Video: Bob Dylan and The Hawks, Newcastle, 1966 – Complete ‘Like A Rolling Stone’

Dylan, Manchester, 1966.

This is the complete performance of “Like A Rolling Stone.” While it appears to be the Manchester Free Trade Hall show from May 17, 1966 because of the “Judas” quote, a fellow Dylan fan pointed out that the actual performance of the song is from the May 21, 1966 Newcastle concert.

Bob Dylan and most, but not all, of The Hawks, later The Band.

This was originally shot for “Eat the Document,” the never officially released documentary of Dylan’s 1966 tour of England. Later it showed up in “No Direction Home,” the documentary that Martin Scorsese put together for Dylan.

I’ve been listening to various unofficial and official audio of Dylan’s Europe tour shows beginning in the early ’70s and they never get old.

Incredible.

Blurry crowd shot via video clip.

I guess since John Fogerty once lived in Northern California (El Cerrito, next to Berkeley, to be exact), Arcade Fire chose to cover the Creedence Clearwater Revival song “Hey, Tonight,” last night (July 30) at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, about an hour south of Fogerty’s old home.

Richard Reed Parry handled the lead vocal.

One year ago, on July 31, 2013, Bob Dylan performed “All Along The Watchtower” and “Early Roman Kings” and other songs at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre, Greenwood Village, CO.

Here are clips of both of the previously mentioned songs.

Dylan’s vocal performances are quite good, and his band is superb as usual.

At the Music Vault website I’ve found five complete video clips and one partial clip of Bob Dylan performing at the Oakland Coliseum in 1988.

He was performing at a benefit for the Bridge School. G. E. Smith accompanies Dylan on acoustic guitar.

There’s an incredible version of “Forever Young.”

And it’s great to hear Dylan sing “San Francisco Bay Blues” just across the bay from San Francisco.

The entire set is great.
