LDB Vintage Series #030
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!

Ray Manzanek: piano, organ, lead vocals

John Densmore: drums, percussion
Jack Conrad: bass guitar
Bobby Ray Henson: rhythm guitar, percussion, backing vocals
This was the first show of the “Full Circle” tour, the last tour they did before disbanding, which concluded at the
Hollywood Bowl in September that year. Of course they have reunited many times since then, but I guess we should consider
this as the last tour.
Believe it or not, I much prefer this tour and album than the Jim Morrison ones. Here the band was somehow on a creative
peak, mixing rock, blues, a bit of jazz and funk. A great blend of music. Verdillac is such a great listen!
Incredibly there are no shows currently on DIME with the post-Morrison line-up. Hope I have filled the gap. This is a nice
radio broadcast from WGLD in Chicago. Good listen, shortie but goodie. I guess a good companion to the Beat Club footage
from the same year that you can find on youtube.
Enjoy!
