wow!...how did you get the whole show?  :D i was only able to hear from What A Wondeful Man until the end because of their power outage.

Thanks Abe! Did you tape this?

[JPV]

perfect sound Abe!!

[Honest Abe]

Thanks for the compliments guys.  I recorded the stream on NPR sometime last night.  I can take absolutely no credit for how wonderful it sounds.  Maybe it wasn't just me, but doesn't it sound incredibly clear and amazing.  I don't get jealous of much, but I would of stood in the pouring rain to have witnessed Jim's performance yesterday.

I've been downloading other people's recording for the past few years now and I wanted to return the favor, I'm really glad people are enjoying it.  Take care everyone.

Edit: I see you posted the She & Him in another thread. Thanks again Abe!!! :)

has anyone posted the other jim james set on the npr site?

Do you mean the St. David's Church set from Austin?  If so yes.  I would have to do some digging to find it.

I found the link.  Here is the stream captured in mp3 format.  Let me know if it doesn't work because I know Kory did a stream capture as well.   The Librarian/Smokin From Shootin combo is spectacular.

still works..downloading now. THANK YOU THANK YOU.. let me know what i can up for you. you rock.

[BH]

No problem.  I just tracked down the link.  Someone else did all the hardwork, tracking and uploading.  

This one is a keeper.  I just wish I could get the M. Ward part in the same high quality, although the audience recording is not too bad.

[acoustictube]

thanks again for the st. davids gig. sounds great!!!

that show was under a tent, so assuming you waited for a while - you were all set (and dry).  but there were lots of people getting *drenched* by a driving, heavy rain watching this...

Download WinRar. A .rar file is basically the same as a .zip file, just a different name is all.
