I debated posting this one since we already posted James R Edmonds’ soundboard recording of this show, but that one had some tape damage… so here is Wayne’s audience recording for you AA completists. Hopefully one day we can check to see if combining the recordings makes sense, but ain’t got time for that now.

Our friend James R Edmonds sent over another envelope of cassettes last week, including a couple more soundboard recordings of bands from this show. Thanks James!
The mix on this one is pretty heavy on guitar, so I did my best to bring everything else up in the mix with Izotope. I’m pretty happy with it now- give it a few minutes for the mix to settle in. The other band (posting later this week) was a big challenge. More on that later.

Rebalance in Izotope RX8: Vocal +2, Bass +10, Drums +1.
Late post today but it is a good one. This is from James R Edmonds’ master tape. The raw mix started out pretty good, but then guitar overpowered the mix- it was all you could hear. I did everything I could to bring up bass, vocals and drums in Izotope and it sounds pretty decent. This is peak D.R.I. — that 85-86 time frame was untouchable.

Rebalance in Izotope Rx8: Vocal +9, Bass and Drum +10, guitar -1. Yeah, it was that extreme.
Here’s an early one for you today. The tape had the date as 4/13/87 and I could not find anything about this show (w/Agression) on that date. I then referenced James’ list and the actual date seems to be 10/11/86, and confirmed that this is one of James’ master tapes. There is a flyer for a show w/Agression for that date, so I am running with it.
Drums were a little light in the mix, so I bumped them up slightly in Izotope.

Since you got video yesterday, it’s audio today. Here’s another one from James R Edmonds’ last shipment of tapes- his tape of Agression from the Farm, taped by him off the soundboard. That’s what “master” means if anyone was unclear. “Master”=the original tape. “1st gen”=1 copy off the master. etc. OK, class is over.
The original mix is lacking in guitars, so I bumped them up a bit in Izotope Rx8. Hmm, maybe I should have brought that snare up a bit. Still sounds good.

I am in the middle to transferring some Attitude Adjustment cassettes for Eric Mcintire and I just realized that this is their opening set from the infamous, garbage can throwing Discharge show. It doesn’t sound too bad either.

I know it is pretty early for a post but I can’t wait to send this one out, because we all got an amazing surprise yesterday- you just may not know it yet. Rick Strahl (bass player for Attitude Adjustment/Condemned Attitude/Attitude etc) released his project called Anti-Trust for sale yesterday (go to https://anti-trust.rocks/ to stream and/or buy the album). This is his music project with songs he has written over the years (he is a software programmer nowadays). It is KILLER, and it features Chris Kontos on drums and Andy Andersen from Attitude Adjustment/etc on vocals for a couple songs. Check the link in comments for where to buy.
As I mentioned the other day, I started to look through my older videos because I noticed that there were a few that I had not posted yet. I am halfway through numbers and “A” on one of my lists, there are a ton to do. To celebrate Rick’s project seeing the light of day, here is a really great old video of Attitude Adjustment, opening for the shitty metal version of Discharge at the Farm. House camera, soundboard audio. Hmmm… I wonder if video exists of Discharge getting garbage cans thrown at them. Who has all of these Farm tapes anyway?

This tape comes from Wayne Vanderkuil’s archive, and was mixed/taped by Radley Hirsch. Radley gave Wayne a copy- thanks Radley! This is the original mix- I didn’t do a thing to it. The mix gets pretty good as the show progresses.
I know there was a multicamera video of CCM from this show- I wonder if there is a BGK one as well.

Yet another one from the Vanderkuil treasure trove today. Thanks to Radley Hirsch for mixing, recording, and sharing with Wayne (and us).
This one starts out with a LONG, entertaining monologue from Dave. Music starts at 6 minutes in, and the mix gets good at about 10min. Short set- 25min including the 6min of no music.

Rebalance in Izotope Rx8: +5 on guitars
I had these tapes from James R Edmonds since about the beginning of the year and lost contact with him. We reconnected recently so that got me in gear to take these transfers I did months ago and prep the for post. Thanks James!
The mix was light on drums and guitar, heavy on bass and vocals. I did as much as I could in Izotope without making it sound too weird. It looks like I forgot to trim the tape, so you get some other stuff mixed in at about the 45min mark, but then the rest of the set happens after. Odd
