brief , workout of "Mannish Boy"

   on this evening.

The band was full of energy, and put

on a great show. To think it was the

beginning of almost 30 years of

concerts.

This is the heavily booted radio show from Virginia in 1987, but this is the complete show. I mixed the radio show I recorded with soundboard and audiences sources to present the almost complete gig (the audience taper didn't record much of Kramer's solo and it wasn't on the broadcast.) It is also in the correct order. The broadcast flipped "Train" and "Walk This Way." I tried to fade transitions in so the sound isn't jaring when sources change. Feel free to edit this so make it smoother.

Comments :

It sounds like it's from a board tape versus FM. Seems like someone is dialing up Hamilton's bass during  "Seasons Of Wither" as you might hear on a board tape, but who knows. The band was broadcasting many of its shows around this time, though I have never seen an FM of this. The source sounds edited after "Rats," so maybe there is more out there.

People might recognize this date from "Live Bootleg!"  The album lists "Chip Away The Stone" as from this night, but a close listen reveals it is not at all! I also gave a close listen to the 4/7/78 audience of "Chip Away The Stone" and it's not from that night either.

That means that "Chip Away The Stone" from  "Live Bootleg!"  is not from Santa Monica or this tape is from another locale. For now I'll go with the former.

This tape is a fun listen, nice quality (though not pristine) and the band and it's most out of control, yet they pull it all together. A lot of people comlplain about 1978 Aero, saying they played poor and were drugged out. While the latter may be true, to me the band is at its best here...rocking and funky...listen to Brad and Joe's twin guitars as the end of "Sweet Emotion." Cool shit.

I had an Unobstructed view for this

show although I was a little far way. Section 109 if you want to look it up.

Although, it may not be reflected in

my recording the sound at Boardwalk hall was great.

   The audience was really for this show and I think the band

really felt the audience get into it. Steven even commented that this was

the best show of the tour. It was great to hear King and Queens live as well as a bit of Home Tonight. It's not the best recording, but it isn't the worst. Hope you enjoy it for what it is.
