Bob Dylan in Corpus Christie / Texas

REVIEWS
Bob Links

Review by Karl Garcia
The band roared into "Rollin' And Tumblin' " with Denny's slide ripping from the stage leading the Texas-style boogie. Bob fearlessly laid into the keys, howling each verse into a fever pitch as the band tried to keep up with his pace. Everyone managed to catch their breath as the band loped into "Workingman's Blues #2". Dylan admonished the audience with the delivery of each word as he lashed out each line… "bring me boots and shoes!" The mix grew louder as the sound began echoing off the stadium walls when they began "Tweedle Dee", one of my youngest daughter's favorite Dylan songs. The atmosphere was lively as many of the Tweedle Dums began leaving the show early. We decided to brave the field and get a closer view. It could not have come at a more opportune time as the somber strains of "Ballad of A Thin Man" crept upon us. The sound mix sounded much better closer to the stage, and you could see the subtleties of the lighting effects creating blue-hued auras and jumping shadows of the band members against the ink-black backdrop that fluttered softly in the breeze. At about 25-30 feet from the stage, Dylan loomed larger than life. The song was stunningly eerie. As Bob toyed with keyboards, the musical concepts compounded themselves as we journeyed into a snarling "Highway 61 Revisited". It was comforting to be standing next to my wife and children as the stark music revealed itself. Suddenly tiny speckled lights flooded the stage as the themes of the previous songs coalesced themselves into a timeless version of "Nettie Moore". Dylan sang effortlessly and the words mirrored the ethereal tone of the song. It was so honest; it was very difficult to bear. "Thunder On The Mountain" exploded from the stage, and as we returned to our seats in the stands I realized the music was louder than before with the sound booming against the stadium. I had to lightly press my forefingers against the flaps of my ears for most of the remainder of the show to prevent pain. I worried that I had contributed to my family's permanent hearing loss! The song would have sounded fine without the unnecessary volume….."shame on your wicked schemes!"
