In the meantime, just scroll down to the link bar that you will find below the studio shot of Meade Lux Lewis. I just tried it and it works.Chris Albertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12056345320709233401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398250808488627384.post-8072637168948464702012-06-15T16:24:19.375-04:002012-06-15T16:24:19.375-04:00"Here is one of the piano selections..."..."Here is one of the piano selections..." you say.

The whole program lasted an hour and is available on an 80-minute VHS tape (check Amazon) that includes some fillers. I should point out that this was originally taped in color, at a time when the technology was new and did not allow editing, This means that the hour was done in real time, with one untaped run-through, so—these being elderly artists—the more spirited performances occurred prior to taping. It was impossible to preserve the color tape, for some reason, so all that is left is a Kinescope in b&w, which is what the VHS contains. When the taping was over, some of us boarded a bus for Webster Hall where the Verve album that bears the same name was made in the middle of the night. If you read what blurbist Scott Yanow wrote about this album on AllMusic and elsewhere, be warned that it contains the usual supposition-based Yanow nonsense. —ChrisChris Albertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12056345320709233401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398250808488627384.post-60891472432718373922012-06-14T04:55:05.819-04:002012-06-14T04:55:05.819-04:00Chris, the TV show you mentioned is this?
