Bob Dylan


CONCERT FOR BANGLADESH 

International Times posted a video this morning on Facebook that threw me for a second. A track from 'The Concert For Bangladesh' that I hadn't seen!!? How could this be . . . . . well it is industry practice to re-issue albums with additional bonus tracks never heard before so we buy the whole shebang all over again and in 2005 there was a remaster of the concert album and whilst it was never shown in the original film it was definitely worth a look . . . . Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Leon Russell (on bass), Ringo on tambourine one of the finest love songs ever written 'Love Minus Zero No Limit'. It looks like a song from the evening set but also has something of a rehearsal about it although it is well documented that there pretty much weren't any. George wasn't even sure before the afternoon set that Bob would turn up at all!

Sorry its not as good as the Facebook version
