Bob Dylan Live, Videos from Thessaloniki Harbor, Greece – June 22, 2014 — ‘All Along The Watchtower’ & More

Bob Dylan live in Greece.

Bob Dylan live at Thessaloniki Harbor in Thessaloniki, Greece last night.

Dylan sounds quite good based on these clips and the band is really swinging. I’m very impressed with Dylan’s band. Shows last year and this show what a killer performing unit they are. Based on the shows in Japan, Ireland, Turkey and now Greece, this is going to be a great year for Dylan in concert. Hopefully we’ll have a new album before the end of the year, and then I’m hoping another bootleg series set in 2015.

It’s going to be very interesting to see what Dylan’s “Like A Rolling Stone” manuscript sells for at auction tomorrow. I’ve seen an estimate that it could sell for as much as $2 million. Crazy. Well we’ll know soon enough.

Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy the videos of Bob Dylan live at Thessaloniki Harbor below.

Audio: New Peter Buck, Corin Tucker ‘Supergroup’ Debut 12 Songs at Portland’s Secret Society

Last night super-Earth, the new band that finds Sleater-Kinney’s Corin Tucker and R.E.M.’s Peter Buck collaborating, performed in Portland at Secret Society, opening for Buck.

The group played 12 songs that David Greenwald of The Oregonian wrote were “so fresh, Tucker had lyric sheets.”

More from Greenwald’s review:

The occasional look to her music stand didn’t stop Tucker, still one of the best rock singers working, from commanding a room that had filled in by the time super-Earth took the stage. The new material, speedy and loud, was full of power chords, enthusiasm and the occasional signature Buck arpeggio — less punk rock than power-pop but always knife-sharp. It sounded like an album: hopefully it will be.

In addition to Buck and Tucker, super-Earth includes guitarist Scott McCaughey (Minus 5), drummer Bill Rieflin (Swans, Ministry), and guitarist Kurt Bloch (ex-Fastbacks).

The group are currently working on an album, according to the Portland Mercury.

Buck and Tucker have worked together in the past. Tucker sang on both of Buck’s solo albums.

Here are two songs on Peter Buck albums featuring Tucker:

“Drown With Me”:

“Nothing Means Nothing”:
