Ray, Just love "Spanish Is A Loving Tongue"; as mentioned a stunning performance. Keep up the good work. I do not have any of these amazing performances. Thanks.

How right you are about that performance of The Times They Are A-Changin' - wholly convincing, sustained, concentrated. Thank you.

Great article! Your link to the random one-off concert in 1989 goes to some sort of spam site.

Ew that's where all the old olof bjorner links go now? Depressing. Fixed

Hi Ray. We so enjoy and appreciate your excellent postings. Today you mention your playlist "of all the solo-acoustic performances." Is this something you might please share or make available for download? Thanks for the consideration. Michael

That's not quite the only live performance of Spanish is the Loving Tongue, which he also sang at the Friends of Chile concert in New York in May 1974.

Good catch, I should have specified I meant in a regular concert. Thanks for spotting that.

Thanks for this. I've always loved the solo acoustic, he did several when we saw him in Salem and Portland 12/'80. And other shows later. Enjoy your hard work, we appreciate.
