Ry Cooder - PBS Soundstage, WTTW Studios, Chicago, IL, 11-16-1978

Here's another episode of the "PBS Soundstage" TV show, from 1978. This one stars guitarist Ry Cooder.

Around the time of this concert, in June 1978, Cooder released the studio album "Jazz." (I don't know if the date in the title is the date of the concert or of the TV broadcast.) The sound of the album harkened back to early jazz, from about 1900 to 1930. A few of the songs are from that album: "Big Bad Bill Is Sweet William Now," "The Dream," In a Mist," " Davenport Blues," "Shine," and "Nobody," and basically the whole album has that early jazz sound.

The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is very good. There were a few problems though. One problem was that the cheering at the ends of some songs came to abrupt ends. So I did a little copying and pasting to allow for a few more seconds until the audience went silent. Also, there's some hiss. I got rid of most of that for the banter tracks, using noise reduction. But I have a rule against using noise reduction on actual songs, so I let the hiss be in those cases. It's not much hiss though. 

This album is 41 minutes long.
