Bob Dylan @ Athens, Greece – June 28, 1989 (full concert video)





bob-dylan-athens-1989

The final show of Dylan’s month-long European sojourn is one of the best shows of the tour. Although the main set is a standard length, Dylan includes a unique acoustic “Every Grain of Sand,” and a second and o1Gold.” The encore is five Van Morrison joins Dylan onstage, performing two of Van the Man’s better known songs, “Crazy Love” and “And It Stoned Me.” Filmed for the BBC “Arena” special, they end up unused, presumably because Dylan again has the lights way down.
