Bob did a great job covering the greatest cover of his own song.🍷😎👌

[vivaelbetis]

Ive always felt that Bob Dylan is a poet that had the smart idea to musicalize his poems so that more people would listen to them

[YogsenForfoth]

These are Bob’s songs and he can sing them however he damn well chooses to.

It was the R&R Hall of Fame, after all... not the "Folk Music Hall of Fame". He rocked it without the slightest blip of concern or care for what anyone thought. He gave the audience what they really needed. THAT'S ROCK-N-ROLL, Baby Blue!

Me and my whole family made to the 25th row on a miracle ticket that night. It was epic! JfromOH

Nice to see Bob Dylan covering a Jimi Hendrix and a Johnny Winter song.
(Yes, I know Bob Dylan wrote the songs.)

[JamesZlotkowski-dowi]

I love the way Bob looks around to keep his guys on the ball. 👍

[ronaldshiffman]

Vintage, classic rock and roll. Love it.

[OakHillSoulman]

From the comments, you either love it or hate it. I love it! A scorcher!

[ProhibitionJones]

Put it on .75 speed for an alternate yet oddly pleasing experience

[Buzzramjet]

Bob writes great songs and others play them great.

[trustrecordlable]

I like that version and the drummer is great

[nissi.k]

I love these! Bob singing so good and playing guitar so beautifully; mostly taking the lead and JJ complimenting so nicely. Gotta love the great late Bucky Baxter’s lap steel and great rock drumming from the late Winston Watson and of course Tony underpins with solid bass playing! 🙌

[mountaintyme]

Nice to see Bob reclaim this song as his so well.

[frankfeldman]

Everyone's trying way too hard except for Bob, who doesn't seem to give a shit, or is trolling us, as is so often the case with him.

[garyneilson]

Ridin' the wave, music and words and memorable voice! Speech is music too, and his speech is like no

[hhonig]

The golden shirt was watched miles away from the watchtower so everybody took shelter from the storm.

[benlavid]

He sounds like he is singing whilst breathing in

[Aurongroove]

Lol. It’s kinda funny seeing Bob Dylan doing an electric guitar solo. It’s like seeing María Callas doing a vinyl scratch solo.

[adame.]

Sometimes we forget...Dylan can JAM (at least on his own songs)...maybe he picked up a few licks from Jimi.
