THAT REMINDS ME OF: Sessions at West 54th.

Taped at Sony Music Studios on, who could’ve ever guess, West 54th Street in New York City, Sessions at West 54th was another avenue to broadcast musical artists doing live sets to the country. Aired from ’97 - ’00 for three seasons, and each season had a different music industry host (with my personal favorite David Byrne for season 2). Most episodes, or I guess sessions, had two artists, though some of the big stars got a full session to themselves. You’d have everything from Willie Nelson to Parliament-Funkadelic to Philip Glass to the Dixie Chicks. Pretty much anything but heavy metal, to my knowledge.

What I found most important about it was that it was produced for public television (PBS) and not gated behind cable or commercial broadcasting channels.
