Total Time = 01:28:00

This recording is incomplete. The very first song is missing and the track "Where's My Apple Pie," towards the end of the set, is also incomplete due to a tape change.  Comprised of two sets that cover a wide range of material, this concert captures Joan Baez at a uniquely transitional time in her career. Although she had dipped out of the popular music spotlight for several years, the sessions that resulted in her career rejuvenating album, Diamonds and Rust, were about to be completed. Baez was still a serious interpretive folk singer and political activist, but was beginning to embrace a more mainstream sound, and openly displaying a sense of humor on stage.

The material Baez chose to perform this night ranges from some of her earliest traditional material like "Kumbaya" and "Johnny I Hardly Knew Yeh" right up to songs featured on her most recent album, including "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," soon to become the biggest hit of her career.  The obligatory Dylan covers are featured, but rather than mining his "protest songs" of yesteryear, as had usually been the case, she chooses to interpret two of his more recent compositions, "Forever Young" and "Mama, You Been On My Mind," which she modifies accordingly.

During the second set, Joan's sister, Mimi Farina, makes an appearance on stage (for 2 songs), contributing to a particularly enjoyable sequence that showcases Joan's sense of humor and illustrates how captivating their voices could sound together. The sisters perform "Less Than a Song" and the old Southern hymn, "Ain't You Got A Right To The Tree Of Life."
Back to back versions of "Love Song To A Stranger," parts 1 and 2, are featured, as is" Where's My Apple Pie," a rare 45 single charity release sold only at her shows during this time. The set ends with Baez's angelic read of the traditional hymn "Amazing Grace," which she does as an audience sing-a-long.

story:
i got this in a trade about 10 years ago not from the guy who taped it at the time but from someone who had the master on lent then...it's a good recording although you can hear a slight hiss in the background but heh ! it was about 25 years ago !!
I went to the EATB show in Antwerpen last month but wasn't blown away. i think they were ok but not great. felt very uncomfortable with Ian's voice that's becoming thiner and thiner with time. As usual they played very very (too) loud which didn't help Ian not to shout most of the time. That said "show of strenght" is still a masterpiece 25 years after it was done !!!

After a short break after the tour of the Netherlands and then a one off concert supporting Nick Lowe in Chippenham, Elvis and the band have the briefest of respites before heading to Australia and New Zealand to help them prepare for a mammoth tour of the U.S. and the U.K. starting in July through until November. To add to this gruelling schedule, Elvis now finds it incumbent to play much longer sets than at any time in his career so most of the shows are checking in at over 2 hours compared to the 45 minutes sets often tossed out to an unsuspecting audience. This series starts off favourably with a rather tasty FM broadcast from Sydney station 2JJ. This has been available for a considerable time as the beautifully presented "Secondary Modern" bootleg CD but my recording has two additional tracks, "King Horse" and "Big Sister's Clothes". I have no recollection of where this recording came from or how there are 2 extra tracks but I've had identical files sent to me from two collectors in the U.S. and Europe and both concur with my recording so I'm confident it's genuine. Despite the review on the Elvis Costello wiki, http://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/index.php/Bootleg:_Secondary_Modern
I feel the sound quality is pretty good. My recording has less electronic/digital interference /noise than my boot CD which suggests it the boot is a high generation copy but there's precious little to disrupt your listening pleasure from my source.
To the concert then, Elvis introduces "Pidgin English" with the line that they've got a new album out in about a month's time - God Willing ! The audience seem pretty relaxed about whether there is new or old material until "Almost Blue" when there's a little less enthusiasm at the end . The playing on this song is exquisite and shows just how competent all The Attractions were as musicians - definitely not the punk -thrash three chord heroes of punk-new wave. The tracks not broadcast by the station are a strange mix of older singles and well loved album tracks and not playing the last two songs seems especially strange - maybe one day the whole concert will become available. Further to this, the previous show is listed as exisitng as an audience recording but I have never seen it in circulation and the old stalwarts of collecting from the 70s and 80s on this side of the Atlantic and in the U.S. never had a recording either so if anyone, anywhere does have one- you know who to call !!

Notes
The best sounding, most complete version available of this FM broadcast to date. The beginning of Told You So is patched using a pretty bad sounding source, but otherwise the rest of the concert sounds excellent.

Dave misses an entire verse during More Than A Party. This recording is currently the only soundboard-quality source for And Then....

This was the live concert debut of People Are People; this is a "hybrid" playback / live performance, with choruses mostly playbacked and verses sung live. Some interesting synth lines are played in contrast to later live versions of the 1984-1985 Some Great Reward Tour. This version of People Are People was first performed at 1984-03-30 The Tube, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear, England, UK/Source 1, a short television performance, but as mentioned earlier, this was the first time People Are People was played during a concert.

Originally from the soundboard, this sounds about as good as it can get. Beautifully balanced & mixed, this has been taken from the silver cd 'Obscure & Obscene' - the files came to me without lineage, but the rip is clean so I suspect it's been done with EAC. The show itself is a really good representation of the band circa '85, pleasantly brutal & with their first two albums played almost in their entirety - what's not to like?

My intention was to post this last week on Monday but I got an impromptu job trip for the week. Then I was going to post both this and the headliner last night to make up for missing last week and my neighbors house caught on fire. Not what I expected to happen at all. The weird thing was I was listening to Roger Waters Deja Vu a half hour before the fire happened. When I was 9 years old, two friends and I went underneath a one room school portable and made a little fire to hang out. We put it out as planned. It was a Saturday. On Monday morning we went to school and the portable was a heap of black rubble. We all swore never to mention it or we would be going to prison. That's what we thought at 9 years old. That happened in early December. Then on Christmas morning, another friend and I were riding our new bikes when we saw smoke coming from the other block. We raced over with our mouths making siren noises and rode between the homes to the other block. The garage was pouring out flames. I went to the front door and opened it as it was unlocked. I started yelling to get out of the house that it was on fire. They all stumbled out and said they were taking sleeping pills from a Christmas party the night before (they were probably doing drugs but I didn't know about that kind of thing at 9 years old). We saved the whole family from dying of smoke inhalation. We hit the lottery though as kids, because they owned Marchiano's pizza and they gave us two boys lifetime pizza and sodas there. Oh yea! In the December school bulletin, it said, 'Our hats off to me for saving the Marchiano family in a Christmas Day blaze by noisemaking to wake them up...', the second paragraphs said, 'Still no clues to who burnt down the one room school portable...'.

So yesterday, after listening to Deja Vu, I decided at that moment to go out and get some food. Shut off the stereo and walked outside. I smelled something like burning plastic and thought that didn't smell right. So I looked at my home and noticed nothing and then to my neighbors home to the left of me. Nothing. Then I looked back towards my house and could see something like smoke over my tall tree in my front yard. I walked around the trees and my neighbors garage and bonus room above it were engulfed in flames. I ran to their front door, went to open it and it was locked. I banged on the door and my neighbors came and opened it. They were sitting in front of the TV. They had no idea of what was going on. Ugh. I got them out of the house and everyone lived. Deja Vu to almost 40 years ago when it first happened this way. Weird. I guess I have made up for burning that portable down twice now! That is why I am posting the shows today. Onto the release....

I only have one request, that you don't take these files and post them on other torrent sites. I have many shows to upload. I will upload, let them get seeded by others and after a majority have downloaded the files completely, remove my files so I can seed something new. I prefer to manage my own shows on DIME and The Traders Den. I will upload to other sites when I wish to for select shows. Thanks for honoring my wishes in advance.

This is “CBG Classic Master Video Series Vol. 62”.

In 1987, I was still only audio taping when Def Leppard came through the northeast on their Hysteria world tour. I knew Def Leppard but I didn’t know much about the warm up band they had supporting them. They had their first album Mechanical Resonance out by then and their song Modern Day Cowboy was being played on the radio a lot. I really liked that song, so I planned on recording them as well. Turns out, I liked a lot of the songs they played on first listen at the show. I went out and bought the album after that concert.

A couple years later in 1989, they were the support act for Poison’s first headlining tour for Open Up and Say…Ahh! They were playing our local fairgrounds in Middletown, NY. I had never filmed there, but the NYBG had filmed there before. He would have his partner get the camera in because he was a large guy and could put that huge Sony V5 down his pants and keep it concealed. I could have never done that with that large camcorder and the security at the Orange County Fairgrounds would search you fairly well. Filming and standing the whole time was not the NYBGs favorite thing to do. That was something I liked to do and it was more of the element I liked to film in. Standing in a crowd where I could blend in. Standing and holding the camcorder to my face. I also wanted to film this show and the warm-up band too. So the NYBG and Tom helped me get my camcorder in and do the show.

I started filming on the bleachers in the back for Tesla because I thought I would get popped being so close on the floor filming like the NYBG did it. Especially in the daylight. This was in June when the days were the longest and it was daylight up to 9pm. They would set the stage up in the infield of a race track (it was also Orange County Raceway) and it would face the grandstand on one side. There was a little infield within the oval race track where the GA crowd would stand. After a song or two, the NYBG convinced me to come down to the floor from the bleachers and that he made a wood chip mound for me to stand on. You see, they would fill the infield with woodchips for the crowd to stand on in front of the stage. So, NYBG would go there, and use his foot to scoop up a mound of wood chips to stand on. That way you could be a little higher than everyone else standing on the flat floor. He contested that the Security would not care if I was filming in the GA crowd like that and not come out and get me. That worked mostly and definitely to date with him.

So now I am down on the floor and we made a wood chip mound and I was able to stand up on it and I would be about a foot taller than the crowd of people around me. There would always be a few tall guys and you would get guys putting their chicks on their shoulders, but they couldn’t keep that up for the whole show. So, there you would be on a wood chip mound for the show sticking out of the crowd like a sore thumb and have a huge camcorder to your face filming. I thought for sure I would be popped but I wasn’t. It was daylight for the beginning of Tesla's set too. I was able to film the whole band up close and in their face from the floor. Other than Kiss at the Ritz in 1988 and Paul Stanley at Toad’s Place in 1989, both bars, I had never filmed like this close before in a normal concert setup. Especially in a summer shed or arena. So this was fun to do. I didn’t even need to use the 2x lens on my camcorder to get added closeness. I could have but it was nice to be able to zoom back and get the whole stage view with no ring from the lens. Being that close, you wanted to be able to zoom back as much as you could to get the full stage view too. I was right up front. After the Kiss, Paul Stanley and Tesla shows, I started to get my Modern Day Cowboy BALLS to do this sort of thing. Get Ballsy and shoot the show up close to the band. It wasn’t like now where you can whip out your iPhone and film against the stage back in 1989. It had to be done on a camcorder, a large one. And you had to have balls to do it. In an arena doing that you would have been tackled by those goon security guys and who knows what would have happened. This show that didn't happen.

At the 4:52 mark and again at the 6:18 mark in the show, I was able to zoom in on Kiss Konvention Marrrrrrvvvvvv, the dude behind the barricade who would take all of your money for Kiss Houston Love Gun proshots that he milked everyone's money for through the 80's and 90's. Enjoy Tesla rocking out the fairgrounds in Middletown! CBG5150 Posted to TTD 2017-07-03.

A real nice cap of the Cult as they exit stage one of their career. This was an outdoor festival with lots of other bands on the bill, including grunge favorites Pearl Jam and L7. 

By 1992 it was clear who owned "alternative" music as the Cult had once enjoyed that status years earlier. So it's interesting to note a few things about their performance here; the opener being their biggest hit "She Sells Sanctuary" which is usually saved for later in the set, if not the closer...the wandering setlist that covers their first four albums...and the edgy-fuzzy-almost-grungy tone to the guitars. Definitely a much thicker guitar sound than they had ever displayed before.

Notes:
The sound is really excellent. There are some very slight flaws in the recording...an edit here and there (first couple of seconds of Sweet Jane are cut), but nothing that makes this less than a superb soundboard recording. However, there are some dropouts during the soundcheck.

I will say that Cale sounds great as usual (especially his piano on ATP) and Sterl's guitar lines sound as perfect as I have heard on any VU recording from the 60's. Moe is simply...Moe! Lou's voice sounds great (compared to today), but his phony banter with the audience is nauseating. I remember reading how before the reunion gigs, Lou was frustrated with the sound he was getting from his guitar on "I'm Waiting for The Man." He just couldn't get it to sound as powerful as on the records. Moe had to remind him that he used to ONLY hit the strings on the downstroke during that song!
