LDB Vintage Series #042
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!

Randy Newman - vocals, piano
I'm gonna have a break from metal and try to see more different stuff as these two decades were so plenty of great music,
spanning from rock to acoustic. When I transferred this show the other day, I was not expecting much but I was dead wrong.
In a glorious radio broadcast from VARA in The Netherlands, we get a splendid solo performance by Randy Newman. Possibly not
complete, but a solid one hour broadcast (in mono, I suspect) with a nice sound and an enjoyable performance.
DJ makes a small comment after track one, then it is straight to the show without any other interruption. Simply how radio
broadcasts should always be...
Enjoy!
