Re-listening to Bob Dylan "Live 1975/The Rolling Thunder Revue"

Sides 1 & 2. Realizing now that what’s missing is some of the midrange frequencies and of coarse the lowest bass. Going to try and complete the entire set over the weekend.

Understanding this sets' flaws helps me to enjoy it more for what it is.
While the rest of this set is cleaning.....Bob Dylan "Desire" MFSL/45rpm
Finished sides 1 & 2 of the above set.

Now on to sides 3 & 4 of The Rolling Thunder Review. This turns out to be a great way to compare.
I'm realizing that gaining perspective, especially with these Dylan recordings, is important for one's enjoyment. While good SQ is one factor, the artists' ability to convey their message, is equally important. It is through this "prism" that I'm able to enjoy Dylan's songs presented in very different venues and different ways on different lps.
Finishing up this evenings' Dylan listening with sides 3 & 4 of "Desire"  MFSL/45rpm.
