Ultimate Rhoads

(shameless plug) Hello world,

http://rhoadsboots.wordpress.com/ is here. I hope to be restoring all of the out of print Randy vinyl with your help. And also restoring and remastering all the boots as well. I've posted the first show, London 81 as a start. I'm working on Milwaukee 82 as we speak.

Visit the blog for updates.

Thanks

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up.

friggen sweet man! got back to the Milwaukee show also!
i see you mentioned LC...are you working with lambchops, who did flying live again?

Thank you for sharing... the London '81 show is one of my "fav"

Lambchops has been gracious enough to lend me his ears. A second opinion never hurts.

london sounded great man! gotta love those high-pass and low-pass filters, thats what i used on the Albuquerque revelation remaster i did, also good for cutting out noise for tabbing, can get really annoying sounding if done too much, like i do when i tab boots lol.
how far are you into milwaukee? i remember you lost the files a while back when you were first working on it.

Can't wait to check it out

I've heard that Milwaukee is often referred to as Randy's best gig ever with Ozzy...

Are you talking about Milwaukee 1/22/82?

Yes. I heard that particular Milwaukee gig was amazing.

Ok thanks have that one, and did not think the audio was very good. I will listen again.

the guy who recorded posted his original tape he made converted to lossless digital a while back. its at dimeadozen.org
the sound quality is right up there with the radio broadcasts

The one bummer about that recording is that the high end kept cutting out at that concert. In the recording it sounds like he's putting his recording device down below his seat or something from time to time. But that wasn't it, it was the PA at the venue that kept cutting out.

yup the tweeter on the left side

I'm working on matching the eq between the blown tweeter sections and the regular ones. Tedious, but it's coming along.
