KISS.FM NY....... R.I.P.

               
                              In Remembrance of the {recently defunct} Radio Station
                              that filled the New York airwaves for over thirty years
                              with Funk, R&B & Slow-Jams,
                              I transfered one of my sister's very ooooold cassettes,
                              containing a vintage KISS.FM radio braodcast
                              from it's very early days....

                                 Note: due to the nature of the find,
                                          sound quality is 2nd rate {to say the least..}
                               {oxidation, hiss, abrupt stops, warts and all!}


                                                 KISS.FM {WRKS.FM} New York
                                                     June 1981 - April 2012

Kevin Eubanks - Sundance (1984)

              
                                        This is not the American GRP release.
           
             This is the (rare-er) Holland release on the 'Keytone' label, {Keytone KYT 729}
             which gives you the unedited version of "The Sundance Began",
             and replaces "It's All the Same to Me" (on the GRP release), with "S.N.A.F.U."

Chick Corea Quartet - Live In New York, 1974 (1976)

                                           
                                                Rare, mid 70's Italian pressing.
                
                                          Contrary to what it says on the cover,
                                          both of these cuts are not from 1974,...
                                          nor were they recorded in New York...
                                          With a little research,
                                          i found that these {below} are the correct dates,
                                          and groups (+info) that Chick was with
                                          at the time of these recordings:

1. Return To Forever –  Some Time Ago  (C.Corea)

Bass – Stanley Clarke
Electric Piano – Chick Corea
Percussion, Vocals – Airto Moreira, Bill Tragesser
