LDB Vintage Series #008
Hi there! After closing both my Master and Special series I took a break from seeding, enjoying life and most of all
preparing for a new series! This is not going to be as frequent as my previous ones, I'll be seeding shows from time
to time so don't expect massive volumes here.
Why a "vintage" series? Because music in the 70's and 80's was really something...so different, so special with "that" kind
of sound which you don't find anymore. That was the era of real music without the internet, of long tours and enjoyable live
shows spanning from metal to new wave, progressive, jazz, fusion, pop. So many bands were born and disappeared during those
two decades.
I am then celebrating the 70's and the 80's and their unmistakeable sound in this LDB Vintage Series. You will find many bands
I have never seeded in the past but that I still enjoy listening to. Most of these come from low generation tapes that were traded
around that period, many radio broadcasts and overall lots of surprises.
Hope you will enjoy this new series!

Another side of the vintage music is folk and country. It was extremely popular at the beginning of the 70's to see folk acts
touring. And that was extremely important because from these, many artists took their own way to develop their style: Jackson
Browne, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor and many more. And The Byrds were so much a source of inspiration for a whole generation
of artists.
The source for this recording is another one from the huge RLR collection. The tape was simply labelled "Boston 22.02.70" and
to be honest I don't know how accurate this is, although you can find on the net that the band played the Boston Tea Party club
on that date.
What is sure is that the recording is a nice soundboard one, and that the band played two sets that night, with different setlists
except for "Jesus Is Just Alright" which was played on both sets due to a request. No mention of the twon or venue during the
recording.
