The audio begins with traffic sounds and the tune "Dance of the Infidels". Then there are sounds of a strong wind or storm. An announcer (or possibly Powell himself) introduces Bud Powell who performs "I'll Keep Loving You" This is followed by Bud Powell who says: "I feel fine, thank you. The doctor said I'll be well soon and I'll go home. He said it's improving fast." At 10:46, Powell performs "I Should Care" (Roost Records). At 14:40, Powell and Paudras speak to each other. Next, Powell listens and responds to Art Tatum's "More Than You Know." Powell sings "La Marseilaise." At 15:50, there is a performance of "Shaw Nuff" (with brushes). At 18:35, the audio abruptly shifts to a performance of "I'll Remember April" with Charles Mingus. Next, Powell performs "Anthropology." At 26:56, Bud Powell talks about Thelonious Monk and says Monk is his best friend. This is followed by "Round Midnight". Next is a soundtrack to a television performance by Powell (piano), Pierre Michelot (bass) and Kenny Clarke (drums) at Club Saint Germain in Paris of "Crossing the Channel" and "Blues in the Closet" (by Oscar Pettiford). The trio also performs "John's Abbey." At 47:07 Powell (solo) plays “Dusk in Sandi” (Verve Records). At 49:12, Powell, Michelot, and Clarke play "Get Happy" at Blue Note. Then there is an excerpt of an unidentified tune. At 53:32, an announcer (Symphony Sid) introduces Bud Powell, Max Roach, and Curly Russell who perform "All God's Chillun Got Rhythm". At 57:11, Bud Powell is presented an award and speaks briefly. Then there are traffic noises and sounds of a strong wind or storm.
