Bob Dylan

On June 15, 2000, Bob Dylan surprised fans with an intimate club show at the Roseland Theater in Portland, just a day before the start of the Phil & Friends tour. At this point in his career, Dylan was experiencing a creative resurgence, having released the critically acclaimed album "Time Out of Mind" just a couple of years earlier in 1997. That album marked a significant return to form, touching on themes of loss and longing that resonated deeply with listeners. Interestingly, this live recording captures Dylan's electric and engaging performance style, showcasing a blend of his classic hits and newer material, underscoring his adaptability as an artist. The 2000s were truly a transformative time for him, as he continued to evolve while staying connected to his roots.
