Yes, it is a great live session, and my kinda music too! I adore both songs & enjoyed the videos, Saffron; thank you! Can't quite make out who the blond in the middle is, but it looks like Bonnie Raitt & Kathryn Dawn Lang to the left and right. I'll let someone else answer the rest. :)
Put together by musical director T-Bone Burnett, Orbison was accompanied by a supporting backing band which included many notable musical performers. Other celebrity admirers of Orbison were in the audience, including Billy Idol, Patrick Swayze, Sandra Bernhard, and Kris Kristofferson. The backing band was the TCB Band, which accompanied Elvis Presley from 1969 until his death in 1977: Glen D. Hardin on piano, James Burton on lead guitar, Jerry Scheff on bass, and Ronnie Tutt on drums. Male background vocalists, some of whom also joined in on guitar, were Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, and Steven Soles. The female background vocalists were k.d. lang, Jennifer Warnes, and Bonnie Raitt.

Wondered if you'd spot k.d! She's looking quite frisky in this recording.
