Bob Dylan performs Highlands live in Adelaide, Australia

Venue: Adelaide Entertainment Centre Location: Adelaide, South Australia, Australia Date: March 20, 2001

In March 2001, Bob Dylan performed at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre during a pivotal moment in his career, just after releasing the acclaimed album 'Love and Theft' in September 2001. This album was notable for its musical diversity and lyrical depth, showcasing a blend of rock, blues, and folk influences. It was Dylan's first studio album of new material in five years, and it received widespread praise, even winning a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album. Interestingly, the performance in Adelaide came shortly before the 9/11 attacks, which would intensify the emotional weight of Dylan's subsequent work. In the following years, Dylan would continue to evolve as an artist, actively touring and exploring new musical styles, showing that his creativity knows no bounds. This live recording captures the raw energy and spontaneity of Dylan, as he navigates his ever-evolving musical landscape.
