Review by Borivoj Terek Bob came on stage at 9 pm wearing white hat, just like in Bergamo. Our "friends" Stu and Denny, just like other band members, wore grey suits for the occasion. The opener, Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat, was strong and the crowd was pleased. As the show was progressing the atmosphere, the mood of the concert, became even better and better, yet relaxed. Indeed, it was a kind of "open-air-club" concert! Tangled Up In Blue as well as Boots of Spanish Leather were well accepted by the audience, same as Spirit on the Water. Bob's singing was great, his voice might be coarse or hoarse, yet it was strong, and the rendition was nice. This was especially visible during Spirit, Nettie or Moonlight, but also during Boots, the later not performed so many times during this tour. I was waiting to hear Positively 4th Street in that new arrangement, so when I heard the first chords of the song, the concert was nothing but good for me! Crowd was pleased with "pure electric" songs like Highwater, Highway 61, Honest with me or Stuck Inside of Mobile, as they are songs you could listen all over and over again. Funny thing, during All Along the Watchtower Bob sang the third verse twice, and later, during Thunder on the Mountain he sang a few lines from Summer Days: "Summer days, summer nights are gone"! Was it just a lack of concentration, something intentional he did, or just a hello for two guys coming from Croatia - as summer days are gone for them this year - Bob is not coming to Europe this summer any more - that's something nobody knows :-). So bye for now Bob, we will be waiting for you to come next summer again! (Bob Links) |
