Review by Ray Seed
He actually stood at centre stage and crooned (if you want to call it that) and you could imagine this guy as being part of the Rat Pack. His harp playing was excellent throughout and while I'm not the biggest fan of his current band I must give them their due. They have melded themselves into a very tight unit and their playing is seamless. I especially like the groove they created with a reworked "It's Alright Ma" and the blistering pace they set for "Rollin' and Tumblin'." Bob's singing was passionate and clear and it was never more apparent than on "Not Dark Yet." The set list was a treat for the fan who appreciates lesser known gems like "Blind Willie McTell" and "Every Grain of Sand." When you hear songs of that calibre, that are such a personal confession, you can understand what Joan Baez meant when she said "for those who are interested, Bob goes way deep."

Review by Ray Seed
It was fun to watch the interplay between Dylan, Sexton, Garnier, Receli and Campbell. They are constantly watching Bob's eyes and fingers to see how the songs will unfold. The slightest nod or movement can take a song into uncharted territory. Dylan's unpredictable nature can make any song on any given night an adventure and the potential for disaster is enormous. When Dylan misses, he misses by a mile. But when he hits the target, and he seems to be hitting it a lot these days, the rewards are more than you could possibly imagine.
...
Mid way through the concert Dylan unleashed a trio of acoustic songs that could make a grown man weep. Masters of War, Visions of Johanna and I Shall Be Released were performed with a delicate precision that left me wondering how the concert could get any better - but it did. The opening chords of Summer Days immediately brought the crowd to its feet. The current version is like a runaway freight train. Each verse gains momentum as Dylan, Sexton and Campbell leave a blistering trail of guitar solo's in their wake. Cold Irons Bound has been rearranged once again and it has a great swampy-blues feel to it. The encore was the standard 3 song selection Dylan is playing on this tour and they were note perfect.

Review by Ted Duros
Cold Irons Bound sizzled. Strangely, Tangled up in Blue is a great song to dance along with. Positively Fourth Street was delivered not with venom but with a ‘that’s just the way life is’ frankness. The voodoo rhythms of Till I feel in Love with You were there and were great to move along with. Musically, in general, I’m reminded of what somewhat had said about the Time Out of Mind sessions, about how there were a lot of musicians but no one was trying to pull into the foreground. As you listened you didn’t suddenly switch you attention to what Bucky or Larry was doing. Steel guitar was there below the surface drawing out certain ideas. Bob and Larry’s playing was very complimentary. Highway 61 Revisited and stately bows as he left the stage. Returning for his encore set. I notice the extra mike he used for the Grammy awards Love Sick performance was being used. Blowing in the Wind. Some nice gentle accompanying guitar from Bob for some of these slower numbers such as North Country. Rocking away with Rainy Day Woman and then in the end he sent us on the way with blessings and best wishes, Forever Young, a benediction. And with our ears ringing and hearts warmed he sent us out into cool dry crisp October night. Hardly a trick , mostly treats… Look forward to a great show if the tour heads your way.
