NOTE
This is the early show/set, all of which was broadcast. After 20+ years of searching, I never found the late show/set. This show marked the return of Gary Duncan, whom left one year earlier, on Dec. 31 1968 (no known recordings) to clean himself up. From what I heard from band members, part of the deal with him coming back was the band also added his friend, Dino Valenti, into the fold. Dino started out just as a new member of the band. Sad that by mid 1970, his massive ego, at the time, put himself as the so-called LEADER of it. Any Cipollina era QMS is well worth having, imho. It just wasn't the same when Dino did that

This set was part of a long New Year's Eve concert put on at the Winterland from 8pm to 6am by Bill Graham. Performers were: Hot Tuna, The sons (of Champlin), QMS, New Years Jam (members of many of the bands), Jefferson Airplane, The Sons, QMS, Jefferson Airplane.

I'm really impressed by the quality and sound of this recording. The taper obviously knew what they were doing and did it very, very well. This is an excellent recording of a 1977/78 Kansas concert. The show began New Year's Eve and ended after midnight on New Year's Day. The band does the countdown to the new year right before "Carry on Wayward Son". This recording sounds a lot like a soundboard throughout most of the show due to the clarity and lack of crowd noise.

There are a few disc break options but this one was the most sequentially convenient one (a commercial break between tracks 7 and 8 was edited out. There were a couple of those in this broadcast and track 8 begins with the radio DJ saying and once again the Marshall Tucker Band...) Thanks to the one spliced track this is the complete show. All the songs are complete and the only reel change started just before a song.

The penultimate show of the tour includes great versions of "Jungleland" and "The Fever" and the last known "Pretty Flamingo" (until 2003). This is the famous "Firecracker show" where someone threw one on stage which hit Bruce, provoking a rant from Steve Van Zandt. During the next tour Bruce would regularly ask people not to let off firecrackers. 
Soundboard (which has none of the encores) and audience tapes. Sound is good. The soundboard portion is available on CD 'The Firecracker Show' (Moonlight). The audience tape (Unbooted) covers the encores, but cuts during "Quarter To Three". The soundboard and audience tape have been combined to form the complete show, available as 'The Firecracker Night' (Earlmv).

Here's a Blondie show from New Year's Eve 1979 a few have requested lately. I'd shared it 5 years ago but a lot has changed (mainly the links and services) since then.

I first really "heard" Blondie in 1980. I'd likely heard her on the radio prior to that, but I found an 8-track tape of her in 1980 and fell in love with her voice. I wasn't allowed to listen to rock 'n' roll as a kid so I missed out (back then) on a lot of great artists and had to sneak around to finally start listening to the music I loved. My dad actually found my first Blondie cassette tape and smashed it against a brick wall. When he came across the Blondie 8-track tape, he used a Roberts R7 (I think that's the model...been to long ago) reel-to-reel recorder with and 8-track port to record over it. Today, I own that Roberts reel-to-reel recorder and things area lot different. I think this is half the reason I love music, and especially the late 1960's - early 1980's music, so much. The other half is that it was just excellent music!

The last song. "Sunday Girl", is only 3 minutes, 6 seconds long and the credits start rolling right before the song fades out and the program ends. I could've used the standard DVD burner's menu, but instead I decided to just make this a put in and play DVD with no menu. If I ever build another DVD project out of this I'll add a menu.

There was some confusion the first time I uploaded this DVD as to whether or no it was from the officially released 1979 Apollo Theatre DVD. It isn't. That show was from March of 1979, and while I don't have it, the TV program noted that this show was on December 31st, 1979 before it began airing.

I think Blondie and her whole band were at their prime in this time period. Her voice is flawless and the music, while still having some disco types of sound (I never liked disco and never will) in some songs, was much more rock 'n' roll sounding with guitar, keyboards, drums, and the likes.

Notes:
Track start errors would include the deletion of the incomplete Rock 'N' Roll High School...as one of John's Marshall JMP heads blew its tubes - I was actually at this show (at age 16) and it was as intense as it sounded - Ramones live shows in the early 80's were about the music, and the balls that music possessed - Later, into the 90's, it became about how fast they could now play with Cjay in the band - Sadly, what WERE once the greatest rock and roll anthems of the punk rock era were reduced to 1:18 versions of songs that were blisteringly fast on Leave Home at 1:57

DOVE - Gotta serve somebody 1979-12-31 SOUNDBOARD

Notes by the uploader
The show was DOVE/X/DEVO. DOVE was the guys from DEVO as a born again Christian act. This is a rare recording of them. And it seems to be the only audience tape of this show. Also the X set is now in circulation for the first time, if you want the complete show.

Which I believe to be the soundtrack from a proshot video. The video of DOVE - Worried Man is on youtube. Anybody got it complete???

And finally, some memories from someone that was there. L.B. Arena was where I saw my first concert (Humble Pie) and many great ones after. This was my second DEVO show,I saw them at Santa Monica Civic in July. They went froms 2 shows a night in clubs and auditoriums, to a headline act at an arena in just months. I came in as the house lights went out and DOVE was going on. The mic breaks down into 3 pieces, no way I could use it until I got to a seat to assemble it. So DOVE is recorded walking around the arena with the internal mic only. I didn't know DOVE was DEVO until the middle of the second song. Never heard worried man before that, so it took DEVO songs to make me look closer. Most of the audience was oblivious until booji boy came out, then about half of them got it and they were telling the other half. Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA was longer so Bob M. could climb up the rows of seats while playing,Up to the walkway around the arena and back. Fill time till midnight. The explosions at midnight were way bigger than they should have been. I was at the back of the arena floor risers and the heat from the blasts was like the sun! Mark was dressed as baby New Year, wearing just a diaper a new year sash and the rubber mask (with glasses).He was center stage for the 1st blast, then he ran! How he didn't get fried like an egg I don't know. After the blasts stop, the audience is quiet for a moment... just stunned.

Here comes another SSJ recording.
This was not listed in the db.etree.org database. I'm not sure how rare this is, but I'd bet that it'll be new for many of you. The tape flips were between tracks 9 & 10 and 17 & 18. There are random tape stops between some of the songs near the end, most likely to preserve tape. The only song that is cut, is track 17. It cuts off at the end.
