This is the companion to the album of the same name. While they share the same name, however, they are somewhat different. For one, the CD contains several songs that aren't on the video. Also, the video has two songs that aren't on the CD (songs 10 and 11). In addition to that, the recordings on the video aren't necessarily the same recordings as the ones on the CD -- if you listen carefully, you'll notice that some of the spoken intros to the songs are slightly different. This video is now available on DVD! The DVD is actually titled One Fair Summer Evening... Plus. The best news about the DVD is that the audio has been remixed for 5.1 sound. It's not all that significant a difference on the concert video, but for the five music videos, it is a real treat to hear these songs presented in a true surround mix. The concert was also issued on VHS and LaserDisc, and used copies of the VHS can usually be found at Amazon.com. Buy the VHS: Buy the DVD: |

This is the video which accompanies the CD of the same title. This was the first Nanci-related video I know of to have been released on DVD; it was also available on videotape and LaserDisc. Only the DVD is currently in print.

| Other Voices Other Rooms (1993) | ||
|---|---|---|
|

This glorious video was shot over two nights at Austin's Paramount Theatre at the end of Nanci's U.S. Other Voices Other Rooms tour. Many, many guest stars appear with Nanci, including Emmylou Harris, Iris DeMent, Frank Christian, Jerry Jeff Walker, Don Edwards, Tom Paxton, Carolyn Hester, Townes Van Zandt, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Odetta, and Governor Ann Richards. Unfortunately, several other guests who appeared onstage with Nanci on those evenings were left out, like John Gorka, Alison Krauss and Nina Gerber. I know because I was there... This was originally available on VHS tape and LaserDisc...

This is the video version of the album of the same name. As far as I can tell, it is only available on DVD. The DVD contains all the songs from the CD, sequenced slightly differently, plus it contains four songs not on the CD -- "Clock Without Hands," "Lost Him In the Sun," "Home on the Radio" and "If I Had a Hammer." Of these, "Home on the Radio" has never been recorded by Nanci before.
