This weeks Bob Dylan Friday features a real corker. This week was a freeleech so I was able to get some bootlegs that I wasn’t sure about and this one was just…. mind blowing. It’s from Portland in 2000 and basically mixes Bob’s new growl with the oldtime instrumentations of many of the songs including a FUCKING awesome version of Tangled Up In Blue and Ballad of a Thin Man. I highly, highly recommend this one. Now keep in mind this is only CD 1 but CD 2 was so good that I had to keep it in my back pocket (Betty Davis Style) for next week. Download this shit, people.
