Description:

Led Zeppelin ended their career in 1980 with the death of drummer John Bonham, and amidst the anticipation of what was to follow, guitarist Jimmy Page, after several collaborations, formed a new band, The Farm, with former Free~Bad Company vocalist Paul Rodgers. The drummer is Chris Slade, formerly of Uriah Heep, and the bassist is Tony Franklin of Roy Harper's band. The band, named The Firm, started their activities in 1984. After the success of their debut album and a tour of Europe and North America, the band began work on a new album. Their second album, "Mean Business," was released in February 1986 and debuted at No. 22 on the U.S. album chart. On March 14, 1986, the band began a U.S. tour in Tampa, Florida. The May 11 concert in Cleveland, Ohio was recorded for a special FM radio program to promote the album.With the discovery of the sub-master for broadcast, the album has been re-mastered to the best of its ability for this release. The setlist of the day was 12 songs including encores, so this live album is a complete recording of the concert. The live performance, which revolves around the songs from the second album, which has a solid sound due to Jimmy Page's greater involvement in songwriting compared to the previous album, is a great reminder of the band's greatness!
