Title: Jim James @ Newport Folk Festival
Post by: Wardog on Jan 28, 2009, 10:42 AM
Does ANYONE have these recordings?  They were originally put up on this website,
http://www.aquariumdrunkard.com/2008/08/05/jim-james-acoustic-newport-folk-festival-8208/
but, the links don't work.  I've looked on archive and searched these boards...any help would be appreciated, it looks like it was an amazing set.

Pretty sure it is still a free iTunes podcast.  Go to iTunes > Podcasts > Power Search > "All Songs Considered"

Should be an option for NPR All Songs Considered Live Podcasts, and it should be near the top.  Other good stuff on there too, for instance a Radiohead soundboard from last year I was listening to this morning.  Only downside is the tracks aren't divided.

i found "All Songs Considered" but only one thing about the Newport Folk Festival and nothing about Jim James...do you know the date?

Can't get to iTunes from here at work, but try this, I may have led you a bit astray.

Go back to the podcast power search, then only type in "NPR"  
That should bring up a dozen podcasts, one of which is All Songs Considered Live Podcast or maybe just NPR Live Podcasts.  There is a chance it has been taken down, but they rarely do that unless it has been up forever, and that show was only a few months ago.

Excellent, and no prob.  Hope you enjoy it but know you will, that show is fantastic and has great sound.  Jim was particularly funny that day too.

I was at the Newport Show (front and center) and it was really magical.  I have great pix (that I would be happy to share) as well as a downloaded copy of the show (via NPR) with perfect soundboard quality (which I would also be happy to share with those in need who can't get a good copy on line).

This was a great great performance and Jim was in a great mood.  Also played with She & him and the next day did Going to Acapulco with Caleixico.  The only better musical experience I had in 2008 was MMJ at MSG on NYE!

I'm on NPR all songs considered and can't find anything to do with Jim James. What's the title of the podcast?

Oops! Nevermind! I wasn't on the live all songs considered. Didn't know they were separate!
