the Blockbuster,Hellraiser stuff.
They really came into their stride when they started doing
their own thing.Just great quality Hard Rock. 
So it says on the cover this is a soundboard.
If it is it's pretty rough.It's listenable,I enjoyed it
and it shows how heavy Sweet were.
Maybe not one for the casual fan.
Out of print.


Upon My Brow The Lightest Kiss...

 

A double shot from Queen,live in Japan.
Very good audience recordings from Osaka '76 
and Tokyo '75.
Covering the Sheer Heart Attack & 
A Night At The Opera Tours.
It's Epic!

Osaka 1976

Tokyo 1975

Just Like Every Night Has Its Dawn...


 Excellent set of studio sessions from one of our
fav's,Thin Lizzy.
Always interesting to hear songs we know 
before they're finished.Different lyrics etc.
Plenty of Gary Moore on show here.
Check the back cover for all the details.

Turn Your Radios On...


The Gene Simmons produced Van Halen demos.
He tried to get them a deal at the time,no one was interested.
The rest as they say is history.
 

You're A Victim Of...


OK time for the UK's one time shoot for the stars,
Glam Bangin' hot shots...Wrathchild.
With big hair and big choruses they really had a chance
to get somewhere.But record company problems
put paid to any momentum they had.
Now I'm not saying Wrathchild would've changed the
world.They were F-U-N! With a bucket load of 
catchy tunes.Here they are in all their glory
live in London 1984.



Wrathchild Bonus

Here's their three track demo from 1982.
Mascara Massacre.
I bought this thru an ad in Sounds mag
way back then.
Tape Rip.
