New - 30th Anniversary Concert on DVD: encore

Thanks to Martin Cowan:

“And of course the 29 song list omits Dylan's opener, ‘Song To Woody’, due to "technical problems", although there didn't seem to be too much wrong with it when it was broadcast on national television in the UK. And Sinead O'Connor's searing rendition of Bob Marley's ‘War’ is also missing from this track list.

"Would agree with you that Neil Young was compelling, but also the Pearl Jam boys' ‘Masters of War’, Richie Havens' ‘Just Like A Woman’ and Willie Nelson's ‘What was it you wanted’ are worthy of mention.

New - 30th Anniversary Concert on DVD

Thanks to K Lewis for notification that “the dylan 30th anniversary concert dvd will be released on 7 April”, and for a link to one of the suppliers, Spin:

http://www.spincds.com/product.asp?id=9015526

The (confusing) detail on the Spin site indicates that the double DVD will have fewer tracks than the original CD release, 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration – 19 tracks instead of 29.

Dylan Daily readers will differ on the 30th Anniversary Concert, held in Madison Square Garden in 1992. Some found it tiresome, exposing the bankruptcy of rock in the early 1990s.

Dylan was hardly compelling, the rest missable. Apart, that is, from Roger McGuinn and Neil Young. Young, who stole the show, with rousing versions of Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues and All Along The Watchtower, is missing from Spin’s tracklist for the new DVD.
