BAND and DYLAN Acadamy of Music 1971 

The answer - none better!

+ Richard Manuel as a fellow viewer has noted above.

​@@davidkeith1499 yep

Record company credits, money and clearance that's why ! KD

It was a live album by The Band. They did not want 1/3 of it to be with Dylan. Also, I doubt that Dylan would allow them to include him. Finally, the part with Dylan was unrehearsed. The Band wanted this album to be a great live LP of them. There are some mistakes when Dylan is on stage. They do sound good. But there was no way Dylan was going to be on this great live album. That happens in '74.

@@nathanwhitten8950 Luckily it was added to the Deluxe Edition on a second CD (along with a couple of other Band tracks)

HOLY!! are you serious!? wow!

Was released on Deluxe Rock of Ages CD long ago fyi. Thats where Id bet this comes from

👏♥️

Oh Boy so good all of it.

Dylan and the band are §implý fabulous

Dylan shouts the lyrics a little too much on the flood concert.

@@TheRacboys - it's said variety is the spice of life

​@@TheRacboys that is absolutely right

The person voted it down, his sanity is already in question at this point.

Yep, his sanity is already gone, gone, gone.

I agree, but we also have to remember that Bob was burnt to a crisp in 1966. He was on the road and writing from 61-66 and just was to stoned and drunk and I heard a slight heroin addiction? Can't prove that, but he was being pulled in so many directions and he wanted to start a family, and I really think the main reason to shun the public was because of how disrespectful his audience had become towards him on his electric tour. I can't imagine a young man at 25 having to try to calm people down because he wanted to grow as a poet and musician, and all his so called friends and fans screaming at him and threatening the band for playing electric music, unreal and I'll bet all those idiots back then all feel like jack asses today doing what they did to him. Nobody ever questioned the beatles or any other group back then for changing their sound and trying new and different things, but boy did the so called folksy groups try to dismantle this young man. That's one of the main reasons i think he stopped playing and just hung out back home and continued writing other stuff. Fuck, they had woodstock in his backyard (because I had read somewhere that they were hoping he would perform) and he told them to fuck off lol. Only Bob Dylan could do that, and then when he did come back in the 74-78 period ( I think those were his very best)

If you like that period you gotta listen to the songs he did at the Guthrie tribute in 1967, can find them on here or on the album on Spotify

If you watch all the video of Dylan performing, on stage and in front of the hostile press (everybody must get stoned) in 1966, it's no surprise. It was still an amazingly fertile period for BD: the Basement Tapes, John Wesley Harding, Nashville Skyline, etc.

yes..
