Was fortunate to catch this tour and Francine. Lyle’s lyrical mastery of comedy, intellect, sarcasm, melancholy and sadness run the gamut like no other. His group and his own performances have always been Top Shelf.
When life rolls back to something 'normal', do yourself a BIG solid and head to Atlanta, to see her live. She will lay you right out like a religious experience.
Hello thanks for watching and commenting on my RU-vid channel ... Hope you don’t stop with your love and support ... Have you been to my concert before ??
Francice is so great in this that the band loves what she's doin'! Check the band out and see how much they appreciate her singing starting at 3:39. They smiling and looking at her! Great stuff.
Lyle is my favorite. First saw him during this tour in a high school theater. Seen him around 8 times since. Always a great show. Between songs is just as entertaining!
That's great... Thanks I have come a long way to this great point and right from the very beginning you my fan have been solidly there for me , it's been a landslide but we pull through together ... your love and support are amazing and I appreciate every little effort .. always believe in yourself to achieve your goals ... Have you been to my concert before ?
Whenever I don't know what to listen to and don't want classical, I gravitate towards Lyle, who always picks the right accompanying musicians/vocalists. Never seen him live, but waiting for him to come to my area, hopefully with his Large Band. His songs always seem to match my mood.
Just saw him this week in Napa. If you can - see him. His shows are phenomonal. No auto tuning on his recordings - he's even better live. His acoustical shows are also worth seeing.
She was great, never heard her sing before. He is amazing!! I love all his songs and other people's songs when he sings them. He is not ugly, he's hot!!
I've seen Lyle Lovett a few times over the years and he always always put on a FANTASTIC show. The first time I saw him was at Mesa Amphitheater in Mesa, AZ. It was Lyle's birthday...so his wife....Julia Roberts...came out onstage and had the crowd sing him Happy Birthday! And watching this video I was blown away by how well the Tonight Show Band played for him. A year or two before this was recorded I had the honor of roadying for The Big Band Machine featuring Ed Shaungesey...so I got to set up the drums each night on tour for Ed. I have to say he was one of the nicest people I have ever met in the music business. Was sorry to see he passed on in 2013. :-(

What a beautiful voice and person, was fortunate to see the group the first of many times and incarnations in Memphis around this time. Leo Kottke opened and my newlywed wife said " this guy reminds of Leo K " about the time he was finished playing . Hey, we had other things on our mind while on our short stay ! What a show.

I'm not sure why I checked out Lyle Lovett, but "Here I Am" was the first song I heard on the album. I was blown away - certainly wasn't mainstream. One other comment. For those that don't know, The Tonight Show Band was like a group of masters. In these shots, they sort of look like jurors holding court. I believe Francine & Lyle were found guilty. Of being HOT! Great upload.

@@lyleloveth3130 Indeed, I have been to your concerts - I went to as many as I could when I lived in Cincinnati.. loved each one (especially at the zoo in 1993!) Now that I live near Tupelo, MS, I have been so grateful for your livestreams - I've attended all 12 & look forward to next week's! Not only are you a terrific singer/song writer, but you are an awesome human being!! God bless you, Lyle.. be well & happy!!
@Francine Reed is incredible! She will be performing her first-ever "livestream" tomorrow evening (9/22) at 5 pm (MST). Check it out: nicolepesce.com/francine-reed-s-desert-stream-concert

Awesome - missed them in real time, back in the day. Glad for this video to remedy that - thanks! Also - no brass in the arrangements? "Here I Am" in particular??!? They were great, but seems odd they were left on the bench.
@@mikeuher3755 - well ... two ways: 1. I simply do not hear a single instrument from the brass family playing; and, 2. Through ALL of the portions of the video of "Here I Am" where you can see a brass player - his instrument is at least 2 feet away from his face. Thus, I concluded that there was NO brass playing on that tune during this particular performance. Plenty of woodwinds, strings, and percussion - but zero brass.

watch as two seasoned musicians in the band are impressed by reed's fine skatting at 5:55 now listen as there's an issue with timing as they go back into the lyrics at 6:43. the band was 'sposed to be waiting for the pick-up lyric "she'ssss," as the indicator, but they were a little late coming in with lyle on beat- the lyric being "hot". lyle should have been able to hold "she'ssssss" for as long as he wanted before saying the next word and the band should have known and been waiting, so my guess is that lyle WAS 'sposed to hold that lyric longer but didn't, bc there's no way all those seasoned vetrans all fell asleep. : ) and, i'm not pointing that last part out to be a dick- it's just an observation. : )
I noticed it too. The fact that they played it off, recovered and finished the song is a testament to their musicianship. 99% of people probably didnt catch it.
Oh, from what I hear from these thumbs-downers, when they leave comments, is that they're scornful of the fact that I wasn't recording in HD 30 years ago instead of VHS....they're usually just fussing over the picture and sound quality.
Terrence Fletcher would’ve had a drink with Lyle and Francine afterwards. He would’ve thrown 2 cymbals at Louie Belson. The tempo was rushed and the fill was never right once coming out of the spoken verses.
No wonder Julie Robert’s divorced him in a few months. If I was setting next to him on an airplane I’d pretend to be asleep. HE LOOKS CRAZY! Hahahaha and he just admitted it.z
