POST: Ron Wood - A Private View Vol 12 – Don Covay 2nd night at Woody’s On The Beach (reworked audio) - FP 160
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.
Twelfth part:
DON COVAY at Woody’s On The Beach
26th January 1989: DON COVAY. Miami, Florida, Woody’s On The Beach
Line-up: RW (gtr, voc)/Don Covay (voc)/Hilly Michaels (dr)/Bobby Keys (sax)/Harvey Mandel (gtr)/… (sax)/… (bass)/… (gtr)/… (gtr, bvoc)/… (keyb)
Videos of this show have appeared recently. They suggest that it is the show of January 26, 1989 and since they are named '2nd night' there is a strong probability that the show previously posted was that of January 25, 1989. Another argument is the presence of Harvey Mandel who was already present in the group opening the previous show. As usual the recordings were declicked and slightly amplified.
Apart from the first part, there were several times the same recording: I mixed them to give a little more breadth to the sound.
