Of course, the color was changed to match the venue. This release is part of a trilogy from TMR that will document Dylan's early 2008 venues in Mexico and South America. TMR is halfway shooting towards themed releases like those of Crystal Cat. This set of releases is printed on high gloss paper with a red on black motif. They also incorporate Dylan's own artwork inside the packages. The discs themselves are offset printed with a closeup photo of Bob blowing the harp. A nice touch considering the venue. The recording is great, for the most part. The vocals are loud, but well mixed with the music. Virtually every thing a highlight, including the bonus tracks. These are the first five songs from the previous night that are not included in the Saturday night show. As for the highlights of the concert... pick a song! RDW is historic. The surprise songs LLL is sweetly sung. JLTTB is one of the best performances ever recorded. Señor is powerful, dark and menacing. Modern Times songs are as good or better than the studio versions. Listen to Freeman's solos in TIFILWY, H61R and SD among others. He's on fire! All in all, simply a great package. Buy it. You'll like it. © 2008 CD Pinkerton bobsboots.com |
