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.

“No time to post anything detailed, but never have I been to a Bob Dylan concert where there was more unanimity about the quality of the performance among those who attend a serious number of Dylan concerts in an average year. Even the most cynical who can always find fault were mesmerized, some astounded. You cannot ask for more than Bob Dylan put into that Thursday performance in Brixton.”
