    first video, out of 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ3nKt0poac

    look out for video #5, a can’t-be-improved-upon performance of the song west.

    and this is just the tip of the iceberg, believe me.

    Great videos punchdrunklove.
    But wait, there was a lot more to this ACL PBS taping such as:
    Everything Has Changed
    Rescue
    Are You Alright?
    Fancy Funeral
    People Talkin’
    Are You Down?
    Real Live Bleeding Fingers….
    Marching The Hate Machines

    Perhaps someday we will get a third DVD from ACL on the full two hour concert.
    Here are the details.

    I remember the 30 minute TV show as being great but painfully short. Can’t wait for the DVD.

    yes, this is the televised version, not released in any format, otherwise it wouldn’t have been posted.

    when i saw those videos, a year or so ago, i wondered exactly WHY the program put lucinda and old crow medicine show to share a 50-minute presentation if they could, at least, give this amount of time for each one of them, making two episodes out of two shows. there’s something bouncier about this performance that makes each one of the five songs more meaningful, and while 98’s setlist is terrific and we have 75 minutes of stuff, i’d be hard pressed to favor it over the scrapes of this 2007 performance.

    this version of west is easily, clearly one of the 5 greatest videos we’ve got from LW out there.

    Great stuff, PDL, thanks for posting. I wish the video was a little better quality (doesn’t look so good full screen on my 27″ iMac), but the sound is good, and the performances very good. And, you’re right about “West” – simply beautiful…

    yeah, that was a bit of a lousy file image-wise.

    but the small problem during righteously – at 1’06-07 – is entirely “my” fault. i think i’ll reup it soon. you can’t let that slide!

    next up: lucinda on austin chronicle awards, 1993. 4 songs in a fiery performance (with a guitarrist – not gurf, who’s also there – that beams in a really disturbing way): pineola, something about . . ., and goddamn brilliant performances of hot blood & change the locks. lousy, lousy image, though.

    Very few videos of West seem to be available.
    Here’s a great version from Toronto, ON during her 30th Anniversary tour in October ’09.
    I was at the show and got autographs and a pic with Lu.
