November 15: Bob Dylan live in Philadelphia 2002 (videos)

bob dylan 2002

If the show didn’t have the playfulness of the song selection and emotion of Madison Square Garden, what it did have was Dylan singing with amazing intensity (especially at the beginning) and not only that, but the confidence to make his voice do what he wanted it to do.

15 November 2002

  • Bob Dylan (vocal & guitar)
  • Charlie Sexton (guitar)
  • Larry Campbell (guitar, mandolin, pedal steel guitar & electric slide guitar)
  • Tony Garnier (bass)
  • George Recile (drums & percussion)

  1. Maggie’s Farm
  2. In The Summertime
    This was followed by a rather astounding “In The Summertime,” with Larry on harmony (and mandolin) but the action was all in Dylan’s staccato-like vocal and he was having a hell of a great time singing it, almost charging the melody with the emphasis on lines and words: STRANGERS they MEDDLED in our affairs. It was an amazing performance.
