This one is different from the other episodes I've found so far. Those others are the episodes broadcast on T.V. This one consisted of three hours of raw footage that was later edited down to an hour or so for the final broadcast. I haven't been able to find the final version, actually. That means there are no interview segments between songs, which must have been recorded at a different time. But instead, one gets the actual banter of them talking to each other. Also, there's well over an hour over music here. I don't know what made the final version, but I presume there are some extra songs that didn't make it into the show. Two songs at the end are second versions of songs performed earlier. But that still means an hour and 10 minutes of music, after one takes out all the banter and the two second takes.
It's nice to have not just two or three music stars performing together, but four. I think the glue between them mainly was Rodney Crowell. At the time, he was married to Rosanne Cash, so that was an obvious link. (They stayed married from 1979 to 1992.) Also, both he and Albert Lee were members of Emmylou Harris's band in the 1970s. Furthermore, Harris and Cash covered songs written by Crowell. But no doubt all four of these people had crossed paths many times prior to this session.
In this recording, they performed in various combinations. In the song list below, I generally only mentioned the lead vocalist or vocalists, and sometimes also mentioning prominent backing vocalists. But they collaborated more than that. For instance, most of the guitar solos were played by either Albert Lee or Rodney Crowell, although the video shows there was another unnamed lead guitarist in the backing band that also took the occasional solo. And I didn't credit all the backing vocals, especially when most of them sang together.
I cut out of heck of a lot of dead air. Just consider that this was cut by about an hour total. In the beginning especially, there were long stretches of dead air between songs. But by the end, there was a lot more chatter, as it seemed everyone got more relaxed and friendly with each other. I tried to keep the vast majority of that, though I cut out some boring bits. One song, "Old Pipeliner," has "[Edit]" in the title. That's because the YouTube video I took this from was split in two, and the split was right in the middle of that song. But there was a little bit of overlap, so I was able to splice that together without any loss of music.
By the way, I converted that YouTube video to audio, and chopped it into mp3s. As I did so, I had to figure out the song titles. I think I got them all right, but if I made mistakes, please let me know.
This album is an hour and 28 minutes long.

Making the cover of this album was tough, because I wanted to get all four of the main performers in the image, and they typically were spread out in the studio. I found one point where the four of them were all singing, and the camera panned across them. So I took multiple screenshots. Then I used Photoshop to squeeze them together. Their faces also were blurry because the video was low-res. So I took additional screenshots of just their heads, and pasted those in, for better clarity in those areas.
