Scorpions – 1978-04-25 – Nagoya, Japan [SBD]
Scorpions are a German rock band formed in 1965 in Hanover by Rudolf Schenker. Since the band’s inception, it’s musical styles 
have ranged from hard rock to heavy metal. The lineup from 1978–92 was the most successful incarnation of the group, and included Klaus Meine (vocals), Rudolf Schenker (rhythm guitar), Matthias Jabs (lead guitar), Francis Buchholz (bass guitar), and Herman Rarebell (drums). The band’s only constant member has been Schenker, although Meine has been the lead singer for all of the band’s studio albums, and Jabs has been a consistent member since 1978. During the mid-70s, with guitarist Uli Jon Roth part of the line-up, the music of Scorpions was defined as hard rock. After the 
departure of Roth in 1978, Matthias Jabs joined and, the Scorpions changed their sound towards melodic heavy metal, mixed with rock power ballads. That is where we find the Scorpions on this bootleg from the “Taken by Force” tour. This was NOT part of the Tokyo Tapes album, which was recorded on the 24th and 27th of April 1978. This was on the 25th, day two of their Japan dates.
Alice Cooper – 1979-04-09 – San Diego, CA KBFH-FM [FM]
Vincent Damon Furnier, Alice Cooper, started his musical career in 1964 in a band called the Spiders. 
(It was called the Earwigs before they actually learned to play instruments, and instead mimed Beatles songs for a talent show.) The Spiders released their first single in 1965. In 1966, after the band graduated from high school, they released their second single. In 1967, they were starting to travel outside of Arizona, and renamed themselves Nazz. This name was shortlived, and in 1968 when the band discovered that Todd Rundgren‘s band was also named Nazz. So, Alice Cooper was born. Alice Cooper’s first big hit was I’m Eighteen in 1971, followed by an even larger hit in 1972, School’s Out. 
The band quickly reached their peak in 1973 with Billion Dollar Babies. Furnier took the band’s name as his own, legal, name and went solo in 1975. By 1977, alcoholism and drug use had taken its toll, and he put himself into a sanitarium for treatment. This bootleg is for the tour in support of From the Inside and is in San Diego, CA, and was broadcast on the King Biscuit Flower Network.
Delta Moon – 2005-08-27 – Smith’s Old Bar, Atlanta, GA [SBD]
Delta Moon is an American blues rock band from Atlanta, GA, that was formed in 2003 by Tom Gray and 
Mark Johnson when they met at an Atlanta music store. At first, neither gave a thought to the idea of forming a double slide guitar band. Then Mark saw Ry Cooder and David Lindley perform together at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. It was like a light came on over my head, Mark said. I thought, thats what Tom and I do. The two, along with singer Gina Leigh and a rotating cast of drummers and bassists, formed Delta Moon. Their idea was to weave the two slide guitars into one big sound, in the tradition of great two-guitar bands like the Rolling Stones, the Allman Brothers, and the early Fleetwood Mac. This boot is from early in their career, when Gina Leigh was still vocalist, and if you only listen to one concert from this page, I recommend it to be this one. 😉
