Never heard of this concert/CD, but today the radio played two cuts, one George Harrison doing Absolutely Sweet Marie (awesome), and the second - was beyond awesome.

My Back Pages. McGuinn sings the first verse, the crowd goes wild. Petty sings the second verse, the crowd goes wild. Neil Young sings the third verse, the crowd goes wild. Clapton plays a nice solo, sings the fourth verse, the crowd goes wild. Dylan sings the fifth verse, the crowd goes wild. Harrison sings the last verse, the crowd goes wild.

F@#*, to have been in that crowd!

Sounded as if McGuinn and Petty were both on twelve strings.

I gotta find this CD!

YOU....ARE....WELCOME!

That's a hell of a backup band too...Steve Cropper, "Duck" Dunn, G.E. Smith...there's a lot of legendary talent on that stage.

I have seen a number of clips on YouTube, and I have the 2-CD set. Amazing to listen to.

Best cuts: "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" (Eric Clapton), "Rainy Day Women #12 and 35" (Tom Petty), "Mr. Tambourine Man" (Roger McGuinn and Tom Petty)", "My Back Pages" (Roger McGuinn, Tom Petty, Neil Young, Eric Clapton, George Harrison and Bob Dylan)

Nice shot of the teleprompter down by the monitors at 2:35.

I couldn't imagine learning ALL the words to a Dylan song anyhow! hahaha.

Cool, thanks.
That Rick really cuts through.

I'd need a teleprompter. It's darned hard work memorizing some of Dylan's early songs.

Love that cd.
Must mention Chrisse Hinde- I Shall Be Released.... so smooth!
Jonny Winter- Highway 61.....we've hear this before but never with more intensity than this.
I pitty the bloke that hade to follow HIM that night!!

Ronnie Wood's contribution (Seven Days) sounded like a very Stonesy take on a Dylan song. Could you see the Stones doing a Dylan song? It'd be totally awesome if they did Maggie's Farm or Subterranean Homesick Blues, but they don't...
