Another gem from the Sessions at West 54th vaults. Listings say that Tricky was also on this episode but I can’t find video of that. This was Season one with Host Chris Douridas and aired 12/13/97.

Enjoy.

Here’s Liz Phair live for Sessions at West 54th. Sorry, I don’t have a setlist for this one, do you? It was with host David Byrne which means that it was Season 02. This one originally aired 10/11/98. The video intro says that the Lounge Lizards also appeared on this episode but I couldn’t find that video. Please let me know if you come across it.
Oh, and Ronald Vaughan really wants us all to know who uploaded the video. We should thank him.
Enjoy.

I don’t know a thing about this performance. Not a year. Not the setlist.
But, gosh-dang if it ain’t pretty and well worth a half hour of your time. “Seoul” (the first song) is one of my favorite songs and surely the prettiest song featuring song and desk bells you’ve ever heard, right?
