Summary: Real Dylan. At first glance "Real Live" might seem to be a total curiosity: a playlist featuring chestnuts like "Maggie's Farm" juxtaposed against (at the time) newer material from Dylan's brilliant "Infidels" album, and a version of "Tangled Up In Blue" that features a revised lyric. What's more, the fine band backing Dylan up is a veritable Who's Who of classic British rock: former Rolling Stone Mick Taylor on lead guitar, Ian McLagan of the Small Faces on keyboards, and ex-Focus drummer Colin Allen. Sounds odd, but it all works, and wonderfully so. The band - Taylor's muscular blues-based guitar work is particularly inspired - provides wonderful textures and underpinnings to the songs, giving Dylan total freedom to employ his unique vocals in a more emotional and expressive way than is usual even for him. Dylan performs a few of the songs solo, accompanied only by his acoustic guitar and harmonica, and Carlos Santana is on hand to lend his guitar chops to the final cut, "Tombstone Blues". If the measure of a live album is its ability to capture a "moment" from a performance, then "Real Live" succeeds, and then some, on the glorious crowd sing-along during "It Ain't Me Babe". Not to be missed. Summary: Bad record even for Dylan fans I wouldnt recommend this one even to Dylan Fans. The sound is terrible, and Dylan voice is at his most nasal. Mick Taylor sounds good, Santana plays in the last song, but basically there are many other live albums better than this one. The acoustic set is maybe the best from the set. But then again, the sound spoils the listening experience. I spent the first 3 songs trying to adjust my stereo trying to get the best sound and by the fourth I just gave up. Its a 3 star record but Ill give it a 2 just for that. Summary: I didn't know whether to duck or to run, so I ran Dylan has in recent years, developed a live sound that travels seamlessly from acoustic performances to electric ones. On this offering though, there are two distinct presentations: Mick Taylor garage band blues or solo acoustic. My preference is the solo acoustic performances of "Tangled..."(with new lyrics), "Girl from the North Country", and "It Ain't Me Babe" (with spontaneous crowd sing along). Of the two offerings from Infidels, "License to Kill" is sloppy and just isn't one of Bob's best songs; "I and I" is better in studio. The remaining offerings are electric and range from good to below average. All in all, worth the money and will sit in your CD player for quite some time if only for the acoustic performances. Summary: I caught this tour in Rome Mick Taylor adds the blues style that is a complete complement. Two legends play, making sure to not step on the other. Mutual respect can be heard by two of the greatest at their craft. This CD is a must for R&B fans. Summary: Outstanding A classic example of live Dylan. This CD has all the energy and drive that Budokan lacks. This is what you hear at a live Dylan show. I can almost feel the buzz. |
