Bob Dylan - Live, 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)


You had me at "Liar."

I'd lost track of Dylan until I had to spend some time down in Florida and picked this up on the way to the airport. It saved me in that sour place.

Dylan is angry. With something to prove and not so patient with those pesky UK music journalists, those limey uppity folk fans better not question his schtick. You tell em Bobby. Judas this, bitch. For real, there's a serious simmering contempt here. Contempt from Dylan for those telling him who he is while they don't listen to him tell them who he's not.
...And his band is vicious.
