Chris Isaak with Raul Malo - PBS Soundstage, Park West, Chicago, IL, 9-2003

It seems the people who made the "PBS Soundstage" TV show really, really liked Chris Isaak in the early 2000's. They gave him episodes in 2003, 2004, and 2005. No other musical act in the history of the show had three episodes in a short time period like that. Luckily, the content of all three are mostly different (with one of them being a Christmas show), so I'll post all three. Here's the first one, from 2003.

In early 2002, Isaak released his latest studio album, "Always Got Tonight." But by the time the Soundstage show was revived after being off the air for over a decade in 2003, it had been well over a year since that album's release. A couple of songs were played from that album - "One Day" and "Courthouse" - but mostly he just played the most popular songs from his career to that point.

And the end of this album, there are two songs by Raul Malo, who is best known for being the lead singer of the country band the Mavericks. You can read more about his in his Wikipedia page here:

Oftentimes for this show, the main star is joined by one or more guest stars. But in this case, it seems there's no connection between Isaak and Malo. I looked at the video, and not only were two of them not on stage together, but the stage setting looks totally different for the Malo songs, suggesting they probably were recorded on a different day and/or different location. 

Also, I don't even really know exactly when the Isaak songs were recorded. I just found a mention that the concert happened some time in September 2003, so I went with that. If anyone has more precise details, please let me know.

This album is 51 minutes long.
