July 21: Bob Dylan live in Vienna 1981 (2 audience films)

Vienna 1981 4Shot Of Love Tour Concert #25

I have a double DVD set of this concert in my collection. The pictures are taken from one (or both?) of the audience films included here, but the sound is so much better!

Let’s Begin from the sound upgraded DVD:

It is one of the real gems from Europe 81. It is too bad it’s not on YouTube or one of the other video sharing sites. What I have found are two concerts that are documents from a fantastic tour. They are both worth watching, but I think you should seek out the “release” with the sound upgrade.

“…Portions of this performance seem a little ‘routine’ on Dylan’s part, but there are plenty of inspired and inspiring moments. I Believe in You, In the Summertime, Lenny Bruce all deserve mention as outstanding performances, and Times is a notch higher still. Solid Rock and When You Gonna Wake Up drive the message home late in the set with intensity to spare.

Great stuff, Highly Recommended.”
