Odetta, "Salzburger Jazzherbst", Salzburg, A, Nov 1, 2002
Landestheater, Salzburg, Austria
Odetta Holmes, (December 31, 1930 – December 2, 2008), vocals
Charles Giordano, piano
I received this from a fellow Hungercitizen (thanks a lot! You know who you are...) - I was duly forewarned by him that this broadcast "features"
an especially "talented" (i. e. inept) German language (Austrian) announcer/commentator who commented each and every track in his inimitable
pseudo-learned way (treating us to his "wisdom" and managing to mispronounce just about every other English he used).
For this reason, I torrent this in two formats,
an unedited version (mostly for German-speaking card-holding and practising bona-fide masochists)
and an edited version (music only) for connoisseurs of Odetta's voice and music.
I retracked everything in CDWave and applied some fades on the tracks of the edited version in Sony Soundforge 8.0.
The quality of the recording and Odetta's performance are near excellent.
With bittorrent clients who allow selective downloading, you can chose which version to download.
