BLACK FLAG - July 23rd, 1982 @ The On Broadway, San Francisco, CA [FM AUDIO]

 Not sure why this BLACK FLAG live set from The On Broadway isn't on Youtube, so I'm correcting that today.  Not sure what the deal is with this, I'm surprised it doesn't have an official release.  I see bootlegs on discogs and ebay though.  Here's to jamming it for free!

So this is a mighty, mighty set.  Perhaps my favorite Black Flag set, the one that if I had a time machine but could only pick one Black Flag show, would be the one.  Chuck Biscuits is on drums and that dude is just such a great drummer, he kills these songs. Rollins is intense, and everybody seems to play great, though I guess the guitar amp does choose to be uncooperative for a moment there.  It's just a friendly reminder that this is indeed live music, and so there will be chaos and catastrophe hand in hand with all the sweat and anger.  Sounds like this was recorded by one of the local stations so the sound is badass, though I did come in with a quick and hot EQ job to boost the thing up a bit more, now it's even badassier.  Be a cool person and play this loud, ideally with your preferred strain of marijuana and some coffee.  That's what I'm doing!   - DH

BLACK FLAG - July 1st, 1982 @ OAP Hall, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [SOUNDBOARD]

A bittersweet post of a BLACK FLAG set from Victoria BC in 1982.  Bittersweet because it's from 1982, and the band was on fire.  The setlist was mighty.  Sadly though, it's a soundboard with a pretty uneven, fluctuating mix at times.  It is nice and clear generally speaking, compared to the sometimes muffled audience tapes of other shows, but sometimes the mix just gets wild for who knows what reasons.  Still, I will play this from time to time because of the intensity of the performance, and that setlist.  Maybe you'll dig it too?   - DH

BLACK FLAG - December 10th, 1982 @ Ukrainian Cultural Center, Hollywood, CA [AUDIENCE]

I'm editing in this text and a fresh rip of this powerhouse set from the mighty BLACK FLAG.  It's not amazing on the sound quality end of things, but it could be worse, and it's worth the listen just for the fact that they pretty much play everything it seems.  It's a 93 minute set, and has to be the longest set I've seen from them by far, especially for this time period.  They must've been feeling it tonight to want to keep on playing this long.  It certainly comes through on the tape, the band seems on fire.  Anyhoo, enjoy this new rip!   - DH
