Hello,
I am sorry. I know this topic is posted somewhere but the search does not seem to like me.
I am wondering if anyone knows how many copies of the Black Sessions were produced?
Where was it recorded?
And finally, how did they mimimalize the crowd noise in the foreground on the recording?

Q: What are THE KITCHEN TAPES and what are they doing with THE BLACK SESSIONS?
A: Here are the liner notes from my copy--it's the UK release and titled "Frank Black: The Black Sessions Live In Paris plus The Kitchen Tapes:"
"Fall 1995, Los Angeles
This is a recording of a national French radio show called Les Black Sessions presented by Bernard Lenoir. The shows go out live from an extremely air conditioned Paris soundstage. This performance was during a week long run we did in a club called L'Arapahoe, and includes the touring line-up of Californians Eric Drew Feldman, Nick Vincent, and Lyle Workman. For trivia's sake I should mention that the CD release contains the entire performance as it was heard by the studio audience but not the broadcast's audience, who heard about five songs less because of the length of the radio show. Beside the music you can hear some horrible French being spoken by me, a dedication to the night clerk at our hotel, who made a heck of a Kir Royale.
Brian Guthrie at Anoise Annoys had wanted me to include something special for the U.K. release, and I suggested a boot-leg quality extra track or two. My good friend Joey Santiago came by for a cigar and a little jam in my kitchen and we recorded a song called Jumping Beans, about Mexican jumping beans, and a time travelling tale called Modern Age.
Frank Black"
So there you have it--a little something extra for the fans.

| Is it still available? I'd love to hear the Santiago version of 'Jumping Beans'. I still think the best version of that song is Frank playing it solo on some radio show. A real classic. |

This picture is absolutely stunning.
The fact that it was apparently taken at the Rock en Seine festival (that I witnessed) makes it even better.
