...First up this week is the latest from the Calm & Storm Label where the trend is to convert all of Miracle Man's tapes of skimmed japanese FM broadcasts and this one is ROD STEWART "Budokan 1981: FM Live Special" 1CD presenting the Rod Stewart Group live at The Budokan on January 12, 1981 and comes with a bonus DVD-R "Budokan 1981" a proshot television broadcast of the same event....
...On Wardour comes THE JEFF BECK GROUP "Fillmore West 1968" 1CD with a stereo broadcast upgrade of the July 24, 1968 show in San Francisco...this one comes with a bonus CDR - "Windsor 1967" a nice audience tape from The 7th Richmond Jazz and Blues Festival in Windsor, UK on August 13, 1967...Jumping to the 70's, there's a non label JEFF BECK with JAN HAMMER "Minneapolis 1976" CD on the way which contains a decent audience source of their June 26, 1976 outdoor show at Parade Stadium in Minneapolis and comes with the bonus "Live In San Diego 1976" CDR...
...New from Wendy Records seems to be a re-issue but frankly, I've lost track...LED ZEPPELIN "Performed Live In Seattle" 3CD features the fabulous audience recording from Seattle Center Coliseum on July 17, 1973...
...Another non-label production to pass along...look for ROXY MUSIC "The High Road Rehearsal: Summer 1982" 2CD and comes with the bonus DVD-R, "The High Road: The BBC Four Broadcast Version", a 50-minute proshot from Frejus, France on August 27, 1982 in proshot quality...
...Also via no label is this new KING CRIMSON set, "Central Park 1973" 1CD that documents their performance in New York City on June 25, 1973 from an audience recording...and early editions of this one come with the bonus DVD-R, "Central Park 1973 Remastered Edition" which is a transfer directly from 16mm film from the event...
...And finally, look for this new JIMI HENDRIX 2CD "Old Time: Record Plant Jams 1970", recorded on January 23, 1970...and on the ARMS Label is a re-issue of the classic ROLLING STONES title "Welcome To New York" which appears to be an audience/soundboard combo to present a complete show --which isn't the first time this has been done but, there you go. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!...
