About this deal

In 1977, Journey (band), who had recorded Next (Journey album) at the studio, [15] chose to record their follow-up, Infinity, at His Masters Wheels, with Roy Thomas Baker producing what would be the band's first album with vocalist Steve Perry. At some point in the recording sessions, Baker sprayed everyone in the control room with a fire extinguisher, soaking the Neve mixing console in the process. The resulting fallout between Mazer and Baker led to the band finishing the album at Cherokee Studios. [8] It was recorded in Pacific High Studios, a recording studio in San Francisco, in front of a small audience. That studio was used by the Grateful Dead to record "Workingman's Dead" in 1970, and Morrison used it around this time to record "St. Dominic's Preview." Local radio station KSAN used it to record live shows and play them over the radio, which is how this got bootlegged. So the sound quality is about as good as a live album from 1971 could possibly get.

I said there are three great Van Morrison full concert recordings from 1970 to 1971, and I'm going to post them all here before I start posting my compilations of his best live songs from other shows around that era. Here's the third of those three shows. Sly and the Family Stone recorded their album Life at the studio in 1968, and returned the following year to record its follow-up, Stand!, which would mark the height of the band's artistic and commercial success. [6]Many live recordings have been made over the course of Morrison's career, but none is more celebrated or captures Morrison in better form than the live recording presented here. Recorded before an intimate audience of 200 at Pacific High Recording Studios and broadcast on KSAN radio shortly before the release of the Tupelo Honey album, this performance captures Morrison at a pivotal turning point in his life. He had recently relocated from the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York to the Bay Area. (Right from the start of his solo career, San Francisco embraced Morrison and arguably was the epicenter of his North American following during the early years of his solo career.) In addition to the move, Morrison was now a father; his daughter Shana was born the previous year. On the career front, he had just completed negotiations on a new recording contract, and the saxophone-fueled single, "Wild Night," had just been released, with the soon-to-be-released Tupelo Honey album destined to become the most popular album of his career. a b c d e "Pacific High Recording, Alembic, His Master's Wheels, 60 Brady Street, San Francisco, CA".

Please TRADE FREELY on the lists. The flac files decode to the original set of remastered wav files. For preservation of quality, please share the same way.What may be the most passionate performance of this show comes next, as Morrison delivers a truly riveting take on Bob Dylan's "Just Like a Woman." This is drop-dead gorgeous with Morrison bringing a gut-wrenching intensity to the song. Morrison's spontaneous lyric alterations of "Your long time curse hurts, but what's worse is this queer in here, ain't it clear" and "Please don't let on that you knew me when I was weird and you were weird, too" bring the sexual ambiguity that Dylan only implied right to the surface. He sings this song with such tenderness that it is almost unbearable, and this stands as one of the most stunning performances of his career. Caledonia Soul Music" is a studio outtake. Two versions of this recording are know: the one from the vinyl bootleg "Van the Man" is clearly the same performance as the one that can be found on bootleg CDs that appeared later, except that it's playing slightly slower. The CD version has better sound quality but it sounds speeded up compared to the vinyl, which apprears to be the one in tune. The version you'll find here is taken from the CD, but has been pitch corrected. In 1973, Alembic decided to focus on manufacturing electric guitars and basses, and sold the recording studio to Elliot Mazer. Justin, I’ve been asking and seeking that exact question, Who worked as the engineers and tech support, time keepers etc. di da di da,

This is Van Morrison at the top of his game, delivering a set fueled with unbridled passion. With no trace of the nervousness or anger that occasionally marred his concert performances during this era and with his sense of humor so prominent, it is no wonder that this recording has achieved such legendary status among Morrison's fans and collectors. This provocative performance is often brilliant and is an enthralling listen from beginning to end. The first show was kind of a live version of the "Moondance" album. The second show was notable for having lots of cover versions and other rarities, such as acoustic versions. This show doesn't really stand out in any particular way. It dates from less than a month from the second show (at the Lion's Share in San Anselmo, California), so it's not surprising that the song selection isn't that different. However, the performance is excellent and the sound quality is too, so the show is a must-have because there are so few concert recordings this good from this early in his career. Also, at one hour and 35 minutes it's a long show, 20 minutes longer than the Lion's Share one. Except "Caledonia Soul Music": Silver boot (Hawk 78/79 Disc 2 15-4052) > Easy CD-DA Extractor > FLAC > WAV > remastering and pitch correction > FLAC
