This is the first time I've seen a link to that WHOLE concert. There have been single clips floating around for years. I love the behind-the-scenes with Lyle smoking cigarettes... what?!

I can maybe shed some info on this, because I was in contact with Dave a lot around this time. I remember him telling me about it, and also a bunch of those tunes of his, but details are slightly fuzzy now. Definitely a one-off gig. I think it was an invitation to do the German TV show from Sagmeister. I know Dave really wanted to do something with Lyle (of course!), and since he and Rodby were old friends from Chicago, maybe Steve hooked that up. I don't think Dave had ever played with Will Kennedy, a brilliant choice to round out this band. That connection may have been through our friend Bob Gatzen, or else I know that Dave knew Russ Ferrante... Anyway, this is one of my favorite things he ever did, and I look forward to watching this all the way through now!
