Speedy says:
I've seen Bob Dylan on 3 occasions - with the Grateful Dead serving as his back up band for a set in 1987 (after the Dead played 2 sets of their own!), as a headliner in 1989, and as the lead in band for the Dead in 1995, their last tour before Jerry Garcia passed away.

Today's post captures Bob Dylan in 1994 making up for missin out on the most famous rock festival in history. Twenty five years after the original festival, rock royalty came together once again at Woodstock in August 1994.  That 25th anniversary concert was originally scheduled for August 13 and 14 and billed as “2 more days of peace and music”, borrowing from the 1969 concert’s promotional posters. A 3rd day was eventually added on August 12. Interestingly, many of the artists who played Woodstock 1994 did not perform at the original festival, such as the one and only Bob Dylan.  This soundboard recording captures Dylan on August 14, 1994, 32 years ago today, performing before an audience of 350,000. Despite the rain and mud, conditions similar to those in 1969, the crowd was mostly well behaved and embodied the spirit shown by those who attended the original Woodstock.

Yo La Tengo - Mr Tough! | Guess I’m Dumb

 

Yo La Tengo - Mr. Tough (2006)

"I heard this in a cafe recently and I had to shazam it as I couldn’t place it, even though I knew the song. Hearing Ira Kaplan’s soul falsetto was a bit of a fun surprise. There’s a bit of a Charlie Brown piano part too that adds a extra element to the proceedings. A band having fun.


we like Yo La Tengo!


This one appealed to me even though it's  still 30 degrees here!
