Can't get over destroying a Dylan painting of Christ to make a table. Nice to see that one painting survived: the rock 'n' roll Jesus playing behind Dylan in the backdrop. You could try a hundred times and not get a more perfectly symmetrical alignment of the two guitarists. What a visual! Who needs a silver crucifix from the audience when you've got the big guy himself hovering above you on stage. Another revealing interview, Ray. Here's a seder daiquiri to you--L'Chaim!

My wife and I just had lunch at the Stanley Hotel last week, where the RTR stayed during this time.

Interesting this, thank you!.. The one part that really has thrown me though is how has it taken me so long to realise this footage of Tangled Up In Blue has surfaced!.. I'm reading it was played at a film festival, with Bob Dylan's manager there!? I have often considered if the footage from the rest of this show still exists. They likely recorded the whole set? 24 songs. From that clip there is looks like that is a really good quality version of the film (not the VHS tape recordings). Has this been shown at the Bob Dylan Center? nm.
