Alright, since the Exodus Bonded by Blood 40th anniversary show happened last night, I figured that I would post a couple metal related things this weekend for On This Date in History. Oh, semi-pro tip for folks who bought the Exodus live stream- I noticed that they broadcast Exodus live last night, but if you go to the replay, there is about 15 minutes of Blind Illusion at the very start of the replay. I am screen capping it now (for my own personal use of course), but there is no Death Angel. I wonder why… Anyway, how about that tribute to Paul? Those audio clips of him were classic!

Here is a really interesting one. WRTN was a left of the dial FM station out of New Rochelle NY that existed from 1953-2006. They had an underground metal show on friday night/saturday morning at midnight each week. I am a sucker for these independent underground radio shows. So cool.
Anyway, it sounds like King Diamond actually came in studio with them and sat for an hour-long interview. Lots of Mercyful fate history is discussed. It’s a really fun listen to fans of the king.

This one was either heavily traded or the FM signal was not great because there was a lot of noise on the tape. I use Izotope Rx8’s Spectral Denoise to take the edge off without affecting the sound quality.
