Giuffria: 1985-02-07 Albuquerque, NM (FLAC_AUD Master_1 CD)

Here's a 1980's flashback band.  It's also one you seldom see any live recordings from.  They were pretty much a 'one hit wonder' kind of band, but they did have a great song they were known for.  It was very Journey like in the sound and it was at a time when nobody knew what Journey was doing too.  Heck, they even had a song titled the same as another Journey song named "Line of Fire".

I definitely bought the cassette tape from Guiffria when I heard the song "Call To The Heart" on the radio.  And somewhere, stored with tons of other officially released cassettes, I still have it I'm sure.

This isn't the best or worst of recordings.  It is decent and one of the better Guiffria recordings out of the very few I've found or heard.  I imagine the band was an opening act because it is a pretty short set and they never made it very big either.

One thing that is nice in the file set is there are some photos from the show taken by the taper and sharer "FLashfan".  It's always cool to see shots from a show.  He had asked if anyone would use the images and create some artwork for the show.  So the same still applies because nobody ever did.  Help out if you have the time and capability to make some artwork.  I have both but I don't have the software.  And for some reason, Photoshop 7 (aka 2001 version) doesn't work on Windows 7 either :-)

I hope you enjoy the recording...
