Cos I'm Free...

 Couple of promo cd's that came with the Classic Rock magazine.

First up Tesla and their cover versions.

It's pretty cool as they do songs that aren't the usual 

go to covers that every band does.

Can't believe this is from 2007!!

http://www.filefactory.com/file/77kvby0e61ec/TesReel.zip

Next a fine compilation from Black Stone Cherry.

Hits,Acoustic & Live.

This one is from 2014.

Of course if any of this from these two 

fine bands Rocks your boat. 

Buy their stuff.

Just A New Way...

 Seeing the Cry Of Love post made me dig this one out.

A 12" single.

You get a new mix and a couple of live tracks.

Yeah they should've had more success.

The Brother album was a goodie.

I think they only had the one album?

http://www.filefactory.com/file/1zu8xr9hdq2g/CoL.zip

He's Rounding First...

 Digging into the archives once again here's a 

nice little compilation from Knebworth Festival 1985.

Radio Broadcast.

Tape Rip.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/44zaxb8i0xag/Kneb85.zip

In The Midnight Hour, She Cried, MORE!

Here's Billy Idol on the Charmed Life Tour!

I think I read somewhere that the Date is Wrong on this One...

Should be the 27th or Somethin'...

Anyway, It was Recorded Live 

in Costa Mesa, CA in 1990!

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Now I'm There...

 One of my favourite guitarists

from one of my favourite bands.

Yep,the one and only Brian May.

Here he is with his band featuring Cozy Powell on drums.

I've got the Back To The Light cd but can't say I've listened to 

it much.I'm going to rectify that right now.

Radio Broadcast from the Imperator Club,

Rio De Janeiro,Brazil.

Well...they're seriously Rockin' here!

http://www.filefactory.com/file/1xa4ih29e1nu/BrianMay.zip

I Like It Like That...

 Next up Blues legend John Lee Hooker.

If it wasn't for guys like John we wouldn't be listening to our

Hard Rock & Metal today.

As we all know Blues is the basis for pretty much all Rock music.

Great sound on this as well.

Perfect for just (Boogie) Chillin'.

Learn Another Language For Free...

 

After Tom Petersson Left Cheap Trick, 

He started Work on Some Music 

that wouldn't get released Until 1984 

(He says, 'Cause of Legal Issues...)

This is That Music!

Tom dropped an "S" from his name -

(Or, he Reverted Back to His Given Name, Actually...)

He formed Tom Peterson and Another Language!

It's got a Missing Persons Kinda Vibe!

Kinda New Wave Soundin'...

It Features Tom's Then Wife, Dagmar on Most Vocals...

Tom does Sing My Car...

This is a Nice Vinyl Rip of the EP...

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Put Me In Coach, I'm Ready to Play!

 

You can Always count on 

The Georgia Satellites 

for a Rockin' Show!

I Don't Ever recall hearin' a Bad Performance from Them!

(Maybe less than Stellar Sound Quality, But that's Not their Fault!)

I'm-A-Talkin' 'Bout The Way They Played!

They seemed to Give it their All every show!

One of The Best LIVE Bands Ever!

Enjoy and Play It Really LOUD!

LITTLE Caesar Soundin' BIG at the Club...

 

Here's the Hard Rock band Little Caesar!

It's Just 5 Songs, But Well, 

There's Not many Good Soundin' Live Shows 

from This Band That I've Seen...

I Liked Their Rockin' Sound 

with Ron Young's Great Vocals!

I Still Listen to their First CD every now and again...

Here they are Live at The Country Club in Reseda, CA...

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

The Rider Wearing Black...

 The heaviest band with the massive groove.

Love them or hate them you know what you're getting here.

From Sweden back in 2000.

This is a great sounding one.

For a three piece they have a nice full sound.

It's a right head nodding,foot tapping listen.

Let's face it we're all too old for that

headbangin' stuff these days!!

http://www.filefactory.com/file/2ehvud492uwi/Sweden2000.zip

We Go Dancing Nightly...

 Alice from the Billion Dollar Babies Tour.

Great setlist and a great band at the top of their game.

I've had a quick think and...I'd say this is 

my favourite album from the band.

Probably as it was one of the first Alice albums I got.

Of course nothing lasts forever,Alice went solo

and had more success.

Fantasy Island!!

Isle Of Dreams Festival 1989 

Alright here's something I bought a 

few years ago.A nine album set of something

called The Isle Of Dreams Festival - 1989.

A Westwood One Radio Broadcast.

I never did anything with it apart from listen to it a few times.

Now I tried to find out about this Isle of Dreams Festival.

There wasn't much info because...it's not real!

It's a collection of previous broadcasts put together as 

if it's all taking place on the day.

With announcers making out they are watching the

bands come on stage.

So I've worked on this (on and off) for a couple of weeks.

Recording,splitting,tagging & uploading etc.

But you're not interested in any of that.

It includes all announcements,ads 

just in case you want that full Broadcast experience.

All bands are uploaded separately so you can grab want you want.

Take it all or mix and match.

A lot of bands here that are HRC favourites.

Anyway...Here We Go!

It May Be One of those Best of the Biscuit Type Shows!?

Only 'Bout 30 Minutes...

But, What's Here, Is Pure Classic Heart

With The Best Line-Up!

A Great, Short Listen!

Only 7 Songs, And Not a One Is Filler!

Heart Were Firin' on All Cylinders

Electricity Was Flowin' Through All Those Wires!

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Take a Ride on the Reading...

Someone a Long, Long Time Ago... 

Said, 

We Don't Listen to the Classic Rock Records Anymore, 

'Cause We Played 'Em So Much in Our Youth, 

That We Know 'Em By Heart!

I Don't Know 'Bout All That, But, 

I Haven't Listened to Led Zep IV

It's all good except Angie is not included,

it's not on the record.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/30s0o722tvf6/RSADTL.zip

And The Girls Are Pretty...

 A suitably energetic early show from the Gunners.

They don't take any prisoners and this is before

Appetite was released.

What a breath of fresh air that album was.

They play nearly the whole album here as well 

as a nod to a couple of influences in 

Aerosmith & Rose Tattoo.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/62cfav4nxi62/GnRMM86.zip

It's So Damn Hot...

 It's the Black Crowes being secretive.

Cover song city here and it sounds excellent.

Dunno the reason for the show but glad

we get to hear it.

Had this for a while and it's been up many times.

For those who haven't heard it...

http://www.filefactory.com/file/3fy85f7xob2k/Foamfoot.zip

Well,Everybody's Got A Secret,Sonny...

Fantastic stuff from Bruce & his band back in '78

on the Darkness Tour.

Not the full show of course there'd be about another 20 songs.

Not everybody's cup of tea but he's

proved himself to be one of the great

American songwriters and performers.
