Posted on by Egil Mosbron

All my songs are protest songs. All I do is protest. You name it and I’ll protest against it.
–> Bob Dylan (Press Conference, London, England – May 3, 1966)

Statement from Swingin’ Pig (editor):
Here’s a compilation project of Bob Dylan footage I spent a few weeks editing. Sources I pulled from were “Eat The Document,” “No Direction Home,” as well as others. I overdubbed all of the footage with soundboard recordings released on “The 1966 Live Recordings.”

Five days before Dolly Parton released her classic album, Little Sparrow (January 23, 2001), she presented many of the songs on a very special performance at the Austin City Limits TV-show. This was Parton’s debut on the show, and does a classic set. The songs are magnificent and musicianship is out of this world.

Posted on by Egil Mosbron

Van’s show at the Rockpalast Christmas Show in Dusseldorf on 19-Dec-98 will likely go down as one of Van’s most famous concerts: it was broadcast live; it is an excellent show; the band was buttressed by Candy Dulfer and Fred Wesley.

Bob Dylan: 9 Videos from “Trouble No More – A Musical Film”

Posted on by Hallgeir Olsen

Bob Dylan is the greatest singer of our times. No one is better. No one, in objective fact, is even very close. His versatility and vocal skills are unmatched. His resonance and feeling are beyond those of any of his contemporaries. More than his ability with words, and more than his insight, his voice is God’s greatest gift to him.”
-Jann Wenner (Rolling Stone Magazine)

October 25: Full concert audio – Bob Dylan in St. Paul 2001

Posted on by Egil Mosbron

Coming out of seeing a Bob show, it’s always too easy to say this was the
best ever. For me nothing could ever top 1995 Target Center, but tonight
had its amazing moments which showed a band right at the top of its game.
“Summer Days” into “Sugar Baby” into “Wicked Messenger” was as kick-ass
and profound a sequence of three songs as I could ever have imagined.
