Ron Wood: a private view

It seems that Ronnie Wood planned a video documentary called Ron Wood - A
Private View in 1982, which has never been aired (or even completed). Many parts of the
source videos, mostly shot by Mark Pines, appeared on archive.org quite recently, among
them also many live videos shot at Woody’s On The Beach in 1988, RW’s short-lived night
club in Miami. Most of the circulating videos are very compressed, so it was the idea to get
these in best quality. It took endless hours to download mega-files with 10 -70 GB per film.
and to separate uncompressed audio. These files were partly in mono, partly silent but mostly
in better quality than all we had of this before. For this series, only the musical content was of
interest.
Thanks to my two accomplices for their help, advice and inspiration.

Sixth part:
DON COVAY at Woody’s On The Beach

19th December 1988: DON COVAY. Miami, Florida, Woody’s On The Beach
Line-up: RW (gtr, voc)/Don Covay (voc)/& others

The idea for this volume was to compile the musical content from several videos: my videographer partner helped me a lot in carrying out this first work. Then I reworked its compilation. Doing a test mix with an older version of the Woody's On The Beach series (Volume 11), I found that the recordings complemented each other very well giving a stereo effect and separating the instruments. Unfortunately, this old recording was incomplete. We therefore present to you here the result of this compilation.
All the recordings were declicked, amplified, slightly phase adjusted and some mic defaults corrected or attenuated.
For the merges I worked with short segments (30 seconds) and synchronized them using the new videos sources as reference.
