Wes:
Here’s 3 of the shows you guys asked for. I’ll keep them up on dropbox for a week, then add the other 2 you were asking for.

Thank you so much….I can finally remove these from my download que on uTorrent.

I have been trying to get these shows from JTT, for about a year now. You rock dude!!

Wes: LOL……this morning I woke up and was thankful I’m not a Penn State fan.

Wasn’t there a bet one year and your avatar was changed?

I saw them remove the statute on the news, they wrapped it up and carted it away. They should have done a Saddam and toppled it….

For something different, but very cool, this week’s offering is a DVD of Eddie at NAMM in 1996:

mcs5150: Here is something slightly different:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/h9h74dazl2c7a30/FRCasWoSJ8Alan Holdsworth Eddie Van Halen MI, Hollywood 1982 AUDMusician’s Institute, Hollywood, CA.I’m getting rid of my old cassettes, and I found something pretty unique that may interest a few fans of both guitarists, even if only for historic value, so here it is!I can’t remember the exact date for this recording. Alan Holdsworth was invited to do a clinic at the Musician’s Institute, and Eddie Van Halen joined in for the two last songs.Alan did talk and answered questions from the crowd, but I didn’t record this part of the event.I made the recording, so what you get is a direct copy of the master cassette (that has never been shared or even been played since then).This is an audience recording, made with good portable equipment for the time, and I think the quality is nice (check the sample).There’s a blank at 6:30 into track 2 because of a tape flip. I also noticed two glitches somewhere else on the tape, but I can’t find them right now.At the time, Jeff Berlin was teaching at the Musician’s Institute. He may be the bass player here, but I can’t remember for sure, as I didn’t write anything on the tape. I’m not sure it’s his tone here, but then who else?Also, as I was a little short on tape or batteries (or both), I didn’t record any of the talking and introductions. Some off the applause wher abruptly cut, so I just added a little fade-out, but you basically get what’s on the tape.This short concert happened around the time the Road Games album was recorded.About the songs, to me the whole thing sounds like an improvised jam, but please help if you know any of the song’s titles.Track 1Track 2Track 3 Drumset SoloTrack 4Track 5Track 6TT: 47:15Line-UpAlan Holdsworth – El.

Due to my Dropbox being used for something else there will be no audio for a few weeks. I will resume uploading VH audio shows at the end of August.

jroundy: Sorry.

Actually, it is mostly for other reasons why I will not be uploading audio shows for 1 month.

A new show will be added tomorrow.

Nice!!
