September 5: Bob Dylan @ Hayarkon Park, Tel-Aviv, Israel 1987

bob dylan tel aviv 1987

Dylan opens a European tour with his first shows in Israel. After his brief flirtation with the Dead, Dylan has returned to playing with a real rock & roll outfit, the Heartbreakers, unfortunately still augmented by the Queens of Rhythm.
~Clinton Heylin (Bob Dylan: A Life in Stolen Moments Day by Day 1941-1995)

..this was nothing like the Dylan/Dead tour. As the concert tapes clearly demonstrate, it was the return of the real Bob Dylan, singer/bandleader/performer extraordinaire, the master of spontaneous music.
~Paul Williams (Bob Dylan: Performing Artist Volume 3: Mind Out Of Time 1986 And Beyond)
