      Queen's "The Works"
      Motorhead's "Rock'n'Roll"

      and millions of mix tapes...
      Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                Torrent that motherfucker!! I used to have the same show, but my tape long ceased to exist. I had it worn out even before the Tribute CD was released. But the overdubs are more than obvious. I think Ozzy recorded the entire vocal track in the studio.

                  I've been digging through my dad's tape boxes(without his permission, he usually jumps all over my ass about it), and I've found some cool stuff. Here's a few examples:

                  1. Guns N Roses-Appetite For Destruction(He lost it a year ago, he's still pissed)
                  2. AC/DC-Live(I remember when he bought it, I was 3)
                  3. Kiss-Smashes, Thrashes, and Hits(He only listens for the classic stuff)
                  4. Foreigner-Greatest Hits and Beyond(He has the same damn album on a friggin CD.)

                    I've had many, many tapes, more than LPs actually. I've bought a lot of CD re-releases over the years, but there still are albums that I only have on tape, like the Eagles or U2 up to "Rattle & Hum".

                    One day in 1990, in a hypermarket, I found a German cassette containing 7 songs from Led Zeppelin's Dallas concert of May 1975. I knew that there was no reference of it in LZ's Atlantic/Swan Song catalogue... It was the only copy there on the shelves, and I thought how odd and damn lucky that find could be - and of course I couldn't wait getting back on my car and play it...
                    What a shock. The sound was so huge, it sounded like it was both soundboard and atmospheric - you know, like the glorious way the BBC recorded the Isle of Wight Festival... This 54' tape completely overshadowed my copy of the 1973 Madison Square Garden from then on.
                    I felt like I'd bought a stellar boot at a regular store - which was the case; the department manager in there obviously didn't know what he put on his shelves.
                    "Rock and Roll", "Over the Hills and Far away" and, above all, "In my time of dying" and "Kashmir" were just unbelievable. I'm still beyond amazed every time I listen to that tape. Led Zeppelin were in no hurry that night - Robert takes 2 or 3 minutes between each song to speak to the audience in a most relax way. The only problem on the tape is "The song remains the same" was unashamedly edited... Not my fave song, but well... This is no way to treat Led Zeppelin.
                    Today I know the show had been broadcast on air and the whole of it was put on CD. But the feeling of finding, unwrapping and playing this particular tape remains hard to beat.

                        And the inner notes (well, there weren't that many - an address in Germany, though! I erased it willingly. ).

                          Here it is this time. I realise it was recorded in March and not in May as I wrote earlier.

                              On that call, you were thinking wisely...if that's Beast from the East you're referring to (so I assume), that's one of the best live albums I've ever heard, bar none...

                              George Lynch is fucking incredible on that album, Don's singing is very solid and the production quality is through the roof...

                              Jeff and Mick are really tight with each other...

                              Great track selection...

                              Remains to this day one of my all time favorite live albums ever. Definitely one of the best hard rock live albums ever recorded, IMO.
