Black Sabbath - Asbury Park 1975 (Black & Blue Month)

Caught an the beginning of the Sabotage tour, around August 1975, this is a King Biscuit Flower Hour sourced concert featuring the full set played at Asbury Park, New Jersey.
This show is regarded by many as probably the best live Black Sabbath recording ever put on tape with Ozzy, that never gets tired of those 'we love you all' shouts, on vocals.
It was released in several ways with titles as Heaven and Earth, Sabotaged, Accidental Overdose.

Blue Oyster Cult - Met Center, Minneapolis 1979 (Black & Blue Month)

A recording from the last day of the first part of B.O.C.'s USA tour supporting Mirrors, an album I would classify as neither very good nor very bad.
It's a clean soundboard with generally good sound except for some unbalanced tracks and Astronomy that has some noise.
To my knowledge the only missing song from the set played appears to be (Don't Fear) The Reaper.
