Bob Dylan & Mick Taylor (former Rolling Stones guitarist) 06/09/84 Nya Ullevi Stadium Gothenburg, Sweden Converted by: Fendert Conversion: Tape>?x>CDR>Wav>FLAC Quality: Very Good / Audience DO NOT CONVERT TO .MP3 OR ANY OTHER LOSSY FORMAT This is the 9th Show of Bob Dylan's 1984 tour with former Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor. After the fabulous Brussels show the band had a day off and this show is not up to the Brussels standard. This is an average night for the band, however, Dylan is great. It's almost as if he senses the lack of focus and intuitiveness of the band and he is trying to make it up for the crowd. If every night were great then all the shows would be average, right? The acoustic stuff is up to the highest standards. Taylor is not quite himself this night. He shows signs of greatness from time-to-time but there seems to be a lack of focus. There are not really many surprises on this night. "Every Grain of Sand" and "Simple Twist of Fate" are reversed. As usual Santana joins at the end of the show and is so damn annoying that it's painful to listen to. Give a listen to "The Times They Are A Changing" and listen to this guy butcher the solo and ruin any emotion the song may invoke to the audience with his totally over-the-top (in a very bad way) tone and wrong notes. You know Carlos, this song was 20 years old then, might be time to figure it out before botching it on stage. To be fair, Mick Taylor also botches his lead on "Why Do I Have To Choose" (his is the second solo this night) and he hits a bad note and totally screws him up (BTW, I could not find that this song was played on the data base, but it is here; any suggestions?). Oh well, maybe Copenhagen will be better. There is a flaw on this recording on disc 2 on the song "When You Gonna Wake Up," it fades out before the song ends. Right now is the 20th Anniversary of those shows and I thought it would be cool to release each show to STG on the date of the actual show plus 20 years. So, here is the ninth show; only 18 more!!! We'll see if I can keep up with the rest of the tour. Disc 1 01. Highway 61 Revisited 02. Jokerman 03. All Along The Watchtower 04. Just Like A Woman 05. Maggie's Farm 06. I And I 07.
