CJ, I am completely aligned with you, almost to the word. But Dylan's gonna Dylan.

As for me: Stop Making Sense (Talking Heads) is my all-time favorite live album. Not a bad song in the bunch, and some are far better than the original studio versions. It's been on constant rotation in my head (and my ear) since 1984 and that's saying something.

PS There's a 2023 remaster that includes tracks like Cities and I Zimbra, plus Genius of Love from the Tom Tom Club. More Tina Weymouth is never a bad thing.

I was wondering what happened to you. I am looking forward to a fresh new season of EON. The Rolling Thunder Review tour was a mess and this album takes what was salvageable from it. I know you guys are old dogs, more prone to reviewing music from before 1985 - like Live at Leeds, but might I suggest you look forward and consider Wilco's Kicking Television: Live in Chicago?
