Rik Emmett: 1990-10-26 Cleveland, OH (FLAC_SB/FM_1 CD)

This is an excellent sounding Rik Emmett concert I believe was broadcast live via WMMS FM in 1990.  I had promised to upload this one over a month ago, and my memory failed me until I saw it ready to upload.  And after just a few short things I had to do to finish the project, here it is.  I'm sorry to the person that requested it for the delay.

This is an interesting live recording.  The crowd is very loud and excited in this show.  And unlike most live FM recordings, they can be heard a lot.  It's still an excellent sounding show and performance though.  And unlike the later years of Emmett solo shows where he played a lot of acoustic music and had a boombox with a CD playing other instruments instead of musicians, this is a full band show without prerecorded music being used.

I was looking online at a site from someone who had attended this show and it looks like the very last song, "Magic Power", is not in this broadcasted recording or else the person that recorded the FM broadcast left it out of their share.  Too bad since it is such a great Triumph song.

Anyhow, I'm making a fast upload of this show since I took so long getting it uploaded.  And I'm sorry once again for it taking me this long to get it uploaded.

I hope you enjoy this show...

Rik Emmett: 2000-07-22 Dallas, TX (FLAC_Bootradr Master AUD_2 CD)

Here's a show I recorded on 2000-07-22 of Rik Emmett at Poor David's Pub in Dallas, Texas with my friend digitaljourney.  I tried to get it uploaded before it became 12 years and 1 day ago today, but no such luck this time.  This is uncirculated to the best of my recollection.  I made a copy for digitaljourney, so it might be in circulation somewhere.  But I don't think it is.

NOTE: I created a torrent and posted it on Dime while waiting for FileFactory to correctly upload Part 1 (it did on the 3rd try, 6 hours later).  If your a Dime member, you'll know what to do.  If not, sign up for a free account and READ THE RULES.  Keep your sharing ratio at 0.25% or higher so as to not get banned.  It's a much faster download almost always!  Here's the link...and back to the original blog post now...

I haven't listened to this show in about 11 years. It took my two hours just to find the darn thing. Back in the day (2000), you didn't archive large files on your home PC. You didn't have the storage and the external drives were not exactly big :-) So you burned it to CD, and then you tried to store it in an orderly fashion in CD cases.  And then you deleted it from the PC. Those who have been traders since those days and before will recall trading shows with other collectors by snail mail ONLY because we didn't have anything but dial-up internet at home in those days (at least most of us didn't).

As collections of shows kept growing, many shows were (and are) temporarily lost in the CD cases. I came across a few gems I'd forgotten about in the process of looking for these two CDs.

Oh yea, and I gave Rik Emmett two bootlegs and got him to sign one of mine after the show when we met him.  At the beginning of the show, the announcer mentions Triumph playing years ago in Dallas' Reunion arena.  That just happened to be one of the boots I gave him :-)

And that's the story on this one :-)

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy the show...
