Hello everyone, New video for you today, now in 1993. The video recording comes from a Professional Shot, broadcasted on CBS, compiled as the Elite Series Volume 036, and the sound comes directly from the soundboard. The Elite Series comprise the very best of concert footage and video performances by Bob Dylan. This is a very special performance with two legends together and many other incredible artists. After the success of the 1992 tour, Bob took a break from touring, but making several events from the Presidential Inauguration to this celebration of the great Outlaw Country giant Willie Nelson. Bob didn't completely stop however, but the tour was way shorter than usual and his voice was clearly weaker. It is even odder when you know he recorded an excellent album, World Gone Wrong, perhaps his best cover album. In the midst of a very trivial year, several performances stand out, with the Supper Club being the crown jewel (some of the best shows he ever did). This 60th Birthday Party for Willie, also known as The Big Six-O, is one of those highlights. Bob only sings two songs, but what songs! A sublime cover of the Townes Van Zandt classic Pancho & Lefty and the Stephen Foster traditional Hard Times. Both are heartbreaking, on the same level as the originals. This celebration is also a good occasion to better know Willie Nelson, playing his best tunes with his friends, from Paul Simon to Ray Charles, B.B King to Neil Young and Bonnie Raitt, to fellow country singers like Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson and many others. A wonderful performance that is still unreleased despite the amazing set, and the very good quality of this broadcast. I hope you will like it as well. Here is the setlist DVD 1 1.
