Now in its second season, the hip weekly PBS series Sessions at West 54th has become television's most reliable source for high-quality live performances by an eclectic array of artists from the pop, blues, country and jazz worlds.
Most of the one-hour Sessions programs present two acts for about 25 minutes each, and fill the remaining time with interviews conducted by the show's host, ex-Talking Heads frontman David Byrne, himself a guest during the first season.
Though most of the Sessions artists are not contractually entitled to post-production input, many become quite involved with the process.

At the time this particular installment of Sessions aired - late 1998 - Finn was touring in support of his outstanding Sony solo debut, Try Whistling This.
Sadly, Neil Finn is shopping his nearly-complete second solo album around to various major labels and indies too, and it may turn out that one can only obtain that second effort from overseas if one happens to be in North America.
Any Finn fans who saw the original broadcast of this episode of Sessions will no doubt feel cheated by the extraction of the interviews.
