JL BOOTS aJli. .
Well, I said that there would be a glut of boots this issue and it looks like I was
right. I'll start with the new '86 tour albums.
JAPANESE WHISPERS: Is from Osaka 6/3/86, and is the best quality '86 boot to date,
though it will be worth hanging on till the US boots make an appearance. (single
album) . · ·
LAST NIGH!' IN THE FAR EAST: is a 4LP box set on multicolour vinyl. c/w Petty set,
recorded Tokyo 10/3/86.
ACROSS THE BORDERLINE: from the same people that gave us 'Cookie's Favourite' (ISIS
#7). Again very nice Spin Magazine picture cover. Nine of the songs are from
Wellington Feb,S & four· from Auckland Feb, 7. the quality of the recording is
somewhat poor, but then so were all the New Zealand audience tapes. (350 copies only
single album). .
TRUE CONFE.5SIONS
.
TOUR:. r'
Recorped Osaka 6/3/86, with two songs from Tokyo. Nice cover.
SAN DIF.GO: was the first show on the USA tour, and as far as I know SAN DIF.GO i~ the
first US boot. (3LP's from the Goldenhall 9/6/86).
BY nm TIME WE GOT TO BIACKBUSHE: Right that's the '86 shows out of the way, and
ies back to '78 •. I've not heard this one, but it's a 4LP box set en coloured vinyl.
IN 1HE MCX)D #2: Outtakes from the first two official albums on coloured vinyl. 1hey
just keep a-comin', I guess "there's a bran' new ginmick every day"l
NOW AND TIIEN': is :more multicoloured vinyl, this tdme the songs are from 'Live Aid' &·
'Farm·Aid,'. much the same as the 'Now's The .Time For Your Tears' boot (ISIS #7).
nIROUGH nm YEARS:' is a 2LP set of Biograph stuff. 250 are on a nice picture disc,
~ while another 100 are on multicoloured vinyl.
LIVE IN QSLO: '3LP set from Oslo '81. 300 copies on multicoloured vinyl.
OIIAGO 63 & M:>RE: is the ':Bear tape', plus odds.
GWW LIVE 1961: Poor quality recording from the 1961 Minneapolis Party Tape. Red
vinyl, plain 'rubber stamp' .cover.
SEVEN DAYS: Outtakes from, Secret Sound Studio '75, Clearwater '76 Rundown '80,
Clover '81 · and 'Infidels' sessions at the Record. Plant, New York 183. White and
clear vinyl, with nice 'Fmpire Burlesque' pie, covez;
HE'S 1HE BOSS: (Mick Jagger) 'Uve Aid' yet again.
CLF.AN curs: Yes more 'Infidels' outtakes, but this time on picture disk.

11/02/86: Sydney 135: 00


All those missing Sydney's are now about. 'Illis one features a new song 'Baby Don't
You Go'. 'Ille quality is perhaps a little better than other down unders, but not
much. First eight songs distort.
13/02/86: Sydney 122: 00
More of the same, no unusual tracks though.
24/02/86: Sydney •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••..••••••••••••••• 118: 00
Rather rough quality, especially the latter part.
25/02/86: Sydney 124: 00
An interesting track listing this; quality passable too. 'Ihis is the show with the
'Dark Eyes' attempt: When you hear it you'll understand why 'attempt'. By audience
reaction something funny is happening, but you don't know what it is, •• do you!.
24/7 /86: Kansas 120: 00
Again first few tracks distorted, especially a shame as the first number is 'Kansas
City.' One for the archive only I'm afraid.

05/08/86: Paso Robles 120: 00


Better quality than the others, just. 'Illis is the one with 'Brownsville Girl', so I
guess.we'll all want it. A shame that the quality isn't better.
1963: Joan Baez PA Tape (Dylan Encores) •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 44:00
A slightly more complete recording of the 'Troubled And I Don't Know Why' gig. 'Ihis
one runs slightly fast however, pity as the sound is better than previous tape.
06/65: B.B.C. In Concerts •••.•••.••••••••••••.••••••.•.•••••••.•••••••••••.• 60:00
My favourite find this month, this is NOT from the disc's but new (and much sharper)
tape. It has faults however, the taper missed the opening bars of 'Hollis Brown' ,
and the tape runs out during 'It Ain't me Babe'.
12/06/86: Cal Expo Ampitheatre, Sacremento •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 124:00
Rather ordinary quality, with yet another happy birthday. Thi.s time to Madeline
(Can't he just buy birthday cards like everyone else).
18/06/86: Venerans Memorial Coliseum, Phoenix ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 110:00
Sound a little better than 12th. but once again speed problems.
26/06/86: Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, Minneapolis ••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 156:00
A very poor a~dience tape with lots of echo for good measure.
29/07/86: Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 145:00

04/08/86: Pacific Ampitheater, Mountain View, LA •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 142:00

19/02/86: Sports Arena, Melbourne. (Dire Straits Encores) •••••••••••••••••••••• 22:00
Much reported and now finally here. 1he 4 tracks are preformed well, sounds to me as
if it was rehearsed. especially nice 'Pillbox Hat', quality could be better.
11:03:87: Gershwin Celebration, New York •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 3:00
Curious one this , quality is rather rough but shows Dylan trying hard to copy the
original!? Judging by the program this was an expensive item.
09: 07:87: 'Hotel' Recording, Providence, Rhode Island ••••••••••••••••••••••••• 33:00
Four songs in all, (though there are two takes of 'Earth Angel') and are all rockers
too. Curious thing is that the tape sounds like mixing board with full band!?
04/87: 'Jarrrnin' Me' 4:08
Cheating really, as Bob Doesn't appear to be on this track. It's the new (Petty-
Campbell-Dylan) song that opens The Heartbreakers new album, 'Let Me Up (I've Had
Enough') Sounds a bit 'Band Of The Handish'.

VIDEO:

a few pictures-to-video.

'Illree songs from that rrruch awaited film, sounds interesting, though unfortunately,
my favourite 'The Usual' is not a Dylan song! For the record the other two are,
'Night After Night' and of course, 'Had a Dream About You Baby'.

BOOK.5
TANGLED UP IN TAPE.5. By Glen Dundas.
This is an 80 page book containing listings of all known Dylan tapes. All this
information fits on to just 80 pages because all major tours are presented in chart
fonn. If you can't hold out any longer for your new edition of Krogsgaard then this
is the book for you.
While on the subject of Krogsgaard, Michael's long awaited update to 'Twenty
Years Of Recording' is said to be ''well in hand", rut with the '87 tour coming up it
could well be 1988 before we see it. A number of people have asked as to what format
this new book will take; well it seems that it WIU. be a complete volune rather than
a part two to 'Twenty Years Of Recording'.
'AIL ACROSS nIE TELEGRAPH The Bob Dylan Handbook': A selection of the first 25
'Telegraphs1, re-edited by Jofui Bauldie& Michael Gray. Selected essays complimented
by some fine photographs contained in nicely produced hardback volune. Probably
worth having even if you do have all The 'Telegraphs'.

Nice find this, the recently reported 'new' RTR tape.· Pity half of it isn't Dylan,

A rather noisy audience mars what is otherwise a clean recording. 11le Petty sets are

record this is the last of the US '86 tour tapes to arrive.
10/07/87: J.F.K. Stadium, Philadelphia ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 85:00

HFARTS OF FIRE: (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) CBS 460001.
The soundtrack alwn contains only three tracks that have any Dylan involvement.
'The Usual', 'Night After Night' and 'Had a Dream About You Baby'. In the film
itself Billy Parker, played by Dylan sings to Molly in a bam at Parkers farm. The
song 'A Couple More Years' written by Shel Silverstein I Dennis Locorriere, and
recorded by Dr. Hook unfortunately fails to make it on to the record. The soundtrack
is available on LP, Cassette and CD, though as yet I've not seen the CD version.
TI-IE USUAL: CBS 651148.
Is available in both 7" and 12" formats, both are in picture sleeves the 12" having
a two track B side, and this is where the good old cock up dept, comes into it's
own. Both the sleeve and label state that track two, side two is 'They Killed Him',
when in fact the track is 'Driftin' Too Far From Shor~'·
INTERVIEW PICI'URE DISC:
This is, or was, a nunbered limited edition 12" picture disc album which seems to
have been released to coincide with the UK dates. It was in the shops of Birmingham
in time for the first of the NEC shows and was available in at least three record
stores on the Saturday morning. However, by that same afternoon it had sold out not
to be seen again. I believe the interview is from 1965.

were one thing but so Many tapes so fast •• Thanks to all who have
help turn me into a red eyed physical wreck.
(
AUDIO :

Studio material 5:00


l
'79-80?
The much rumored 'Working on a Guru' plus some humming sounds rather
like a warm up track. Nice quality.

26-07-87 Anaheim, Calif. Anaheim Stadium Dylan/Dead 87:00


Good quality recording of the last of the Dylan/Dead shows.

05-09-87 Tel Aviv, Israel, Hayarkon Park 96:00


The first tap~ of the tour, indeed the first gig. Quality is very
clear, as indeed are all the new tour tapes (strange that the European
tours are consistently better quality than the US ones?) could that
it features 'Joey' and 'Watching the River Flow' but then change is the
norm for this tour.
07-09-87 Jerusalem, Isragl, Sultans Pool ~8:00
This beautifully exotic sounding gig was cut short by a power cut in
the first encore track, 'Slow Train' that effectively stopped the gig.
Still they got 'John Brown as a consolation.

10-09-87 Basle, Switzerland, st. Jacobshalle 65:00


Another highly varied good quality recording. Includes 'When I paint my
Masterpiece' and 'Queen Jane'

12-09-87 Modena, Italy, Autodromo 75:00


Recording is slightly over-cooked but a great gig.

13-09-87 Turin, Italy 71:00


A last minute alteration so we're not yet certain of the location.

15-09-87 Dortmund, West Germany, Westfalenhalle


Excellent recording. the gig opens with 'Knockin'
70:00
, and finishes with
I
one of the best versions of 'Forever Young' t
19-09-87 Rotterdam, Holland, Ahoy Stadium 59:00
The shortest gig in so far. Nice tracks though.

20-09-87 Hanover, Germany, Sportpark 63:00


Great version of 'Baby Blue', nice recording too.

21-09-87 Cooenhagen, Denmark, Valbyhallen 72:00


Super 'Desolation Row' and 'Joey', recording of the seemingly customary
high standard.

21
23-09-87 Helsinki, Finland, Isshallen 74:00
Another excellent quality recording, This gig features an encore of
'Desolation Row'

28-09-87 Helsinki, Finland, Isshallen 70:00


Nice quality and nice show too.

29-09-87 Stuttgart, Germany, Matin Schleyerhalle 73:00


Gets boring saying they're all good quality but they are.

01-10-87 Verona. Italy, Arena 75:00


A great atmospheric gig, you know what the quality is like.

I 07-10-87 Paris, France, P.O.P.B. Berey 82:00


Nice quality and contains a very unusual 'House of the Risin' Sun' most
J of the last track is missing though.

08-10-87 Brussels, Belgium 70:00


There are slight sound problems on side two of this tape but it is
certainly a good gig.

10-10-87 N.E.C. Birmingham, England 55:00


Excellent quality gig, including 'Pledging my Time'. It is incidentally
the only U.K. gig for which we do not own a master c9__py.

11-10-87 N.E.C. Birmingham, England 72:00


'John Brown' and 'St. Augustine', what more can you ask?

12-10-87 N.E.C. Birmingham, England 80:00


My favourite U.K. gig, includes 'Joey'

14-10-87 Wembley Arena, London, England 82:00


The gig all the music predd slated. Includes 'Frankie Lee' and
'Man of Peace'

15-10-87 Wembley Arena, London, England 72:00


The only U.K. gig not to feature a 'new' song. (Still a great gig though)

15-10-87 Wembley Arena, London, England 72:00


'Emotionally Yours' and 'To Ramona' in this one.

17-10-87 Wembley Arena, London, England 93:00


One of only two gigs that will not fit on a C90. This is hardly the
main feature though, what with George Harrison on 'Rainy Day Women'
and an encore of 'Let ~y people Go', Pass at your peril.
I
J --10-87 Woody Guthrie Story. B.B.C. FM Radio 120:00
Four tastefully prepared 30 minute episodes that tell Woodies story.
Lots of interview clips with our man.

--10-87 Hearts of Fire soundtrack album


No surprises here. Just the three songs we've had for some time.

23-05-84 Beverley Theatre? N.Y. 184 Rehearsal tape 60:00


A surprisingly good quality PA recording. Mostly tracks you'd expect
though. I am lea,d to believe that a more complete 'unedited' version of
this tape exists, but as yet does not circulate.

13-07-86 Saratoga Springs. Performing Arts Cen. 127:00


A new, P.A. tape. This time of the complete Dylan set. (has a break in
'Stone' otherwise OK) very nice quality.

? Studio Material 31:00


A real curiousity this one I must say. Quality is good if sound is a
bit 'dull' the tape features 5 run throughs of 'Sweetheart' and a new
song, 'This was my Love'. It alS'.> 'when the Night' Add to this the mention
of Mick and Mark by Dylan and ere you just as confused? Are these Infidels
outtakes or Empire Burlesque? As Bob also mentions (but doesn't play)
'Clean Cut Kid' my money is on Empire. Anyone care to shed any light??
(Infidels Chris, my money is on Infidels. ED.)

25-09-87 Gothenberg, Sweden, Scandinavium 70:00


No stunningly new t~acks. Quality though is very good.

26-09-87 Stockholm, Sweden, Isstadion 72:00


As above.

03-10-87 Rome, Italy, Paleur 73:00


Quality echoy but clear.

04-10-87 Milan, Italy, Palatrussardi 74:00


Very nice show, usual quality.

AUDIO :

17-09-87 East Berlin, Trap Tower Park 65:00


A rather boomy, though clear recording.

30-09-87 Munich, West Germany, Olympiahalle 65:00


Good clear recording. Only one elusive gig now, namely Nurenberg.

23
VIDEO :

01-10-87 Verona ( CP)


Close but rather dark.

10-09-87 Basle (CP)


If you think verona is dark, wait till you see this.

17-10-87 London, Wembley Arena (P~) 55:00


Suffers a lot from 'hands and heads' but close and in focus. Has the
Harrison episode but misses most of'Let ~y People Go'

January 1988

Audio :

19-11-79 Civic Auditorium, Santa Monica 40:00


This is the missing part of the concert. So we now have the complete show.
Quality is similar to the previous 'part'. I imagine that in fact they
both come from the same source.

20-11-79 Civic Auditorium, Santa Monica 95:00


Quality is very good, except for a sound drop in a couple of tracks.
This tape does not have 'Convenant Woman' on, which as it should be near
where th_e sound drops leads me to assume this song was not recorded,
rather than not played. There's lots of chat too.

21-11-79 Civic /l_uditorium, Santa Monica 95:00


Yes the other one. In fact we now have all the '79 shows. I just wish
that I could persuade you to listen. It was a special tour for Dylan
vocally as well as vocationally.

22-03-84 Rehearsals for Letterman Show. 19:00


The recording quality of this is not as good as the show.(neither is the
music) but it's very existence I find amazing. This is apparantlly an
audio from a video, so watch this space.

16-09-87 Frankenhalle, Nurenberg, Germany 73:00


Very good sound on this the last missing '87 show. The f:racks are as
uniformiy unusual as before. Especially nice versions of 'Joey' and
'Shot of Love'

..;_, ,-999 - Down in the Groove. pre release 31: 30


See album review.
VI OED :

19-09-88 Ahoy, Rotterdam (D) 58:00


Nice and close, though the sound tends to be over cooked. As near as
damn the complete gig.

08-01-88 Arena BBC TV on Woody Guthrie 60:00


A very interesting program this, and one that appears to contain about
30 seconds from the Quest Show of Feb. 1st. 1964. If you missed this one
shame on you.

,,, ••••••
/78: STEPCHILD DEl-0: (2.55)
Just the one track. the recording is stereo PA rather than studio I think. Possibly
from a soundcheck? Nice recording though.
20/01/88: HALL OF FAME: 20:00)
s a 10 contains most o t e bits listed in the video section below, except it
appears to have the complete versions of 'Watchtower' and 'Rolling Stone' in PA
quality, (say it quick, maybe no-one will notice. I'm afraid it only goes to show it
was a VERRR-RRY loose gig!) .
20/01/88: HALL OF FAME 'IV CLIPS: (4:12)
NTSC incompatibilities mean we have to make do with this on audio for now. Just a
short clip of 'Like A Rolling Stone', plus Dylan's comnents and his rebuke of Mike
Love's speech. If you're interested the event took place at the Waldorf Astoria in
New York.
VIDEO:
07/07/84: WEMBLEY - GANTRY Fil.M: (121:00)
'Ihis is a real curiosity! Apparently UB40 had a camera set up to do their set at
Wembly, and some guy managed to sneak the Dylan set the same way! 1he sound is PA,
the picture, (which is full stage) is awful. Lots of picture breakdown due to
millionth generation copy I suspect. Mine is in colour, but only just! Of course
there must be a better copy somewhere! I understand the tape 'originated' from
Brighton area ?? Before I forget, it's complete up to the end of Van the Man's
version of 'Baby Blue'.
08/07/86: BOSTON: (21:00)
I'm gonna put my head on the block and say this is new. I think it is. It was shot
by an Italian and has not had to be transferred. Not as close as 'Meadowlands', and
with more heads and hands. It is, however, Very Sharp.
25/03/87: SKY TRAX ON 'HEARTS OF FIRE': (3:55)
'Ihi.s contains new material from the film. Including a clip of Fiona singing and Bob
playing.
12/09/87: t-ODENA: (144:00)
Yes the t ime is correct! This enterprising guy filmed the entire gig! Petty and
McGuinn sets also. Unfortunatly I think he may have been in the car park! c.ertainly
not an essential aquisition.
15/09/87: DOR'IMUND: (67:00)
Shot slightly from stage left. Picture from knees up. Virtually the complete
concert.
19/09/87: 1HE AHOY, ROITERDAM: (26:30)
Stage left from waist up. Sound excellent but rather dark. From 'I Want You'
onwards.
28/09/87: FESHALLE, FRANKFURT: (12:30)
Face on to stage, showing Dylan waist up. 1here is some difficulty with audience
heads and hands, and the sound, whilst very clear, sounds a littleslow. 1his is in

31
fact only a sample of Uhh bother, saneones film. As yet the full version is not
circulating, (not around here at least).
29/09/87: MARTIN SCHEYERHALLE, STUTTGART: (69:50)
Shot from Dylan's left, waist up, mostly clear view, picture brighter than most.
Sound excellent.
30/09/87: OLYMPIAHALLE MUNICH: (71:14)
Shot head on, picture bees up. Suffers much from audience obscuring the view. Sound
is excellent though.
01/10/87: VERONA: 143:00)
Anot er entire concert. s time slightly closer than Munich '81, with good sound.
01/10/87: VERONA (RAI 'IV): (1:25) .
Just a clip of 'When The Night' fut better than nothing!
01/10/87: VERONA: 39:30)
ot ram s ag t y stage right, dark. Dylan waist up. Sound excellent. Complete
until 'Watching The River Flow' when taper gets busted!
03/10/87: 1HE PAI.EUR ROME, ITALY: (65:20)
Dylan knees up. Slightly stage left. A little dark. Suffers from a lot of heads and
hands. Sound excellent but dips in places.
04/10/87: PAIATRUSSARDI, MIIAN: (49:40)
Dylan from the knees up, shot from stage right. Picture is dark, sound excellent.
05/10/87: PIAZZA GRANDE, LOCARNO: (62:50)
Virtually the whole show. Shot slightly to Bob's left. Picture Dylan from thighs up.
A little dark but sound excellent.

07/10/87: P.O.P.B. BERCY, PARIS: (67:08)


Complete gig this, waist up and to stage left. The excellent sound unfortunatly
doesn't compensate for the rather dark picture.
08/10/87: FOREST-VORST, BRUSSEL.5: (71:00)
Shot straight on. Dylan is mid chest up, stunningly close but still a trifle dark.
Still to see 'Desolation Row' perfonned at this range is sanething to be
experienced.
11/10/87: N.E.C. BIRMINGHAM: (27:00)
I have wanted to list this for a while. If you only get one '87 video inake it this
one. Shot waist up from Dylan's left. Sound excellent. In my opinion the picture is
probably the best audience video of Dylan to appear yet!
14/10/87: WEMBLEY ARENA LONDON: 31:20)
ot ram Dy ans e t an waist up picture with excellent sound. It suffers rather
more than some from heads and camera dipping.
15/10/87: WEMBLEY ARENA, 1.DNDON: (12:43)
Shot from stage right and waist up, excellent sound (again! ) , Only three tracks,
(Deadman + encores) , but nice quality.

32
17/10/87: WEMBLEY ARENA, LONDON: (71:27)
Shot straight on and waist up. 'Ihis also suffers from 'heads' but is lighter than
the others, that is, there is enough light! Hence this is really a very watchable
video.
21/01/88: HALL OF FAME 'ROCK OF EUROPE': (60:00)
Shown here on 'Sky' channel. The program features footage of all the stars,
including a lengthy interview with Sean Lennon ( ! ? ) • It does contain Bob's speech
and clips of 'Like A Rolling Stone', as well as bits of other songs, (on which Dylan
can clearly be seen). Yes! we now have a film of Bob playing on 'Stop In The Name Of
Love'.

AUDIO:
19/04/66: FESI'IVAL HAIL MELBOURNE - (60.00)
I guess I'll get a lot of people telling me this isn't new, and yes I know it could
be from the 20th, but I got it recently so here it is. No new tracks but it is a
continuous recording not taken from disc. Quality is super. Pass it at your peril.
/ /67: BASEMENI' ACETATE - 42.00
1s acetate was pur s recently and a tape copy from the disc is now
circulating. The quality really is excellent except that the disc sounds like
someone ate their dinner off it first!
22/08/85: FIRST MEllIODIST CHURCH HOIJ...YWOOD, CALIFORNIA - (15.18) _
Another odd one this. An audio ol the filming of 'Hearts Of Fire'. Similar to my own
Bristol recording in a way. For completists only! It features two incomplete
versions of 'When 'lhe Night ••• ' Solllld is good though slightly muffled.
05/02/86: PARK ROYAL HOTEL, WEILINGI'ON, NEW ZFAlAND - (44.10)
Jam session. Quality leaves a lot to be desired.
10/10/86: GENERAL ELECI'RIC WAREHOUSE, TORONTO - (7.43)
Again taken from the filming of 'Hearts Of Fire' this one is rather a disappointment
as all we have is one long and rather repetitive instrumental. Quality is good
though.
21/01/88: HAIL OF FAME PA TAPE - (59.26)
Amazing that this came out so quickly! This is the whole set. Dylan's two track are
placed one at the beginning and one at the end which suggests that ~b was onstage
throughout. (A theory that the various video clips seem to back-up). Quality is
excellent.

VIDED:
/ /85: FARM AID REPORT - (8.00)
A wierd one! Harry Belafonte introduces a short report on the first 'Farm Aid'
event. Includes some shots of Dylan prowling about backstage.
20/07/86: PHIIADELPHIA - (42.36
Area cur1os1ty t 1s. ere 1s no sound, implying an 8mn job, but the camera is not
stopped when Dylan drops from view! Could this really be a video without solllld? (You
know what I mean!). Anyway it's fairly close at times though there is a LOT of
audience in the way.
10/07/87: JFK STADIUM, PHIIADELPHIA - (87.00)
AT I.AST! One of the Dylan/Dead gigs on video. For my money these were superior
concerts to _the Petty ones. Shot face on to stage, figures half screen, almost full
stage. The picture is too steady to be hand held. Occasionally the taper films the
video screen rather than the stage, resulting in a much closer but grainy picture.
Sound is excellent.

9
15/09/87: DOR'IMUND - (57.00)
Shot slightly to stage left. Dylan waist up. Lots of heads and hands but the sotmd
is very good.
20/09/87: HANNOVER - £60.00)
Lots Of hands and hea s. Slightly stage right. Dylan waist up. Picture approx 3/4 of·
the screen. Sotmd, again, very good.
07/10/87: PARIS FRANCE - 28.00)
Mosty waist up. 'lllis i ivi ua shot some great stuff in '84, but I'm afraid this
is really a collectors only job. All songs are fragments only.
21/01/88: HALL OF FAME US 'IV REPORT (RONA ELLiarT) - (5.10)
'!here seems to be a zillion 'IV reports on this event. Most feature a fragment or two
of Dylan's appearance and/or speech. I don't usually list tracks but, in this case,
I thought it might help the archivists:
Spri~steen's speech

'!his issue see's probably the largest single input of new material, certainly
the largest input of new ~rthwhile material, for some time. So read carefully
'cause there's something here for everyone.
AUDIO.
22/08/85: FIRST MErnODIST CHURCH HOLLYWOOD CALIFORNIA - 15.18)
Own up tune. Last issue I ist tis erroneous y as being rom Hearts Of Fire'. In
fact it's an audio of the videotaping of the 'When '!he Night Comes Falling' video.
12/07/87: GIANTS STADIUM FAST RtrrnERFORD - 87.00

24/07/87: ALAMEDA STADIUM. OAKI..AND CALIFORNIA - 89.00
Dy an Grate u Dea. Not new gigs - t ese three are the much vaunted 'DAT' audios
of these shows. Were the worth the wait? Well, maybe. 'Ibey are definitely better
quality than previous tapes though certainly not the super-duper quality we all
hoped for!
/ /88: 'HANDLE WIIB CARE' - (2.57)
Single release. '!his recording is actuallr from a rather hl.lilOrous US radio interview
with George Harrison and Jeff Lynne. 01 George hassles the interviewer, pointing
out that much good music is ignored because it isn't corrmercially successful. He
points to Dylan as such an-example and when the interviewer tries to cut him short
George takes control by playing an acoustic version of 'Every Grain Of Sand'! ('Ihe
whole program is 10.00) But I digress - back to the track. It sounds like another
old song actually. George and Roy Orbison sing alternate verses while Dylan and
Harrison handle the chorus. '!he track is supposedly out in Europe as the 'B' side to
the latest Harrison single though I have yet to locate a copy.
07/06/88: CONCORD PAVILLION, CONCORD, CALIFORNIA - (73.00)
First day of the tour. I could say a lot but, as I have prattled on at length about
a show or two elsewhere I' 11 restrict myself here. Quality is a bit dodgy - I
suspect that the speeds out a bit. Features Neil Young on guitar but, surprisingly,
not on vocals. Lots of unusu~l tracks including 'Lakes Of '!he Pontchartrain'.
09/06/88: CAL-EXPO. SACRAMENTO CALIFORNIA - (45.00)
Quality better on this one hut, unfortunately, not the complete gig having the
opening three songs missing. First airing of the mystery 'rebel' song. Reportedly
with Neil Young again though he is not in evidence.
10/06/88: GREEK THEATER, BERKLEY, CALIFORNIA - (90.00)
Again plagued by speed fluctuations, (I think), though otherwise good quality. 'Ihe
amazing variety of tracks continues including an electric 'Gates Of Eden' and an
acoustic 'Rank Strangers To Me'. '!his is supposedly the third show to feature Neil
Young.
11/06/88: SHORELINE AMPHI'IHFATER, t-OUNTAIN VIThT, LOS ANGELES - (78.00)
Vocals are clear though the overall group sotmd is muddy. 'Ihe last show to feature
Neil Yo~ and the only one on which he is prominent. The acoustic tracks are
amazing, Man Of Constant Sorrow'!! Dylan is not alone for these shows but has the
mysterious Mr Smith with him on acoustic guitar, giving all the tracks a much fuller
sound. Reports of this show claim that the second track performed was 'Are You

5
Sitting'. This is not so on the tape however, the second track being 'My Back
Pages', so was it ever played? Answers on a postcard please to ••••••
18/06/88: ALPINE VAl.l.EY FAST TROY WISCDNSIN - 87.00
Qua Lty is very nice a to my ear, this is the st show so far to emerge.
Unbelievable versions of 1Absolutely Sweet Marie', 'Your A Big Girl Now' and the
acoustic 'Ballad Of Hollis Brown'. Unfortunately the last track, 'All Along The
Watchtower', is mostly missing.
21/06/88: BLOSSOM MUSIC CENTER, CUYAH(X;A FALL.5, OHIO - (80.00)
Quality is pretty good.
22/06/88: RIVERBEND MUSIC CENTER, CINCINNATI, OHIO - (75.00)
Quality is pretty good.
24/06/88: GARDEN STATE ARTS CENTER, HOI11DEL, NEW JERSEY - (79.00)
Great performances though not such a variety of tracks. Well he can't keep it up
every gig can he? Vocals nice and clear though overall sound is a bit dull. Nice
version of 'Silvio'.
25/06/88: GARDEN STATE ARTS CENTER, HOI.11DEL, NEW JERSEY - (84.00)
Th2 next day, and what a change! A scorching version of 'Joey' and an acoustic set
iLcluding 'On The Trail Of The Buffalo' and again that version of 'Hattie Carroll'.
Q12ality is petty much as for the 24th.
2·.)/06/88: S.P. ARTS CENTER SARATCx:;A SPRINGS - 75.00)
Good sound 2~d good gig too. Lots o spirited versions including amazing renditions
cf 'Tomorrow Is A Long Time' and 'My Back Pages'.
30/06/88: JONES BEACH STATE PARK, NEW YORK - (92.00)
Very good sound on this one which includes 'Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues' and another
mysterious song possibly called 'Eileen'. The first show that will not fit onto a
C90 cassette.
01/07/88: JONES BEACH STATE PARK, NEW YORK - (85.40)
I think this runs a bit slow though, again, the sound quality is very good. 'Ihis
time acoustic versions of 'Mamna You Been On My Mind' and 'Barbara Allen'. It sounds
like quite a show.
02/07/88: GREAT WOODS MANSFIELD BOSTON - 70.00
Sound qua ity much as be ore. Good voca s but muddy backing. Acoustic tracks have
returned to the more familiar 'Mr Tambourine Man', 'Love Minus Zero/No Limit', and
'It Ain't Me Babe'. But what a strange electric version of 'Pretty Peggy-0'.

VIDF.O.

01/02/64: QUEST 'IV SHOW - (26.00)


A camera copy from NTSC brings this, the earliest Dylan show on video, to us. The
images are quite amazing. Dylan looks about 12! Hardly fitting the title of the
program, ''The Times They Are A-Changin' at all. The whole show is in a bunkhouse/log
cabin setting with rugged workmen liberally scattered all around, most of whom seem
totally oblivious t Dylan. The most moving performance though is that of 'Restless
Farewell', Dylan sit· .Lng alone on his bunk. A pity that the credits roll through
this one.
14/11/81: MUNICIPAL AUDITORIUM, NASHVILLE - (84.00)
Camera copies are the order of the day at the moment. Filmed stage left, Dylan and
2-3 others most of the time. 'Ihe images are half screen height. The picture quality
on many tracks is very dark and the camera copy emphasises this. 'Ihe sound is good
though and there aren't many US '81 videos around. The tape covers the first )0
songs complete.
22/03/84: DAVID LEITERMAN SHOW - REHERSAL - 19.00) ;
Yet another camera copy, hopeful y soon to be improved. I must say I found the audio
of this rather dull at the time but the video is another matter! Dylan really can be

6
seen to be trying here. 'Ihe clothes, hair, and shades make it look like something
straight out of the '74 tour. Picture quality is very sharp.
20/06/84: Ra-fA NEWSREPORT RAI 1V - 12.13

10/11/86: JUNO AWARDS - (5.36) .

AUDIO
07/06/88: CONCORD PAVILION CONCORD CALIFORNIA - 73.00
An exce ent quality upgrade of this tape, a most minus the audience, has
surfaced. Sometimes refered to as a 'soundboard' tape, I personally believe it to be
an audience tape with the audience faded out. It is certainly in excellent quality.

-13/06/88: PARK WEST SKI RESORT, PARK CI1Y, UTAH - (87.00)
Another very good quality audience recording. Standout versions of 'Baby Blue'
and 'License To Kill' though the acoustic set's probably not as good as some nights.
15/06/88: PEDDI.ARS GREEN, DENVER, COLORADO - (84.00)
'Ihe only version, so far, of 'One More Cup Of Coffee'. Very nice 'Simple Twist'
though many other tracks seem 'untogether'. Nice quality.
17/06/88: THE MUNY, St lDUIS MISSOURI - (88.00)
An excellent recordingol an excellent set. Great versions of 'I Want You', and
''Ihe Man In Me', a super acoustic set featuring 'Eileen Aroon' and 'Pontchartrain',
and a mind-blowing encore with 'Mama You Been On My Mind', 'Blowin', a blistering
'Watchtower' and 'Nadine'.
18/06/88: ALPINE VALLEY, FAST TROY WISCONSIN - (92.00)
Listed before as being incomp!ete, this fu11 concert features nice versions of
'Frankie Lee' and 'Big Girl Now' with a stunning 'Hollis Brown'
28/06/88: FINGER lAKES PERFORMING ARTS CENTER CANADAIGUA NEW YORK - (78.00

An exce ent qua ity, 1 s ig t y omy, recor ing. Su~r guitar work from Mr
Smith with driving versions of 'Serve Somebody' and Silvio' and a stunning
accoustic set featuring 'Love Minus Zero', 'Ramona', 'Buffalo' and a truly amazing
'Hard Rain'. The joint guitars really work well together here.
08/07/88: FORUM DE M)NTRFAL, QUEBEC, CANADA - (84.00)
Very P.ood quality, though not as clearly defined as some. It features, of
course, Haleluia', on which Dylan even tries his hand at Cohen's distinct
intonation.

24/07/88: TROY G CHASTAIN MEM>RIAL PARK AMPI'IlIFATER, ATLANTA - (78.00)
Vocals are excellent but the overall tape sound, whilst very good, could be
improved. Best track is the acoustic set closer 'Hattie Carroll'.
25/07/88: TROY G CHASTAIN MEM)RIAJ... PARK AMPI'IlIFATER, ATLANTA - (85.00)
Quality clear, though not excellent. A rather messy gig with the group sounding
ubcertain as to how to end several tracks. Features 'Forever Young' in the encore.

07/08/88: SANTA BARBRA
20/08/88: CAMPS DE BRIONNE MUSIC 'IlIFATER, WASHINGTON - (85.00)
Good stereo recording. Dylan, however, is having problems. During the acoustic
set he makes such a mess of 'It Ain't Me Babe', that he is forced to stop for a few
seconds before continuing the song.
29/08/88: CNE STADIUM TORONTO CANADA - (67.00
is is much more ike it! A ine per ormance with great versions of 'Sweet
Marie', 'Masters Of War', and 'Shelter From The Storm'. 'One Too Many Mornings', in
the acoustic set deserves special mention, as does the gig closer, 'Knockin'.
03/09/88: MANCHESTER CONNECTICUf - 75.00
Exce ent qua Lty an what trac s. Electric 'Visions Of Johanna' and great
acoustic versions of 'Rank Strangers', 'I Don't Believe You', and 'She Belongs To
Me'. (Now if he'd only stop playing Maggies Farm!)
VIDEO
Following some songs there may be a key, indicating one of the following:

I
sl - Start Missing. Probably just a few seconds.
e - End Missing. Again, probably just a few seconds.
b - Break In Song. Resulting in part being missed.
i - Incomplete. Probably less than half.
04/06/84: 1HE AHOY, RO'ITERDAM - (56.15)
Shot stage right and featuring Dylan waist up most of the time. Sound is
listenable, though slightly harsh.

Deadman, To Ramona, Tomorrow.Is A Long Time,Gotta Serve Somebody, Chimes Of Freedom,
Rainy Day Women.
24/07/87: OAKLAND AIAMEDA STADIUM, OAKLAND
Seems like these special gigs are finally starting to show as videos. This one
is shot face on to stage and features Dylan and most of the Dead full figure. That
is when you can see them! There are lots of heads on this one (Dead Heads? ••• Ed),
and it also seems to take the tapers the first~ hour to learn how to stop the auto-
focus, so up to 'Highway 61' the group go constantly in and out of focus. After this
, though, it gets much better, probably the best of these I've so far seen. Solllld is
clear but boomy.
TRACKS: Times [s], Man Of Peace, Maggies Fann, I'll Be Your Baby, I Want You,
Highway 61, Baby Blue, Mobile Blues, Thin Man, Shelter From The Stonn, Slow Train,
Heavens Door, Touch Of Grey, All Along The Watchtower.
17/10/87: WEMBLEY STADIUM, LONDON - (92.36)
Shot almost face on to stage. Dylan plus one other knees up when you can see it •
. Most of the time it's backs of heads or blackness, though the solllld is good.
TRACKS: Times, Rolling Stone, Maggies Fann, Forever Young [b], Deadman, St
Augustine, Simple Twist, I'll Be Your Baby, Watching The River, Serve Somebody, Man

HA•••••· a
......... ,.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those people who assist in
the compiling of 'MAGNETIC MOVEMENTS'. I would also like to mention their names but,
in view of the difficulties this may cause, I will just say, "you know who you are".
Some people seem to be in some doubt as to the true purpose of 'MAGNETIC
MOVEMENTS'. 'MAGNETIC MOVEMENTS' is not a "trading list", it is not a list of "items
for sale", nor is it a list of material that is readily available"""on application to
me. What it is, is a list compiled solely for the purpose of furthering the art of
Bob Dylan. There are many people who are intrigued to know what is happening to
record and preserve the events in Dylan's career for future generations. Others
merely wish to be kept informed of what is currently going on in concert hall and
recording studio. Contrary to some peoples belief the material listed in 'MAGNETIC
MOVEMENTS' is not collected for the purpose of financial gain, but rather because
the people who actually bother to collect this material genuinely believe, whether
rightly or wrongly, that they are keeping an historic record of a most Irnpor tant
figure of their times. Who would deny them that right?.
There is, of course, a considerable amount of further important material which is
understood to exist but which is, unfortunately, in the hands of people who prefer
to keep it to themselves rather than to share the enjoyment of such material with
others. One can only hope that such material will be heard and enjoyed by others one
day, when the current holders of that material or, more likely, their heirs, change
their way of thinking and realise that sharing with others can be a rather nice
experience.
In the meantime 'MAGNETIC MOVEMENTS' will continue to bring you the news and
information available with the kind help and assistance of people who are genuinely
interested in furthering the art of Bob Dylan.

AUDIO:
.08.62 TONY GLOVERS HOME. MINNEAPOLIS. [5.00]
A real curiosity this one. Listed in the new Krogsgaard book, this is a recording
made while the tape is being played over the telephone! Hence the quality is very
bad, with the tape running fast. It features a rough version of "Tomorrow is A Long
Time" plus much chatter •
• 05-06.63 TONY GLOVERS HOME. MINNEAPOLIS. [6.00]
C1rct.DTistances are the same as above, as is the quality, but this time only fragments
of the five featured songs, namely Hollis Brown/Girl From 'Ihe North Country/Boots Of
Spanish Leather/Eternal Circle/Hero Blues. Maybe the owner got wise after playing
the '62 tape!
07.12.79 BRUCE HIEMAN INTERVIEW. KMEX-FM. TUSCON ARIZONA [7.31]
I guess there will be a lot of people who will tefi me that this isn't new, but it's
here because it's certainly new to me! Quite short but Bob manages to get in a quite
heated discussion on religious cults.
29.05.88 LONE STAR CAFE. NEW YORK. [10.00]
Featuring Levon Helm, a rather spirited (as in alcoholic), rendition of "The Weight"
and "Nadine" with what sounds like a full band. Not a bad recording, though the
overall instrt.DTients aren't well defined.
07.06.88 CONCORD PAVILION. 'SOUNDBOARD TAPE' [73.00]
I must admit I felt a little uneasy (to quote a phrase), about listing this. I guess
it has to be mentioned as so many of you keep asking if I've heard it. Personally I
think it's really an excellent audience recording as, at times, you can hear talking
during the acoustic tracks. 'Ihe audience are mostly absent between songs but, again,
- 12 -
I feel this is due to careful fading out. Either way, if you want an excellent
recording of the complete gig, look no further.
09.07.88 CIVIC CENTRE ARENA. ,aITAWA, ONTARIO, CANADA. [80.00]
An excellent recording, with an outstanding perfonnance of 'Joey' and an amazing
acoustic "It's Alright Ma". This far into the tour the group are really cooking, but
it's still the acoustic sets that fonn the highlights for me.
17.07.88 MFAl)(M3ROOK MUSIC FESTIVAL. ROCHESTER MICHIGAN. [78.00
ag t y omy sound on t is. A nice gig t oug , my avouri te tracks being
''Drif tin"' and a super acoustic "Hattie Carroll".
20.07.88 MERRIWFA'IHER POST PAVILION. COLUMBIA, MICHIGAN DETROIT. [75.00]
A very good recording though, again, a bit 'boomy'. "Eiieen Arroon" and "Hard Rain"
from the acoustic set once more dominate the show.
26.07.88 MUDD !SIANO AMPHITHEATRE, MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE [90.00]
Nice recording though Smiths guitar is a bit back in the mix. Joe Walsh ~oins the
band on stage for the last two encore tracks, "Forever Young" and ''Maggie s Fann",
and blends in very well. Especially nice guitar duelling on ''Maggie's".
29.07 .88 STARPLEX AMPHI'IHEATRE. DALI.AS TEXAS [81.00]
Sound on the first track is a bit mufn:ed but thereafter it's OK. A nice gig with
great performances of "My Back Pages" and "Every Grain Of Sand", and a simply
stunning "Love Minus Zero/No Limit".
30.07.88 MESA AMPHI'IHEATRE. MESA ARIZONA [83.00]
Excellent quality recording, though the gig is not as well performed as many.
Despite the apparent raggedness of the acoustic set however, Bob does manage to pull
a performance of "Forever Young" out of the bag which really stuns the crowd.
06.08.88 BATI UI'l'OS l.AGOON. CARLSBAD SAN DIEGO. [81.00]
oug voca s are quite discernib et is is one o t e poorer quality recordings. A
great pity as we are treated to acoustic perfonnances of "Knockin' On Heavens Door"
and ''We Three, (My Echo, My Shadow, And Me)", last perfonned at the '86 shows but
then electric!
18.08.88 CIVIC AUDITORIUM, PORTLAND, MAINE. [75.00]
A good stereo recording with many fine performances, especially "To Ramona",
''Maggies Fann", and "Silvio"
21.08.88 PNE PACIFIC COLISEUM. VANCOUVER. [83.00]
An excellent stereo recording with many nice moments, evg , "Baby Blue", though the
obvious standout is ''Knockin' On Heavens Door" featuring Tracy Chapnan. It has to be
said though, that her perfonnance is hardly stellar. And what a pity they didn't do
an acoustic version,
24.08.88 NORIBI..ANDS COLISEUM. filONTON, ALBERTA [80.00]
A good recording that unfortunately has a rather intrusive audience. Perhaps they
are friends of the ol' Texas Tornado, Doug Sahm, who turns up to churn out a
performance of "She's About A Mover", for the final encore. Not for the faint
hearted.
27.08.88 ARENA, WINNIPEG STADIUM. WINNIPEG, MANITOBA [79.00]
Another excellent recording though the crowd is once again very enthusiastic. Great
performances of "She Belongs To Me" (acoustic), and "Ballad Of A Thin Man".
31.08.88 NEW YORK STATE FAIR GRANDSTAND. SYRACUSE, NEW YORK. [80.00]
Yet again an excellent recording. Nice show though no real standout perfonnances.
02.09.88 ORANGE COUNIY SPEEDWAY FAIR. MIDDLEI'OWN, NEW YORK. [82.30]
Yes, it's excellent again! A very nice ''Mr Tambourine Man", but the real gem is
running from "Don't Think Twice" into "Knockin' On Heavens Door", acoustic!
04.09.88 I.AKE CCM)UNCE FESTIVAL PARK, BRISTOL. [82.00] .
Well, you just KNEW the sound was going to be excellent didn't you! but what about
the acoustic ''Rank Strangers" and the electric "Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues"!
- 13 -
07.09.88 ESSEX JUNCI'ION. BURLINGI'ON NEW JERSEY [73.00
YAWNNN. Exce ent so qua t ty , Honest. wit a super "I Don't Believe You" that
just has to be heard to be believed!
08.09.88 BINGHAMPI'ON. NEW YORK 76.00
Exce ent qua ity t oug again tea ience are a little over exuberant. Listen out
for "The Man In Me" and a super "Barbara Allen".
10.09.88 WATERLOO VIIJ.AGE. SfANHOPE WATERLOO. [82.00
Exce ent soun qua t ty an a nice &ig, t oug no rea knockout perfonnances. (Well
no-one bats 100 every time, do they.)
11.09.88 PATRICK CENTER, G MASON UNIVERSI'IY. FAIRFAX [80.00]
Very zood recording quality for this inspired gig. Super "Sweet Marie" and ''To
Ramona''.
13.09.88 CIVIC ARENA. PITTSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA. [85.00]
Recording quality could be better, in fact this is one of the worst quality tapes in
from this tour. Includes a very nice version of "It takes A Lot To Laugh".
15.09.88 UNIVERSI'IY OF NORIB CAROLINA. CHAPEL HILL [82.00]
This is more like it. Very good auality recording with standout perfonnances of
''Hattie Carroll" and "In The Garden' • ·
18.09.88 KNOXVILLE TENNESSEE [78.00]
Excellent sound quality, with the only failing being that "Girl From The North
Country" is cut short a little. Very effective performance of "The Man In Me" too.
Anyone out there know what the venue was for this gig?
22.09.88 SUNDOME UNIVERSI'IY. SOUTIIERN CALIFORNIA, TAMPA, FLORIDA. [73.00]
Excellent sound quality with stonning renditions of "Shelter From The Stonn" and
''Highway 61 Revisited" •
. 24.09.88 UNIVERSI'IY OF FLORIDA, O'CONNEL CENTER. GAINSVIllE [84.00]
Another excellent recording marred only by a noisy crowd. If they had quieted down a
little they would have heard a &reat "Just Like A Woman" (electric), and an even
better "Hattie Carroll" (acoustic).
12.10.88 TOWER THEATER. UPPER DARBY, PHH.ADELPHIA. (Soundcheck) [29.25] .
The first soundcheck in quite a while to feature Dylan and, though still recorded
from the street/, quality wise, the best soundcheck so far. It features Cash's "Give
My Love To Rose' and "I Don't Hurt Anymore" from the "New" Basement Tapes.
12.10.88 TOWER THEATER. UPPER DARBY, PHH.ADELPHIA. [110.00]
The longest gig of the tour and featuring an amazing electric "115th Dream", a
rewritten "God On Our Side" with a verse now applicable to Vietnam, and even "Every
Grain Of Sand". A superb gig.
05.11.88 IMITATORS CONTEST. SACHAS HOTEL MANCHESTER [90.00]
Well, not strictly Dylan but a good quality recording of hopeful Dylan imitators,
some of which do actually succeed. Steven Keene is especially worthwhile, but why
does Dave Heath do a Bruce Springsteen impersonation? (Pity he can't move as well!).

The dating is based on the assumption that the sound used was from the concert

from both shows also. Shot mostly stage face on or to stage left. Varies in
closeness but does get to waist up. All tracks are incomplete.

05.03.86 BUDOKAN HALL. TOKYO, JAPAN. [29.57]
Dylan is half screen with two others. Picture is slightly to stage left but with
lots of heads in the way, (I thought the Japanese were small!). Picture focus varies
a lot too. Sound is excellent but really only for the most avid collector. The
tracks make it possible that this could, in fact, be from the 10th.

Two interviews, one with Petty, o appears eager top ease, an one with Dylan,
(who is not). Dylan is wearing the strangest coat that cover his head with a white
hood which, combined with the dark glasses, gives a strange arabic effect. Quality
though is, again, super. The two are interviewed separatly with Dylans contribution
lasting 6.10.
16.06.86 PACIFIC AMPHITHEATRE, COSTA MESA. - News Footage [5.05]
More uncut 'IV footage, nice and close and multi-angle. The two tracks make it

interviews with Marquand and the audience.
24.09.86 CARDIFF AIRPORT - Silent Amateur Film [26.15]
A film of the filming of the Rhoose Airport Scene. Mostly the back of his head
though, I'm afraid - and from a distance too!
•• 88 IBE TRAVELING WILBURYS PROMOTIONAL VIDEO [4.00]
The ''Handle With Care" video of course. There are, in fact two versions of this,
though the second simply has a strip across the bottom to persuade you to buy the

24.06.88 GARDEN STATE ARTS CENTRE1 HOI.MDEL. NEW JERSEY. [31.33]
Stage centre for this one but a pity its not closer as it's a very nice gig. Dylan
is full length and i screen with one other. A fair bit of obscuring, to start with
but it gets better. Sound is clear, if slightly 'boomy', with a nice sharp picture.

26.06.88 FINGER LAKES PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE, CANADAIGUA [29.49]

afraid.

13.07.88 IBE CASTLE, ClIARLEVOIX MICHIGAN [27.00]
Dylan full length plus one ot6er, shot very slightly stage left.Sound is over-

t Shot from left side and slightly above stage. Image 3/4 screen, Dylan plus two

AUDIO:
•• 81 'SHOT OF LOVE' ACETATES [44.00]
Easily my favourite find this month. At last we get to hear the long nnnoured
'Mystery Train'. Unfortunately though it would seem that most of the other tracks
are from the official release.
01-02.87 DYLAN/DEAD REHEARSALS. SAN RAFF~ [185.00]
Hold on now, wasn't this in the last issue? Well yes it was but, not only has it
turned up in BErrER quality, it now also includes complete versions of 'Senor' and
'Pledging My Time'. Rlll11ours persist that there is much more to come too!
17.02.87 PAI.AMINO CLUB, LOS ANGELES [87.00]
It's been a long time a-coming this one, and I hardly feel it was worth the wait. A
superstar jam at the end of a Taj Mahal gig, featuring George Harrison, John
Fogerty, Jesse Ed Davis, and Dylan. Dylan is on backing vocals and guitar for most
of the tracks. A good quality soundboard recording if a little rough.
19.02.87 PALAMINO CLUB, HOLLYWOOD [16.00]
Why we have had to wait so long for this is difficult to grasp. By no means the
entire event, and a very poor performance from Dylan. Poor quality 'PA' recording -
taken from a video I'd guess. File under 'crap'.
10.07.87 JFK STADIUM, PHILADELPHIA - P.A. TAPE [82.00]
We've had an audience recording of this gig for some time but it's now surfaced as a
P.A. tape. 'Illis, and the next two tapes, are from those (in)famous Dylan/Dead gigs
that have spawned the latest alblllTI. Strange that this concert should show up, as
it's not one of those used for the album. Complete Dylan set in quite tasty quality.
19.07.87 AUTZEN STADIUM, EUGENE, OREGON P.A. TAPE [62.00]
'Ihis one was used on the album. Quality is the same as above though this time there
is a 4 song chunk missing from the middle. What concerns me though is how well we
can hear the audience between the tracks - I know the Dead mike the crowds as they
record the gigs but do they go to this length?
24.07.87 OAKLAND Al.AMEDA STADIUM - P.A. TAPE [84.00]
Probably the best quality of the three. For those that are interested this tape is
also available with the Grateful Dead sets.
16.09.88 CAROLINA COLISEUM, COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA [75.00]
Another 188 tour tape. Sound quality is good, if a little bassey at times. A nice
gig that features an excellent 'Give My Love To Rose'.
19.09.88 UNIVERSI'IY HALL, CHARLarrESVILLE
Not so good a quality recording as manr from this tour. Sounds like a very spirited 4
gig though, including a nice ''Illin Man that just crumbles away at the end. As this
tape ends abruptly in the middle of an acoustic 'Barbara Allen' I think we can
asslllTie that we are missing at least one final electric track, probably two.
29.09.88 NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA [75.00] p
Quality could be better but I guess it's OK. Some of the high r,eaks distort a
little. Sounds like it was a marvellous gig though. Again a superb Thin Man' and a
brilliant acoustic/electric 'Forever Young'.
04.12.88 BRIDGE BENEFIT, OAKLAND COLISEUM [36.30]
'Ihe complete six song performance. Quality is good though it does have that 'boomy'
large venue sound. All acoustic of course.
12.02.89 LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - GRATEFUL DEAD CONCERT [55.00]
'Ihe most recent Dylan appearance has him guesting on the majority of the Dead' s
second set of this gig. 'Ille sound quality is rather hollow and the audience a little
over appreciative at times (cries of ''We love you Jerry"!!).
-27-
VIDEO:
11.07.86 CIVIC CENTRE, HARTFORD CONNECTICUIT [93.43]
Not very hot this one. Shot stage right, high up and distant, almost full stage for
most of the time. Dylan is about quarter screen height. Sound is good though, and it
does feature most of Dylan's set.
08.07.87 BRUSSELS [71.04]
Shot face on, mostly just Dylan's head, making this the closest audience video yet!
Fair amount of obscuring though I guess this close that's going to be inevitable.
Sound quality is excellent.
16.10.87 WEMBLEY ARENA, LONDON [62.47]
Shot stage left, Dylan and one other from waist up. The sound is now excellent
having been re-dubbed and now in sync. There are a couple of silent fragments but
otherwise the complete gig. 'Ihis is really the only worthwhile video from this show.
17.10.87 WEMBLEY ARENA, LONDON [89.16]
Shot face on, otherwise details the same as above. A very watchable video.
05.11.88 MILLION DOLI.AR BASH - Imitators contest [66.00]
What could be nicer than this nice, mostly steady and close memento of last years
iatherin~ of the faithful. Very funny now, it contains about two thirds of the
contest and all of the chaotic jam that followed. Only for the truly dedicated,
but it really is a hoot.
14.07.88 POPI.AR CREEK, HOFFMAN ESTATES, CHICAGO [24.51]
Shot stage right, Dylan and one other from waist up. The sound has been re-dubbed
but while excellent is not always in sync. Only five .songs t Homesick Blues/Sweet
Marie/'Ihin Man/Baby Blue/In The Garden. Still, this is the best quality '88 video to
have arrived so far.
05.03.89 TRAVELING WILBURYS: PROMOTIONAL VIDEO [3.00]
The date given is the date that this clip was broadcast on 'The Chart Show' and
features most of 'End Of 'Ihe Line'. Unfortunately it is badly marred by the program
controller giving us an astrological breakdown on Petty! The video is in similar
style to 'Handle With Care' except that this time they are on a train. During Roy's
part we see a rocking chair with a guitar in it and a picture of Roy on the wall
behind. All done in the best possible taste?!

This has been a busy month for all of course, any new tour always results in
frenzied activity here at MM headquarters! As I write there are quite a few
recordings already arriving, even with the tour still in progress, and as usual the
tour has brought other items to light that are not directly connected.
In the interest of compiling a complete listing of '89 tour video I would like
to ask anyone out there who has shot footage to get in touch with details of dates,
and contents etc. Please write to 'Magnetic Movements' c/o ISIS - 'Ihank you.

AUDIO:
14.01.74 .BOSI'ON GARDENS, AFI'ERNOON SHOW. - PA TAPE. [87.00]
This is for me TI-IE find of the month. I cannot over emphasize the thrill that this
recording gives me. The '74 tour is one that has always fascinated me, but one which
is poorly represented with many of the tapes around in only poor quality. At last a
PA tape, and superb quality stereo too! It includes The Band sets which unfortunatly
means that the recording ends at the end of the acoustic set, but it does show the
superb interplay between Dylan and The Band. The blistering intensity is something
that no other group has ever achieved behind our Bob. A must for any serious
collector, and final proof that the '74 tour really was as shit hot as the press
reports suggested.
15.09.87 DOR'IMUND. - PA TAPE. [50.00]
Yet another PA tape! This one also not the complete gig, though here we have a
mystery as the tracks are selected from throughout the set. Not one of the best
shows for me, though the recording quality cannot be faulted.
Tracks: Knockin/Senor/Shelter From The Storm/I'll Remember You/Frankie Lee and Judas
Priest/In the Garden/Tangled Up in Blue/Like a Rolling Stone/Forever Young.
27.05.89 SWI'SPAS, CHRISTINEHOF, SOU'IHERN SWEDEN. [72.00]
A super quality recording for the opening night of the tour. And what is it like?
Well like the'88 shows actually. In fact the show sounds rougher '88 shows though
the format is the same. The main noticeable difference is the presence of Dylans
harmonica, which is very prominent throughout. The second song is a 'new' one
(probably a standard) which sounds like ''You Don't Know Me". Standout tracks are
'Most Likely You Go Your Way', a triumphant version of 'Like a Rolling Stone' and a
beautifully extended 'Give My Love to Rose', which is about the only acoustic track
that does not suffer from bad guitarwork.
28.05.89 GLOBE ARENA, SI'OCKHOLM, SWEDEN. [75.00]
Again the quality of the recording is excellent, though the performance is certainly
down. I have learnt since that a new bass player, Tony Garnier, was used for this
show, it is very noticeable as many of the tracks are embrarrassingly loose. Second
track is another new/old mmber possibly called "Oh Liela". ''When Did You Leave
Heaven" is aired but really this is more of an historical event than a necessary
audio addition.
30.05.89 ISSHALLEN, HEL.5INKI, FINL\ND. [75.30]
This excellent quality recording is really the first from the tour that I'd
recoomend. Arranson is back for a fast and exciting set that includes lovely
renditions of 'Hollis Brown' 'Mobile' and again 'Like a Rolling Stone'. 'Maggies
Farm' has developed as the closer and now features a regular instrunental ending
that sounds very much like 'To Ramona' • Again the second song is an old/new mmber ,
this time 'C.Onfidential To Me'. A very good show though still marred by a poor
acoustic set.
-23-
03.06.89 RDS S'MONOS COURT, DUBLIN, IRELAND. [83.00]
Super quality recording again, though the crowd are a bit noisy. Again Garnier takes
Arransons place, though this time for a blistering set. A frantic 'Subterranean'
starts things off, followed by 'I'll Remember You'. We are soon treated to a racey
version of 'Every Grain of Sand' and tight reworkings of 'Hollis Brown' and
'Highway 61'. The acoustic set is better but still over-loose. It does feature a
tasty 'Gates of Eden', not to mention 'Hattie Carroll', though the standout surprise
has to be an electric 'Water is Wide' which is quite breathtaking.
04.06.89 RDS S'M-K)NDS COURT, DUBLIN, IRELAND. [83.00]
1he second Dublin show mar be as good audio quality but is certainly a slowing down
of the pace. A strange Bab(, Blue' is included that musically sounds more like
'Rolling Stone', an acoustic One Too Many Mornings' is quite pleasant, but the real
stunner of course is Bono joining in for 'Knockin' and a bizarre 'Maggies Farm' on
which he sings Charlies farm (Charles Haughey?) whilst Dylan plods on in the usual
manner.
06.06.89 S.N.E.C. GI.ASGOW, SCOTIAND. [72.00]
For me the weakest of the UK shows, (not helped by a merely acceptable ~uality audio
tape), even if we do get the first live version of 'Conpratulations • Again the
acoustic set is the ~orest part though the acoustic 'Times that starts the encores
is very worthwhile. Rolling Stone' seems to be establishing itself as the high spot
for many of the.shows too.
07.06.89 N.E.C. BIRMINGHAM, ENGI.AND. [80.00]
1he best show so far maybe?. And an excellent audio recording. 'Lonesome Town' is
the nights surprise, along with a bouncy version of 'Congratulations' which failed
to coax a watching G. Harrison from the wings. 'Big Girl Now' and 'John Brown' are
standout versions and the speei of the final 'Maggies Farm' is quite an experience•
. 08.06.89 WlliBLEY ARENA, WEMBLEY, LONDON, ENGI.AND. [85.00]
A nice quality tape of this well paced concert. A very effective 'When Did You Leave
Heaven I and a statley 'Memphis Blues I are again unbalanced br a rather rough
acoustic set. Of course 'Rolling Stone', and later, 'Maggies Farm save the day. As
well as George Harrison. Van Morrison and Olrissie Hynde were spotted backstage but
did not perform.
VIDEO:
04.06.89 RDS S'M-ONDS COURT, DUBLIN. [55.36]

near rioting crowd are really jostling the cameraman round. Sound is fine.

AUDIO:
09v10.61 GERDES FOLK CTIY [4.00]
A really worthwhile tape. the quality is almost as good as the well known Minnesota
Hotel tape. The performance is quite effective, and there is a new Dylan cover for
us. Dylan introduces Jack Elliott saying they will play1 "San Francisco Bay Blues"
whenfrustratingly the recording stops!. Obviously theres more out there somewhere.
02v03.62 CYN1HIA GOODING APAR1MENT TAPE [21.00]
Many years in caning, and I have to say not really worth the wait! Dylan runs
through 5 songs, all are familiar except for "(It Makes) a Long Time Man Feel Bad".
The select audience of Miss Gooding and friends seem only vaguely interested at
times. Someonejoins in a few of the songs. Quality is OK. Vocals are clear but
overall sound is a little dull.
04.12.88. BRIDGE BENEFIT -PA TAPE [36.00]
Reviewedhere before as an audience tape it is now revealed in very impressive PA
quality. The sound is mono which leads me to suspect that it has been taken from
that soon to emerge video?.
12.02.89 LOS ANGELES vrra nm GRATEFUL DFAD PA TAPE [55.00]
Not the complete set this, simply all the tracks that Dylan is on. The quality is
really excellent and you can hear that Bob was indeed attempting to join in on the
backing vocals on those earlier tracks. Nice show (especially if you like the Dead).
05.89. WIYY BALTIMJRE FM 'HEARTS OF FIRE PR(M)' [15.39]
A lengthy radio clip, (including interview sections with Flanaghan and Marquandand
various LP tracks), telling you all what a truly marvellous film Hearts of Fire is!
23.05.89. 923 KROCK I.ARRY SLOOMAN/KINKY FREm1AN INTERVIEW [60.00]
Excellent FN recording, called 'Knocking On Dylans Door', of a rather pointless
interview with these two old Rolling Thunder cronies. In fact this programne now
runs a regular Dylan hour each week, though my man on the spot informs me that most
are simply record playing sessions. We'll keep you posted.
06.89 LIVORNA, NEAR FLORENCE. [82.00] s
Excellent sound quality on this very lively show, which features "I Want You" and a 0
simply stunning '"TheMan In Me". Overall a very well perfonned concert.
B
10.06.89 STATENHAU.E, nm HAGUE [83.00]
This is a really superb recording of what was undoubtedly a terrific concert. The
still stilted acoustic tracks cannot dull the super electric numbers, especially "I
Don't Believe You" and the amazing ''Trail Of The Buffalo".
11.06.89. FORST NATIONAL, BRUSSEL.5. (90.00]
Reasonable quality this, though at times the band seem to melt into one overall
sound. Probably for this reason there are really few standout momentshere. ''Mama
You Been On My Mind" is aired acoustic, and ''When Did You Leave Heaven" gets another
electric outing, though for my moneythe Wembley version was better.
17.06/89 VEI.ADR(M), SAN SEBASITON. [86.00]
Now this gig sounds like it was fun! The quality is very good though at times the
very enthusiastic audience can be intrusive. Not that that impairs my listening
enjoyment. This is one of those gigs where the audience and artist are both
obviously enjoying themselves. No really unusual m.mbers here, though "In The v
Garden" does have an instrumental ending that sounds unccxnfortably close to ''You
-21-
Really Got Me"! even the acoustic tracks (especially ''ro Ramona") sound good.
01.07.89. CIVIC CEN1'RE ARENA PEORIA, ILLINOIS. [84.00] .
So how different is the US tour? If this very good recording of the first show is
anything to go by it should be quite exciting. 'Poncho and Leftie', a Townes Van
Zandt number I believe, opens the gig, sounding very 'Tweetennanish'. It is followed
by a superb "One Irish Rover" a number that Van the Man also perfonns. It is not all
change of course much of the usual fare is there, though now tighter somehow. A
superb "Pill Box Hat" in the latter part of the show is a real stand out. Not one to
miss this.
02.07.89. POPI.AR CREEK MUSIC IBFATRE, HOFFMAN ESTATE. [80.00]
The second show is very similar quality to the first from this tour, though there
the similarity ends. The gig opens with "Everybody's Movin"' which I felt sounded
better when performed in '86. "Absolutely Sweet Marie" follows and is executed
superbly, but when we get "Tears of Rage" the audience is stunned. A superb
perfonnance with all the fire and conviction our hero can muster. Even the acoustic
set is lifted, this time with ''Love Minus Zero".

VIDEO:
10.03.86 BUOOKAN UNCUT NEWS FOOTAGE [42.00]
Nice professional film though at times a little blurred. Mostly partial tracks of
course. TRACKS: Justine/Postively 4th Street/ Clean Cut Kid/I'll Remember You/l'rust
Yourself/Masters Of War/(Straight Into Darkness-Tom Petty)/Mr. Tambourine Man/Girl
From The North Country/(Rock n Roll Star-Petty)/(Refugee-Petty)/Rainy Day Women/Real
You At Last/Borderline/I And I/Like A Rolling Stone/In The Garden/Knockin'.
10.03.86 BUOOKAN INTERVIEW wrrn DYIAN AND PETIY [13.51]
A very funny interview to see this one, as Dylan conducts the entire event with a
hood and dark glasses on!. He is his usual evasive self, only Petty talks out. The
Dylan part is 6.10.
06.06.86. AMNES1Y INTERNATIONAL [7.56]
Professional film which really makes you realise what an effect Dylan puts into this
perfonnance, he really does fire on all cylinders here, and obviously knows it as he
seems to be constantly smiling. TRACKS: License To Kill/Shake A Hand.
09.06.86 SAN DIEGO UNClJI' FOOTAGE. [5.05]
More professional film, this time though Dylan seems rather stationary by '86
standards, still worthwhile of course. TRAa<S: Positively 4th Street/Clean Cut Kid.
07.86. IAN AND SYLVIA TRIBlITE APPEARANCE. [0.18]
Blink and you miss it I'm afraid, Dylan clip in which he tells us what great folks
Ian and Sylvia are.
19.02.87. PALAMINO CLUB JAM. [117.45]
This is a camera copy from NrSC and is therefore low in colour and definition. It
did surprise me a great deal though as my initial impression of 'more crap' was not
borne out. The cameraman pans the stage and when we get Dylan it is from the waist
up. Dylan does not join in till ''Matchbox" but then he looks like he has just
stepped out of the Lettennan Show! When the camera pans back of course it is not so
good. TRACKS: Leavin Trunk/Checkin Up On My Baby/Sweet Talkin Katy/Down The Road/
Your Gonna Need Somebody/Matchbox/Gone Gone Gone/Lucille/Crosscut Saw/Bacon Fat/
Jamning/Knock On Wood/In The Midnight Hour/Honey Don't/Blue Suede Shoes/Watching The
River Flow/Proud Mary/Johnny B Goode/Willie And The Hand Jive/Hey Bo Diddley/Peggy
Sue/Dizzy Miss Lizzy/Twist And Shout •.
12.07.87. GIANTS S!ADIUM, FAST RU'IHERFORD.- LINE FEED [62.15]
Very good quality as this is, (multi cameras angles, c'lose ups, PA sound), I'm
-22-
afraid it cannot disguise the rather 'thin' sound that is so evident thoughtout. If
you like the Dead you'll probably want this, if you don't ••• TRAa<s: Stuck Inside
Mobile/rcxnorrow is a long time/Highway 61 Revisited/Its All Over Now Baby Blue/
Ballad Of A Thin Man/John Brown/Wicked Messenger/Queen Jane Approx/Ou.mes Of
Freedom/Joey/All Along The Watchtower.
07 .09.88. FSSEX JUNCTION, BURLINGTON (71.00]
Stage left roostly waist up, though it does pan further back. This is a nice film of
the entire show. Sound is quite good for video camera. TRAa<s: Subterranean/Ballad O
A Thin Man/I Don't Believe You/Shelter From 1he Stonn/Youre A Big Girl Now/Highway
61/ro Ramona/One Too Many Mornings/Don't Think Twice/Knockin/Silvio/I Shall Be
Released/Like A Rolling Stone/It Ain't Me Babe/All Along 1he Watchtower.
10.09.88 STANHOPE, WATERLOO. [80.15]
This is my favourite '88 video so far, shot thighs up and stage left, though it does
get closer for the encores. It also features an unusual, 'rotating' effect on
''Watchtower" (you'll have to see it now won't you?) TRACXS: Subterranean/Its All
Over Now Baby Blue/Masters Of War/Ballad Of A Thin Man/Shelter From 1he Stonn/

It Ain t Me Babe/Maggies/Watchtower.
10/06.89. STATENHAU.E, '!HE HAGUE. [44.35]
This is a super waist up, straight on video. Nice soWld and very sharp focus. Really
a must to get, especiall1, as it is from such a good show. TRACXS: Most Likely/Hollis
Brown/Masters Of War/I 11 Be Youre Baby Tonight/Shelter From The Stonn/Highway
61/Mr. Tambourine Man/Don't Think Twice/Knockin/I Don't Believe you.
19.06.89. PAIATRUSSARDI, MIIAN. (84.30]
1he entire concert this, shot from the stands and to the acute left of the stage. In
fact it has the speaker colunn on the left of the picture most of the time. Dylan is
full length plus one other. Somtd mtfortmtately does distort a bit. TRACXS: Tangled

08 .06. 89 WF11BLEY ARENA, WEMBLEY, LONDON. [ 80. 00]
Shot from the left, sixth row, Dylan Waist up, lots of obscuring especially after
acoustic set. Sound is excellent though, due to security I am told there is no
picture during "In 1he Garden" and most of "Silvio" TRAO<S: Subterranean/When Did

••v••••w-•
After much soul searching I have decided that the time has arrived for me to cut
back greatly on my Dylan activities. 'Illere are many reasons, a few I can share:
I am constantly annoyed·and frustrated in my attempts to view many of the Dylan
fraternity as friends. I cannot understand the petty attitudes of some and I feel
now that I no longer want the aggravation that has come my way. I will therefore
only collect video that is of watchable quality and that does not require me to sell
my soul to obtain it. I shall probably get all audio tape, though I intend to limit
the input to a few a month. I shall get there, but more slowly than at present.
'Illis will necessitate obvious changes in Magnetic Movements as I can no longer
handle the input of material for this any more as I have always insisted on playing
and reviewing every tape personally, something that the more prestigious of our
colleagues fail to do. I believe that two good friends of mine will be taking over
the work, and I will give every assistance if required.
In the four years that I have run Magnetic Movements I have given away literally
hundreds of tapes to fans in an attempt to further interest in our hero. The more
sceptical out there like to think that I am paid for this service. I am not. 'Ille
most I have ever received is the blank tape.
I cannot say how things will develop. I can only hope that it will dawn on
others that there is more to life than Dylan and that no tape is worth the price of
a friendship. Dylan's art should be made available for all, not just a select few.
Enough of the heavy stuff. Now, with tears in my eyes, I turn to the last Magnetic
Movements •••
AUDIO:
12.03.78 BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA - PA TAPE [86.00]
Undoubtedly the find of the month. Superb quality PA Tape. Circulating copy features
the first and last 45 minutes of the show. The tracks imply that the reported date
is probably wrong, but, as it does not corres~nd with any known track lists is it
actually a missing one? eg 15th? but how many 78 PA Tapes have you got anyway?
27+28.05.84 REHERSAL TAPE, VERONA [90.00]
Mentioned everywhere of course is this super quality recording. A good third of the
tape is rehersals and false starts but there is some superb material here as well.
Many takes of 'Almost Done' and our first chance to hear 'Dirty Lie' (Yes it was
worth the wait). Certainly one for the collection.
13.06.89 LES ARENES, FREJUS, SOU'llIERN FRANCE [85.00]
I must say I had waited eagerly to hear this show and I was not disapointed. 'Ille
excellent quality enables us to get the full benefit of this lovely show. 'Ille tracks
I was looking out for of course, 'My True Lala' (One for the archive), and to hear
Dylan carefully pick at 'Peace In 'Ille Valley', Wonderful stuff.
19,06.89 PAI.ATRUSSARDI, Mii.AN [84.45]
'Illis is a nice recording of a fairly average gig. No real standout tracks though.
20.06.89 THE GRADINATE, R01E, ITALY [85.00]
A good quality recording marred only by a very noisy audience. 'Ille start of the
first track is missing but it does reveal what must have been quite a powerful gig.
21.06.89 STADIO LAMBERTI, CAVA DE TERRENI [85.00]
Quality and noices as above, but here we have, of course, the only European
recording of Townes Van Zandt's 'Poncho & Lefty'. Dylan does it well, adhearing
closely to Zandt's rendition.

-24-
09.07.89 BLOSSOM TIIFATER, CUYAHOGA FAUS, OHIO [85.00]
Quality here is quite good thoush the instruments at times get lost. Another rather
ordinary gig I'm afraid. ·.
11.07.89 SKYLINE SPORTS COMPLEX, HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANNIA [85.00]
Quality as above, but this is a much better show. 'Gotta Serve Somebody' is sung
with conviction and 'Maggies Farm' powers along.
12.07.89 ALLENIOWN FAIRGROUNDS, ALLENIOWN, PENNSYLVANNIA [80.00]
Quality is quite listenable but this is rather a ragged gig, with Dylan forgeting
even more words than usual.
13.07.89 PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE, MANNSFIELD, MASSACHUSEITS [85.00]
Quality as good as usual! Performance, I'm afraid is as bad as usual!!
15. 07. 89. SF.ASHORE PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE, OLD ORCHARD BEACH [ 7 5. 00]
Recording quality is so so. 1he vocals are forward but the rest is a bit of a mess.
1he playi~ leaves much to be desired too. There is a 1.20' false start to Love
Minus Zero. We qo get a nice 'Pill Box Hat' though, and the acoustic stuff is at
least partly saves by a workmanlike version of 'Two Soldiers',
16.07.89 LAKE COMPUNCE PARK, BRISTOL, CONNECTICUT [86.00]
Quality is again fine ·though here we have several oddities. A standard 'Nobody But
You' and 'Early Marni~ Rain' performed with savagery. 'I Believe In You' followed
by 'I Don't Believe You seems somehow wrong.
17.07.89 STANHOPE, WATERLOO [85.00]
Quality is fine and another unusual set. 'Early Morning Rain' sounds more together
here but the obvious highlight is a super 'She Belongs To Me'.
19.07.89 MERRIWFAnIER POST PAVIU.ION, COUJMBIA, MARYLAND [85.00]
Quality is ~uite good for this better than average show. A nice feature is the
standard(?) (I'll Be A) Legend In My Own Time'. Very prophetic!
20.07.89 BALI..YS GRAND HOTEL, ATLANTIC CI'IY [85.00]
Now this is more like it! Bob has the old fire back. Even ol' G.E. is allowed loose
on 'Pillbox Hat'. There are some· lyric problems but this time Bob tries to
improvise. 'Silvio' fares well at this game, and 'Lenny Bruce provides a pleasant
surprise. Quality, lest I forget, well, it's quite good you know.
21.07.89 GARDEN STATE IBEATRE, HOU1DEL, NEW JERSEY [80.00]
Not quite as good soundwise as the previous few. 1he show does feature some unusual
tracks though. 1he opener is 'Trouble', followed by 'One Irish Rover'. 1he stunner
though has to be an accoustic 'When Did You Leave Heaven'.
23.07.89 JONES BFAOI, LONG ISLAND [86.00]
~ain we are treated to 'Trouble' and 'Pledging My Time', and this time an acoustic
'Song to Woody'. 1he quality is very clear certainly up to recent high standards.
VIDED
04.12.89 BRII:X;E BENEFIT [23.00]
1his should be so nice and it's such a mess. This really was one of Dylan's finest
performaoc.es of recent times. 1he video is professional with PA sound and multi
camera angles but the transfer copy suffers very 'smudgy' colour and picture.
03.06.89 ROYAL DUBLIN SHO~ROUND, DUBLIN, IRELAND [35.00)
Waist up and very steady with excellent sound. 1his video, shot slightly stage
right, (most of the time), is arguably one of the best from the '89 shows so far. A
pity he is wearing that absurd hood throughout!.
-25-
TRACKS: Masters Of War/Simple Twist Of Fate/Hollis Brown/Barbara Allen/It Ain't Me
. Babe/To Ramona/Silvio/In the Garden/Rolling Stone/One Too Many Mornings/Heavens
Door/Maggies Farm.
04. 06. 89 ROYAL DUBLIN SHO~OUND, DUBLIN, IRELAND [ 65. 00]
Similar angle to above with similar sound, though this one is not quite so close.
Dylan is more or less knees up and\ screen. The last two tracks are with Bono.
TRACKS: Masters Of War/Simple Twist Of Fate/Hollis Brown/Barbara Allen/It Ain't Me
Babe/To Ramona/Silvio/In The Garden/Like A Rolling Stone/One Too Many
Mornings/knockin On Heavens door/Maggies Farm.
11.06.89 FORST NATIONAL, BRUSSELS [85.00]
Slightly stage right, Dylan from waist up when zoomed in. A very sharp video but the
filmers are having lots of trouble with the auto-focus which they resolve at times
by zooming out. Auto-focus problems aside though there is enough good close filming
to make this worthwhile. All songs from the concert are covered
11.06.89 FORST NATIONAL, BRUSSELS (85.00]
Another video from the same show. Shot straight on it gets progressively closer and
by the end it is mid-chest up and \ screen. Unfortunatly it suffers badly from
obscuring. Sound is quite good. ·
TRACKS: Gates Of Eden/Girl From The North Country/Mr Tambourine Man/Silvio/When Did
You Leave Heaven/I Shall Be Released/Rolling Stone/Hattie Carroll/Maggies Farm.
16.06.89 SPORTS PAIACE, MADRID [43.00]
Face on, more or less, this very sharp video shows Dylan knees up and\ screen. The
sound is a little harsh at times. Most intriguing feature is during 'Released' when
Bob Spitz - sorry, I mean spits. It could be a new security measure he's practising
- I mean we're talking litres here. See it and believe it!
TRACKS: Simple Twist/Stuck Inside of Mobile/Highway 61/Song To Woody/ Ponchartrain/
Tambourine Man/Silvio/I Shall Be Released/Rolling Stone/Times/ Watchtower.
19.06.89 PAIATRUSSARDI, MILAN, ITALY [78.00]
Almost straight on with Dylan \ screen and nearly full length. The sound is
listenable but a trifle harsh. All songs from the concert are covered.
19.06.89 PAIATRUSSARDI, MILAN, ITALY [78.00]
Another video from the same show and once again almost straight on but the taper has
got closer as Dylan is mid thighs up with one other. Tile sound is still a little
harsh but it's an improvement. Again all songs are featured.
30.07.89 CIVIC CENTRE ARENA, 0'11'a'7A, ONTARIO [92.46]
Shot slightly stage left, Dylan plus one other, full length and better than ;;
screen. Picture is a times rather dark, but the sound is quite listenable. All songs
from the concert are covered.
A FINAL NOTE TO MY SUCCESSORS:
Don't let it get you down when everyone pulls your labours apart. Tcy to shrug
off the various mind games that many will want to force you to play in---arder to
retain their friendship.
Try to be honest to your readers, always be honest to yourself, and when you
finally feel you've had enough, look for a few close friends who have so far been
warmed by the pressures and not burned. Pass the mantle on to them, then breath a
sigh of relief.
And remember what Robbie says in The Last Waltz:
"It's a goddamn impossible way of life."

CHRIS Co

like, you know, maybe six or eight songs for it. Then it becomes more a process of
well what do we put with these eight songs that we got 'er comin' up. And some songs
then either don't get cut or some songs kinda did get cut but we, you know, need to
be done again and that don't really fit the picture of what's evolved on its own,
that happens." "Somebody actually told me (laughs) that someone has got a gig goin'
'round sequencing records. That's good to know in case you get a record and you
don't know what to do with the songs. (laughs) They got experts for everything."
'lhe Book:
"My songs don't really have that much of a hook line. They sorta just bulldoze
their way through on just rhythm and vocal phrasing and content. When you start
putting a hook into the song and making it so super important then, you know, you're
goin' to get a song that's not goin' to really. I mean there's enough things that
you already have to pay attention to, like the song itself and at the end after you
go out and do them, it's because, 'er a matter of how long the song is gonna last,
and how long its gonna mean anything, so, if you got that which you have to do, then
besides that putting in a real strong hook; there are people who do it, you know,
Elton John does it quite regularly. You know that with his songs that, everyone of
them has strong kinda chorus lines to· it, you know, because that's what people
remember."
lleal Live:
"We'll fit those new songs, some of the new songs into my twinin' department,
but which ones they'll be that remains to be seen also. They have to work in terms
of what my total thing is. There's a lot of them that work live, you know, we try
and stick with those, as long as they work live there's no sense to rock that boat
really."

HOUBTAilf VIEW 5 August 1986 PA Tape 180'
Another long rumoured 186 PA tape finally shows up and, as expected, the quality is
pretty special. Although almost a full three hours the Dylan content is unfortunatly
incomplete with a fair lump of the second full band set missing.
BRISTOL 4 September 1988 FK Broadcast 50'
An excellent quality recording of 'Lostrib 1988', aired earlier this year by WHCN
Hartford. In fact it is a jumbled and inexplicably edited assortment from the
concer~. Unfortunatly the circulating tape is missing the first two broadcast songs,
Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues and Had A Dream About You Baby and starts partway through
the third. I am reliably informed that a complete recording does exist. Order and
content as follows: Highway 61 Revisited/Simple Twist Of Fate/Ballad Of A Thin Man/
Don't Think Twice/Knockin' On Heavens Door/Subterranean Homesick Blues/I Don't
Believe You/Silvio/Like A Rolling Stone/Maggies Farm
All those months ago, lest you forget, there was a tour of Europe:
SPORTSPALACE, BARCELONA 16 June 1989 Audience 85 •
A fairly standard set here, but you do get the only European outing of Absolutely
Sweet Marie. Only wish he'd played it at one of the UK gigs.

-47-
FESTIVAL11 ISTABBUL 24 June 1989 Audience 90'
Several grades down on the usual '89 tour quality and the tape ends as One Too Many
Mornings starts so the last four songs are missing, but it does feature some unusual
numbers. Second song in is a one-off which sounds as if it should be called Make Me
Believe. The show also includes the only European outing for Leopard Skin Pill Box
Hat and rare appearances for The Water Is Wide and Mamma You Been On My Mind.
HATIOKALSTADIUM11 PATRAS 26 June 1989 Audience 90'
A most enjoyable show features not only the concert debut of Tears Of Rage but also
Two Soldiers, from last years tour, returns to the acoustic set.
AElC STADIUM11 ATHENS 28 June 1989 Audience 100'
The last night from Europe and another fine concert in great quality. Acoustic Every
Grain Of Sand and Lakes Of Pontchartrain both in tonight and an outing for Hank
wi'lliams' House Of Gold. Encores feature Dylan and Van Morrison duetting, well sort
of, on Vans Crazy Love and It Stoned Me.

and In The Pines but also St Augustine and Tom Thumbs Blues.
MEADOWBROO~ MUSIC CENTRE, ROCHESTER 5 July 1989 Audience 90'
Another one from the early part of the tour. Lonesome Town takes the "surprise slot"
tonight but, other than another great version of Van the Man's One Irish Rover, it's
pretty standard fare for this tour.
MEADOWBROO~ MUSIC CENTRE, ROCHESTER 6 July 1989 Audience 80'
A concert I had really been looking forward to hearing turns out to be a bit of a
let down. After some great versions of Tomorrow Is A Long Time in 1987, tonights
performance is definately below par. On the other hand the rendition of Van's And It
Stoned Me is a lot better than I had expected.
DEER CREEKMUSIC CENTER, NOBLESVILLE 8 July 1989 Audience 70'
The last of those early US shows to turn up. Another interesting set includes I
Don't Believe You, Shot Of Love, and, back from October 1988, Wagoneers Lad.
FINGERS LAlCE ARTS CENTRE, CANANDAIGUA 25 July 1989 Audience 75'
You Don't Know Me makes the "surprise slot" and Confidential makes a return after
its outing at Helsinki. An acoustic rendition of Baby Blue and nice too to hear
'Barbara Allen' once again
PERFORMING ARTS CENTER11 SARATOGA SPRINGS 26 July 1989 - Audience 90'
Rainy Day Women as a surprise opener Ls followed by Pretty Peggy-0. Legend In My
Time returns and an acoustic When Did You Leave Heaven both feature in an
interesting show that is, dare I say it, certainly above par quality wise.
CIVIC ARENA, PITTSBURG: 28 July 1989 Audience 85'
Rainy Day Women opens again and Mama You Been On My Mind and Boots Of Spanish
Leather both make fairly rare appearances in the solo spot.
l:INGSWOOD11 VAUGHAN: 29 July 1989 Audience 75'
An opening combination of Trouble, Early Morning Rain, Tears Of Rage and I Don It
Believe You make for another essential tape. My True La-La earns another airing as
does a rare, for 1989, Simple Twist Of Fate.
CIVIC CENTER ARENA, OTTAWA 30 July 1989 Audience 95'
Tonights offerings include Pretty Peggy-0 as second song in and an early try-out for
what is later to become a regular feature, It Takes A ~ot To Laugh.
FESTIVAL DE LANOUDIERE, JOLLIET: 31 July 1989 Audience 75'
Apart from Don't Pity Me which is back as second song, and another go at One Irish
Rover, there are no real surprises here.

-48-
T
WELSH AUDITORIUM,GRAND RAPIDS: 5 August 1989 Audience 95'
Although no huge surprises it is another interesting show and it welcones back
Absolutely Sweet Marie, You're 'A Big Girl Now, The Man In Me, Watching The R;ver
Flow, Man Of Constant Sorrow and You Don't Know Me. It's also the first bugge~ from
the tour that won't fit onto a C90!
COOPER STADIUM, COLUMBUS 6 August 1989 Audience 85'
John Brown, an acoustic To Ramona, and Confidential To You are included in an
otherwise fairly predictable set.
THE MORY, ST.LOUIS 9 August 1989 Audience 85'
I'm In The Mood For Love is again in the set tonight, but this time it's the second
song in and it's an electric version. Watching The River Flow is back along with the
first rendition of Heart Of Mine I can remember for a long while.
KING'S DOKllllOII AMUSEMENT PARK, DOSWELL 12 August 1989 Audience 90'
Lonesome Town, Tomorrow Is A Long Time, and an acoustic Two Soldiers. Otherwise
nothing out of the ordinary. Having said that a perfectly reasonable tape is spoilt
by what sounds like a firework display going on in the background.
THE PALADIUM,CIIAR].OTTE 13 August 1989 Audience 95'
Sunday night at the Charlotte Paladium and all we are missing is Bruce Forsyth. On
the other hand we do get Pretty Peggy-0 and an acoustic Man Of Sorrow.
CHASTAlll PARK AMPHITHEATRE,ATLANTA 16 August 1989 Audience 90'
Trouble is back in favour as the opener. An interesting show continues with Trail Of
The Buffalo, Queen Jane Approximately and Lakes of Pontchartrain.
ZOO AMPHITHEATER,OKLAHOMA CITY 23 August 1989 Audience 90'
In recognition of the venue we get Man Gave Names To All The Animals in the opening
set. The only other unexpected numbers are John Brown and Simple Twist Of Fate.
THE SOMKIT, HOUSTOII 26 August 1989 Audience 95'
The instrumental opener and Positively 4th Street both get their 1989 debuts
tonight. I'll Be Your Baby Tonight is back in the first set after a few weeks away.
The second electric set opens with More And More and Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat.
STARPLEX AMPITHEATR.E, DALLAS: 27 August 1989 Audience 85'
A very sharp tape of this concert has now arrived, the first tape to circulate
having speed problems with the opening tracks. Second song slot goes to Positively
4th Street. Rank Strangers gets a semi-acoustic treatment while the second electric
set starts interestingly with You Don't Know Me, and It Takes A Lot To Laugh.
FIDDLERS GREER, ENGLEWOOD 31 August 1989 Audience 100'
The shows certainly seem to be getting longer and the instrumental opener is
becoming a regular too. Another decent recording features an acoustic To Ramona and
the enjoyable semi-acoustic Rank Strangers.
PARX WEST, PARK CITY 1 September 1989 Audience 120'
A different instrumental opens what threatens to be the longest show of the tour.
Man Gave Names, The Man In Me and Queen Jane Approximately are all back in favour.
GREI% THEATER, BERKELEY 3 September 1989 Audience 1051
Like the later 1988 shows this ones a bit longer than we've come to expect and has
plenty of surprises too. An instrumental opener is followed by Positively 4th Street
and The Harder They Come. Baby Let Me Follow you Down and a semi-acoustic Rank
Strangers open and close the six song acoustic set. Add to all that It Takes A Lot
To Laugh and Queen Jane Approximately and you end up with a pretty essential show.
PACIFIC AMPHITHEATER,COSTA MESA 8 September 1989 Audience 95'
Great show and great quality recording. Most Likely returns as opener for the first
set which is made up of entirely mid-sixties compositions. Baby Let Me Follow You
Down, Rank Strangers, and It Takes A Lot To Laugh are all back again tonight too.
GREll THEATER, LOS AIIGELES 9 September 1989 Audience 95'
Mid-sixties songs dominate the proceedings yet again with Visions Of Johanna and
Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat opening the show. The Man In Me returns along with It
-49-
Takes A Lot To Laugh and Queen Jane Approximately. Great quality too.
GREm THEATER. LOS AllCELES 10 Septeaber 1989 Audience 95'
The final show before the month or so off. Pretty much as the previous two nights
though Gotta Serve Somebody and In The Garden are in to represent the '80s. No
orizes for guessing the quality

BE.ACOR THEATER. BEV YOll 10 October 1989 Audience 90'
The tape I have has several songs cut and misses the final number altogether. I'm
sure a more complete recording will turn up. Three numbers from Oh Mercy - What Good
Am I, Everything Is Broken, and Most Of The Time. This is, I believe, the show
reviewed in The Times and Melody Maker. Certainly sounds a bad tempered affair.
BE.ACOR THEATER. BEV YOll 11 October 1989 Audience 85'
Seeing The Real You At Last is the surprise opener with Dead Man Dead Man and My
Back Pages also gracing the first set. Hard Rain and Lakes Of Ponchartrain are back
in the acoustic set too. The same three Mercy tracks that we had the night before.
Though the concert is a little shorter it is enjoyable nontheless though some of the
extended instrumental endings are starting to wear a little.
BE.ACOB THEATER. BEV YOll 12 October 1989 Audience 85'
Back in the set list tonight are I Don't Believe You, Man Of Peace and Queen Jane.
The three Mercy songs also make their appearance.
BE.ACOR THEATER. BEV YOll 13 October 1989 Audience 951
Man Of Peace and Precious Memories both feature in the first set. The acoustic set
includes Song To Woody and Hattie Carroll. Man In A Long Black Coat makes it's debut
in place of Most Of The Time. Judging by the audience reaction and comments this is
the night Dylan closed the show by disappearing into the audience during Leopard
Skin Pill Box Hat.
TOllER THEATER, UPPER DARBY 15 October 1989 Audience 100'
When someone told me he had opened a show with To Be Alone With You, I thought it
was a wind-up. Well here it is. No other surprises of that magnitude but we do get
Man In A Long Black Coat, Man Of Peace and Tears Of Rage straight afterwards. The
acoustic set includes Two Slodiers.
TOWER THEATER, UPPER DARBY 16 October 1989 Audience 90'
Things settle down a bit after last nights performance and there are no big shocks,
though The Man In Me is back in. Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat closes the show but there
is no evidence to suggest he ventures into the audience again.
MID HUDSOB ARENA, POUGHlCEEPSIE20 October 1989 Audience 90'
A very different show to those at the Beacon, and a great concert too. Times and
Absolutely Sweet Marie get things going before going back to a more -pr ed i.c t ab Le set
list but the surprises are not over. A~ter about an hour Dylan does two numbers at
the piano, When You Gonna Wake Up and Ring Them Bells. Then, back on guitar, we get
Tears Of Rage and Everybodys Movin'.
UNIVERSITYOF RHODE ISLABD, SOUTH XINGSTOB 22 October 1989 Audience 90'
Trouble, Man In A Long Black Coat, and John Brown make up the unusual start to this
show after which things become more predictable. Sadly no piano numbers on this one.
THE OPERAHOUSE, BOSTOB 24 October 1989 Audience 90'
Man Of Peace, I Believe In You and Forever Young are all back in the set tonight.
Otherwise it's pretty much what we've come to expect.
THE OPERAHOUSE, BOSTON 25 October 1989 Audience 90'
To Be Alone With You opens another sixties dominated show. Man In A Long Black Coat,
Everything ls Broken and Most Of The Time make up tonights Oh Mercy trilogy. The
acoustic Two Soldiers is becoming a regular again.
HOUSTOB FIELDHOUSE. TROY 27 October 1989 Audience, 110'
These shows are getting better and here is another fine recording of a fine show.
Gotta Serve Somebody, with more than the odd lyric change, kicks off a great opening
-50-
set that also includes Lenny Bruce and I'll Be Your Baby Tonight. The second band s
set standouts feature It Takes A Lot To Laugh and My Back Pages. Encores include a
piano based Disease Of Conceit~

CLOSE-UP INTERVIEW WHEW 31 October 1989 FM recording 105' D
Don't get too excited, t hough listed at almost two hours the majority of the 'c
broadcast consists of official tracks intermingled with Cdmeos from cohorts such as
Robbie Robertson, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Jim Keltner, Daniel Lanois and
various assorted Wilburys and Deadmen. Interview snippets from our man are scattered
in between and, as the whole thing has been largely done as a plug for 'Oh Mercy', a
lot of the chat concerns that platter, but you do get a lot of ground covered and he
is surprisingly talkative. [A transcript of Dylans comments can be found elsewhere

Shot from Dylan's extreme left. When Dylan is full length he fills approximatly % of
the screen. Dark, especially during the acoustic sets, and we sometimes get an
amazing headless Dylan, though, as he's wearing that ridiculous hood and we can't
see his face anyway, maybe it isn't too important. Usually steady with a clear view.

I enjoyed thi~ film, not because it's particularly close, (Dylan is about~ screen
and the picture is sometimes dark), but because it's steady and has a clear view -
two attributes that are often forgotten in attempts to get the camera onstage. G.E.
Smith is having a great time, and Eileen Aroon is wonderful.

Still experimenting with the camera, the film has a few nice moments but generally
Dylan is confined to the bottom left hand corner of the screen leaving an active

JOHN GREEN.

Thankfully it's been slightly less hectic this time round, I suppose the
Christmas and New Year break is largely to blame. Still, I managed to get a few new
bits together all the same. The 1989 American tour continues to dominate, but there
are a few earlier tapes to give me something different to listen to and you
something different to read about. So without further ado •••

URDOWNVKR1JE - Late 1962 6 ains


A poor quality, three song audience tape from an unknown venue. I heard about this
one some time ago and I'm surprised it has taken so long to get into circulation,
particularly when it has so little going for it. Not only is it rough quality but
the audience talks constantly and two of the three songs are cut!
SPORTSPALACE, IIADRID - 15 .June 1989 80 ains
Another great European concert in the usual high quality. Interesting show includes
the only European showings of It Takes A Lot To Laugh and Song To Woody. The
surprise second song slot is occupied by the same House Of Gold/Silver and Gold that
was performed in Athens. The late arrival of this one means that, with the exception
of the end of the Istanbul show, the whole of the European leg is now circulating.
PARC DE scssm, PARIS - 1 July 1984 PA Tape 75 ains
Remember that incomplete "rough mix" PA tape that circulated from this show some
years ago? Well this is more of the same. Not a lot more but definitely more. What
you get here is essentially one extra track, Every Grain Of · Sand. The tape I've
heard this time though does follows the proper order of the actual concert from
Simple Twist Of Fate right through to the end.
VILBURY "VOU: TAPE" - Spring 1988 25 ains
Curious little number features six songs from the Volume 1 album all in a state
prior to being got at by Jeff Lynne. A few minor lyrical differences and a lot less
instrumentation than on the released versions with t.he odd between song "studio
banter" included too. Shame Tweeter and the Monkeyman is not on the tape. Hardly a
major new find but interesting all the same.
LAIX COIIPOUBCE FESTIVAL P~, BRISTOL - 4 Septeaber 1988 PA Tape 80 ains
A few months back I listed an FM radio broadcast featuring an unusually edited 50
minutes from this very concert. Well as expected the whole show is now doing the
rounds as an exceptionally fine quality PA tape. The recording quality alone
recommends this one but as it ain't a half bad show too pass at your peril.

Well that's enough of the "variety" for this month. Right lets get back to that
seemingly never ending stream of 1989 tour tapes. Gotta get this lot out of the way
before the next tour starts up again!

DABE COUNTY COLISEOK, IIADISOR - 4 August 1989 loo.ins


Tonight's the night of the power failure and during the fourth song the audience get
treated to an incredibly boring twenty-odd minute, predominantly percussion,
instrumental. Definatly one to fast forward through. Steve Earle's Nobody But You
gets in again, as do Lakes Of Pontchartrain and Pretty Peggy-0.
RIVERBEND, CIRCIRRATI - 10 August 1989 90 ains
Absolutely Sweet Marie and Watching The River Flow are back in the set tonight. I'm
In The Mood For Love gets its final outing, this time with the band.
FREEDOM HALL, LOUISVILLE - 18 August 1989 95 ains
Another tape in the almost standard very good sound quality. With the exception of
an acoustic She Belongs To Me nothing out of the ordinary tonight though.
ILLINOIS STATE FAIR GRARDSTAND, SPRIRGFIELD - 19 August 1989 100 ains
Queen Jane Approximately and covers of The Harder Thev Come and One Irish Rover in
again tonight. This show is more unusual for what it omits rather than what it
-22-
includes. Following the inevitable Like A Rolling Stone he obviously decides its
time for an early night and finishes with an encore of Mr Tambourine Man and. nothing
else. Saves us from another Magg~es Farm I suppose.
STARWOOD AIIPIIITHEATER, KA.SIIVILLE - 20 August 1989 95 ains
A show omitted from most lists I've seen so I wasn't aware that I needed this one
until the tape showed up. Quite an interesting concert that includes The Harder They
Come and acoustic versions of Man Of Constant Sorrow and To Ramona.
S.ARDSTO'RE AIIPIIITHEATER, BOHRER SPRINGS - 22 August 1989 100 ains
With the exceptions of The Harder They Come and an acoustic Trail Of The Buffalo
much of what you would expect.
~IEFKR UNO I.AllFROBT ARKHA, BEV ORLEANS - 25 August 1989 90 ainutes
This is of course the night when E Thang first opened the show and not at Houston as
stated last time. Positively 4th Street, It Takes A Lot To Laugh and a semi-acoustic
Rank Strangers all standards for late August.
PAB AMERICAN CENTER, LAS CRUCES - 29 August 1989 115 ains
Unique to this concert an instrumental El Paso both opens and closes this longer
than usual show. Rare outing for Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues too.
BEW YOll11 SOUBDCHEC% - 10 October 1989 30 ains
BEW Y0ll11 SOUBDCHECK - 12 October 1989 35 mi.ns
BEW YOll, SOUBDCIIE(% - 13 October 1989 15 ains
UPPER DARBY, SOUBDCHECK - 15 October 1989 40 ains
A few street recordings featuring the band going through their paces prior to the
shows. Little evidence to suggest Dylan is on the first one but there are some
mumbled vocals on the others and Long Black Coat is clearly discernable on the 15th.
The odd harmonica or piano burst just might be you know who too. I have only managed
to listen to these rather half-heartedly and am s t i 11 less than 100% sure. Usual
soundcheck quality with delights like passing cars. Weirdest part features Dylan
chatting with a "fan". Upper Darby 1988 soundcheck they aint. For Monster Raving
Loony Nutter Completist Bastards only.
CONSTITUTION HALL, WASHINGTON - 17 October 1989 85 ains
To Be Alone With You opens again. Barabara Allen returns as does Precious Memories.
Unusually for this tour the tape I have heard from this show could hardly be
described as anything more than rough and leaves quite a bit to be desired. Chances
are a better copy will surface.
CONSTITUTION HALL, WASHINGTON - 18 October 1989 90 mins
Quality much more like it on this one. I Beleive In You, One Irish Rover and Silvio
all back for the only times in the second leg.
THE OPERA HOUSE, BOSTON - 23 October 1989 80 ains
Last of the Boston trio to show up, as the with the others a more than decent
quality tape. Trouble opens and My Back Pages returns in the opening set. The usual
Oh Mercy trilogy and an acoustic Waggoners Lad also feature in a pleasant if
unexceptional show~
ARIE CROWN THEATRE, CHICAGO - 31 October 1989 100 ains
Yet another very good recording starts with I Want You. The first set also includes
Rainy Day Women and I'll Be Your Baby Tonight. All the Oh Mercy songs, five of them,
are relegated to the second half of the show.
HILL AUDITORIUM, ABB ARBOUR - l Boveaber 1989 90 mins
One of my favourites from this tour. Another very good quality tape of a really fine
show. Surprise opener of an electric Dont Think Twice. The acoustic set includes a
very pleasant version of Visions Of Johanna and the second half features no less
than five numbers from Oh Mercy.
STATE THEATER, CLEVELAND - 2 Boveaber 1989 90 ains
Another good show with Dylan in fine voice, tonights surprise opener is Shot Of
Love. Oh Mercy again gets a major portion of the second band set with five songs.

- 23-
FOX TIIEATEll9 ATLABTA - 10 Bovember 1989 105 ains
To Be Alone With You returns as the opener and it's good to have Man Of Peace and It
Takes A Lot To Laugh back in the set. Lay Lady Lay also featured and a strong
acoustic set ends with Dark As A Dungeon. Man In A Long Black Coat gets rested
tonight but still four from that album.
PERFORIIIBG ARTS CENTRE. TAMPA - 14 Boveaber 1989 115 ainutes
Stuck Inside of Mobile opens the first set. Following the acoustic set you then get
the Oh Mercy three back to back. For the encores Roger McGuinn joins the band and
duets on Knockin On Heavens Door. McGuinn even warrants an introduction!
PERFORIIIBG ARTS CERTRE9 TAMPA - 15 Noveaber 1989 100 ainutes
The last show of the tour sees Lay Lady Lay and the piano backed Disease Of Conceit
in the set. McGuinn is again present this evening and as the tour is over Dylan at
last remembers to introduce the whole band •

Don't know what it is about Holland, but every year we get more good films from
there than anywhere else. And they all seem to be shot from the same spot. This is
the third so far from this show, and they're all very acceptable. Close, Dylan from
waist up fills 3/4 of the screen, and with a mostly clear view. A little trouble
with the focus at first, but this soon clears. The sound is above average for
audience video. I could write a lot about Dylans excellent performance, definitely a
show I wish I'd gone to, but as for the film, it's one to get.

Too distant and dark to be of any real interest, though the view of the stage is
usually clear and steady. Another problem, during the acoustic sets, is the audience
insisting on keeping up a continual noisy chatter.
A couple of other items have also emerged, the first and most interesting being
a clip of about 30 seconds of Bob and Sara walking together in an airport, getting
on an airport bus and then onto a plane. I'm fairly certain that it is when Dylan
was leaving Heathrow two days after the I.O.W. performance, on his way back to the
States. He's wearing a leathP.r jacket and carrying a briefcase, looking the part of
a businessman rather than a rock star.
· The other item is from London 1978, and is apparently news footage. The clip is
longer than I have seen before, containing more scenes of ticket queues and pre-
concert crowds, but the concert footage has been around before.

PALACE THEATRE. WATERBURY - 11 November 1975 PA Tape 165 Iii.us
This months favourite find - a very pleasant, if a little hissy, PA Tape from the
Rolling Thunder tour of 1975. Contains most of the opening sets, including Stoner's
version of 'Catfish' and the Baez/McGuinn break at half time. Dylan's set is missing
the opening two numbers but is otherwise complete.
BAllJtlET ISLA11D9 ST PAUL - 3 August 1989 90 ains
At last the missing August shows have surfaced. Quality on this one is not bad but
not up to the usual standard. The only unusual inclusion setwise is 'Forever Young'.
CBASTAIII PAll AMPBITIIEATRE9 ATLANTA - 16 August 1989 100 Iii.us
The last of the missing August shows to do the rounds. Its early sixties night and
'Pretty Peggy-01 and 'Man Of Constant Sorrow' both feature.
COUNTY BOWL9 SARTA BAR.BARA - 5 September 1989 105 ains
The instrumental opener goes straight into Positively 4th Street. The first set also
features 'Forever Young' and 'The Man In Me' and following on from the semi-acoustic
'Rank Strangers', 'When Did You Leave Heaven' gets a rare outing.
BER LIGHT GYIINASIUM9 ITHACA - 29 October 1989 80 ains
The last of the October shows to do the rounds. 'Positively 4th Street' starts an
interesting opening set which also features 'Lay Lady Lay' and 'I'll Be Your Baby
Tonight'. Immediately following the acoustic set four Oh Mercy numbers back to back
and a piano backed 'Disease Of Conceit' features in the encores.
URIV OF PENBSYLVANRIA. INDIANA - 4 Hovember 1989 90 ains
Another of the November stragglers located. Tonight 'Subterranean' is back as opener
after a lengthy absence. Also in this set are 'My Back ·Pages', 'Simple Twist Of
Fate', an acoustic 'Two Soldiers·' and at the piano 'Disease Of Conceit'.
RORFOLI: - 7 Rovember 1989 35 ains
Only the opening seven numbers on the circulating tape I'm afraid but thankfully in
reasonable quality and containing the most important song from this show - the only
performance, so far, of 'Coat Of Many Colours'.
SUNlllSE MUSICAL THEATRE. MIAMI - 12 Hovember 1989 95 Iii.us
The Miami shows finally turn up and the first night sees I Want You opening a fairly
uneventful concert. 'My Back Pages', 'Man Of Peace' & 'Tears Of Rage' are all back.
SUNRISE MUSICAL THEATRE. MIAMI - 13 November 1989 85 mins
The night of the "Longtime Golden-Haired Stripper Onstage". The crowd go predictably
wild as she appears during the acoustic 'Tangled Up In Blue'. Dylan continues
regardless. 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' back as opener after quite a long absence.
RECREATION HALL. PENH STATE COLLEGE - 14 January 1990 100 mins
The second of those unusual January warm-up dates. Surprisingly no acoustic set
tonight but in i~'s place we are treated to 'One More Cup Of Coffee', 'Tight
Connection', 'I've Been All Around This World', 'Wiggle Wiggle',' Lenny Bruce', the
first ever live You Angel You, and a couple of Oh Mercy numbers not performed on
last years tour, 'Political World' and 'What Was It You Wanted'.
KcCARTER THEATRE. PRINCETON - 15 January 1990 105 ains
Another very unusual show is opened by 'Watching The River Flow' and immediately
followed by a five song acoustic set. Plenty of highlights including 'I Believe In
You, Seeing The Real You' and 'Tight Connection To My Heart'. Show finishes off with
'I've Been All Over The World' and 'Like A Rolling Stone but no encores. A very
different show to anything from last year and a lot of new arrangements too.
That's all from the US tours this time. Still a few shows from as far back as
September last year which for some unknown reason fail to circulate freely. Fairly
predictable I suppose but the whole of the European tour is about in more than
acceptable quality. Right then lets get those Paris and London shows out of the way.
-47-
GRAB» REX THEATRE, PARIS - 29 January 1990 100 ains
After an absence of less than eight months its just like last spring as Subterranean
Homesick Blues' opens the tour. Things quickly change though with 'Lay Lady Lay' and
'Seeing The Real You' in the first set. Nothing from Oh Mercy for over an hour when
the new single, 'Political World', gets a plug. It must be France, his last hit
there, Man Gave Names', is also included.
I
GRAB» REX THEATRE, PARIS - 30 January 1990 100 ains
'I Believe In You', 'Where Teardrops Fall' and 'What Was It You Wanted' all feature
tonight, as do 'Man In A Long Black Coat' and 'Tight Connection'. Like last night
the encores include a semi-acoustic 'Forever Young'.
GRARD REX THEATRE, PARIS - 31 January 1990 100 ains
To Be Alone With You is back as opener. Also in the set for this one are 'John
Brown', 'Shelter From The Storm', 'Lay Lady Lay' and 'I'll Remember You'.
GRAB» REX THEATRE, PARIS - 1 February 1990 100 ains
Last night in Paris and probably the most interesting of the four shows. Tonight
sees the tours first 'It Takes A Lot To Laugh' and the only performances of 'Lenny
Bruce', 'Man Of Peace', 'Tears Of Rage', 'Visions Of Johanna' and 'Barbara Allen'.
If you are only going to get one of the Paris tapes then this is the one to get.
HAMMERSMITH
ODEOR, LONDON - 3 February 1990 100 ains
Opening night at the Odeon features a lot of numbers I'm sure that we all expected.
A few surprises too with an opening of 'Stuck Inside Of Mobile', 'Pretty Peggy-01
and 'Tight Connection'. Stand out track for me is a real rocking version of & 'It
Takes A Lot To Laugh'. In common with all the London shows we get treated to plenty
of Thanguuuus but not too much other chat.
HAMMERSMITH
ODEOR, LONDON - 4 February 1990 100 ains
Tonight we have to wait until the second number before the changes start coming with
'One More Cup Of Coffee' and 'My Back Pages'. The acoustic set includes 'Boots Of
Spanish Leather' and 'Man Of Constant Sorrow'. The second band set gets a real
shake-up with 'What Good Am I', 'Seeing The Real You', 'Simple Twist Of Fate' and
another rocking version of 'It Takes A Lot To Laugh'.
HAMMERSMITH
ODEOB, LONDON - 5 February 1990 100 ains
Things continue to change at an alarming rate with 'Watching The River Flow' and
'Just Like A Woman' kicking off tonights offerings. 'Tight Connection' is back in
the set as is the acoustic 'Gates Of Eden'. 'Lay Lady Lay opens the second band set
which again features a great 'It Takes A lot To Laugh'.
HAMMERSMITH
ODEON, LONDON - 6 February 1990 90 ains
Tonight starts with a fairly subdued 'Most Likely You Go Your Way' before things
pick up with 'I Don't ·Believe You' and 'Ballad Of Hollis Brown'. 'The real treats at
this show are in the acoustic sets with 'Song To Woody' and a blistering semi-
acoustic 'Heavens Door' at mid show and 'Dark As A Dungeon' as first encore.
IIAMKERSMITHODEON, LONDON - 7 February 1990 100 ains
'To Be Alone With You' and 'Most Of The Time' are first on tonight. Definitely a
'Nashville Skyline' flavour tonight with 'I'll Be Your Baby Tonight' and, for the
first time in almost fourteen years, 'Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You'.
Acoustic set features 'Mama You Been On My Mind' and a hesitant semi-acoustic
'Forever Young'.
IIAMKKRSMITHODEON, LONDON - 8 February 1990 105 ains
Last night and its party night. Despite the already drastic set changes seen this
week he still manages to come up with twelve songs new to the mini-residency.
Amongst these we get 'Absolutely Sweet Marie', 'Positively 4th Street', 'Pledging My
Time' and 'You Angel You' in the opening set. 'To Ramona' and 'She Belongs To Me'
grace the acoustic set which is immediately followed by, the sole number at the
previously redundant piano, 'Disease Of Conceit' •. Surprises don It end there with
I'll' Remember You', 'Where Teardrops Fall' and ''Every Grain Of Sand' all done
before the inevitable 'Rolling Stone'. An extra encore also included tonight, the
apt, 'I've Been All Around This World'. All in all some show!

MEL G.

First we have a few more 1989 films trickling in, I know there are still a few
to come, so together with the 1990 tour, this column is set to be busy over the next
year. When I took the job on I didn't expect it to be quite so time filling.
I'm going to introduce an idea that .Glen Dundas has used in his new update of
'Tangled Up In Tapes', what he calls the DASH-F code. This gives points out of five
for Distance, Audio, Steadiness, Heads and Focus. This will give a quick guide to
the relative merits of films.
BRUSSELS - 11 June '89 DASH-F: 5 4 4 3 4
Most Likely: John Brown: Baby Blue: Shelter From The Storm: Just Like A Woman:
Highway 61: Gates Of Eden: Girl From The North Country: Mr. Tambourine Man: Mama You
Been On My Mind: Si 1 vio: When Did You Leave Heaven?: I Sha 11 be Re leased: Like a
Rolling Stone(frag): Hattie Carroll: Maggie's Farm.
A brave attempt at filming from very close in difficult circumstances, and one
which comes very close to succeeding. At best it is wonderful, but often Dylan is
obscured, especially at the start. When in view Dylan'~ head and shoulders fill\ of
the screen. The camera is remarkably steady, and sound is good for a video.
SAB SEBASTIEN - 17 June '89 DASH-F: 4 3 4 3 4
Subterranean Homesick Blues: I' 11 Remember You: John Brown: You' re A Big Girl
Now(cut): Shot of Love: Memphis Blues Again: It Ain't Me Babe: Don't Think Twice:
Mr. Tambourine Man: All Along The Watchtower: Silvio: In the Garden: Like a Rolling
Stone: Blowin' In The Wind: To Ramona: Maggie's Farm.
Fairly close, Dylan waist up about\ of the screen. Mostly steady clear view,
despite an unruly crowd The sound could be better.
ROME - 20 June '89 DASH-F: 3 3 4 4 4
You Don't Know Me(cut): Memphis Blues Again: Simple Twist of Fate: All Along The
Watchtower(cut): Mama You Been On My Mind: Girl From the North Country: Hattie
Carroll: I Shall be Released: Ballad of a Thin Man: Silvio: Like a Rolling Stone:
Mr. Tambourine Man: Knockin' On Heavens Door: Maggie's Farm.
Fairly close, Dylan knees up· fills \ screen. Shot from slightly above so a
mostly clear view if a little dark. The sound is a bit muddy. Toward the end the
crowd get more lively and tend to get in the way. The so and so's.
LIVORBO - 22 June '89 DASH-F: 3 3 4 3 4
Blowin' In The Wind(cut): Knockin' On Heavens Door: Maggie's Farm.
It's that hood again! Just the encores, Dylan waist up fills half the screen,
but often obscured by the audience. Tony Garnier appears 'sans chapeau'. (Bob's not
the only one who knows some french).
PATRAS - 26 June '89 DASH-F: 3 3 4 4 4
Most Likely(cut): Tears Of Rage: Shelter From The Storm(sl cut): Highway 61/Mr.
Tambourine Man: The Two Soldiers(cut): Knockin' On Heavens Door: Silvio: Girl From
the North Country(cut).
Mostly steady, with good view. Fairly close, waist up about\ screen. The sound
is a bit muddy, but the main interest is the first ever live 'Tears Of Rage'. Dylan
is obviously out of sorts. During 'Silvio' he stalks about, dismisses G.E. from the
stage and demands the stage lights be switched off. Despite a member of the audience
lighting a candle, Dylan remains in complete darkness for the rest of the show.
ATIIERS - 28 June '89 DASH-F: 4 3 4 4 4
Most Likely(cut): Hollis Brown: Ballad of a Thin Man: Highway 61: Don't Think Twice:
Every Grain Of Sand: Crazy Love: And It Stoned Me: Maggie's Farm.
Following on from Patras, slightly closer but otherwise similar. The crowd is
having fun but Bob isn't, and the lights go out again toward the end. Van Morrison
puts in a shadowy appearance in the murk.
-49-
ST. LOUIS. - 9 August '89 DASH-F: 3 3 3 4 4
Most Likely: I'm In The Mood For Love: Masters of War: I Want You: Memphis Blues
Again: Highway 61: Baby Blue: One Too Many Mornings: It's Alright Ma: 'Watching The
River Flow: Heart Of Mine: I Shall be Released: Like a Rolling Stone: Mr. Tambourine
Man: Maggie's Farm.
Not close, Dylan about \ screen. Good clear steady view, though dark. The
picture, or at least the one I've seen, has a grainy effect, possibly due to the
transfer from NTSC. During an excellent Highway 61 Dylan rests his foot on the
monitor. Isn't this what we want to see?
ATLARTA. - 10 Noveaber '89 DASH-F: 3 3 3 4 4
To Be Alone With You*: Masters of War: Man Of Peace*: Simple Twist of Fate: Lay Lady
Lay: Leopard Skin Hat: Gates Of Eden: Hattie Carroll: Mr. Tambourine Man: Dark As A
Dungeon: Broken: Lot To Laugh: What Good Am I?: Most Of The Time: In the Garden:
Like a Rolling Stone: Barbara Allen: Disease Of Conceit: All Along The Watchtower.
[*Dylan obscured]
The first view for me of 'Oh Mercy' songs, and in fact the concert has many
interesting song choices. Dylan waist up fills half the screen, but is often
obscured, especially at the start. Even when in view the film is sometimes a bit
bumpy. Dark during the acoustic, but what's unusual about that, the high spot has to
be Dylan at the piano for 'Disease of Conceit'. He harmners the keys throughout,
starts sitting, develops the 'Emotionally Yours' leg-fold, and then goes into the
full Golden Chords bit by standing over the piano. Wonderful.
Before I go on to the first of the 1990 films I'll try to catch up on some of
the odds and sods that have come around. First are a few newsclips, one on the St.
Louis '89 show, without any concert footage and another on the artist for the 'Oh
Mercy' cover, Trotsky. Also, going back a little but new to me, a newsclip from the
Bonner Springs show, 24.7.86, including a very brief section of 'Clean Cut Kid', and
another from the Amnesty show.
Next the video for 'Political World', about which I'll say only that it is a
performance video but that Dylan is only on camera part of the time. The
significance of the video I'll leave to others more qualified.
Now an example of why Dylan must get really pissed off. This is a 90 second clip
of Dylans' arrival at Heathrow for the London shovs , He's wearing his hood, but
seems happy enough to sign autographs. Finally somebody loses his patience and
informs the cameraman that he's pushed his luck far enough.
There's been a couple of M.T.V. specials, on Tom Petty and Roy Orbison. No new
Dylan, but a change from the usual clips in the former, including Japanese T.V. news
from '86. In both there is much 'Wilbury' talk. To be honest I've had enough of
this, but both these prograrmnes are interesting in their own right.
No doubt everyone caught the Rapido programme, which was shown on British T. V.
on March 9th, with Bob looking bemused as he received his award from the French.
There was a clip from the 'Everything Is Broken' video, the full thing should be
around soon.
With six nights to go at the cameras were out in force at Harmnersmith, and at
the Rex in Paris. Reports on the security were encouraging, and together with the
small venues, contributed to what should be a few nice films. As usual there were
some hiccups on the first night, but with five more to go at, lessons were learned,
in one case a new camera purchased, and techniques improved.
PARIS - 29 January 190 DASH-F 3 3 4 4 4
Subterranean Homesick Blues: Lay Lady Lay: All Along The Watchtower: Memphis Blues
Again: Highway 61: You're A Big Girl Now: Seein' The Real You: Gates Of Eden: Love
Minus Zero: Mr. Tambourine Man: One Too Many Mornings: Don't Think Twice: Just Like
A Woman: Political World: What Good Am I?: Man Gave Names: Everything Is Broken: I
Shall be Released: Like a Rolling Stone: Forever Young: Rainy Day Women.
Shot from the balcony to Dylan's right, Dylan is generally in clear view full
length. Thus you get all the knee bends and hip sw~ying, and there are plenty. Bob
stamps all over the song list taped to the floor.'The film is mostly steady, and
apart from being a little dark in places is excellent.

Close, with Dylan waist up filling the screen. A little bumpy and dark in

Political World(cut): You're a Big Girl Now: What Was It You Wanted?: All Along The

Fairly close with a clear view. Dylan's head and shoulders fills~ the screen.
That's the good news, the bad news is that the film is mostly unsteady so that Dylan
can't always be seen, or if he can it's only at the bottom of the screen. Also the
film is out of focus.

s
Shot from high in the balcony, there are many problems with this film. Apart
from the distance the major one is that it is out of focus (again!). Dylan full
length fills half the screen, though the camera zooms out frequently. The picture is
a little unsteady. A first effort, I'm sure a lot has been learned.
LONDON - 3 February '90 DASH-F: 5 4 4 3 4

At last one from the first night in focus. It's nice too, close with Dylan head
and shoulders filling half the screen. There are problems at first with visibility,
but these soon clear with some excellent steady shots.
LONDON 4 February '90 DASH-F: 4 3 3 5 2
Memphis Blues Again(cut): One More Cup Of Coffee: Chimes Of Freedom: Political

This film is dark, which is a pity, as it is fairly close with a clear view.
Sometimes unsteady or even off Dylan, the sound is muddy at first, but improves (or
at least my ears get accustomed to it).
LONDON - 5 February '90 DASH-F: 3 4 4 4 3
Watching The River Flow: Just Like A Woman: All Along The Watchtower: Memphis Blues
Again: Leopard Skin Hat: Political World: Tight Connections(cut): What Was It You

Mornings: Lay Lady Lay(cut): Everything's Broken: It Takes A Lot To Laugh: In the
Garden: Like a Rol1ing Stone: It Ain't Me Babe: Maggie's Farm.
Filmed from the balcony, when in clear view Dylan full length fills the screen.
A little dark in places, but the most aggravating thing is that the pictur~ starts
gradually to lean, so the best way to view is to stuff some books under one end of
the T.V.
LONDON - 7 February '90 DASH-F: 4 4 4 3 4
Forever Young: Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You: Everything's Broken: Just Like
A Woman: It Takes A Lot To Laugh(cut): Man In A Long Black Coat(cut).
Again from the balcony, mostly a clear view, with Dylan knees up filling the
screen. Too short to be of real interest, but quite a nice film.

John Brown: Political World: Memphis Blues Again: The Times Th ey Are A Changin':
Mama You Been On My Mind: It's Alright Ma: Forever Young (cut): Tonight I' 11 Be

Long Black Coat.
Further round the balcony, this is fairly close with Dylan waist up about \
screen. However it's very dark. I wish he'd light the stage, it would really improve
the films. A clear view, though a little unsteady.
LONDON - 7 February '90 DASH-F:
Just Like A Woman: Man In A Long Black Coat*: Like a Rolling Stone(frag)*.
[* Dylan not in view]
Very close, but as you don't get to see much of Dylan, not of much interest.

From centre balcony, and the balcony itself obscures Dylan from the waist down.
s
Bumpy at first, it settles down later to a few nice shots, though a little dark in
places. Panic obviously sets in when Dylan starts 'Disease Of Conceit' and the
cameraman makes frantic efforts to get the lens on the piano, succeeding eventually.
4 Thanks and apologies are due to the girl in the seat in front who was unceremon-
1 iously swiped out of the way.

1 Looks as if it was shot from the same place as the previous film, but this time
e there is no obstruction. Mostly steady and although a little dark, a marvellous
reminder for anyone who attended this great concert.
e Can I just take this opportunity to congratulate everyone who attempted to film
in Europe this year, and to thank all those who have put their films into circula-
tion so quickly. As I write I have a few films still to watch, and hopefully all
r films will circulate without undue delay. I must say that the general standard seems
very high. '

Bil BAVEJI - 17 Septeaber 78 55 IUDS


Another tape now circulating in an extended form. An extra 10-15 minutes over and
above that which has been about for as long as I can remember. Major additions are
two songs, one of which is called 'Take It Or Leave It', the other I've been so far
unable to put a title to. The usual 'remote' soundcheck quality makes this one less
than essential.
To finally finish off the 1989 US tour, well almost, we have the following:
STAILIGHT BOVL, SAii DIEGO - 6 Septeaber 89 95 IUDS
According to this show Dylan's career ended in 1967 with the whole of tonight's
offerings consisting of songs up to The Basement Tapes. Largely predictable- song
selections except for the opening 'Visions Of Johanna'. Tape is of perfectly
acceptable quality ~ut is spoilt by the venues close proximity to the local airport.
VIKGillIA POLY IBSTITUTE, BLA<XSBUltG - 6 Boveaber 89 100 IUDS

The opener tonight is Rainy Day Women which is followed by a first set that includes th
Simple Twist Of Fate and Lay Lady Lay. Dark As A Dungeon (one of only two renditions th
from 1989), is the highlight of the acoustic numbers. MA
So, almost the whole of the US/CANADA '89 tour is now circulating. All that remains Ho
to be tracked down is the second hour or so from Norfolk, 7th November. Woo

that there are several numbers here that are unique to this concert: Walk A Mile In Mr.

v) 10th November '86 - The Juno Awards with Bob presenting an award for 'Lifetim~
Achievement' to Gordon Lightfoot. Bob arrives on stage after a long delay,
wearing a modest little number, and mumbles his way through, as per usual on
.these occasions. At least he doesn't rely on the auto-cue.
vi) Did you realise that Bobby was a fight fan? He can clearly be seen in the
audience for the Donny Lalonde/Sugar Ray Leonard fight in November 1988.
Another example of the complete trivia availabl~ in this column.
Onto audience films. A number of. 'new' ones around again, first from pre-1990.
ST. LOUIS - 17 June '88 DASH-F: 2 3 3 3 3 .

Brown: In The Garden: Lakes Of Ponchartrain: The Times They Are A Changing: Boots Of

Shot from slightly above Dylan to his left, fairly distant. The main distraction is
the constant movement of members of the audience. Dark during the acoustic songs.

This is a real gem. Not too much to say, it's that good. Certainly the closest of
the '89 shows that I've seen, and a nice clear picture as well. Occasional use of
the zoom and panning helps though you do get Ringo Starr, so it's not all good news.

House Of Gold: It Takes A Lot To Laugh: Simple Twist of Fate: Highway 61: Song To

Woody: Lakes Of Ponchartrain: The Times They Are A Changing: Maggies Farm.
Again fairly close, Dylan waist up about\ screen. A little bumpy, but not enough to
spoil a good film. The view is straight on, and the camera pans to G.E. Smith from
time to time. Trust the acoustic set to be extra dark though.

watchable film. Why does everyone have to change seats during the acoustic set?

SC Conceit(cut): Maggies Farm(sl. cut)
The first time I've seen an audience film with three different camera angles. Most
of the show is shot from Dylans extreme right, with a clear, if dark, view of the
stage. Dylan full length just about fills the stage, and you get to see him on piano
for part of the first song. The camera moves to the opposite side of the stage
e
during 'I'll Remember You', and he must move fast, as.we get the start and the end
of the song. However·the piano is now out of view, so'another move is necessary for
s
'Disease Of Conceit', and then 'Maggies Farm'. These last two songs are appreciably
closer than the rest of the film.

Lots of films from the 1990 tour again, though I think the bulk of them are now
around to some extent at least. The standard is very high again, a great tribute to
the ingenuity of the people r e spons Lb Le ,

Another from the balcony, Dylan full length about\ screen. A clear view apart from
the balcony rail at knee height. Nice and steady, with good colour and sharp
picture. Relatively light even during the acoustic songs. Great version of 'Rolling
Stone'. Nice film.

Mr. Tambourine Man: One Too Many Mornings(cut): Mr. Tambourine Man: Maggies Farm.
I've put these three films together as they were shot by the same person, and are
similar in appear ance , They are close, a little unsteady in parts, and fairly dark,
but would have been nice if they'd been a bit longer. The first two songs are from
the 29th, with one song from each of the other shows.

A good, clear and unusually sharp picture, it looks as if a tripod has been used.
Suffers a little from the lack of lights especially during the acoustic set. Quite
close, Dylan knees up about 3:4 screen. Another film worth getting.

There are a lot of similar films from Paris, shot from the balcony. Almost all of
these films are worth watching. Some nice shots of Dylan and G.E. together.

nice clear and watchable film.
PARIS - 01 February 90 DASH-F: 5/2 4 4 4 3
Most Likely: Hollis Brown: Political World: What Was It You Wanted: Tears Of Rage.
Close, very much so in places, but frequent use of the zoom, while adding interest,
means the picture is often distant. Usually steady and clear, this is a nice if
short film. You even get to hear the cameraman being warned that he's been spot~ed.

Looks like a really nice concert, with some different song choices, and some good
performances. As for the film, it's the usual: From the balcony with a good steady
view, but a little dark in places. Now where have I heard that before?
PARIS - 01 February 90 DASH-F: 5 4 4 3 4

Shorter film of the same show, but much closer. Usually steady, one of the best of a
good bunch of films from Paris this year.

Pretty Peggy-O(cut): Tight Connection: Political World: You're A Big Girl Now: What

Close, Dylan and guitar filling the screen. Just about always steady with a clear
view, not even particularly dark. An excellent film.

Memphis Blues Again: One More Cup Of Coffee: My Back Pages: Political World: I Shall

over now, Baby Blue: Boots Of Spanish Leather: Hattie Carroll: Man Of Constant
Sorrow: Everything Is Broken: What Good Am I?: Seein' The Real You: It Takes A Lot
To Laugh: Simple Twist of Fate: Maggies Farm: Like a Rolling Stone(frag).
This was a super show, Dylan was in the mood very quickly, and it shows in this
equally good film. Very close, waist up filling the screen, mostly steady and clear.
'Boots of Spanish Leather' is great, and 'Maggies Farm' is one of the best. The
latter was missed by one (in)famous scribe, who had an unfortunate call of nature.
You missed a belter.
e LOBOOB - 05 February 90 DASH-F: 5 5 5 5 5
Watching The River Flow(cut): Just Like A Woman: Watchtower: Memphis Blues Again.
This is the kind of film that means I have to downgrade all the others. Only four
4 songs, but exceptionally close, clear and steady. Even finds time to zoom out to
bring the guitar into view. People who get films as good as this make me sick, how
A can others compete? '

-36-
LOBDOB - 08 February 90 DASH-F: 2 3 4 5 4
Thin Man: Pledging My Time: I Want You: Political World: You Angel You: Watchtower:
Spanish Leather: To Ramona: She B~longs To Me: Tambourine Man: Disease Of Conceit:
I'll Remember You: Where Teardrop's Fall: Seein' The Real You: Every Grain Of Sand:
Rainy Day Women: Rolling Stone: It Ain't Me Babe: All Around This World: Highway 61.
Shot from high in the balcony, so fairly distant. Usually steady and clear, but the
film somehow lacks the atmosphere of the show, although this improves toward the
end. If you were hanging over the front of the stage in the middle on the Thursday
night, then you're probably on this film.
Finally a few odds and ends to finish off. An improved copy of the Bridge Benefit is
now around, though still not perfect. There's also some audience footage from 1978
now available on PAL for the first time, so far as I know. Firstly over forty songs
from three of the June L.A. shows, most of them cut. The quality is pretty dire, so
I won't bother listing them. A little better is film from Cleveland 20 October, 8
songs, though I don't think this is the complete film. Shot from nearly straight on,
Dylan is usually in clear view full length, and when zoomed in fills the screen from
knees up. A copy of the NTSC master would be nice to watch.

FREE TRADE BALL, MABCIIESTER ·7 May 1965 (PA Tape) 75 ains
We've all known of the existance of this tape for quite some time now, so has it
been worth the wait? You betcha! A great performance in great quality. With so
little available from this tour this has got to be one of the most important tapes
to circulate for quite some time, you really must get to hear it.
IW>ISOII SQUARE GARDER, REW TOll - 30 January 1974 (PA Tape) 85 ains
Another line recording to have emerged is a very welcome 1974 show. As with the
Boston, PA Tape, that circulated last summer, this one features the first hour and
a half of the show, first Band set included, to finish just into the start of The
Bands second set. Features Dylan's contributions upto and including Its Alright Ma.
ERTERTAIKKENT CElnER, PERTH - 27 March 1978 75 ains
This one having been rumoured for a while is now doing the rounds too. By Australian
standards a listenable tape. Comes in at One Too Many Mornings and continues through
to the end of the show. Turns out that this is the show that circulated in dire
quality, some y~ars ago and was dismissed then as a fake.
SADGER PERFORIIIlfG ARTS CERTRE, REW ORLEABS - 10 Bov 1981 (PA Tape) 100 ains
Yet another PA Tape to wing its way across the Atlantic, this one however has been
professionally remixed and is in perfect quality. It's certainly a notch up on most
of your run-of-the-mill soundboards. The circulating tape features practically the
whole show with only Hard Rain, When You Gonna Wake Up and a verse or so of Times
missing. That of course means that the unique performance of Thief On The Cross is
now available in staggeringly fine quality.
'RED 1.0C%5 AIIPIIITIIEATI.E, IIOI.I.ISOB - 27 July 1986 (PA Tape) 85 ains
THE FORUM, IBGLEWOOD - 3 August 1986 (PA Tape) 85 ains
Yet another two o.f the mysterious late tour 1986 PA tapes. Both feature the last
hour and a half or so of the shows, coming in at Ballad Of A Thin Man right through
to the end. That of course means that they take in the second Petty sets. ·Both
worthwhile for quality alone but as the existing Red Rocks audience tape suffers
from speed variations on a couple of numbers all the better.
RADIO CITY MUSIC BALL, 1!IEV TOll - 19 October 1988 (PA Tape) 90 ains
Another PA Tape. This time the last show of the 1988 tour. A very pleasant tape
featuring practically the whole of the concert and missing only the end of
Watchtower and Maggies Farm. Includes those late 1988 regulars, Bob Dylans 115th
Dream, the extra versed With God On Our Side and Wagonners Lad.
SAKBODI.ONO, RIO DE JABEIRO - 25 January 1990 (Audience Tape) 110 ains
SAKBODROIIO, RIO DE JABEIRO - 25 January 1990 (PA Tape) 90 ains
After a long delay the fairly atrocious quality audience tape from Rio is now
finally circulating. It does feature the whole of the show, but that's about all you
can say in its favour. Pass on that one and instead go for the 90 minute PA Tape.
Though incomplete (missing In The Garden(cut), Rolling Stone, Forever Young & Rainy
Day Women) what you do get is in very good quality. Now whatever happened to that
San Paulo tape?
ROY ORBISON TRIBUTE - 24 February 1990 15 ains
Reasonable quality audience tape of Dylan's guest spot with some of the Byrds. The
tape features Dylan sharing vocals on Mr Tambourine Man, his contributions to He Was
A Friend Of Mine and the communal Only The Lonely do not sound all that extensive.
Right then, lets get back to the never-ending tour Part 'whatever it is'.
OIIVEI.SITY SPORTIBG AUDITORIUK, IIOIITI.EAL - 29 May 1990 100 ains
The very first tape from any tour is always of great interest and tonights show is
no exception. Major surprises are not so much in song selection but in performance.
So often in the past opening night has been something of a shambles, but this show
certainly ain't that with the band and Dylan really in great form from the opening

-31-

-----
number. Dylan is in great voice and, by recent standards, chatty even down to
introducing the band. Even the harmonica playing is spot on. As to be expected, the
format is very much as per the late '89 /early '90 shows. Opening numbers are
Absolutely Sweet Marie and Lay Lady Lay. An acoustic Desolation Row and a great
cover version of No Time One More Time are also included.
MKKORIAL ARE'RA• ICIBGSTOR - 30 Kay 1990 100 aim,
Second night and things are still on a high. Plenty of set changes from Montreal,
though unfortunately mostly replacing one old chestnut with another. A few pleasant
additions with Gotta Serve Somebody and acoustic versions of Love Minus Zero, She
Belongs To Me and Hollis Brown. Tonight highspot though just has to be the piano
backed version of 'Where Teardrops Fall.
RAC OPERA. OTtAWA - 1 .June,1990 85 ains
Set list already settling down with the first half of tonight's show a repeat of
Kingston. Things start to change after the acoustic set with It Takes A Train To
Laugh reintroduced and a unique guitar version of Disease Of Conceit. Most unusual
part of this show however is the opening verse of Like A Rolling Stone, you just
gotta hear that!
RAC OPERA• OTtAWA - 2 .June 1990 100 ains
Another very enjoyable show from early in the tour. No great surprises in tonight's
set but we do get Tight Connection, Leopard Skin Pill Box and Desolation Row again.
ALPIIIE VALLEY• EAST TROY - 9 .June 1990 100 ains
A week or so on and the band and Dylan are still in fine form. In tonight's opening
set are I'll Remember You and Tight Connection, the acoustic set features John Brown
and Desolation Row. The major surprise though is reserved for the second set when I
get to hear Shooting Star live for the first time.
CIVIC CERTER. LA CROISSE - 12 .June 1990 90 ains
Tears of Rage makes a welcome return to the opening set. Much of the rest is largely
predictable, not a wholly bad thing as we do get Desolation Row and Shooting Star.
CENTENlfl.AL HALL. WIRBIPEG - 17 .June 1990 100 ains
Largely predictable stuff again but still a worthwhile show. Lay Lady Lay, Tears Of
Rage, Desolation Row and the cover version of No More One More Time all featured.
CENtKIIBIAL BALL WilfRIPEG - 18 .June 1990 90 ains
Final show from this mini tour sees another very unadventurous set list. Take heart
though from Absolutely Sweet Marie opening and Queen Jane Approximately returning
after a lengthy abscence.
Back to Europe for a motley collection of halls and muddy fields, oh for the
Hammersmith Odeon •••
FESTIVAL. L\LVOYA - 30 .June 1990 95 ains
Considering my worst fears about the sort of show these festivals might produce this
one ain't half bad. To Be Alone With You and Lay Lady Lay start the show. Also
featu~ed tonight are Positively 4th Street, Shooting Star and Desolation Row.
IBTERBATIOBAL CONGRESS CERTRE• BERi.ili - 5 .July 1990 90 ains
Of the European shows I've heard from the tour this has got to be my favourite. Not
only a really fine recording but the band and Dylan are very tight tonight and Dylan
is especially chatty. Maggies Farm opens and set includes Simple Twist Of Fate, I'll
Be Your Baby Tonight and an acoustic Song To Woody. Also featured is what I assume
to be a cover version, probably titled Learn To Live and Love.
FESTIVAL. TOURHOUT - 7 .July 1990 70 aim
I've still to hear a reasonable tape from this show, the problem seems to be down to
the very bassy sound. Not missing a great deal though, tonight's support set to The
Cure is mostly a rush through of greatest hits. Silvio, havine been a minor hit in
Belgium recently, opens the set. Not a single number _from Oh Mercy.
FESTIVAL. WKRCIITElt - 8 .July 1990 70 aim
Very similar set to Tourhout, though things seem even more rushed and lack-lustre.
The concession to Oh Mercy is that Everything Is Broken is included.

MEL G.

Anyone attending the 'Days Of 49' convention will have had the chance to see all
the new exciting video on view for the first time to the general public. Nothing of
major interest but there was some nice little items in there, though how quickly
this material will surface remains to be seen. Of the audience films, the new ones
were footage from Adelaide '78, which I can't comment on yet as I missed it, and
some 189 film from Grand Rapids which I caught very quickly, and which looked very
nice. Details will follow when I can.
Bob doesn't seem to be able to avoid doing those promotional videos. The 'Most
Of The Time' video, as everyone will already know, avoids the problems that Bob has
with lip synching by filming the performance 'live' as it were. And, disagreeing
with. John Green in the last issue, a very good film and performance it is too. The
other two new ones are both semi-official videos for 'Everything Is Broken'. One is
based on short excerpts from previous videos and 'Hearts Of Fire' clips, the other
is a clever alteration of the 'Subterranean' film, with the old cards overlaid with
the words to the new song. Again quite well done.
Also shown at the convention was a number of official film clips - I'm hoping I
can remember them all, I suppose I should start taking notes if I'm going to do this
seriously. I do remember the Roy Orbison tribute, which Bob seems to enjoy doing,
and a wonderful, but oh so short, out-take from 'Eat The Document' - a clip of
'Thin Man', at the piano, jerky movements and plenty of arm waving. Wasn't he wasted
in those days? There are a number of news clips available from French T. V. (and
therefore in B/W on PAL) covering the award ceremony, from different angles, though
with the same speech. One of them also has fragments of 3 songs from one of the
Paris shows. Did Bob know it was being filmed officially as well as unofficially?
I vaguely remember some mention of Tokyo '78 press conference footage, together with
fragments of a couple of songs from one of the shows, and also some back-stage at
Farm Aid film, but as I again missed both these I can't really comment. Must try
harder I suppose.
One thing I did see, and I know it's around, is the footage for a Brazilian T.V.
show shot in Rio this year. Only two songs were shown at Sachas, but there are five
on the full film. Multi-image stuff, similar in a way to the Barcelona '84 film,
though not as good. Obviously it's really nice to have, but if I'm allowed a
personal thought here, I think the over use of camera tricks detracts from the film.
Somehow the sound and the picture seem to have been separated, and the audio becomes
irrelevant to the 'artistic' effects. This results in a loss of the soul of the
performance. In my opinion.
One final thing shown at 'Days Of 49' was the 'rushes' for the promotional
videos 'When The Night Comes Falling' and 'Emotionally Yours'. At the convention an
edited version was shown, but the full film is apparently much longer. It consists
of six run throughs of the former song, and five of the latter, not all complete,
from different camera angles. Can they only afford one camera? On top of that there
is endless film of various scenes being shot for the videos, on the bus, on the
streets, with the swing, crowd scenes etc. etc. There is also some jamming,
unfortunately often silent, though there is a version of 'I Shall Be Released', but
no vocals from Bob. The whole thing lasts about 100 minutes - it just seems longer!

Onto more usual fare, we have audience films from three legs of the endless tour.

Shot from the balcony, the film starts off very close, but out of focus then zooms
back, but becomes so dark that Dylan is indistinguishable. This improves slightly
after the acoustic set, with a few nice shots towards the end. A film of two halves.
The camera isn't switched off after the show, so we get a video of the inside of a
bag and a muffled audio of conversation leaving Hammersmith. It's a funny old game.

The closest film that I've seen from this show. Shot from Dylan's right. When the
lighting is good it is excellent, but suffers a little, when the stage is dim. 'I
Want You' I particularly remembered enjoying at the time, and this film shows what a
marvellous performance it was. Dylan keeps bursting into a grin, and the Hammersmith
twitch is at it's most active, but of course the whole show is Dylan at his best ••
HAMBUllG 3 July '90
Just to get the ball rolling, the first from the S',llllliler shows in Europe. Only one
song, 'Most Likely', but it's very good. The outdoor shows don't have the lighting
problems of inside halls. Bob is back in his funny hat phase, and looks thouroughly
pissed off. As was the cameraman, I imagine, caught so early. I hope and trust
others will have had more success.

The audience videos continue to flow in, the best, somewhat


unusually, from the States. In fact so far there 1s nothing from
this years European shows to get excited about. Maybe the best is yet to come.
The Roy Orbison tribute is around in nice quality, and there Is also a clip, in
a~palling iuality, from backstage at the Grammy Award with Stevie Wonder. Lastly the
video for Nobody's Child' contains no Dylan, or Wilbury, involvement.
Onto the audience film:

Closer than the previous night, it suffers a little from heads and camera movement,
especially at the start. In places an excellent film, and I particularly enjoyed
'Thin Man'. The last two songs are closer than the rest, head and shoulders stuff.

Another view of the man, from his extreme right, so that you don't get to see the
other members of the band. Apart from G.E., that's no great loss. Mostly a steady
and unobstructed view, Dyl~n knees up filling the screen.

The first to cross the Atlantic from this year that I've seen, and it's not a bad
effort at all. Shot from above, but close enough and with a mostly clear steady
view, after a bumpy start. Good use of the zoom adds a lot of interest. The sound on
the copy I have 1s muddy, perhaps caused by the transfer to PAL. One first is the
feet obscuring the view a little toward the end. Honest! Work it out for yourself.

Virtually the full show, filmed slightly from Dylans left. The p.i.c t ur e q_uality

obstruction caused by heads which, while not always hiding Dylan, detract from what
could otherwise have been a nice if distant film.

Slightly from Dylans right, and steady enough to assume a tripod has been used. The
camera seems to be above the audiences heads, thus giving a clear view, and
resulting in a very watchable film. In fact from viewing it you would never realise
that it was the 2nd. worst gig on the never ending tour •

mt&@ll/B~lt<@ JOHN GREEN.

BrflJVIBmtBlll~~
To start things off t.h i.s time we have a couple of tapes of album outtakes from the
days before touring took up most of the time. Not what you could call really major
tapes but they make a pleasant change to all those audience tapes of recent shows.
PAT GAR.RET'1' & BILLY THE 1:ID SESSIOB, MEXICO. 20 January 1973 60 Iii.us
Almost eighteen years on and another session of outtakes creep out into circulation.
A fine quality tape consists largely of instrumentals and several versions of Billy,
some mighty amusing banter in the studio too. The major inclusion on this tapef
however, has to be Goodbye Holly, another long standing rumour turns out to be true.
REAL LIVE OUTTAn:S. July 1984 70 ains
An hour and a bit of the live 1984 material which didn't make it onto the album.
Some understandable omissions from the official release, 'Blowin' with Bono a prime
example. It would, perhaps, have been nice to see some of the more unusual tracks
make it. I'm sure the likes of Enough Is Enough, Every Grain Of Sand and With God On
Our Side wouldn't have made that album any worse than it was! Insufficient time and
energy to sort out exactly where each song comes from, several are definitely from
Slane though. Anyway full tracklisting as follows: Simple Twist Of Fate, Enough ls
Enough, Every Grain Of Sand, To Ramona, With God On Our Side, Its All over Now Baby
Blue, Tupelo Honey, Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat, Blowin In The Wind, Mr Tambourine
Man, Knockin On Heavens Door, Shelter From The Storm, & Just Like A Woman.
Meanwhile back at the never-ending tour.
UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN ONTARIO, LOBDON. 4 June 1990 90 ains
After the glories of the opening shows things are a little downbeat tonight. Still a
few worthwhile moments, though no great surprises, in the set but Tears Of Rage and
an acoustic Ballad Of Hollis Brown are included.
O'UKFE CENTRE, TORONTO. 5 June 1990 100 ains
First night in Toronto sees another fine concert. Subterranean Homesick Blues is
back as the opener and Tears Of Rage also in tonight. A most enjoyable acoustic set
sees rare outings for both Tomorrow Is A Long Time and John Brown. The first encore
is a welcome return for Barbara Allen.
O'UEFK CENTRE, TORONTO. 6 June 1990 100 mi.us
My personal favourite from the Toronto shows. Included tonight are Absloutely Sweet
Marie, Early Morning Rain and an acoustic I've Been All Around This World. Set list
also.sees a. unique performance of One More Night, unfortunately its "special guest"
Ronnie Hawkins that takes the vocal for that one. ·
O'UKFE CENTRE, TORONTO. 7 June 1990 100 aius
No great surprises on here but despite that it's still an enjoyable tape. Opening
set features I' 11 Remember You and I Believe In You, acoustic versions of Hollis
Brown and Desolation Row also in tonight. First encore is a somewhat subdued version
I've Been All Around This World.
ADLER THEATRE, DAVKHPORT. 10 June 1990 95 aius
Another very predictable set. Only saving graces being the opener of Absolutely
Sweet Marie and a repeat for Shooting Star.
KUIUCIPAL AUDITORIUM, SIOUX FALLS. 13 June 1990 100 ains
These set lists are becoming a little pedestrian to say the least. Even the old
chestnut of Just Like A Woman is back in tonight. To Be Alone With You opens for the
only time on this leg of the tour.
CIVIC CENTRE, FARGO. 14 June 1990 100 Iii.us
Absolutely Sweet Marie, which just has to be his finest opener, starts another
predictable set. Aside from Shooting Star the rest are virtually all staples from
the last couple of hundred shows.

-40-
CIVIC CERTRE, BISMARX. 15 June 1990 95 mins
Another acoustic John Brown and the now fairly regular Shooting Star punctuate
tonights run through of hits.
And so back to Europe:
FESTIVAL, REYLJAVIK. 27 June 1990 95 ains
I thought this might be the one that would take longest to get round, so pleasantly
surprised to see it so soon. Anyway first night in Europe sees a continuation of
where thinks were left in Winnipe~. Thankfully Shooting Star is still being
included. Our man continues to be quite chatty with an explanation of the Vikings
going to Minnesota amongst tonights repartee.

FESTIVAL, ROSKILDK. 29 June 1990 95 mins


Tonights set sees the inclusion of Queen Jane Approximately and Leopard Skin Pill
Box Hat. They do little to enliven a fairly ordinary show though.
RUISRO<XFESTIVAL, TURm 1 July 1990 100 ain
Its becoming i~reasingly difficult to find something to say about a lot of these
shows. Tonights effort is certainly nothing out of the ordinary with a largely
predictable set for the punters. The only slightly unusual inclusions being I Dont
Believe You and Shooting Star.
STADTP~, HAMBURG. 3 July 1990 100 ain
I did not get to hear this one until I had already promoted the Berlin show as the
best of the tour. Not sure that really changes but this is an equally impressive
show. Dylan seems to be really enjoying himself and is very chatty about his guitar,
German reunification and The Beatles. Surprises in the set list are saved for the
second half of the show where the cover of No More One More Time returns. Tonights
highlight has to be a number I've certainly not heard before, no doubt called Old
Rock n Roller I'd like to think it could be an original. If you are only going to
~et a couple of tapes from the European bash then you could do a lot worse than to
Just get the German shows.
CASINO, MORTREUX. 9 July 1990 95 mins
Final show from the European bash now here. Compared to the previous two nights
festival shows in Belgium this is a lot more interesting, still not a patch on those
early US/Canadian shows. Anyway Absolutely Sweet Marie back as is I'll Remember You
and I Believe In You. Strangest one tonight though is an interesting version of
Across The Borderline with Flaco Jiminez guesting on accordion.
The arrival of the above tapes sees the whole of the May/June/July concerts now in
general circulation, I've even come across a good quality Torhout!. Thanks to all
responsible for getting those about as quickly as they did.
The trouble with these tours is that no sooner does one leg finish another one
starts up. With just over a months break from Europe here we go back on the road.
CHAMPS DK BRIOBK, GEORGE. 18 August 1990 80 ains.
This was the first one I got to hear from this leg of the never-ending tour. The
initial thing that struck me about the show was how similar it was to all those
recent shows in both US and Euro~e. Seems that at least for the time being gone are
the days of the constantly changing set lists. Having said that this may well prove
to be one of the more interesting shows of this tour with the third song in a cover
of Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay. The only others I would have called slightly out
of the ordinary, that was unti 1 I heard the next two nights concerts, were the
opener of Maggies Farm and an acoustic Man Of Constant Sorrow.
HEKORIAL ARENA, VICTORIA. 19 August 1990 75 mins
Tonight the only variations to the George set are Sitting On the Dock Of The Bay is
replaced by Positively 4th Street, a slight reshuffle of the acoustic numbers and
Shooting Star gets dropped.
PACIFIC COLISEUM, VANCOUVER. 20 August 1990 90 ains
Much the same again at this one, tonight the third song variation sees Ballad Of A
Thin Man back, more minor tinkering with the acoustic numbers and Shooting Star gets
reinstated. Dylan continues to be quite talkative but even the chat is getting to be
the same every night!
A. SCHITZKRHALL, PORTLABD. 21 August 1990 80 ains
Hardly a stunning return to form but a definite improvement over the last three
nights concerts. At last some variations to the set lists too. I Want You, You're A
Big Girl Now and I'll Be Your Baby Tonight all back in the opening set. The acoustic
section gets a complete revam~ welcoming back John Brown, Song To Woody and Lakes Of
Pontchartrain. Changes dont finish there with Rainy Day Women and What Good Am I all
back in favour.

Yet another excursion into the world of promotional


videos with the "It's Unbelievable" effort, and stunning it is·
too. Only a little lip synching required, but plenty of meaningful, 'drama school'
grimaces and grins. A story line as well, though not much to do with the song.
The full 'To Ramona' from Newcastle '65, a 'Don't Look Back' out-take, is now
available, and certainly a treat to watch. Never mind 10 CD's of 'new' material,
what about a set of 10 videos? Howard Alk's film from Avignon '81 could be part of
it, it's coming out in dribs and drabs anyway, the latest song being an apparent
promo for 'Shot of Love'. With all respect to Mr. Alk, not the best film I've ever
seen, mostly from the side and plenty of heads, even if they do belong to the back-
up singers.
Onto the audience films, some nice efforts from North America getting onto PAL quite
quickly. Thanks to all involved.

Fairly close, for the first half there are a few heads, though they don't usually t

Once the camera(wo)man decides which seat to use we end up with a clear view in

mostly steady and apart from the slightly muddy sound, is a nice film, especially
when the lights are up. It's good to see old G.E. still going strong despite all the
rumours to the contrary.

As seems to be the case these days another leg of the tour is currently working-it's
way around North America. Tapes from those latest shows are in fact already about,
but firstly we have a few earlier tapes to sort out.
LIVE AID REHEARSAL July 1985/AL GREER SESSION July 1984 15 ains.
It seems amazing to think that Dylan had actually rehearsed with those ugly sisters
before that fateful night in 1985. Well here's the evidence, and pretty damning it
is too. The circulating tape is in very fine quality which is all you can say in
it's favour. Plenty of mutterings and aimless strumming as the three numbers are
'
f played through. Strangely included on the same tape is the much more worthwhile
t Honey Wait from the Al Green session of 1984.
r
MID-STATE FAIRGROUND, PASO ROBLES 6 August 1986 soundcheck 20 ains.
I first saw this one li.sted when Tangled Up In Tapes Revisted was published, only
recently managed to get a copy though. Tracklisting of Brownsville Girl, Maggies
Farm and various instrumentals sounds a lot better than the tape you actually get.
Our man is clearly audible on Maggies Farm but it's the girls wbo provide vocals on
Brownsville Girl. As soundchecks go quality ain't that bad.
WILBURT ROUGH NIXKS 1990 25 ain.
This was sent to me labelled as a rough mix tape, which suggested that the final
released version of the Volume 3 album would not be a great deal different.
Fortunately that supposition turned out to be incorrect. Anyway what you get here is
a lacklustre collection of seven numbers lasting less than 30 minutes. Dylan does
feature widely on the vocals but can hardly be accused of being in great voice and
there certainly ain't no Tweeter and The Monkeyman amongst this lot.
STADTPARK, HAMBURG 3 July 1990 PA Tape 100 ain.
This arrived claiming to be a PA tape, however, I'm pretty sure it's not. Being
sli~htly overcooked, and therefore inferior to the great audience tape already
available from the show, makes this one somewhat redundant anyway.
Another batch of tapes from the August/September leg of the tour now here
COLORADO STATE FAIR GRANDSTAND ,PUEBLO 24 August 1990 85 ain.
Silvio and I'll Remember You open a largely unexciting set. The only other
inclusions of any note being What Good Am I and the acoustic Desolation Row again.
IOWA STATE FAIR, DES MOINES 26 August 1990 80 ain.
Set lists continue to be shaken up with Desolation Row and Shooting Star both
returnins. The inclusion of the odd cover version becoming a regular feature too,
tonight it's Lets Learn To Live And Love.
HOLIDAY STAR IIUSIC THEATRE, KERRILLVILLE 27 August 1990 75 ain.
Things definitely starting to look up a bit with a much more interesting show. Only
real surprise in the first half is the welcomed return of Man Of Peace. Second half
of the shows is where things start to get weird though. Introduced as a tribute to
Stevie Ray Vauihan a rather badly performed Moon River is thrown in, the following
track however is a lovely version of Friend Of The Devil.
HOLIDAY STAR MUSIC THEATRE, KERRILLVILLE 28 August 1990 90 ain.
Another interesting show includes To Be Alone With You as opener and repeats for
Tears 'Of Rage, Son& To Woody, It Takes A Lot To Laugh and a "band" version of I've
Been All Around This World. Tonights cover is Stand By Me, even the standard last
four songs gets a change with Barbara Allen as first encore.
KIRBESOTA STATE FAIR, ST. PAUL 29 August 1990 85 ain.
He must think he's in Belgium again toniiht as Silvio starts the show! Also included
on this one are Lay Lady Lay an acoustic Song To Woody and even a rare outing for
Joey. Friend of The Devil returns in the cover spot. Standard last four again split
with Simple Twist Of Fate replacing I Shall Be Released.
DEVANEY SPORTS CENTRE, LINCOLR 31 August 1990 75 ain.
The Halls of Montezuma (Battle Hymn Of The Republic) instrumental and Tangled Up In
Blue kick this one off. A fairly interesting set also features Man Of Peace,
Shooting Star and a "band" version of I've Been All A;round This World.
SWISS VILLA, LAMPE 1 Septeaber 1990 90 ain.
Same orening pair as last night but quite a few changes otherwise, unfortunately
it's a 1 largely predictable stuff. The acoustic set is a little different however
featuring Love Minus Zero, Desolation Row and Gates Of Eden.

-48-
R.IVERFRORT AMPHITHKATRE. HARNIBAL 2 Septeaber 1990 85 ain.
The first half of this otherwise reasonable recording is spoilt by the audience
screamin$ for increased volume· through the PA. That's unfortunate as there's a few
interesting numbers included tonight. Absolutely Sweet Marie opens a first set which
also features Tomorrow Is A Long Time and Man Of Peace. An interesting acoustic set
runs through Man Of Constant Sorrow, Trail Of The Buffalo, Mama You Been On My Mind
and Boots Of Spanish Leather. Tonight also sees a rare outing for Pledging My Time.
UHIIOWJIVDUE. S.ARTA FE 11 Septeaber 1990 90 ain.
Not having seen tracklistings for the previous few shows I'm not too sure what's
been done since Hannibal. Anyway the Instrumental and Tangled Up In Blue are again
the openers, things then change with Simple Twist Of Fate and Friend Of The Devil.
Man Of Peace and Man In A Long Black Coat are also back in.
KESA AMPHITKATRE.KESA 12 September 1990 75 min.
A reasonably interesting set list to this one is spoilt by the only tape I've so far
heard being a notch or three down on usual quality standards. Seems that the Battle
Hymn Of The Republic instrumental is becoming common as the opening, things
definitely then start to change with Tomorrow Is A Long Time, Man In A Long Black
Coat and Watching the River Flow all in the first set. Acoustic numbers include John
Brown, Song To Woody and Boots Of Spanish Leather. Tears Of Rage and a cover of
Little Fea'ts Will in' are also featured tonight.
Still quite a few shows required to complete that particular set of concerts, tapes
from the earlier shows, however, on the October/November leg are already starting to
roll in ••••••••
TILLES CENTRE. CW POST 11 October 1990 70 min.
Opening night from yet another leg of the never endin& tour. The Montezuma
instrumental is still starting the show with tonights opening set also featuring
Tomorrow Is A Long Time and Watching The River Flow. Acoustic numbers include John
Brown, Song To Woody and Boots Of Spanish Leather. It's only after those that the
real changes start with the debut of some Red Sky numbers, disappointingly only two
are performed, Under The Red Sky and TV Talking Song. Friend Of The Devil gets
another repeat before things close as expected.
PAR.AKOUBT PERFORKIBGAR.TS CENTRE. SPR.IBGFIKLD 12 October 1990 75 ain.
I'm sure I've said before that the first tape I get to ·hear from any particular
tour, or leg of a tour, is an eagerly awaited treat. Well this one certainly lived
up to expectations with a varied set and Dylan in fine form. As with the second half
of the last tour the Halls Of Montezuma instrumental continues to open, tonight it's
followed by To Be Alone With You and Lay Lady Lay. The acoustic set includes It's
All Over Baby Blue and Desolation Row, but it's immediately after that the real "new
ones" come in. Only two songs from the new album on this show unfortunately, Under
The Red Sky and Wiggle Wiggle, but you do also get Seeing The Real You At Last and a
cover of Willin'. Even a slightly different arrangement for the Blowin In The Wind
encore with Steve Bruton on mandolin.
EISERHOVER. HALL THKATRE.WEST POIRT 13 October 1990 85 min.
The show that warranted all the newspaper coverage. Surprisingly the instrumental is
dropped and it's straight into Tangled Up In Blue, I Want You and the now regular
Man In A Long Black Coat. I' 11 Remember You returns and there is a rare acoustic
outing for Trail Of The Buffalo. It's the same two Red Sky numbers as last night.
BEACOR THEATRE. REV YOU: 15 October 1990 80 min.
First night of the Beacon residency sees Montezuma reinstated as are Joey1 Watching
The River Flow and Man Of Peace. Real disappointment in that only the title track
from the new album makes the set.
BEACOM THEATRE. REV YOU: 16 October 1990 75 min.
Slightly more adventurous set list tonight with an instrumental of Dixie followed by
Most Likely You Go Your Way for openers. The Red Sky numbers iet promoted to the
first set with TV Talking Song, Under The Red Sky and Wiggle Wiggle all performed.
The long missing Two Soldiers returns to the acoustic set and then it's Everything
Is Broken, Joey and Positively 4th Street before an as-usual finish.
BEACOM THEATRE. BEV YOll 17 October 1990 80 min.
On first listening, my favourite from the New York shows. Straight in with
Absolutely Sweet Marie, Man In A Long Black Coat and a repeat of the Willin' cover.
Red Sky gets represented with TV Talking Song and Wiggle Wiggle. A pleasing acoustic
set sees Man Of Constant Sorrow, Hard Rain and Hattie Carroll all back in favour.
The recent opener Tangled Up In Blue is now in the second set which also sees the
return of Joey, What Good Am I and It Takes A Lot To Laugh.

-49-
BEACOR THEATRE. REW YOll 18 October 1990 90 lli.n.
Dixie back tonight as are Subterranean Homesick Blues and I'll Remember You. Real
surprise comes towards the end of the first set when the band are joined by Lennie

The last night in New York sees more changes, Dixie remains but tonight it's

followed by To Be Alone With You and Joey. All three of the Red Sky numbers, so far
n performed live, straddle another interesting acoustic set of Dark As A Dungeon, She
Belon&s To Me, It's Alright Ma and Love Minus Zero. Second set sees Shooting Star
and Tight Connection back as is the Saxophone, this time for Gotta Serve Somebody
and All Along The Watchtower. It's party night and the whole of Lennie Kravitz band
r are up for the Highway 61, Maggies Farm finale.

SAIIDSTORE AMPHITHEATRE,BOBBER SPRIBGS 24 .July 1986 PA Tape 60 ain.


This particular tapes existence was first revealed to me by the publication of
Tangled Up In Tapes Revisited. It was however established at the time that the tape
was not in general circulation, well now it is. This excellent quality recording
catohes the last hour or so of Dylan's set from Rainy Day Women through to the end
of the show. Includes the only performance of Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat with the
Heartbreakers.
Meanwhile back on the road:
JUBILEE AUDITORiml, EDMOIITOB 12 August 1990 85 ain.
Opening show from the tour before last. An otherwise mundane set list is turned into
something of an essential show due to the inclusion of two numbers. If it weren't
enough to feature the unique -performance of the Beatles Nowhere Man this one also
sees The Water Is Wide gracing the acoustic set.
JUBILEE AUDITORiml, EDIIOBTOR 13 August 1990 95 ain.
After last nights adventurous inclusions its back to a very staid selection. The
only relatively unusual number featured being a repeat for the cover of No More One
More Time. ·
ll>SQUE THEATRE, RICIDIOIID 21 October 1990 85 llin.
This one marks the first of the post G.E. era, and on tonights evidence it sounds as
if he will take a lot of replacing1 things thankfully do soon improve. The Dixie
instrumental returns and it looks like Dylan thinks he's still on the Summer tour
with Desolation Row and Shooting Star both back in favour.
SYRIA ll>SQUE, PITISBORG 22 October 1990 80 ain.
The first post Beacon and departure of GE Smith show I got to hear. Its certainly
not the most exciting show of the tour but better than I feared. Tracklisting hone
too adventurous though with most of the changes being in the form of reintroducing
old favourites like Positively 4th Street, Shelter From The Storm and .Just Like A
Woman. The acoustic set does feature a rare outing for To Ramona.
IIOBICIPAL AUDITORiml, CBAllLESTOB 23 October 1990 90 llin.
Another fairly mundane mixture seeing a few more numbers that had been rested for a
while returning to the set. Tonight its the turn of My Back Paies, Knockin On
Heavens Door and the acoustic Wagoners Lad. The new album still being given little
representation with only two numbers TV Talkin Song and Red Sky making it tonight.
TAD SilITII COLISEOK, OD"ORD 25 October 1990 90 ain.
When I first saw the set list for this one I was most keen to hear the tape. A show
which opens with ZZ Tops My Heads In Mississippi and also features My Back Pages and
Every Grain Of Sand has got to be worth a listen. When it also has the only, as far
as I know, live version of Oxford Town well you just gotta hear it.
COLEMAII COLISEOK, TUSCALOOSA 26 October 1990 100 llin.
Tonights show is started with, of all things, Hank Williams' Hey Good Lookin. My
Back Pages, Joey and Knockin On Heavens Door all also feature in a new look opening
set. Acoustic numbers include She Belongs To Me and Two Soldiers.
MEKORIAL GYMRASiml, BASBVILLE 27 October 1990 90 llin.
The ZZ Top cover again opens, repeats too for My Back Pages, Queen .Jane Approx-
imately and .Joey. Oh Mercy gets as much coverage with, What Good Am I? As Under The
Red Sky does with Wiggle Wiggle.
COLISEOK, ATIIDS 28 October 1990 95 llin.
Yet another very u.:adventurous set. The lucky punters tonight get treated to the
inclusion of all three usual closers- Highway 61, Maggies Farm and Watchtower! On
the plus side Tomorrow Is A Long Time is back in.
MEMORIAL AUDITORiml, LEXIBGTOB 2 Boveaber 1990 90 ain.
A different short instrumental opens this one, I've seen it suggested as being
Shenedoah but not 100% convinced on that. I'll Be Your Baby Tonight makes a welcome
return and all three Red Sky numbers make it onto this one.
SIU AKERA, CAltBOBDALE 3 Bovell.her 1990 85 ain
A short instrumental of Old McDonald Had A Farm kicks this one off! The usual three
from Red Sky see off Oh Mercys' What Was It You Wanted and What Good Am I? Love
Minus Zero back as first acoustic number.

THIIUY NINE -
FOX THKATRE. ST. LOIUS 4 November 1990 90 llin.
The o~ener tonight is a repeat of the Shenendoah(?) instrumental. Also returning to
the first set are Silvio, I'll Be Your Baby Tonight and You're A Bi~ Girl Now. All
three of the Red Sky numbers get featured as does a slowed up Everything Is Broken.
CHICK EVANS FI~BOUSE. DE ICALB 6 November 1990 85 ain.
Its the turn of ZZ Top's My Heads In Mississippi to open this show. Seeing The Real
You, Watching The River Flow and I'll Remember You get back in tonight. She Belongs
To Me again features in the acoustic set, highlight there though has to be the
inclu~Lon of Visions Of Johanna. The most disappointing aspect of this leg of the
tour must be scant regard given to Under The Red Sky numbers, again at this show its
the same three numbers so far performed live.
CHIC.AGO THEATRE. CHIC.AGO 9 November 1990 95 min.
A decent show but again its hardly an inspiring set list. Repeats of Lay Lady Lay,
I'll Be Your Baby Tonight, My Back Pages, Shooting Star, Knockin On Heavens Door and
an acoustic Song To Woody.
RIVERSIDE THEATRE. MILWAUICEE 10 November 1990 95 min.
Much of the same although back in tonight are Positively Fourth Street, Desolation
Row, Joey and Every Grain Of Sand.
llll.ARTON CENTRE. EAST LANSING 12 November 1990 95 min.
Totally new opener on this one. Well new to me anyway, probably called I Wanna Go
Home. No other great surprises but things still being shaken ur with What Good Am I,
Watching The River Flow, Political World and Tears Of Rage al back tonight. Almost
as an oversight Wiggle Wiggle is sole representative of Red Sky.
UD .AKER.A. DAYTON 13 November 1990 100 min.
Pretty standard fare again with Just Like A Woman, I'll Remember You, Everything Is
Broken and Seeing The Real You At Last all returning. The acoustic To Ramona also in
again.
BR.AIDEB AUDITORIUM, NORMAL 14 November 1990 100 min.
Another different instrumental to start this one. To Be Alone With You, Shelter From
The Storm and You're A Big Girl Now all get their turns tonight.
8 MUSIC BALL. CLEVELAND 17 November 1990 85 •in.
A The tour is winding down and unfortunately things do not seem to be looking up.
Tonight seeing the return of Most Likely You Go Your Way, Simple Twist Of Fate, What
Good Am I and Silvio! Some consolation in that the acoustic set has Love Minus Zero,
• Song To Woody and Desolation Row · .
a
FOOTNOTE: The poor quality Mesa 12/9/90 tape reported sometime back has now been
replaced by a much better quality recording.

The Wilburys 'She's my Baby' video is very similar to 'Handle With Care', though Bob
does get· to show his prowess on a bike. How he ever got to the concerts I'll never
know. Look out for the Arena special on Van Morrisort, · there Is been a preview
involving Bob. It has been described to me by two people, one said how wonderful he
looked, the other how awful. They duet on 'One Irish Rover'.
The audience videos range over 3 years, back to 1987, a chance to remember the gteat
shows that Dylan and the Petty b~nd put on in Europe. None of the films really stand
comparison to the best films from that tour, but do give a reminder of the special
atmosphere·.

At best the film probably deserves more than 2 for distance, but then it's not
usually at its closest. Shot from Dylans left, the main problem is finding a
consistent clear view through the heads. There is one song from the Petty set
included.

From Dylan's left, you get to 'see him knees up filling % the screen. Usually a clear
steady view, though a few heads from time to time. The film captures the atmosphere
of the '87 tour! a personal favourite. The sound is good, perhaps well redubbed.
Includes most (al?) of the McGuinn and Petty sets.

Cut Kid: Joey.
Shot from Dylan's right, there is a clear but distant view of most of the stage. At
closest Dylan full length fills \ screen, but the zoom frequently pulls further
back. There are a couple of minor irritations in that the film is a little out of
focus and on a slight slant. Again includes most or all of the McGuinn and Petty
sets. You'll gather that I've no inclination to check exactly how much of these sets
are included, or anywhere to do so even if I had.

Fairly high to Dylan's left, we get a clear if distant view of the stage. Dylan full
length fills \ screen. The sound is good by video standards, and the version of
Hattie Carroll particularly splendid. Again a large segment of the McGuinn/Petty
sets.

From high to Dylan's left and close when zoomed in. Mostly a steady view, exceft
when exuberant Parisiens, no doubt fortified by anis and steak £rites, wave their
arms about. A film with a lot of nice shots and some good camera work.

been a nice, if short, film. .

The first two songs are filmed from close, but the cameraman has difficulty with
finding a view through all the heads, and is forced further back to get a clear
view. From Dylan's right, from waist up he fills 2/3 of the screen. Even here the
film is sometimes unsteady. The sound is also distorted, and this seems to get worse
towards the end. Either that or my tolerance level dropped.

FORTY ONE -
And finally back up to date, in a hell of a rush and just in:

It Takes a Lot To Laugh: In the Garden: Like a Rolling Stone: Blowing In The Wind:
Highway 61.
Shot from above; and slightly to Dylan's right, this is a fine film. You get a clear
view of the stage, and of the top of Bob's hat. This hat looks just like that worn
by Tony Garnier and the other guitarist, it looks like a real 'boys own' outing.
Good use of the zoom makes this an interesting film to watch.

You: Like a Rolling Stone: The Times They Are A Changing: Highway 61.
The first two songs are· soundtrack only over some nice still shots from the show.
Another fine film, featuring an animated Dylan. From his left, he fills 3/4 screen
from waist up. A little dark, but otherwise a clear and steady view, nice use of the
zoom, and particularly good to see the saxaphonist on Serve Somebody. Well worth
getting.

Shot from Dylans left with a clear view from above, this film has a particularly
good picture. The only minus is the muddy sound. Lots of good use of the zoom, and
overall a really nice film.

I've had some information, for which I am particularly grateful, about films from
the States during the autumn of 1990. I haven't seen these films, and so far as I'·m
aware they haven't been converted to PAL. However I'm including them because the
information is reliable, and to help make the column more complete especially for·
U.S.A. readers. More similar information would be very welcome.

8rfl)l/!lJEmtl!BllJ!P&
LOS ANGELES FORUM, 1 March 1990 15 llin.
At long last the guest spot at Tom Petty's show is allowed to be heard. First two
numbers are 'Rainy Day Women' and 'I'm Movin On', which feature our man as, or
sharing lead vocal, while the other two songs see Dylan's contribution limited only
to ~uitar backing to Petty and Springsteen. Hardly a major tape but an interesting
oddity all the same.
RIVERPARXAMPHITHEATRE, TULSA 4 September 1990 85 ain.
'Most Likely You Go Your Way' is back as Ofener to a set which also features 'I
Believe In You', 'Tomorrow Is A Long Time and 'Man of Peace'. Further treats
include 'Every Grain Of Sand' and an acoustic 'Trail Of the Buffalo'. So far the
only tape that I can locate from this show cuts the end of 'Highway 61 Revisited'.
FAIR P~ MUSIC BALL DALLAS 6 September 1990 90 ain.
The tracklistings I've seen for this show have contained as the sixth song an
unusual number entitled 'Blame It On Me'. Well don't get too excited because it
ain't. The song is in fact 'Man Of Peace'. Must be some crossed wires somewhere. The
tape does however, feature another cover of 'Willin''·
SUN.CU GARDER THEATRE, SAB ANTOBIO 8 Septeaber 1990 90 llin.
A reasonable tape gets somewhat spoilt by a very noisy audience. That's a shame as
there are a few decent numbers on this one. Repeats for 'Willin'' and 'Every Grain
Of Sand' as well as 'I Believe In You' and 'Friend To The Devil'.
PAI.KER AUDITORIUK, AUSTIB 9 Septeaber 1990 90 llin.
Seems that 'Willin'' and 'Every Grain' are now becoming regulars. Also featured on
this one though are 'Desolation Row', 'Shooting Star' and a rare outing for 'Just
Like Tom Thumbs Blues'.
OVERS AUDITORIUM, CBAHLESTOB 31 October 1990 90 llin.
The Dixie instrumental and 'Tangled Up In Blue' open this one. Also featured are
'I'll Be Your Baby Tonight' and acoustic versions of 'Desolation Row' and 'Two
Soldiers'.
UNIVERSITY OF IOWA, IOWA CITY 8 Boveaber 1990 95 llin.
Tonights set list contains nothing out of the ordinary but that doesn't detract too
much from what turns out to be a fine show. The acoustic set is especially good on
this one; including 'Desolat.ion Row', 'John Brown' and 'Knockin' On Heavens Door'
PALACE THEATRE, COLUMBUS 16 Boveaber 1990 100 llin.
Another interesting tape. Show's which open with 'Absolutely Sweet Marie' often turn
out to be good ones and this is no exception. A couple of seldom played numbers in
'Clean Cut Kid' and 'Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You' help too I suppose.
Also included on this one are 'My Back Pages', 'I Believe In You' and 'Joey'.
The arrival of the above tapes leaves only a handful from the shows August to
November to do the rounds. I am assured all the missing concerts DID get taped so it
shouldn't be too long before the final ones are doing the rounds.
And sq its back to Europe for the fourth tour in under two years:
BALLER-STADOB, ZURICH 28 January 1991 90 llin.
First night of another European tour and with a largely new band in support. A
couple of new songs for the never endin~ tour make it in tonight, an almost acoustic
-electric 'God Knows' and an acoustic Bob Dylan's Dream'. Also included are 'The
Man In Me' and 'Wiggle Wiggle'. With very few exceptions tonights set will be
virtually the standard for the whole tour!
FOREST 'RATIONAL, BRUSELLS 30 January 1991 85 llin.
It's not until mid way through the acoustic set that anything is changed from the
previous night. There is a rather effective 'Everything Is Broken' and the crowd get
treated to an extra encore of 'All Along The Watchtower'.
VREDENBURG, UTRECHT 31 January 1991 75 llin.
Another rushed performance of what is becoming a pretty familiar set list. Minor
changes since Brussels only really concern the acoustic set and the encores. Listen
out for a largely unsuccessful and probably unintentioal attempt to turn 'Don't
Think Twice' into a mass singalong.

SECC BALL 3, GLASGOW 2 February 1991 90 ain.


Again few chanses, though the European favourite 'Silvio' has been dropped in favour
of 'Stuck Inside Of Mobile', and 'Watchtower' replacing 'Ballad Of a Thin Man',
exciting stuff! An effective electric encore of 'Masters Of War' closes the show.
SECC BALL 3, GLASGOW 3 February 1991 85 ain.
This show sees the only really major changes to the now 'standard set list'. A short
Scottish flavoured instrumental opens followed by 'Subterranean Homesick Blues',
'What Was It You Wanted', 'River Flow' and 'Positively 4th St'. Later 'Red Sky',
'Just Like A Woman' and 'Political World' get tried out. If the band sounded under
rehearsed and disjointed on the previous shows you just gotta hear 'Positively 4th
Street' from this one.
THE PODIT DEPOT, DUBLIII 5 February 1991 85 ain.
After the second Glasgow show its obviously been decided to abandon the ever chang-
ing set list and its back to the standard set. Minor variations being the inclusion
of 'Rainy Day Women' 'Gates Of Eden' and 'Hattie Carroll'. .
DUHDOHALDICE BOWL, BELFAST 6 February 1991 90 ain.
Playing his first show in Belfast for 25 years he sounds like he really means it.
No major changes to the set, but that doesn't detract from a fine sounding show. A
real bonus is the duet with Van Morrison on Van's own 'Tupelo Honey'.
BAIIK:ERSIIITH ODEOB, LOMDOB 8 February 1991 90 ain.
The first night of this years residency at the Odeon and hopes are hi$h, Unfortun-
ately those hopes go largely unfulfilled. Again its that standard set with the major
surprise of the evening being the electric piano which comes into play all too
briefly on 'What Good Am I' and 'God Knows'.
BAIIK:ERSIIITH ODEOB, LOMDOB 9 February 1991 90 ain.
Any lingering hopes of major set list changes are effectively squashed tonight with
much more of the same. At least its a much better performance for the second half of
tonights show though, with things really taking off mid-way through the acoustic
set. The piano again features with a fine version of 'Shooting Star'.
BAIIK:ERSIIITH ODEOB, LOMDOB 10 February 1991 80 ain.
Another virtually identical set list gets rattled through in what could hardly be
described as a really great performance. The only redeeming feature being an even
better version of 'Shooting Star' at the piano.
IIAMNERSIIITH ODEON, LOMDOB 12 February 1991 90 ain.
Probabli my favourite show from this latest tour. A ~reat opening with 'Tangled Up
In Blue and a further bonus in that 'The Man In Me' is rested in favour of a piano
backed 'Simple Twist Of Fate'. 'What Good Am I' also gets the piano treatment and
there are fine versions of 'Tomorrow Is A Long Time' and 'Desolation Row'.
IIAMNERSIIITH ODEOB, LOMDOII 13 Februaq 1991 90 ain.
The Tangled Up In Blue opener is retained but otherwise things are largely back to
normal.
IIAMNERSIIITH ODEOII, LOMDOB 15 February 1991 90 ain.
Back as openers are 'Most Likely You Go Your Way' and 'Lay Lady Lay', but this time
they are performed at the Piano. Again there are few changes to the standard set
list with 'Gotta Serve Somebody' and 'Under The Red Sky' re turnfng , 'Love Minus
Zero' and 'Girl From The North Country' are introduced to the acoustic set and 'It
Ain't Me Babe' is in at first encore.
HAIUIDSIIITH ODEOB, LORDOII 16 February 1991 90 ain.
The piano opening numbers are retained in what turns out to be another of the better
shows on th~ tour. It's sadly another poor set list with few changes but things seem
to work a lot better tonight. Rolling Stone Ron Wood joins the band for three
numbers in .. the second half.
HAIUIDSIIITH ODEOB, LORDOB 17 February 1991 90 ain
It's the last night and expectations are high. So what you get turns out to be some-
thing of a let down. Things never really get goin$ tonight and yet another almost
identical set hardly makes for a great end to this leg of the tour. The biggest
ch~er of the night greets Harrison and Wood as the come on-stage at the death.
PAINTDS IIILL THEATER, OVIIIGS KILLS 22 February 1991 80 ain.
Back to the US for the second of two 'warm-ups' before heading South to play shows
in Mexico. From tonights evidence it appears that little rehearsinf of any new songs
has taken place since the London shows. At least the piano is stil in favour.

FREEMIEEL IN'

First off must be the Grammy, where Dylan is presented with his award by the
wonderful Jack Nicholson, who gives Bob an introduction which includes a short
resume, in film, of Dylan's career. Dylan then sings 'Masters of War' with the
present band. During this Dylan doesn't appear to open his eyes, but gives a real
growly slurred vocal. We then move onto the best bit, first Jack gives a further
short speech whilst Dylan looks bemused, plays with his hat, turns around, then
makes his acceptance speech. Holding the award in one hand as if about to drop it,
he talks hesitatingly about his father. At one point he stops for what seems like an
age, staring fixedly down, until the gap is so long the audience start to laugh,
when he continues. Some have said he was drunk, but I believe it was a performance,
almost Chaplinesque, which works beautifully. An essential bit of film for all Dylan
watchers.
I hope ever7one saw the Arena special. As we knew from the preview Dylan did 'One
Irish Rover with Van Morrison and he did two other full songs 'Crazy Love', sharing
the vocals, and 'Foreign Windows' where Dylan backed Van on harmonica. The whole
programme was pleasant, gentle even. John Lee Hooker was excellent.
A short piece 6f 'official' footage from Tourhout, a fragment of 'What Was It You
Wanted?', was shown on Belgian T.V. Not essential stuff. And did you know there were
two versions of the 'Most Of The Time' video, one 5 mins.40, the other 4 mins. 47?
No I haven't bought a stopwatch, it gives the times on the film credits.
Before I start on the flood of '91 films, older stuff is still creeping around

From above Dylan's right shoulder, so it catches what light there is during the
acoustic set, this film, like others from Paris, is pretty good if a little distant.
We get a generally good view after a few problems at first. Nice sound quality.

For a change this is filmed from below, to Dylan's right, and a barrier obscures
the view below Dylan's waist. Mostly steady, a little dark, and a few arms and heads
in the way from time to time.

The view varies depending on whether the camera can get a clear view through the
crowd. From nearly straight on Dylan fills\ screen. Nice colours especially during
daylight.
As expected the first of the '91 films are starting to circulate, well done to those
who overcame the hurdles put in their way, not all by security or the efforts of
Dylan to play in pitch b Iack conditions. Remember, Bob, the camera technology is
improving, but a hyper-active front row is still your best bet to foil the filmers.

Isn't the lighting 8ettin~ ridiculous? If this is to deter people from filming, as
has been sugge s t ed , it ain t working. Maybe with better s.ta~e lights the cameras
would be easier to spot. Just a thought. Back to this film, it's very close, with

U&fiJITJll!Plt@ JOHN GREEN.

BfiJJVIIMtl!BITJIPSJ
A brief respite from the continuing flood of tour tapes with three new studios tapes
to start with this time.
BILLY SESSIONS, MEXICO & B1JRBAlll Jan/Feb 1973 95 ain
Last summer a very pleasant tape of Billy outtakes from the Mexico January 1973
sessions first came into general circulation. Since then it has been mentioned more
than once that there were more outtakes (in the hands of a collector), this time
from the Burbank sessions. As is often the case with these rumours it turns out to
be true and here is the proof. The first side of this- 'new' tape is a repeat of the
original Mexico tape, albeit containing slightly more 'studio chat' than was pre-
viously evident. Side 2 however is were we really get the new stuff,·firstly there
is another version of Billy which belongs with the Mexico sessions. The balance is
from the Burbank February 1973 session and includes some very interesting takes.
There are three versions of 'Knockin On Heavens Door', although you would pushed to
describe them all as voe-al takes. Two more versions of Billy, several other 'new'
short vocal tracks and instrumentals also all feature.
OH MERCY OUTrAXES March/April 1989 45 ain
Now doing the rounds is this fairly magnificent tape from the Oh Mercy sessions.
The eleven song tape features alternate versions of several songs which made the
final release of 'Oh Mercy', 'What Was It.You Wanted', 'What Good Am I', 'Most Of
The Time', 'Everything Is Broken', 'Political World', 'Shooting Star' and 'Disease
Of Conceit'. Also included are early versions of two songs which later saw the
light Of Day on 'Under The Red Sky', 'God Knows' and 'Born In Time'. The other two
songs are an alternate version of 'Series Of Dreams' and another great new song
going under the title of 'Di~ity'. It's a shame the circulating tape is shorter
than originally expected and is not quite in top notch quality, essential stuff all
the samef
TRAVELING lflLBURY WOll TAPE April/May 1990 45 ain
Some six months or so back a seven song 25 minute taee of "rough mixes" from the
second Wilbury album came into circulation. Well, this is more of the same, the
seven songs from that original tape are again here but so too are the other three
which made the final release, 'Wilbury Twist', 'New Blue Moon' and 'Cool Dry Place'.
If that were not enough also included are 'Runaway', which made one of the single
releases and two completely new numbers 'Maxine' and 'Like A Ship'. The latter
features a fine Dylan vocal and is the highlight of the tape. I must admit I prefer
these rough mixes to the final results _Lynne managed for the released versions.
And so back to clear up most of the missing shows from those tours before the last
few tours!
JUBILEE AUDITORIUM, CALGARY 15 August 1990 95 'llin
It seems to have taken an age for these two August shows to get around. No matter,
it was worth the wait with tonights show featuring some really powerful perform-
ances. Good sound quality and a reasonable set list too, 'Ear,ly Morning Rain',
'Desolation Row', 'Tears Of Rage' and 'It Takes A Lot To Laugh' all included.
JUBILEE AUDITORIUM,. CALGARY 16 August 1990 90 ain
The other missing Calgary show is not quite as impressive as the previous evenings
performance and features little out of the ordinary. 'I Believe In You', 'What Was
It You Wanted' & an acoustic 'One Too Many Mornings' all make it onto the set list.
CIVIC CDfIER, OD.AROMA CITY 5 Septeaber 1990 40 ain
This is yet another tape that has been noticeable by its absence for sometime.
Unfortunately it looks as though it's another concert where we are destined not· to
hear the whole show, the only available recording so far unearthed ends during the
acoustic set. At least its fairly reasonable quality and features repeats of the
'Old Macdonald' instrumental, 'I Want You' and 'Trail Of The Buffalo'
VARSITY GYMRASIUM, BOONE 30 October 1990 90 min
Really sortini out the stragglers this month. Another pleasant enough October tape
has band versions of 'The Man In Me', ~I've Been All Around This World' and 'Leopard
Skin Pill Box Hat'; plus acoustic Hard Rain, Two Soldiers and Desolation Row.
FOX THEATRE, DETROIT 18 November 1990 90 min
Final night from the October/November leg of the tour features a unique opening with
an attempt at 'Buckets Of Rain'. Hearing this performance its not entirely
surprising that it turns out to be a one-off. 'Every Grain Of Sand', 'Joey' and
'Shooting Star' all still regulars in the set too. The acoustic numbers include To
'Ramona' and 'Desolation Row'.
- TDIENTY SIX -
CAPITOL THEATRE, VILLUIISPOR.T 21 · Fe~ruary 1991 85 ain
The first of the post Hanmersmith 'warm-ups' and really nothing more than a
continuation of the now very familiar European set list.
The arrival of the above! tour tapes sees all the 1990 and early 1991 tours
circulating with only two exceptions, ie. Sao Paulo January,18 and a complete
Oklahoma September 5. The Mexican 1991 shows are another story! Since that time of
course the tour has been back on the road.
SADGER. THEATRE, BEV OJU.EABS 19 April 1991 85 ain
Those hoping for a renaissance following the disappointments of shows earlier in the
year are not going to find much evidence in these opening nights from the US. The
band still seems to lack the energy and drive of the GE Smith lead combo, and the
set lists are still very much as for the Februar7 shows. OK so these show do start
with a better than feared version of 'Bew Morning No evidence of the electric piano
on this tape, although it does feature on later shows,
Oil IIOURTAill AIIPIIITHEATRE, BIDillGIWI 20 April 1991 85 ain
very much as New Orleans. 'New Morning' is still opening but dropped are 'Trail Of
The Buffalo' and 'Shooting Star'. Some consolation in the return of 'Positively 4th
Street'. There is however little else to recoomend this show either in terms of
performance or song selection.
SUBRISE THEATRE, SUBRISE 27 April 1991 85 ain
Of the early tapes I have heard this one is probably the best sounding so far.
That's really no great achievement amongst a pretty ordinary bunch. The set lists
continues to be' very rigid with the only real variations in the acoustic set.
Tonight sees a pleasant version of 'John Brown'.
STATE ONIVllSITY, STORY BR.OOK: 7 llay 1991 90 ain
Another very mundane set list and performance.
PALACE THEATRE, ALBAlff 8 llay 1991 85 ain
The band sets continue to be rigid and lacking in any real drive, though the
acoustic sets are better ·(tonights is very good indeed). I suppose the presence of
fine versions of 'Visions Of Johanna' and 'To Ramona' help somewhat.
MATTHEWS AKDA, BOSTOW 9 llay 1991 85 ain
ToniRht sees another enjovable acoustic set which contains 'She Belongs to Me',
'Don T t Think Twice' and 1 Hard Rain' • As to the bands set, I' 11 refrain from
comment.
CHARLES IVES Cf.lull, D.A1IBOllY 11 llay 1991 75 ain
The Dixie instrumental returns to open the standard set, only other change of note
beinJ 'Simple Twist Of Fate' replacing 'The Man In Me'. Seems like even Bob is
getting fed up with proceedings as he finishes 'Rolling Stone' and leaves without
encores.
Well that was a pretty depressing bunch for you all. Lets hope things pick up
dramatically before Europe •

•••••
Bob seems.to be everywhere at the moment on the telly. The Late Show allowed him 10
minut~s and no doubt everyone saw our representatives explain away their various
levels of obsessiveness. Don't people appear to have fat faces when they get close
to a camera. This programme made me feel we were involved in some kind of freak
show, and I'm afraid Bob seems to have got himself involved in one as well with the
Wilburys. They're turning into a novelty act with the latest video, for 'The Wilbury
Twist•. A cast of a thousand stars have fun with a silly song. It's time to stop.
'l~side Out' is a marginal imfcrovement~ but dull. However there is one high spot on
the promotional video front, Series o~ Dreams•. This one is not to be missed!

A good clear view, though dark of course. Few heads and mostly steady, and you can
see the whole stage through the murk. It looks like a good show, with Jackson

This could have been an excellent film •. But there's usually a but. After the well
lit U.S.A. shows, the lights go out over Europe. This one seems to be the darkest so
far. Actually I was a little surprised to hear of a film from Utrecht at all, having
heard horrendous stories of the security going in. Filmed from above we get a
completely clear and mostly steady view, but of what? Murk, that's what. Plenty of
use of zoom and movement round the screen. When close, knees up fills the screen.
Frustrating game this.

A somewhat jostled cameraman attempts bravely to get Dylan in the ficture. Even when
he succeeds it's not always possible to be sure that he has. Fairy close, waist up
filling the screen, and steadier during the acoustic set. During 'Rolling Stone' the
camera dives for cover to avoid the spotlights directed onto the audience.

'Shooting Star' and 'Rolling Stone' •.

Well they said it couldn't be done! Once bitten twice shy. Back by popular demano
(someone asked didn't they?) The ORIGINAL Magnetic inover! I guess I'm older and
hopefully wiser now. Anyway I intend to list the facts and mention the rumours where
possible. Lets face facts, some of the stuff is dross, and I intend to tell you
which. First the DASH-F code. If you liked it I'm sorry but I never really under-
stood it so its gone. Back are the times, also my little abbreviations. In case
you've forgot they are:
(ei) Incomplete, less than half the song
{) End of son~ missing, probably less then a minute
{bs) Start missing, probably less than a minute
{) A break in recording mid song
{f) Fragment, less than 1 minute of a song
{p) Dylan on piano. ·

Position, I am always ionna base this on what we can see. Stage right means the

Picture height should be self explanatory. Darkness, you'll have to trust my eyes,
I' 11 try to base this on OVERALL light and not just, "can you see the whites oh is
eyes" stuff. SOUND QUALITY: This is a problem, I have started to list films in
stereo. Unfortunately few peo~le can make stereo copies, so you may not be able to
locate a stereo version, but if you can get near to source some are. Also some films
are now recorded·monuarally onto hi fi channels. This does improve the sound so do
take note of hi fi films (though again I cannot guarantee their availability, it
depends on your source. Wherever possible the films quoted are from source, at times
of course this is not possible •••• Lost! So with tears in our eyes and hope in our
hearts, lets get on with the show.

A very watchable film, once again from the balcony and bit dark in places,
particularly the acoustic stuff. It's virtually straight on, Dylan thighs up filling

AGAIN shot from the balcony, a little dark, this ones straight on and with Dylan
knees up filling the screen. The first 3 tracks are wasted while the taper tries a
mega-large lens, this results in a head and shoulders shot though y~u need infra
red specs to make it out I! The taper also has the leftovers of a cough which can be
heard at times. Particularly violent coughs result in camera shake. Not the best,
though the second electric half is good. I'd probably pass though unless you gotta

Amongst various clips, Lambchop and a very shifty looking Dere~ Barker talking about
I' Bootlegs. I was there when this was filmed and watched Derek manfully try and hold
the back the Beeb. They only wanted to know about Bootlegs and this is what we get.
They have even cut in film from an outdoor market of a guy selling bootleg cassettes
My favourite bit though is where they credit Wilfred MELLONSI Bit of a boob hey! A
further 10 second clip was shown later if you are really keen.

superb, one of the nicest moments I have ever seen on video, we even get close ups
of the chord changes!

JOffN GREEN.

g. Since the last 'ISIS' three further legs of the never-ending tour have come and
gone. Predictably the majority of the new tapes here come from those shows: First
56 though a variation on the Oh Mercy sessions.

an SERIES OF DREAMS "new tape version" April/May 1989 5 ain


ge A new different version of the Oh Merer outtakes now doing the rounds. Very much the
y. same feel as the official cut but various lyrical changes and probably a different
backing track too. That now means we have four versions of this song, the other
three being, the official release, the Oh Mercy outtakes tape, and the take on the
30 five track European CD sampler. .
e TOWNSHIP AUDITORIUM, COLUMBIA 1 May 1991 85 ain
@, Another US show from the tour before the tour before the tour that has just
a finished. Very much the standard set list for the time with the only real change
ke being the inclusion of an acoustic Ballad Of Hollis Brown.
n. SALEK CIVIC CENTER, SALEK 2 May 1991 85 ain
ry Another of those Spring US shows now about. No great shakes still but probably
better than many from that tour. Still the usual set list, minor variations in the
37 inclusion of an acoustic Gates Of Eden and a piano backed I Believe In You.

@: MEMORIAL COLISEUM, llIBSTOB SALEK 4 May 1991 90 ain


Plenty more of the same although this one also sounds a decent show in comparison to
*, what ~e have come to expect from these shows. Standard fare although it is good to
a hear a real slowed up version of It Takes A Lot To Laugh back in the set.
me RALEIGH MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM, RALEIGH 5 May 1991 85 ain
More changes tonight with a decent I'll Remember You returning to the opening set.
Positively 4th Street and Shooting Star get back in too. The only tape I've heard of
this show is slightly incomplete cutting during Maggies Farm.
A brief break from the concerts for his most recent interview:
00 WESTWOOD OBE SPECIAL THE BOOTLEG SERIES broadcast 19 May 1991 150 ain
a There is a new product to sell so the media gets treated to another interview.
la Elliot Mintz speaks to our man about his life, his art and the box-set. That
interview and the box-set itself form the basis of this three hour special. The
00 actual new interview segments get spread very thinl{ between the music and the
-to advertisements. Fortunately most of those edited out o the tape I got to hear.
P.ALAEUR, ROME 6 .June 1991 80·ain
.oo Of the set lists I've seen and the tapes I've heard from the European shows this has
to be one of the most interesting of the lot. Shame that the performance is down on
some of the later shows. Several unusual numbers in tonight, an appropriate opening
of When I Paint My Masterpiece, and as far as I know a unique acoustic version of
- TWENTY TWO -
Homeward Bound, an as yet unidentified electric number and a piano enco~e of I Want
You. Encouraging to see so many changes in the set at last.
PARC BORD, BOLOGBA 7 June 1991 95 ain
Tonight sees the set list settte back to almost what is expected. The show starts
off very roughly but by the fourth song things are definitely starting to pick up
and it develops into a very good "stadium rock" concert. Man Of Peace, Shelter From
The Storm, Watching The River Flow, Just Like A Woman and I'll Remember You all back
in favour. Still trying to find a tape where you cant hear the rain on the mies!
PALASTRUSSARDI,Mil.AB 8 June 1991-Dylan set 80 ain
PALASTRUSSARDI,Mil.AB 8 June 1991-Van Morrison set 10 ain
Last of the Italian "double bill" shows and Dylan joins Van's set after 45 minutes
to contribute harmonica whilst Van sings Whenever God Shines His Light and Enlighten
-ment. Dylan's set is another good hard rocking show with Shelter From The Storm
wisely retained. Back tonight too are Knockin On Heavens Door and acoustic versions
of Hattie Carroll and One Too Many Mornings.
STADTHALLE, On'EBBACR 19 June 1991 105 min
As with many of the recent shows its ragged, rough and slow starting early on but
improves as the show progresses. Tonight sees It Takes A Lot To Laugh, Leopard Skin
Pill Box Hat, Positively 4t~ St, Lenny Bruce and an acoustic Two Soldiers all in the
set. The piano seems definitely to be out of favour now and no sign of it at this or
any of the subsequent shows I've heard.
CIRCUS DORE, IIUBICR 21 June 1991 95 min
Another very good show. He is quite talkative tonight, check out the long spoken
introduction to Dont· Think Twice! Two Soldiers is still opening the acoustic set
and back too are When I Paint My Masterpiece, Man Gave Names To The Animals and
Knockin On Heavens Door.
STADTP.All, HAMBURG 23 June 1991 95 ain
This was the first tape that I got to hear which features the new set arrangement,
although the change started six nights earlier. Really weird to hear shows without
Rolling Stone, Blowin In The Wind and Maggies Farm, they really were all definitely
due a rest. Anyway tonight sees another slow start, just going through the motions
for the early numbers. Things certainly pick up later and it develops into a very
good show. Positively 4th Street is in as first encore!
CIRCUS, STOCDIOLII 25 June 1991 95 min
A somewhat disappointing show afte~ the previous few nights. Some good numbers but a
much more subdued performance than Hamburg sees things never really getting going.
I'll Be Your Baby, Leopard Skin and Heavens Door all return to the set.
CIRCUS, STOGmOLII 26 June 1991 95 min
This is certainly more like it and once the first few numbers are out of the way it
is again a very good show. Few real changes to the set list although Trail Of the
Buffalo, Hollis Brown and What Good Am I are all back in favour.
FESTIVAL, ULVOYA 28 June 1991 95 ain
Another most enjoyable shows sees When I Paint My Masterpiece and Lenny Bruce back
in the set. A very good acoustic set features Two Brothers and an almost manic
version of Dont Think Twice.
MIDTFYN FESTIVAL, RIBGE 29 June 1991 90 ain
The final show from Europe is a poorer performance than some of the previous, but
does still feature some sood moments. Sticking with the standard set list and only a
few variations, tonight its the turn of Rainy Day Women and Lenny Bruce. .
ROI.MAB STADIUM, BASHUA 6 July 1991 85 min I
This was the first concert I got to hear from this US tour and again its not a bad
show. The set list from the European tour is retained with no major changes. At
least a variation to the first six tonight with Homeward Bound replacing Lay Lady
Lay. This show also sees rare outings, well rare at recent shows, for Simple Twist
Of Fate and an acoustic Lakes Of Pontchartrain.
JOBES BEACH STATE P.All, VABTAUGH 11 July 1991 90 ain
Another one where things dont quite work. No great surprises in the set and a pretty
lack lustre show all round. I'll Be Your Baby and When I Paint My Masterpiece both
back tonight.
so
GARDER STATE ARTS CERTRE, HOLMDEL. 13 July 1991 90 ain
A big improvement over the ~revious show. Few changes to the set but a much better
performance. Lay Lady Lay is rested for Simple Twist Of Fate and Two Soldiers back
in the acoustic set, biggest treat though is the inclusion of Folsom Prison Blues.
Shame its not a particularly good version though.

It would have been nice to include details of the South American tour tapes in this
months issue. Circumstances however meant that they were not available by my dead-
line so they will have to wait until the next issue. I am assured that at least
partial tapes from all but one of those shows will soon be circulating. Anyway there
more than enough recent tour tapes currently doing the rounds, so off we go.
BASBVILLE IBTEKVIEV 2 Deceaber 1978 20 ain
A newly circulating taee of an interview in which Dylan chats with a female reporter
from Jacksonville·Flor1da. A fine quality tape but as Dylan strums a ritar throush-
out it is not always easy to hear the questions & answers. (For a ful transcription
of this interview see'Every Nerve Is Analysed' in this issue of 'ISIS'. .
GREAT WOODS9 MANSFIELD 2 July 1988 PA Tape 80 min
Another PA tape allowed into general circulation. Quality is not always as good dS
you might expect and there are serious problems with Subterranean Homesick Blues and
Silvio. Once it settles down though it is very good and with the exception of I
Shall Be Released, it features the whole show. Interesting to hear this performance
from the early days of the Never Ending Tour in comparison with the current output,
come back GE Smith! Anyway a few unusual numbers on this one notable Pretty Peggy-0
and Had A Dream About You Baby.
enough for variety and back to those concerts, firstly the Spring US tour:
MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM. GREENVILLE 22 April 1991 80 min
One from a few months back. Nothing special here in the set list, performance or the
recording quality. As usual on this leg the show includes Man In A Long Black Coat,
Under The Red Sky and of course the piano.
FOI,THEATE'R• ATLAHTA 23 April 1991 85 min
Comments very much as for the Greenville show. As with many shows on this leg the
only real highlights seem to come in the acoustic sets. One Too Many Mornings and
Bob Dylans Dream in that slot tonight.
CITY AUDITORIUM. MACON 24 April 1991 90 ain
Another straggler from that sering US tour. Like the Greenville and Atlanta tapes
quality is down on the usual high standard but still listenable. Also like the above
shows the performance is nothing special either.
THE CAMPUS POND• AMHERST 12 May 1991 80 ain
A concert that I'd heard rumoured to have been missed by the tapers finally shows
up. Better than some of the earlier shows on this leg but still hardly great stuff.
There remains one show from the above leg still to come in, but no time to wait so
its on to Europe:
OLYMPIC STADIUM. LJUBLJA!IA 10 June 1991 95 ain
An enjoyable tape even if the set list is somewhat ordinary. Continued minor changes
sees Ballad Of a Thin Man replacing Lay Lady Lay, Love minus Zero and Gates Of Eden
back in the acoustic set. ·
ZADJAB STADIUM. BELGRADE 11 June 1991 90 ain
These European concerts certainly do seem to be better than those earlier ones on
the previous leg, and after the customary ragged start this show is no exception.
Tonights second band set has something of an unfamiliar look to it with Heavens
Door, Rainy Day Women, Just Like A Woman, Shooting Star and One More Cup Of Coffee
all included.
SPORTSHALLE. LINZ 15 June 1991 95 ain
Purely in terms of the set list a wholly uninsp1r1ng show, even so it does have its
moments. Some unique chat, including more references to Madonna.
LIEDERHALLE STUTrGART 16 June 1991 90 min
First of t~e German shows. Tonight saw the introduction of the new 8-4-4-2 set
arrangement. No Rolling Stone for the first time in around three years! Blowin' and
Maggies Farm also taking a long needed break. When I Paint ~y Mas;erpiece, Leopard
Skin Pill Box Hat and an unusual version of Heavens Door all 1n tonight.
SPORTBALLE. ESSEN 18 June 1991 100 ain
Another enjoyable tape from the Europe though the set list is much as expected.
- 1"/ENTY ONE -
SCHLOSSROF, BAD KERGERTHEDI 22 J'une 1991 95 ain
If the opening few numbers at some recent shows have been a little sloppy this one
is positively shambolic. Things don't improve much either as the evening progresses.
The now standard set list~ thou~h this vision of Barbara Allen is not totally solo.
Another strange version ot Knockin On Heavens Door.
Again before this tour leg is sorted its on to the next in the US & Canada:
TANGLEWOOD MUSIC SHED, LENOX 4 J'uly 1991 90 ain
The opening night from this series of US shows sees a set list very much as per the
European tour. The continued minor switches see When I Paint My Masterpiece, I'll Be
Your Baby Tonight, Leopard Skin Pill Box Hat and What Good Am I all included.
GREAT WOODS PERFORMING ARTS CENTER, IWISFIELD 5 J'uly 1991 90 ain
A reasonable if unspectacular show in terms of both performance and the set list.
Two Soldiers does .make the acoustic set but otherwise its very much the norm.
HEW YO~ STATE FAIRGROUHD, SYRACUSE 9 J'uly 1991 100 ain
Hardly monumental set changes but certainly a little different to the normal. New
Morning gets rested for Tangled Up In Blue and Highway 61 is out for Maggies Farm.
Strangest change though is Man In A Long Black Coat at first encore.
I.All CHAMPLAIN FAIRGROUHDS, ESSEX JUlfCTIOII 10 July 1991 95 a.in
Although later to become a regular, Folsom Prison Blues made its first appearance at
this show. No other surprises but It Takes A Lot To Laugh, I Believe In You and an
acoustic Love Minus Zero all feature.
IC LIGHT AKPHITIIEATRE, PITTSBURGH 16 .July 1991 90 ain
It looks like the second song is now being varied most nights, about time Lay Lady
Lay got a break, Joey gets a rare outin~ in that slot tonight. A reasonable show
also sees Two Soldiers back in the acoustic set.
THE FLATS RAUTICA, CLEVELAHD 17 .July 1991 90 ain
The second number tonight is again one long missing from the set, and it's good to
hear Ponch & Lefty at anytime. Apart from getting It Takes A Lot To Laugh back the
rest is much as expected~
WOLF TRAP, VIDRA 19 J'uly 1991 90 ain
A decent show and a few more changes tonight sees Man In A Long Black Coat and
Maggies Farm back in the first set. Trail Of The Buffalo and John Brown make the
acoustic set.
WOLF TRAP, VIDRA 20 J'uly 1991 Pa Tape 65 ain
WOLF TRAP, VIENIIIA 20 July 1991 Audience Tape 90 ain
It's certainly unusual to get a PA tape before an audience tape from any particular
show but who's complaining. A very pleasant recording (from a mixing desk facility
that was supplied at this venue for use by the hard of hearing. It seems though that
some wag pluged in his D6 and taped most of what sounds a very good show) the
recording covers just over the first hour cutting as Folsom Prison Blues finishes.
I Dont Believe You and acoustic versions of Barbara Allen and Its All Over Baby Blue
all feature. There is nothing out of the ordinary as regards the additional numbers
yo be found on the audience tape.
KINGS DOMINION AMUSEMENT P~, DOSWELL 21 J'uly 1991 90 ain
Tonight again sees a very "ordinary" set list, not a bad show all the same. Dylan
certainly seems to be putting in a little more effort on these later July shows, I
Dont Believe You, Simple Twist Of Fate and Folsom Prison Blues all repeat. Anothe·r
of those shows where a decent tape is spoilt by a firework display going off in the
background.
THAMES RIVER PAVILIOII, GROTON 24 .July 1991 100 ain
This one sounds like a. good show with several variations to the usual set. I'll
Remember You, Maggies Farm and I Dont Believe You all in the first set. Folsom
Prison Blues still there and its a decent version too.
KINGSWOOD MUSIC THEATRE, MAPLE 26 .July 1991 95 ain
Another recommended show from July. With the exception of I' 11 Remember You and
Lenny Bruce the first set is back to the expected. Only slightly out of the ordinary
number in the second band set is Simple Twist Of Fate. The real treat though is in
the acoustic set, which includes the all too seldom performed Visions Of Johanna,
with an excellent performance from Dylan. :
DARIEN LilESIDE AMPHITHEATRE, CORFU 27 .July 1991 100 ain
Final show from this leg, and another decent one too. Slightly unfamiliar look to
the opening set which features Man In A Long Black Coat and Maggies Farm. Chan~es
not finished there with the welcome return of Song To Woody and Friend To The Devil.

This video is available as the complete Van Morrison set also. By no means as close
as the Milan video listed previously. This one is shot stage left from the win$s,
giving an obstructed view with Van full length and full screen. We get a clear view
of Dylan also. I found this interesting to watch, you can see Van motion for Dylan
to join the band for several minutes before he does. It's also plain to see that
Dylan tries to escape after track 1 but is restrained from doing so by Van. Worth
seeking out ,

No, this isn't a repeat, this is yet another film of that 'rare event' when Dylan

Balcony shot, full length, slightly stage right, rather a lot of bodies in the way
but good light. Sound a bit muddy though.

THE OTHER BITS
24-5-91 AUSTRALIAII TV TRIBUTE (SIXTY NIRUTES) 5.20
From the same people that brought us the hilarious George Negus interview this is a
real surprise. Basically bits of Don't look back and Renaldo & Clara, it does
feature a bit Quest and Isle of Wight (usual clip) BUT In there is the start of
Dylan appearance at the 63 March on Washington rally !!! But the BASTARDS overdubbed
with the official Blowin In The Wind ! ! ! Who DID this. Get them sacked, get them
executed WHERE'S THE FUCKIN' REST ! !!!
24-5-91 KOTTE R<>a RAI UllO ITALIAll TV 50.16
Pass on this unless you need more cliys of Renaldo and Clara and Don't look Back.
Does feature nice clips from the 78 'Film for Rome' but not complete. Amusing to see
Ginsberg talk and an Italian voice come out though!

CYBTIIIA GOODING 1962/GERDES NY 1961 30 ain
Some years back this t ape circulated with the five songs recorded at Cynthia
Goodings aeartment and a single number, Rangers Command, from Gerdes. Well, the tape
is now available with two extra numbers from Gerdes, San Francisco Bay and The Great
Divide. This new tape is also in appreciably better quality than the first copy. Now
where is the rest of the Gerdes tape?
(
MORUMBI STADIUM, SAO PAULO 18 .January 1990 95 ain
Almost two years after the show we finally get to hear a tape of this one. In fact
to be precise two tapes, there is a complete recording available and also a shorter
80 minute tape which misses the opening number as we 11 as the last two songs.
Trouble is, both tapes are dire quality, the shorter perhaps being marginally more
listenable than the complete tape. Any attempt at assessing quality of the
performance is impossible, at times even identifying what song is being performed is
not easy. No great surprises in the set list most of the regulars from that time
feature. Forever Young, I Want You and Tight Connection all also included.
ICISS STADIUM, BUDAPEST 12 June 1991 100 min
Another very enjoyable tape from the European tour. You' re A Big Girl Now in the
opening set, Knockin' On Heavens noor, Rainy Day Women and Shooting Star all in the
second band set. Crowd get treated to two acoustic encores instead of the usual one.
Major inclusion on this show has to be, When I First Came To This Country.
IMPERATOR, RIO DE .JANEIRO 21 August 1991 95 min
The first tape I ~et to hear from the last batch of South American is again a great
disappointment. Like the Sao Paulo tape sound quality is a level that makes listen-
ing a true test of endurance. What a s probably a very good show features a rare
outing for When Did You Leave Heaven. Rest of the set very much as the July USA
shows. I suggest you pass on this one and wait for the better tapes to come around.
GUITAR LEGENDS, SEVILLE 17 October 1991 45 min
Moving onto the appearance at the Spanish festival. Dylan joins Jack Bruces' band
for a pretty rough version of All Along The Watchtower. Switching to acoustic with
fine support from Richard Thompson an equally rough Boots Of Spanish Leather is next
ue. The version of Across the Borderline which follows is the highlight of the set.
Final song of this portion being a version of Answer Me My Love. Dylan then
introduces Keith Richard who shares vocals with him on a raucous version of Shake
Rattle and Roll. Exit Dylan stage right. He does return for the finale of I Can't
Turn You Loose, but his contribution is minimal. This one already available as an
audience tape as well as Radio and TV Broadcasts.
CY StEPHENS AUDITORIUM, AMES 2 Noveaber 1991 100 ain
Since hearing of the itowing reports from these shows I was naturally keen to hear
the tapes. Well this 1s the first one that arrived and what a treat it is. From the
opening lines of All Along The Watchtower its plain that this is a performance well
ahead of anything I've heard from the Never-Ending Tour in quite some time. The
vocal. performance of Dylan and the playing of the band all seems much better and
with the less rigid set lists back this to my ears is the best show of 1991 that
I've heard so far. No major surprises in the set list but a few old favourites
making welcomed reappearance's, Van Morrison's One Irish Rover, Watching The River
Flow, Across the Borderline and Answer Me are all included tonight.
ICI~ THEATER, VIUES BARRE 15 Boveaber 1991 100 ain
One from the back end of the USA tour and things still sound fine to me. Set list
continues to change and with the improved performances of both Dylan and the band
another very good show. Great to hear Senor in the set again after all these years.
Also in tonight are Tears Of Rage, Confidential To Me and Friend To The Devil.
During Don't Think Twice Dylan introduces his guest guitarist as Jeff Beck, guest
however is none other than Caesar Diaz!
WOOLSLEY HALL, BEW BAVER 16 Noveaber 1991 95 ain
Like the other November shows I've heard this is another very good concert. Great
performance plenty set changes and some fine new arrangements too. Three cover
versions in this set, Confidential To Me, You Don't Know Me and a great performance
of Friend To The Devil. Other highlights include I Don't Believe You, Simple Twist
Of Fate, an acoustic Hattie Carroll and Man In A Long Black Coat.

CHRIS COOPER

WELL! A real bumper crop this month has kept my eyes glued to the ol' tv screen
much more than usual. Lots of nice surprises too, so lets get to it •• Oh Yeah, in
case you're from another planet here's them old abbreviations yet again •••

Hattie Carroll.
Song only no chat, and in black of white of course! But Wow!! I never thought we'd
get this sucker! A strange 1timin~ bar' is evident throughout the film but no times
appear in it? A very young looking Dylan here too. Ironically there are several
'bored audience' shots again, just as in Quest shot only 3 weeks earlier.
20-09-87 MESSEPLATZ, HANNOVER 32.05
Timest Man Of Peace(i), Maggies Farm(i), I'll Be Your Baby Tonight(i), I and I, Thin
Man(fJ, Knockin'(f), Chimes+ McGuinn, Shot Of Love •
Shot from several positions as the cameraman moves about, at best knees up, at worst
less than 3/4 screen. Often lots of heads also, but the guy obviously was trying.
There is a much better video of this gig, so my advice is to leave this one alone.
20-08-88 CHAMPS DE BRIOWNE, GEORGE 22.00
Absolutely Sweet Marie(i) ,Highway 6l(f)l Don't Think Twice@(s), Tambourine Man@,
Trail Of The Buffalo@, It Ain't Me Babe@( )
After a bum~y start this settles to a knees up shot from stage left. Excellent sound
and after first three tracks a fairly steady, and mostly clear view.
21-08-88 PACIFIC COLISEUM, VANCOUVER 82.30
Subterranean H B, I'll Remember You, Masters Of War, Mobile, Baby Blue, Highway 61,
Boots@, Hattie Carroll@, One Too Many Mornings@, Barbara Allen@, Silvio, In The
Garden, Rolling Stone. Watchtower, and Heavens Door+ Tracey Chapman.
A balcony view almost level with the right hand side of the stage gives us Dylan and
the band almost in profile. Dylan full length 3/4 screen plus two others. At times a
bit too dark but very steady, probably a tripod. Sound very good, and you have just
gotta see the duet at the end
03-08-89 RIVERFESTIVAL, MIRHEAPOLIS 76.00
Most Likely, Forever Younz Hollis Brown, I Want You(i), Thin Man(i), Don't Think
Twice@(s), Gates of Eden@{s), Tambourine Man@, Girl From The· North Country@, One
Irish Rover, Silvio, I Shall Be Released(b) Rolling Stone(s), It Ain't Me Babe@.
Shot slightly stage ri~ht, Dylan full length with good sound, unfortunately it's
very unsteady with a fair few heads in the way. The show actually begins in daylight
but when the daylight goes the vid becomes pretty dark. During 'Rover' two guys
obstructing the view offer to move for "ten bucks". He doesn't cough up though!
14-06-90 CIVIC CENTER, FARGO BORTH DAKOTA 82.30
Thin Man(f), Mobile, Big Girl Now(e), Masters Of War(s), Gotta Serve Somebody, It's
Alright Ma@, Love Minus Zero@, Girl From The North Country@, Hattie Carroll@, It
Ain't Me Babe@, Broken, What Was It You Wanted?, Shooting Star, Watchtower, I Shall
Be Released Rolling Stone, Blowin' In The Wind@, Highway 61.
Shot stage ieft, Dylan full length, full screen. The acoustic sets are much too dark
but overall not a bad film. Fairly steady with good sound.
15-06-90 CIVIC CENTER, BISMARX BORTH DAKOTA 50.00
Baby Blue@, John Brown@, Boots@(i), Political World(s) Shooting Star, Watchtower(e)
In The Garden(b), Rolling Stone, Blowin In The Wind@, Maggies Farm.
Shot stage left, Dylan appears knees up clear view. Picture steady apart from
occasionally 'sinkin_g'. The sound does let the video down a bit though, seeming
rather muffled and distant for a relatively close film. You should see the cap Dylan
wears throughout!! Talk about Andy Capp!
16-12-65 LOS ANGELES PRESS CORFERERCE 8.00
An infuriatingly short clip of this press conference is now circulating. Several
cuts in places, making some of the answers disjointed. Quality could be better but
is watchable. Dylan looks totally wasted, a fact that does not pass one reporter.
Dylan's answer to why he looks so tired is that its due to the difference between
New Yorkers and Californians!
- THIIUY FOUR -
19-6-91 STADTHALLE, OFFERBACH 103.22
New Morning Lay Lady Lay, Watchtower, Shelter From The Storm, Serve Somebody,
Wig~le Wiggfe, It Takes a Lot To Lau~h, Leopardskin Pillbox Hat, Two Soldiers@, It
AinTt Me Babe@, Hard Rain@, Don't Think Twice, It's Alright Ma@, Positively Fourth
Street, Broken, I Believe In You, Highway 61, Lenny Bruce, Ballad Of a Thin Man.
Very steady, probably tripod with long zoom, never any obstructions. A bit dark in
acoustic s~ts, also too much light on the arms of Bob's white shirt create a weird
ghosting effect, but a very watchable film. Knees up, slightly stage right.
17-10-91 SEVILLE,SPAIB 30.00
Watchtower (J Bruce band) Boots@, Borderline@, Answer Me My Love@ (R Thompson) Shake
Rattle & Roll (K Richard band) I Can't Turn You Loose (all)
Hot from the Spanish TV stations this one, there is virtually 8 hours from the five
days going around, though this is all that Dylan did. Official TV footage, the
performance quality I've mentioned elsewhere in these pages so I'll not go on. But
whatever other vids you track down, make sure this is one of 'em. The credits state
it was broadcast in stereo though, anyone know where I can get a stereo copy??
15-10-90 BEACOB THEATER, BEW YOU 75.00
Montezuma (inst), Rainy Day Women, Masters Of War, Joey, Watching The River Flow,
Shelter From The Storm, Man Of Peace, Baby Blue@, John Brown@, Don't Think Twice@,
It Ain't Me Babe@, Under The Red Sky, Man In a Long Black Coat, Silvio, I Shall Be
Released, Rolling Stone, Blowin In The Wind@, Highway 61.
One more from the same person as the other three. Dylan waist up and steady balcony
film. Sound OK but not really clear. Amazing to see GE playing a flying 'V' guitar
on 'Stone', also a short clip of G.E, leaving the gig. Those were the days?!
ARD FINALLY••••
7777??91 BA~~ FILM Caaeo appearance 1.07
A totally unnecessary clip of Dylan creating carvings with a chainsaw!
Good to see that the Wembley MTV footage is now about in very good quality and
without the timing strip. Also now includes footage of 'Rolling Stone' and 'Mr
Tambourine Man' making it now 85.00 mins. Search this one out.
