Ok... Hi again folks. For anybody looking at this and saying, who is that?... never mind right now.. you can find out all of that later. If you have an interest at all in Jazz-Rock Fusion music, this is a top-notch prime example. If you can just get through the minute of the opening announcer (lol.. you'll hear what I mean), you will be treated to an absolutely sparkling recording of these guys delivering the goods big time. This is recorded in a small intimate club in Rubigen, Switzerland where a quite respectful crowd is treated to a wonderful performance. And now, you can be also. Don't miss out on this one! Enjoy...

A Digital Bros Soundboard / Audience Protool Matrix Recording
Lineage: (complete as given)
Edirol R09 HA for soundboard
Edirol R09 for audience with Audiotecnica mic
Recorded By Roger
Pro-Tool mixed By Paolo
Remaster note: I found the levels of this recording to be extremely
saturated resulting in clipping off the tops and then, I would think,
Normalized to 0.00 dB output. I backed the whole show down 7 dB just to ease the bite somewhat, hopefully to make the sound just a bit less harsh and in your face. Don't worry... it'll still blow you away.
I repaired the dry cut edit at the end of "Hypertune" with a splice to
smooth it over, adjusted the aural dynamics overall very slightly and
I also eliminated the DC offset throughout the fileset.
Crank it, these guys are awesome live!

AMG Biography by Bradley Torreano
Born in Woodstock, NY, infamous sideman Jim Weider jumped into the music industry as soon as he could. The area was a hotbed for national talent, with acts like Bob Dylan and the Band recording there. He began recording and hiring himself out to songwriters for backup, eventually gathering up enough money to move to Nashville. He joined Johnny Paycheck's touring band, and supported himself through session work and playing local concerts. By the early '80s, Weider moved back to his hometown and began a tour with Robbie Dupress. When 1983 rolled around, he met former Band drummer Levon Helm, who invited him to join his touring band. Helm was very impressed by Weider, so when the Band was ready to reunite in 1985, Weider took Robbie Robertson's spot when Robertson declined the reunion. He continued to perform with the Band as the decade went on, eventually playing with the group at Roger Waters' recreation of The Wall at the Berlin Wall. In 1993, he also played with the group at Bob Dylan's tribute concert in Madison Square Garden and at Bill Clinton's Inaugural Ball. On top of these performances, he also kept himself busy playing on albums by RobbieDupree, Artie Traum, Paul Burlison, Rick Danko, and many others. His membership in the Band actually lasted longer than Robbie Robertson's original tenure, as he stayed with the band throughout the '90s, even performing with them at Woodstock '94. When he had time off from the group, he released several best-selling instructional videos for guitar, and finally released his own solo album with the Honky Tonk Gurus entitled 'Big Foot' in 1999. Followed by 'Remedy' and then with his more Fusion based outing, 'Percalator.' His newest album release from 2009 is 'Pulse.'
