Led Zeppelin January 11, 1969 - Filmore West (Soundboard) flac



Led Zeppelin January 11, 1969 - Filmore West (Soundboard) flac

This is a great snapshot of the mighty Zeppelin. Young. Hungry. Raw. Strong. Led Zeppelin I is in my top two albums of all times, and to hear them do several of these songs live and in soundboard quality, is outstanding. This recording was released as "Shonen Zep (Akashic label)". I could not find the front cover art to this recording (I did include the back cover), so I picked my favorite off the great Zeppelinart website and used that.

I have made an m3u playlist, encoded tags and encoded the artwork in the tags using MP3tag. Enjoy, and please leave comments!-RMac®

Robert Plant - Vocals
James Patrick Page - Guitar
John Henry Bonham - Drums, Percussion

Cream - Madison Square Garden, New York, NY, Oct. 24, 25, & 26, 2005 (flac)


Cream - Madison Square Garden, NY, NY Oct. 24, 25, & 26, 2005
These are high quality audience recordings from the historic Cream reunion of 2005.
.
.
The Cream are:
-
Jack Bruce: Bass, Vocals
Ginger Baker: Drums, Vocals
Eric Clapton: Guitar, Vocals.
.
.
I was there myself for the second night with floor seats. Though I had a lot of good Belgian Beer in me at the time (http://www.bxlcafe.com/) I distinctly remember what a great show it was. I was amused by the bickering between Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce (I guess Jack had his PA way too loud for Gingers liking and when he realized it, turned it even louder just to piss off Ginger... Really boys, 7 nights in one year and ya can't play nice?). I remember listening to the Albert Hall reunion shows and wondering why Slowhand didn't use the Wah-wah pedal on Sunshine Of Your Love? One of the most famous solos in history and you play it live with the original band and don't use it? Why? Well, he used it in NY, and brought a huge smile to my face. Hopefully listening to this will bring a huge smile to yours as well.
.
Included is the original poster for this historic three-night gig and two front covers I threw together. The flac files have artwork embedded and are all tagged and playlists have been created as well. Enjoy!

Sheryl Crow 8-16-1997 Sonic Studios, Philadelphia, PA "Sonic Sessions" flac






Sheryl Crow - "Sonic Sessions"

Sonic Studios
Philadelphia, PA
August 16, 1997

This is a really good recording of Sheryl Crow. I'm a big fan of this stage of her career and these songs are great live. I have changed the file names to reflect the song names, and have designed my album covers since the only one I found out there was pretty crappy. I have tagged the files with artwork and made em all pretty. The comments below are from the person who released this recording, not me. Enjoy!

-RMac©

NOT FM or PRE-FM sourced, this is from my DAT clone directly off the master.
MASTER 2 track SBD DAT>Panasonic SV-3800>Tascam DA-30MKII
Transfer: Tascam DA-30MKII>Sound Devices 702>Wavelab 5>CDWAV>FLAC



Track list:

01 - Soundcheck/Studio Audience Instructions
02 - Change
03 - Strong Enough
04 - Redemption Day
05 - Miss Creation
06 - Home
07 - tuning
08 - Run Baby Run

When I originally made a clone from the DAT master, an intentional 10 second cut was placed on my copy by the person who let me clone the DAT, I copied the cut portion at a later point when unattended, now seamlessly put back together for the 1st time. You have not ever heard this performance in it's entirety like this before!


Rapidshare links: DAMN! Links are dead on this one too. I will re-up when I can. 5/5/2009

Roger Waters & The Bleeding Heart Band - Quebec, Canada 5/22/87 Professionaly recorded by Westwood One FLAC



Roger Waters & The Bleeding Heart Band
Quebec, Canada 5/22/87
Professionaly recorded by Westwood One

I am doing two uploads of this recording. One is a Nero image file which will burn an exact copy of the silver CD with CD text added for CD text capable players, original artwork included. This CD will be found when using CDDB to get information on it!

Lineage: Silver CD>Copied by Nero 6.3.1.6 adding CD Text>CD-R>.nrg file (Nero Image file)>you

Second upload is flac files of this recording including original AND alternate artwork.

Lineage: Silver CD>EAC>wav>flac>you

As is my custom, I have created a playlist file and added the original artwork to the flac files using the great MP3TAG program. I have ripped this myself, includes front cover artwork. Enjoy!

Track List:

01 Radio Waves
02 Welcome To The Machine
03 Money
04 In The Flesh
05 Have A Cigar
06 Pigs
07 Wish You Were Here
08 Mother
09 The Final Cut
10 If
11 Powers That Be
12 Breathe
13 Brain Damage - Eclipse
14 Another Brick In The Wall

Track listing on the original artwork lists track 12 as Brain Damage, but when you CBDB the disc it comes up properly as Breathe. Track 13 shows as Eclipse but is Brain Damage/Eclipse. This is the famous Quebec show professionaly recorded by Westwood One. This has been highly bootlegged, but I haven't seen this particular release on any blogs or torrents (they may be out there, I just haven't seen them)l. The quality is astounding and Roger & The Bleeding Hearts were really on that night. The versions of the Pink Floyd songs have a bit of funk added to them by the guys and the result is great! I saw the Hartford show on that tour and it still ranks as one of the top five shows I have ever seen. I only wish the interplay between the DJ Jim Ladd, Billy, and everything else that went on during the show was here, but I think you can get a lot of that elswhere, though not at this level of quality. Enjoy the heck out of this and please leave a comment!

LED ZEPPELIN CABALA 8 CD BOXED SET


LED ZEPPELIN CABALA 8 CD BOXED SET

This is a very interesting Zeppelin set that has recordings from before the Zeppelin formed right thru till the last tour in 1980. The quality is outstanding and having all these recordings in one set makes this an excellent retrospective, well worth the time it will take to download it all. I have included all the artwork and all the info I have with the downloads. One note. When I downloaded this, none of the mp3’s had tags. I did tag all of them but the the artist listed on all the tags is simply Led Zeppelin even on the songs that are from solo works or from Yardbird songs or whatever. I just do not have the patience to go thru 8 cd’s worth of songs and tag all the artists correctly. Since this is a set dedicated to the history of Led Zeppelin, I just left it at that…

05 Emerald Eyes
06 Midnight Moonlight Lady

11 Stairway To Heaven

Cast of players:

Guitar - Jimmy Page
Vocals - John Miles
Bass - Durban Laverde
Drums - Jason Bonham

John Miles is quite an outstanding singer with a great vocal range. He is able to pull off covering songs originally done by both Robert Plant and Paul Rodgers, two legendary vocalists, as well as singing songs originaly crooned by the great Chris Farlowe.

To me, the highlight of this disc is Midnight Moonlight Lady. In the middle of MML, Jimmy breaks into White Summer, then Black Mountainside and back into MML. Wonderfully done.

In the begining...

In the begining G-d created the heavens and the earth... ok, this blog isn't about anything as serious as all that, it's simply about good music that you probably can't find in your local record store.



I will be posting links to download high quality mp3's and flac files of music I have collected from my own web surfing and music I have ripped myself. The difference between the files I post and what you may find on other blogs or sites is that I will post more "complete" mp3's. What I mean by this is that all of the mp3's I post will have the ID3v2 tags completed, artwork (if availble) embedded and included along with the music files, a playlist so you can simply double click and load the whole disc in original order and files names named in the following format "01 - Kashmir". Included in the downloads will also be whatever info I have on that recording. I will be mostly uploading the files in rar format as it is very versatile and easy to work with.



Winrar can be downloaded for free here: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm



As of right now, I will be uploading to the RapidShare file sharing service. I already paid for a premium account, so that is what I will use for now. If any dead links are found, please let me know and I will repost. I will update when I have time. Maybe weekly, maybe daily. Comments and contributions welcome!
