GREAT performance from Dylan & his trio (core of what would become the The Rolling Thunder tour band).. They were the last act this day.. the filming was running late & they didn’t get to play before 2 am. Still there is fire in Dylan’s eyes.. and he drives his band through the songs.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_message message_box_color=”mulled_wine” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-quote-left”]Dylan gives an excellent performance, and is surprisingly unselfconscious about the camera – he looks uncomfortable at the start of each song.. but it is a functional discomfort, which evolves into a purposeful seriousness, clearly a surface expression of his concentration, his intensity,  his intent.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_message message_box_color=”mulled_wine” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-quote-left”]Dylan, accompanied by Scarlet Rivera, Rob Stoner, and Howie Wyeth, performs three songs at WTTW-TV studios in Chicago for “The World of John Hammond,” a one-hour tribute to John Hammond, Sr. “Hurricane” is performed twice, the broadcast version being an edit of the pair. The other songs are “Oh Sister,” receiving its first public performance and dedicated to “someone watching tonight,” and a rewritten version of “Simple Twist of Fate,” concentrating more on the narrative and clearly influenced by his collaborations with Jacques Levy.
