Bob Dylan - Tonight I'll Be Staying Here with You (Live in Montreal - 1975) [4K FOOTAGE]

Since the audio corresponding to this footage was officially released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 5, I could not upload any of the footage with its original audio. So, I found a similar performance (Madison Square Garden, New York - Dec. 8, 1975) and used some editing tricks to overdub it to this footage. However, we all know how Dylan's delivery varies substantially between performances, so I apologize for some awkward out-of-synch moments. Nonetheless, this is an awesome little peek into the magic and charisma that the Revue created. It seemed like a big surrealistic carnival.

Peace & Love,

Lyrics of the version featured in the audio (Swingin Pig adapted the audio of the New York version apparently to the video here which is from a different concert, you can obviously see that the lip-syncing doesn't fit in a few places). This version's lyrics are very much different than the studio version from Nashville Skyline. Here they are (hopefully correct):

Throw my ticket in the wind
Throw my mattress out there too
Throw my letters in the sand
But you got to understand
That tonight I'll be staying here with you

I could've left this town by noon
But tonight I feel a some place new
But I was feeling a little bit scattered
And your love was all that mattered
So, tonight I'll be staying here with you
Get ready, 'cause tonight I'll be staying here with you

Is it really any wonder?
The changes that we run upon each other's heads
You came down on me like rolling thunder
Let my dreams on the river end

I can hear that (lonesome) whistle blowin'
I hear them sinners rollin' too
If there's a traveller on the road
Let him have my load
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you (x2)


Thanks Swingin for, even when you mix different concert footage with different audio (which I'm not usually a fan of but it's understandable why you do it, because of copyright and other different reasons that might occur), you let it known which concert they come from always, which is really important for context.
Even though fixing the footage nowadays is easier than ever thanks to the development of technology, thank you for still doing it, nonetheless.

I'll try to message you privately soon, sorry, I am pretty busy recently.

Love you, Bob Dylan! You and your soaring music helped to make growing up in Mississippi in the '60s easier. From Like A Rolling Stone to Tangled up in Blue, it all worked. And "To Ramona" both broke and healed my heart. May you live long and happily, sir.

Dylan's voice at it's peak, man I wish I could have seen this tour live.

[SpecialKurbis]

Jesus, what a performance, mind blowing

Had the absolute privilege of attending 4 shows on that tour. If you saw the Scorcese documentary there is a scene at the ending of one of the concerts where a young woman is standing in the audience in a state of shock and then begins to cry. That was the way I felt after each show. I was too young to see Dylan in 66 with The Band and felt like I missed something that could never be captured again, so I know how people who missed this tour feel. Watching this video's brings all back again. We all are so fortunate to have them.

[kyledoxstader]

one thing that saddens me the most is to think of the year he has lost of touring, especially after an amazing album.

When in 2002 came out, i've bought the double cd of the Bootleg Series vol.5, the one with the Thunder Revue, and well, i've got a lot of live albums, but this is in my top 3. More than 2 hours of great songs and amazing perfomances, with Joan Baez, Mick Ronson and the magic electric violin of Scarlet Rivera...what could you ask for more! Long live to Bob!

[stephenlubera]

I have absolutely never seen anyone as beautiful as bob dylan in my life.his face, even in a single second, shows as much expression as all of his phenomenal I could watch him forever.and listen to him for ever too.he is my all time favorite singer

[jamesblanshard]

This incredible tour, if there's one tour that I missed and wished I'd been able to see, this would be it. You in America don't know how lucky you were to see Bob at this moment in time x

[jnm]

The sweeping slide guitars are so incredible

[Beatle-Byrd]

It’s a madhouse of music. And young blue eyes is the head lunatic.

[MSYNGWIE]

Thanks, merci, for posting, memories, I'm all teary-eyed, but also had to smile, the man, the music and backstage, we are SO fortunate to have any of these people after age 25! They live on the edge so that you and I might get a glimpse of that special land...Montreal! The city I wasn't born in, but lived in and love with all my heart. Take a bow too, MY CANADA INCLUDES QUEBEC. LOVE YOU BOB, JOAN, JONI, ALLEN ( RIP, we need you down here please reincarnate) and entire band and pooch! Those were the days, "it's not dark yet..." Namaste, Z.

This looks like the best vibe ever, especially 3:15, all chillin and Dylan holding a cute puppy, this must be the time of his life he has the most nostalgia for.

[THEDEEPDIVE]

God I need a time machine... I'd give my left hand to follow this tour in person and see all that greatness.

[markokino]

It's good to see Ronson on stage.

[awww]

It is so true that Dylan has never sang the same song twice. I love all the different arrangements of this tour and on to 76. They just rock. Maybe it was Dylan that started the punk movement a couple of years earlier with these raucous performances.

[raindeerprojekt]

I have followed him from the 14th Summer of my life, He moved me from Heavy metal dreams to True Rock and Blues... I am now a Grandpa!!! And I am still writing NEW song tonight!!! Thank you Dylan for your effort and your Tolerant focus and your thundering prose

[RhysPitman]

Brand Spanking New! Rolling Thunder Revue Footage is always an occasion for celebration.

Thank You Swingin' Pig 🐖✌❤

[dwaynewladyka]

It's nice to see this. Another iconic period in Bob Dylan's music career. Cheers!

[trueyankee]

One of the greatest live albums of all time in my opinion. That blistering opening line "THROW MY TICKET IN THE WIND!" Was just a calling card for those young free spirits, or cowboys who needed to roam but had that one reason to stay the night.
