April 21: Bob Dylan Fort Lauderdale, FL, 2015 (videos)

This was one incredibly good concert. I last saw Dylan at the final Beacon Theater concert which I thought was good but not great. The set list appears to be written in stone. But the delivery of the music by Bob and the band rose to a much higher level than I have experienced at any of the recent concerts I have attended in the past ten years. He and the band are completely in sync with one another. If you have the opportunity to see this series, you are in for a real treat.

April 20: Bob Dylan Gonna Change My Way of Thinking, Melbourne, 2011

melbourne

Gonna Change My Way of Thinking was released on the album, Slow Train Coming, the nineteenth studio album by Bob Dylan, released on August 20, 1979 by Columbia Records. It was the artist’s first effort since becoming a born-again Christian, and all of the songs either express his strong personal faith, or stress the importance of Christian teachings and philosophy. The evangelical nature of the record alienated many of Dylan’s existing fans; at the same time, many Christians were drawn into his fan base. Slow Train Coming was listed at #16 in the 2001 book CCM Presents: The 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music.

The album was generally well-reviewed in the secular press, and the single “Gotta Serve Somebody” became his first hit in three years, winning Dylan the Grammy for best rock vocal performance by a male in 1980. The album peaked at #2 on the charts in the UK and went platinum in the US, where it reached #3.

Today we have picked a really good version from his tour down-under in 2011.

Bob Dylan - The Childrens Crusade

 Dylan’s voice is extremely rough, but the performance, if anything, even more intense than the English shows
~Clinton Heylin (A Life In Stolen Moments)

Great 66 Show where Dylan sounds very stoned, and still brilliant.

For this show he uses a borrowed guitar, as his had been broken. When compared to the Sydney show, this performance is more laid back.

If your mem’ry serves you well
We were goin’ to meet again and wait
So I’m goin’ to unpack all my things
And sit before it gets too late
No man alive will come to you
With another tale to tell
But you know that we shall meet again
If your mem’ry serves you well
This wheel’s on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode!
