Stevie Nicks / Westwood One Superstar Concert Series SS 86-22 (Weedsport, Aug 15, 1986)


Stevie Nicks
Superstar Concert Series SS86-22
for broadcast the weekend of September 6, 1986
recorded at the Cayuga County Fair Speedway, Weedsport, New York, August 15, 1986

Here's the TL:DR version of the ridiculously long investigation painfully detailed below:

Someone made a CD cover.  
They mixed up Cayuga with Cayahoga on the artwork. 
Bootleggers copied the files and the incorrect venue is now all over the Internet.

Digitized from the 3 LP syndicated radio show September 2022.  Flac files of wavs.  Includes scans of the cue sheet, all six disc labels, the Billboard ad for the broadcast, a ticket, and backstage passes.

This version is STEREO.



What We Know, and How We Know It
An Essay by You Know Who....

Announcer Steve Downes never mentions a venue on SS86-22.  The same tracks were broadcast as Superstar Concert Series SS87-11 the weekend of June 19-21, 1987.  

A shorter 2-LP set of a Westwood One Pop Concert (PC 87-28) was broadcast the weekend of July 6, 1987.  The EBAY listing said, "....Westwood One vinyl 2-LP radio show hosted by Phil Hendry, features a superb live concert recording from the Cuyahoga Fairgrounds, Weedsport in New York on September 6th 1986, featuring 6 songs including Dreams, Leather & Lace, Rhiannon and more. First broadcast the week of July 6th 1987...."

It's possible the announcers on these rebroadcasts identify the venue as "the Cuyahoga Fairgrounds."  I don't own copies so I can't check.  But it's also possible the vendor looked it up on the Internet.  

The Internet is a cesspool of contradictory "facts," so as our pal Doctor Strange put it, we've got to "Scooby-Doo this crap" to figure out what we should believe.

First of all...the Stevie Nicks Info website lists the shows for the 1986 Rock a Little Tour at https://stevienicks.info/stevie-nicks-tours/1986-rock-a-little-tour/   

That says the Sept. 16, 1986 concert at the Cayuga County Fairgrounds (rescheduled show) was recorded for the Westwood One Superstars Concerts Series. 

Right away we have a problem.  The date of the syndicated broadcast on the Westwood One cue sheet is September 6, 1986...ten days before September 16th.   The show can't take place AFTER the broadcast of the show, why, that would wreck havoc with the Time-Space Continuum!

Okay...so maybe there's a misprint on the cue sheet? 

Well, I went into the Billboard Magazine archives and found a full page print ad from the August 30, 1986 issue confirming the syndicated date as September 6.  The print ad and the cue sheet agree on the broadcast date.  The deadline for artwork for an August 30 publication date had to be at least five days to a week in advance.  That's an educated guess from working on newspapers; if anyone knows the actual deadline, leave a comment.

Over on Ebay, I got lucky.  I found a ticket from the "CCFairgrounds Weedsport, NY" from Aug 15, 1986. That would give them enough time to record, mix, press, and distribute the records.  At the same time....WOW!  From a concert on August 15 to a record at a radio station on September 6 is just three weeks! 

When I look at the other shows on Stevie Nicks Info, I see shows in Saratoga Springs August 12, Toronto August 14, and Middletown August 17.  These cities are within a four hour drive of Weedsport.  A make-up show on Aug 15 would fit right into the calendar while they were close by.  By the end of August, the band was playing in Long Beach, California.  Would they have driven from California to New York to do a single show?  My conclusion is if this is from Weedsport, the date is August 15, 1986, as on the ticket, even though the Stevie Nicks Info website doesn't list the show as even existing.

By the way....Wikipedia also says there was a Sept 16 show in Weedsport. It's likely that one source is just cut n' pasting the information from the other without doing any independent fact checking.

Weedsport is a village in Cayuga County, New York.  It's small; Wiki says less than 2,000 people live there.  But it's got the Weedsport Speedway, which was formerly known as the Cayuga County Fair Speedway, a 3/8 mile oval dirt racetrack located on the Cayuga County Fairgrounds.  And Wiki also says "in the early 1980s the venue started hosting major concerts by some of the biggest bands in rock music... For concerts the track has attracted crowds as large as 12,000."  So that's a likely venue.

But the Internet's not done repeating errors.  There's more.  

Remember that Ebay listing up the thread that says it's from Cuyahoga?  It turns out there's a handful of bootlegs that say this is from Cuyahoga, too.  

So...where did the error come from?  There's a Guitars 101 post from Jan 14, 2013 that says the show is from the "Cuyahoga Fairgrounds."  The very first comment the next day points out, "It's Cayuga County Fairgrounds to whomever made the artwork."   The link is still active, so I downloaded it, and sure enough, the artwork STILL says "Cuyahoga Fairgrounds" in 2022.  And guess what?  The show is in MONO, not stereo.  

If you own any of these bootlegs (actually, "gray market"), can you check to see if they're monophonic, too?  

In 2014, the Iconograph label issued "Beauty And The Beast; Live 1986 Radio Broadcast."  The back cover says the show is "Live FM radio broadcast from Cuyahoga Fairgrounds, Weedsport, New York, USA 15th August 1986."

In 2015, Dol Records pressed up a vinyl bootleg "1986 Live At WWO In Weedsport, NY."  Only eight songs were included.  The back cover of the record says:

"Cuyahoga Fairgrounds
Weedsport, New York
August 15th, 1986
FM Radio Broadcast Westwood Radio One
featuring Peter Frampton on Guitar and back vocals
on "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around""

A review on DISCOGS says, " Another shocking abortion of a release by DOL yet again. Some genius took a perfect Westwood One Stereo soundboard master and collapsed it to MONO to press, creating a hollow narrow sound with instruments missing."

There is also a CD version with the same abbreviated set list with the same wording on the cover released by BRR (Broadcasting Radio Records). This was also issued in 2014. As the CD repeats the short set list rather than the entire Westwood One show, it's likely copied from the DOL Records vinyl.

The Transmission Impossible bootleg (released in 2017 by Eat To The Beat) has the full Westwood One show, and the back cover says "From A Live FM Broadcast Recorded At Cuyahoga Fairgrounds, Weedsport, NY 15th August, 1986"

In 2019 a 3-CD set called "The Broadcast Archives" was issued by The Broadcast Archive label as BSCD6104.  There's no cover up at Discogs but the Amazon description currently (2022) says, "Disc Two includes the extraordinary show Stevie performed at The Cuyahoga Fairgrounds in Weedsport, New York on 15th August 1986."

Well, it SAYS that it includes that "extraordinary show," but an Amazon reviewer says "....disc 2 is identical to disc 1. So the 1986 Cuyahoga set is not in this box."

There is such a place as the Cuyahoga Fairgrounds, but it's 326 miles west of Weedsport, New York, outside of Cleveland....in OHIO.  And the Blossom Music Center (a venue featured in several Westwood One shows) is in Cuyahoga Falls (although not on the Cuyahoga County Fairgrounds, which are 30 miles to the northwest).  And Stevie Nicks DID play at the Blossom Music Center in 1986...but on June 13th.

The name Cuyahoga is from the Mohawk language, while Cayuga is from the Cayuga Nation. Both peoples are member of the Five Nations of the Iroquois with related languages, and while similar sounding, Cayuga isn't Cuyahoga.

There are times when I'm working on a project like this and wonder if it's worthwhile, as the show is already pressed up on silver-cd at a reasonable price.  I just sort of ASSUME it is high quality audio because it is on CD.  At the very least, this is a STEREO version that's gone through my usual declicking process (which mainly involves LISTENING CAREFULLY for surface noise and then zooming in on the offending millisecond...).  

So...what have we learned?  Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.  Or on a CD case!

First of all, I try and give you guys the BEST QUALITY that I can coax out of these old radio discs.  In this case...the vinyl was in great shape EXCEPT for two places on side 4 on "Reaction To Action."  There are short bits of fuzzy noise; something is embedded down in the grooves that resisted cleaning.  I cleaned it up the best I could, but I'm going to take another crack at this one next summer.  Now, the fuzzy bit only lasts for about 6 seconds the first time and 10 seconds the next, and the music is still audible, so don't let this discourage you.  

Flac files of wavs, plus the cue sheet and Affidavit of Performance, which you can fill out and mail to Westwood One at 9540 Washington Boulevard, in Culver City, California.  I took a look on Google Maps, and what was once the throbbing heart of syndicated radio live concert music is now Fifty One Kitchen, an Asian Fusion restaurant. Reading about their "five different kinds of Cantonese BBQ items, Char Siu, Roasted Pork Belly, Roasted Pork Ribs, Roasted Duck and Soy Sauce Chicken Thigh" has made me hungry, so I'm sending out for Chinese...but not from Fifty One, as it would take five hours and twenty-nine minutes to get here.



While I'm waiting for my Moo Goo Gai Pan, let's review what we know about Foreigner on Westwood One.  Pay attention, there may be a pop quiz on Friday.

     Foreigner On Westwood One
     By DRaftervoi

Foreigner first turns up on Westwood One on this very show that you're downloading right now, SS85-12. This concert was recorded live at the Zenith in Paris, France on June 6, 1995, and broadcast a month later on the weekend of July 6, 1995.  In France, they call it "Le Zénith."

Their next appearance was on the 1985 Isle of Dreams 18 LP "fantasy concert" on Labor Day weekend in September 1985, with four songs: 

Reaction To Action
I Want To Know What Love Is
Hot Blooded
Juke Box Hero

While these "fantasy concerts" sometimes used officially released material, these tracks are likely a repeat from this show at "Le Zénith."  It looks like the tracks were repeated on the 1986 Isle of Dreams show, too,  There were Foreigner tracks in 1987, but I don't know the titles.  They do not appear to have been in the 1988 line-up (after which these shows were discontinued).

All of the SS85-12 tracks were repeated again on May 24, 1986 as SS86-07, with different commercials.

On May 14, 1988, Atlantic Records held a 40th Anniversary Concert at Madison Square Garden.  A massive 13 hour show, featuring artists from the labels long history, it was carried by both HBO and satellite broadcast.  During Foreigner's finale of "I Want To Know What Love Is," they were joined onstage by a chorus including David Crosby, Graham Nash, Stephen Stills, Robert Flack, Phil Collins, and Alan Paul and Tim Hauser (Manhattan Transfer)

Four songs from Foreigner's set turn up on 88-28 broadcast on August 5-7, 1988.  This was a compilation show, shared with Yes and Led Zeppelin.  

Hot Blooded
Juke Box Hero
Urgent 
I Wanna Know What Love Is

The same four songs turn up on CO 88-E broadcast on November 11-13, 1988.  This was a second compilation show with Robert Plant, Led Zeppelin, Genesis, and Phil Collins tracks in addition to Foreigner.

89-07 presents a show from Budokan, Tokyo, recorded on September 14, 1989

Feels Like The First Time
Double Vision 
Blue Morning, Blue Day
Long Way From Home
Cold As Ice
Head Games
Say You Will
Waiting For A Girl Like You
That Was Yesterday
Hearts Turn To Stone
I Wanna Know What Love Is
Urgent
Juke Box Hero
Dirty White Boy
Hot Blooded

The same set was repeated again on 89-25 and 92-41....although 92-41 drops one song ("That Was Yesterday") from the broadcast.  92-41 was after Westwood One converted the distribution format to CDs, so in this case, the two earlier LP versions have the extra song.  By the way...I've got that 92-41 CD version around here somewhere, so if I don't post it soon, rattle my cage with a comment, okay?

Now...in between these second and third iterations of the Budokan tracks, there was 91-47. This show was recorded on October 12, 1991 at the Paul Paul Theatre at the Big Fresno Fair, Fresno, CA.  And no, Foreigner fans, you're not suffering from "Double Vision."  Wiki says, "Paul Paul (1894 - 1979) was a prominent Armenian American farmer and politician."  

So...why did they revert back to the 1989 Budokan tracks after broadcasting a more recent 1991 set?  Well, 91-47 was from the Usual Heat Tour featuring replacement vocalist Johnny Edwards after Jones and Gramm had a falling out..  By 1992, Lou Gramm had "worked out his differences" and was back in the band. 

Next up was 95-17 broadcast on April 17, 1995.  Recorded February 24, 1995 At The House Of Blues In Hollywood, California:

Long, Long Way From Home
Double Vision
Head Games
Cold As Ice
Until the End of Time
Rain
Blue Morning, Blue Day
Feels Like The First Time
Urgent
Juke Box Hero
Dirty White Boy
Under the Gun
I Want To Know What Love Is
Hot Blooded

The same set was  repeated on 98-22, 99-20, 00-27, and 01-45.

Two tracks (Head Games, Cold As Ice) were compiled on 95-53, a "Best of 1995" compilation.

04-43 ....okay, this is a weird one.  It combines 1991 Fresno tracks with 1995 House of Blues tracks....so you get both Johnny Edwards AND Lou Gramm on lead vocals. As I don't have a copy, I'm not sure which tracks are from which show.
Long Long Way From Home
Double Vision
Feels Like The First Time
Urgent
Jukebox Hero
Head Games
Cold As Ice
Blue Morning Blue Day
Dirty White Boy
Hot Blooded

This "two lead singers from two different years" show was repeated on 05-45, 06-35. and 08-35, so Westwood One either really liked it...or was running on fumes and just repeating shows as rock radio became a declining format.

The last one I've seen was 11-18 which does NOT repeat the 1991/1995 combo show for a fifth time:
Feels Like The First Time 
Double Vision
Head Games 
Waiting For A Girl Like You 
That Was Yesterday
I Want To Know What Love Is
Urgent
Juke Box Hero
Hot Blooded

That looks VERY similar to the set list from the 1985 Le Zénith show or the 1988 Budokan show, so maybe they went all the way back to the 80s for material. 

At the end of 2011, WW1 went to a download only distribution model, so that's the end of the shows distributed on CD I've seen on Ebay.

Oh...wait...there was one more...besides the Superstar Concert Series, there was a Westwood One In Concert Westwood One 90-36...a show split with Pat Benatar.

Anyway....dinner is here, so enjoy the show....

Formerly Westwood One, now a restaurant.
Note the scooters....

02-31 repeats the set list of 02-05, with sets sourced from Farm Aid shows in 1994, 1997, and 2001.  While host J.J. Jackson says the tracks are sourced from 1997 and 2001, one track (Paper In Fire) is from the 1994 Farm Aid concert.

There are some minor editing variations on a few songs, as compared to other broadcasts.

Love And Happiness (Tinley Park October 4, 1997) is on 98-06, 02-31, and 03-11. 98-06 has a vocal introduction, repeated on 02-31 but in a shorter edit, and 03-11 edits out this part entirely.

R.O.C.K. In The U.S.A. has a short lead guitar introduction on 02-31.  The intro is edited out when the song is repeated on 03-11.

Pink Houses is also on 98-06, 02-31, and 05-07, but only 02-31 has a short spoken "thank you for coming" speech by Mr. Mellencamp.

Authority Song merges into a cover of Bow Wow Wow Wow, a song originally by Was (Not Was) on 1983's Born To Laugh At Tornadoes LP, featuring guest vocals on the track by Mitch Ryder.  That year also saw Mellencamp producing Ryder's Never Kick A Sleeping Dog album. 

Flac files of wavs.  Includes 300 dpi scans of the cue sheets and CD discs.



Today's Rock and Roll Geography Lesson:

The majority of the tracks were recorded at the Verizon Wireless Music Center.  Before that, the venue was named the Deer Creek Music Center.  After that, it becaume the Klipsch Music Center, the Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center, and most recently shortened it to Ruoff Music Center.  We sent in a bid offering them a nearly complete collection of Bazooka Joe gum wrappers to rename it the Voodoo Wagon Music Center, but have not heard back from them yet.
