Since we are about to see the new live DVD and I'm drinking beer and waiting for my guests to arrive for our Memorial Day weekend BBQ part 1...thought it would be cool to start a thread on great live discs...I've been playing Bob Dylan "Live 1975" lately and it's one fine set. The only thing I don't like about it is it's a collection of live tracks...not a single show...so each track fades out at the applause...then fades back up to applause for the beginning of the next track. It's two discs of prime live Dylan though and it is one fine sounding set...also comes with a DVD of Dylan and Rolling Thunder doing "Tangled Up In Blue" (this is solo acoustic) and "Isis" with the band...he's on fire and rips through these songs...really great stuff and not the Dylan I've seen in the 80's, 90's, and 00's...who can seem a bit distant and disinterested...
Comes with a cool book too with lots of classic photos (including one for Gene of Bob and Gord jamming) that details events leading up to and through that 75 tour. It's been out a couple years now but if you don't have it it's well worth picking up. This and the Before The Flood set are my favorite live Dylan.
