Neil D Review: Linda Thompson on Bob Dylan (21) RE: Review: Linda Thompson on Bob Dylan 27 Nov 24


I saw Mr Dylan back in 2009. On one hand it was awesome just to be in the venue he occupied. On the other hand I wasn't impressed with the sound. It was basically the Johny Sexton blues band cranked up to 11. Having spent some of my misspent youth in mosh pits, I'm no stranger to overloud, distorted rock music, but it doesn't seem the best choice for Dylan songs. I mean really, who am I to question what Bob Dylan wants to sound like, and I get that I sound like one of his critics from 60 years ago complaining about the same thing. It's just that it would be nice to hear a couple songs sound like they do on the album. I should mention that the Canton Memorial Auditorium has notoriously bad acoustics and here's a bit of trivia. That auditorium is the venue that Hank Williams was on his way to when he died in the back seat of that car.
