Venue: Zemun Stadium Location: Belgrade, Serbia (general), Serbia Date: June 11, 1991

In June 1991, Bob Dylan delivered a stunning performance of 'John Brown' during a concert at Zemun Stadium in Belgrade. This live recording came shortly after the release of his album 'Oh Mercy' in 1989, which marked a significant resurgence in his career, showcasing his lyrical prowess and artistic depth. This period was pivotal for Dylan, as he was exploring new musical territories and collaborating with fresh talents. Interestingly, 'John Brown,' originally from the 1963 album 'The Times They Are a-Changin',' highlights Dylan's knack for storytelling and social commentary. By this time, he had managed to blend his classic folk roots with the rock and pop influences of the late '80s, creating an electrifying atmosphere that resonated with the audience. It's fascinating to see how his work continued to evolve, even decades into his career.
