Thanks! for sharing- Richard.

Dylan live
Greetings.
I am just home from a Dylan concert (going again tomorrow). Having been to his shows more times than I can count (many dozens, over several decades) I feel he is in a place that few ever get to. Magical is a word that comes to mind. A great band backing him, has been the same players for a long time, they play as a unit and as individuals, and he, the man, is either at a baby grand or standing between Tony and Charlie with a stand microphone doing 5 of his more recent "Sinatra" cover, with September of My Years bringing chills and tears. He plays mostly songs from recent discs, but also did Tangled, Highway 61, Desolation Row, and blowing/thin man as encores.
He/his shows/his recent discs seem to polarize.
Me, I feel so fortunate to be alive while he is, and to experience the transcendence.
