Dylan’s second album “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan” was a soundtrack to Bill’s childhood, and remains in his top three favourite albums of all time, but it was a chance hearing of Like A Rolling Stone and Positively 4th Street back to back on the radio as a teenager that sealed the deal. “The sound and vocal delivery just blew me away”, recalls Bill.
The 2 set show covers every apsect of Dyland essential career:
The heady idealism of Blowing In The Wind and The Times They Are A Changin; the electric venom of Subterranean Homesick Blues and Like A Rolling Stone.
Timeless love songs like Lay Lady Lay and I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight; the mysticism of All Along The Watchtower or Mr Tambourine Man.
The lyrical tour de force of Hurricane to the catchy simplicity of Knocking On Heaven’s Door – these and many more memorable songs, along with some of the stories behind them, are captured to perfection.
Experience the thrill and energy of a full-blown electric Dylan concert planted firmly in the 1960s, a time when anything seemed possible, in a show that will remind you what REAL nostalgia feels like, and have you digging out your old vinyl to sustain the pleasure just that little bit longer.
