LDB Special Series #214

Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the
musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my
cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed!
I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my
reward for all the work involved in this project.

DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's is the right way to make me stop sharing
music here.

This one brings me back in the mid 90's when I used to be a big Jadis fan. This little-known (outside the prog circuit,
of course...) progressive band released some of the finest albums in that period and to my view they reached their absolute peak
with their second, called 'Across The Water'. This full show, as part of a prog festival in Holland, was in the middle of
their european tour supporting that album. Joined by Martin and John from IQ, the quartet was great in playing a mainstream
progressive, with Gary creating nice melodies with his guitar. And those guys were great fun as well outside the stage! I
even organised a gig for them in 1996 and had them in my apartment as guests!

For those who are in the likes of the Genesis / Hackett era, Jadis are a must. Support the band by buying all their albums

We are not very far from the very end of my series. I am planning to close everything on release #500, which means that both
Master and Special Series will both end on #250. So from now I will take requests. If there is something special you would
like to appear drop me a PM and I will try to fulfill your wish. By know you should be familiar with the kind of music I am
listening, so it's to you now...

As always, enjoy!
