TypeError whn running train.py

[Drew]

When I run train.py, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "train.py", line 20, in <module>

From this, I'm guessing I'm using the wrong version of librosa. What version do you recommend?

I downgraded to 0.5.0 and still get the same error

@Dysproh - I was running into this issue and found this thread: librosa/librosa#732

I was able to solve by running pip install 'joblib==0.11' --force-reinstall hopefully that can help you as well
