Todays first download is a set by Steely Dan that was recorded at the National City Pavillion, Cincinnati, Ohio on the 13th July 2008. This is in superb quality and the audio for the set has been taken from the soundboard and it sounds top notch. Steely Dan are a fantastic band - Donald Fagen and Walter Becker being the two main artists but they always have a great backing band and this show is no different. Some real classics on this one including "The Royal Scam""FM" and "Kid Charlemagne" all being played. I've posted a lot of shows by SD over the years and this is another top bootleg for the collection. I thought I'd previously posted this one, but I cannot see it in my files, so I guess not. If you like Steely Dan - download this great show... this is thoroughly recommended...

This is Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen and a set recorded in Rotterdam, Netherlands on the 28th August 1973. For a bootleg thats over 40 years old this is in superb quality with the audio for the show being taken from an FM broadcast of the show and it sounds top notch. Commander Cody (George Frayne) has released over 20 albums since 1971 and many compilations and singles.

Todays first download is a set by Eric Clapton that was recorded at the Convention Center, Dallas Texas on the 15th November 1976. The quality of this bootleg is absolutely superb - pin drop perfect sound and the audio has been taken from a pre-fm master soundboard and it sounds fantastic - easily one of the best sounding EC boots I've ever heard. The mix is bang on and all the instruments are right up in the mix and the stereo is top notch as well. This isn't the full show but it's still a must have if you like ol' slowhand. This is thoroughly recommended and then some... Here is a download link I found for :- Live at the Convention Center, Dallas, TX 15.11.76 - Eric Clapton (Bootleg) Quality : Superb

Todays second download are some more studio recordings - this time by Pink Floyd. These are The Extraction Tapes - recorded at the famous studios of Abbey Road and Britannia Row in London during 1975-1976. The quality of these tapes is superb with the audio being taken from the studio soundboards. The band are working on tracks from the albums "Wish You Were Here" and "Animals". These are early editions of the final product and sound slightly different. If you like Pink Floyd then download these alternate recordings... these are great and thoroughly recommended.

Todays extra download is an early bootleg by David Bowie that he recorded at his flat in Foxgrove Road, Beckenham during April 1969. The filenotes I saw give a better and more detailed history of the tracks... "A fascinating glimpse of the genesis of the Space Oddity album is afforded by a 10-song acoustic demo tape recorded by David and his Feathers partner John “Hutch” Hutchinson, probably in mid-April 1969. In addition to the ‘Space Oddity’ demo, the tape features early versions of ‘Janine’, ‘An Occasional Dream’, ‘Conversation Piece’, ‘Letter To Hermione’ (here called ‘I’m Not Quite’), and ‘Cygnet Committee’ (with very different lyrics and called ‘Lover To The Dawn’). There are also renditions of the Feathers staples ‘When I’m Five’, ‘Ching-a-Ling’, ‘Love Song’ and ‘Life Is A Circus’. Exactly when and where this demo tape was recorded remains difficult to pinpoint. It was almost certainly after Kenneth Pitt’s meeting with Simon Hayes on April 14, and the presence of Hutch means that it can’t have been a great deal later, for he bowed out and returned to Yorkshire the same month. It has been suggested that the demos were recorded on professional equipment at Mercury Records’ headquarters in Knightsbridge, but this seems highly unlikely considering Bowie’s apologies on the tape for the “very bad tape recorder and microphone” and for the noises coming from the piano teacher upstairs; the usual consensus is that the venue was his new flat in Foxgrove Road, Beckenham, where he moved on April 14". If you like early David Bowie, download this piece of history which was recorded locally - even though it was recorded on some dodgy equipment - this has been remastered and now sounds really good for such an old recording...

Todays first download is a set by the legendary Pink Floyd that was recorded at the Madison Square Gardens, New York City on the 2nd July 1977. This is in superb quality and the audio for the show has been taken from the soundboard and it sounds top notch. I've lost count of the amount of shows by Pink Floyd I've posted - loads, but this one is the first soundboard from the tour of 1977 that I've posted - I was under the impression that there were no 77 soundboards, so I was really surprised to see this one.. it sounds great and is the real deal.. Some classic tracks on this one from the DSOTM, WYWH and Animals albums.. a top show. If you like Pink Floyd then grab this one... this is thoroughly recommended...

Todays second download is a request that I received the other day and I thought I'd use it as one of the daily downloads. This is a studio/live album by Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - the bands album "The Best Years Of Our Lives" - remastered and including a live show at the Hammersmith Odeon which was recorded on the 14th April 1975. It also contains some previously unreleased material. Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel were a top band back in the day and his hit "Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me) is a classic - along with Mr Soft, and Judy Teen. If you like Steve Harley then download this album... this is great stuff and a wicked album...

Todays extra download is a set by U2 that was recorded in Sao Paulo, Brazil on the 31st September 1998. This is in superb quality and the audio for the set has been taken from the soundboard and it sounds top notch. I was asked for some live U2 and decided to post this show... I must admit, I really do not like this band... However, just because I don't like them doesn't mean I won't post their stuff - I know a lot of people do like their stuff - so this is for you - it features a lot of their "Hits" like "Pride (In The Name Of Love", "Sunday Bloody Sunday", "Bullet The Blue Sky" and "Where The Streets Have No Name" all being played. If you like U2 then this one is for you.... Here is a download link I found for :- Live in Sao Paolo, Brazil. 31.1.98 - U2 (Bootleg) Quality : Superb Tracklisting : 01.
