Bob Dylan: MTV Unplugged [2004]

Since Dylan switched to rock music, back when Adam was a boy, his live perfomances have always been - shall we say- somewhat variable. By his albeit limited standards, this live session should be regarded as a masterpiece, IMO. His live arrangements have often been inferior to the original product, but in this case they really do add something to the songs. I especially liked "Dignity". There are three numbers from my favourite album "Highway 61 Revisited" and they are all stunners. Mercifully, at this period in time, he had hardly begun his annoying habit of rushing out the words of each line in advance of the music, so it not too irksome. His voice still had that cutting edge about it at that period and his backing band, as always, is marvellous, as is the quality of production and recording. the Dolby 5.1 is excellent. I was amazed to see that Bob actually paid some attention to the audience, although he is clearly uncomfortable doing so. It seems that he is not a people person, but who cares. It is his music that counts. I am so glad I bought this DVD and I recommend it to any Dylan fan.

I bought this to replace the VCR version. The sound and visuals are very clear and this concert shows Dylan at his best, with some excellent backing. The CD starts of with an up-beat version of Tombstone Blues which is a great opening number to lay the foundation for some of Dylan's best numbers, including All Along The Watchtower, John Brown, Desolation Row and Like a Rolling Stone. I've heard a few of the MTV Unplugged Concerts, all of which are excellent, but this is one of the best.
