This is the only three-artist Captured Live show, and it's a bit of a missed programming opportunity. The first thing that jumps out is two solid American bands fronted by a woman singing...and then Australia's INXS.  There's nothing wrong with the line-up, but it seems like a missed opportunity to me. If the RKO Radio Networks had picked... say... Berlin...  we'd have three American bands fronted by women singers, providing a theme for the show.  As it is, INXS looks like the odd man out.

There wasn't much I could find about venues or dates...there's no venue mentioned for Quarterflash or INXS (other than "America" on the INXS show).  Perkin's Palace in Pasadena is the location for Scandal.  However... searching for "scandal" in the newspaper.com database produces more results than I can sort through.  

On the Scandal show, two songs ("I Second That Emotion" and "Child of the Night") were unreleased at the time.  They appear to be released now, but still on unofficial recordings.


When I worked at the newspaper, there was a running joke about yelling "Stop the presses!" like they used to do on television shows.  You never want to stop the printing press, it takes hours to set up.   This was uncovered SECONDS before I posted, so STOP THE PRESSES!  Up there in the right-hand corner, (no, your other right hand...) I found a print ad for the show!

And then in pointless investigation, I had a mailing label for the production company, P.G. Productions, of 7200 Vineland Way in Sun Valley, California.  Here's what it looks like today:

This appears to be a repeat of NBC 82-31 Quarterflash Concert originally broadcast earlier in the year on August 21-22-23, 1982.  In 1982 the Source was broadcast weekly, over three day broadcast windows, but added a "Christmas Countdown" extravaganza with additional shows.  Fourteen shows were broadcast in December 1982.

I was able to confirm the recording date of the show through newspapers.com. I found a review of the concert from the Memphis Press Scimitar which mentions the "overpowering amplifiers, the Orpheum's tight confines, and a receptive but rowdy crowd made it difficult to fully appreciate the band's softer passages."  Whatever problems they had with the house sound system, it's not apparent on this recording.  It sounds fine, so if you like Quarterflash, give it a listen.


Fool Who Doesn't Know, Party Down, So Who's Lonely appear to be unreleased songs, but I'm no expert on Quarterflash.  If I've got it wrong, please leave a comment and I'll correct my error.

Quarterflash played three unreleased songs.
The Bakersfield newspaper was not available.  The newspaper ad and review in the Artwork file are from the show in Fresno.  Hagar and Quarterflash played Fresno's Selland Arena Thursday March 25, 1982. Fresno is about 110 miles north of Bakersfield.  While they're not from the same show, the ad and review are probably similar to those that appeared in Bakersfield.
