April 22: Bob Dylan Just Like A Woman, Clearwater, Florida 1976 (Video)

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Ev’rybody knows
That Baby’s got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls
She takes just like a woman, yes, she does
She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl

His spring 1976 performances, and the live album and one-hour television show (both called Hard Rain) that made those performances available to a broader audience, were unpopular with the public and (at best) ignored by critics and commentators, but they contain some of the very finest performed art Bob Dylan has ever produced.
~Paul Williams (Bob Dylan: Performing Artist, Vol 2: The Middle Years 1974-1986)

Bob Dylan’s spring 1976 tour (Rolling Thunder Revue II) gave us many incredible performances.

Parts of 3 concerts were filmed:

  • Starlight Ballroom – Belleview Biltmore Hotel, Clearwater, Florida – 22 April 1976 – Afternoon
  • Starlight Ballroom – Belleview Biltmore Hotel, Clearwater, Florida – 22 April 1976 – Evening
  • Hughes Stadium – Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado – 23 May 1976

This post is a collection of videos from these shows that I’ve found on different websites. . Please use the comments section or drop me an email if you know were to find more videos from these shows. As always we do not upload videos, we only embed stuff that is already uploaded.

PS! if the videos appear black (no play button), just click on them… and they will probably start.

Bob Dylan: Fort Collins, Colorado 23 May 1976 (video & audio) (read more)

The last three songs on the album (“You’re a Big Girl Now,” “I Threw It All Away,” and “Idiot Wind“) are as powerful and exciting as anything Dylan has done (comparable, for instance, to the May 1966 versions of “Ballad of a Thin Man” and “Like a Rolling Stone”). As phenomenal as every aspect of each of these performances is, the unique orchestration of guitars, keyboards, violin, drums and voice on “Big Girl” must be singled out for particular praise. Stoner’s bass-playing while Dylan sings “Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstacy” on “Idiot Wind” will have a special place in my heart as long as I live.

Fantastic concert from the penultimate show of Rolling Thunder Revue 2. Five songs from this show were chosen to be included on Bob Dylan’s brilliant live album “Hard Rain”: Maggie’s Farm, One Too Many Mornings, Shelter from the Storm, You’re a Big Girl Now & Idiot Wind.
