What is so great to see is that is just like ANY band practice I've ever participated in. Guitars noodling in the background, no one can get everyone's attention, etc . Even the masters are like the rest of us!
Well when any modern musicians have the history, followers, hit songs, as these people get them together and sing a Taylor Swift song and see if anyone says things about them like these comments 🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🎤🎤🎤🎤🎼🎼🎼
G.E. Smith!!! Can't really imagine anybody else with the personality and skill/talent to direct this powerhouse room/stage.... not to mention the personal credibility as a musician.
I love live music, I like the sound of guitars, it takes me back to the 70s, 80s, when I heard it for the first time. Thank you for sharing this beautiful memory!
Everybody having their say while his Bobness quietly sticks to himself most of the time. It's all about his song and he's blending in like it's no big deal!
Just a funny note, Rodger Mc Guinn was turned on to the Rick 12 when he and his Byrd mates went to see George Harrison in The Beatles movie A Hard Days Night. George was playing the Rick 12.
During the Live performance, GE was hoping around like a cat on a tin roof. Pointing, nudging, reminding each performer when it was their turn to step up. Nerve wracking!!!
What a f***ing unbelievable cast of musical icons! G E Smith is my new hero - what magician he was to get that crew to perform to a T. How did I miss that concert?
Thank God somebody was smart enough to film this. This many heroes In one room. Just being there self. Don't know what we would have done Without Them ?
Bob worked nonstop for four days & nights making it come together. It was his tribute concert so he could have just relaxed and done his set but no, he chased perfection as ever. The mark of the man.
But if you ever see an unedited version of the performance, you'll notice how slurred his singing truly was for this song. Almost all of the available versions are edited and his voice is dubbed and you can't see his lips move.on the rare occasions when his face is shown.
@@gr1629 . How did you come upon this info? Can you reference something? If this is so, that's something worth knowing those of us who are interested in Dylan.
@tenparab ~ At 1:48, talking to Clapton, is G.E. Smith who was the musical director of Dylan's 30th Anniversary Concert. Smith was, at one time, the lead gutiar player for Hall & Oates and also played lead gutiar in Dylan's 1988-1990 touring band. From 1980-82 he was married to the late Gilda Radner. Smith was also, at one time, the musical director for Saturday Night Live.
Que maravilha tanta genialidade junta. Trata-se realmente de uma constelação primorosa e bela. Um dos meus sonhos, não possível mais, pois o nosso saudoso gênio GEORGE HARRISON, o mais agregador e brilhante compositor já não está entre nós, seria ve-los juntos novamente em memorável apresentação. CONCERT FOR GEORGE HARRISON foi uma emocionante e brilhante homenagem ao nosso saudoso ídolo, mas infelizmente por razões que desconheço alguns participantes deste show não estiveram presentes.
Yes, but you left out Tom Petty & Eric. Add Roy Orbison & you've got The Traveling Wilbury's! How did I ever miss THEIR tour?!? Only Dylin lives on and plays now . . .
Lots of history on this stand, Georges talking to Roger, Eric in the back ,Bob getting in tune, awsome sight, it,s the musical history of my past sixtie years, unforgettable moment, I,d like to freeze it in time for posterity.
Soviele begnadete großartige Musiker. Ich kann es mir unglaublich oft anhören und meine Begeisterung wächst ständig! Einige sind viel zu früh gestorben!
Everyone gives Clapton the "heads up" when it comes to THE gutiar player of the group but McGuinn can make that 12 string electric Rickenbacker come to life AND Neil Young is just outstanding as well. What I wouldn't give to have these guys sitting around in my living room, drinking brews and smoking a few while playing their musical instrument of choice. The landscape of my youth included every one of these guys and I'm hoping Dylan does it again in 2012 to celebrate 50 years.
@ronatholl ~ Yes your correct, Tom Petty is playing a 12 string acoustic gutiar while Roger McGuinn (in black, leading off the singing @ 2:17) is playing the gutiar that created the trademark signature sound of the Byrds in the 1960's; his Rickenbacker 12 string electric gutiar.
Could this be a vision of "rock star heaven"? Dylan's lyrics are so abstract that everyone needs to read off the page. Dylan's original recording of MBP was a waltz.
Roger McGuinn, is the senior member of this group and can still teach all of them some lessons. Without that jangly Rick, and his arrangement of this song for the Byrds, it would never have sounded so good on stage for this group.
Both Eric and Neil riffed their hearts out in the concert. My theory is that we will have to make do with 'unofficial' clips for some time. As soon as 'Dylan's Nobel prize for literature 2016 wsa announced, all 'official' versions of his music disappeared like lightening. He's in a different place now, all gone to a higher place.
It's sooo sad to think that in today's music industry ... you put bieber gaga kesha katie perry and others on stage people would freak out saying omg this is amazing but no no ... THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!
We've played this Song and others with our Band, I cry for this time. Many Songs: Mr. Tambourine Man, All I really want to do, Why, My Back Pages, Turn, Turn, Turn, Eight miles high, 😢😢😢😢
@MsAnnestube Hi..here's a little background on the Wilburys...they formed in 1988, 5 years before this clip was shot. George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison comprised the band. Together with Jim Keltner, they recorded a song for the B side of a Harrison single. In May of 1988, they made their first album which was released in October 1988. Tragically, a few weeks after the albums release, Orbison died of a heart attack.
IALL of them were/are great musicians and all of them admired and respected eachother's work and secretly wished they'd written at least 1 song 1 of the others had written! Luckily they were all good friedns and able to put aside all their egos and fame to form one amazing tribute to Bob Dylan as well as participate in many other little get togethers/jamsover the years.
Look at Eddie Vedder in the background @7:45 🤯 A room of incredible musicians!! Eddie did an incredible job singing "MASTERS OF WAR" THIS IS AWESOME VIDEO!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AWESOME VIDEO 😊 🩷 🤘✌️
Sweet licks and solo from Eric Clapton... but the solo in the live concert was superb, simply awesome. Sadly, the video of the concert suddenly disappeared from youtube.
@@alimodiandude it's still on the channel but it is not public, at least in Europe. But honestly the whole concert should be here, such a beautiful thing, at least it's on spotify
@azzaboi93 ~ Didn't I notice George Harrison? I was 17 years old when the Beatles made their 1st appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in February of 1964. I owned every single Beatles' record album ever recorded, saw every Beatles' movie (Hard Day's Night, Help, Yellow Submarine, Magical Mystery Tour and Let It Be), attended their 1966 concert at Dodger Stadium in L.A., bought my 1st Beatles' 45 RPM record in early February '64 and grew up with them. Did I notice him? Kinda.
Me too, ditto to everything you said except I was 7 when They made their first appearance on Ed Sullivan..whole family glued to the tv. Hopefully you saw the clip of this at the real concert..George was very noticeable, he closed out the song doing the last verse and got the biggest ovation of all..It's here on RU-vid, I'm sure you've seen it. So incredible! I can watch it every day and not get tired of It! Cheers 😎
Look at all my heroes... They kinda made me who I am. So many passed on- the rest are elderly men- they weren't immune to time. Wouldve loved to be in that room!
Coincido contigo, MrCostanica. George tenía un gran espíritu, un gran corazón, y eso le valió tener como amigos a muchos de los más grandes músicos de rock en la historia de este mundo. John era un rebelde, un inconforme con la sociedad, con lo establecido, y así lo plasmó en muchas de las letras de sus canciones. Paul siempre compuso más pensando en el bolsillo que en otra cosa. Y Ringo... bueno pues Ringo era Ringo.
It's funny watching this because Clapton didn't look like he knew if he was suppose to sing at the rehearsal or at the event. Maybe Dylan just wanted to stand at the mic and confuse him twice.
