Mr. Dylan tore it up at a Grammy subsidiary event - jazzboCR - 08-02-2015

At the charity gala where he was being honored, Bob Dylan gave a 35-minute speech, off-hand, that had the audience galvanized. Here's a report: http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/02/07/at-grammys-event-bob-dylan-speech-steals-the-show << Can't wait for the DVD of that tribute show.

thanks for that jazzy...
i read the report...
i would love to see that speech in full as its not very often he speaks in public,allbeit his disdain for reporters etc...

and the award will help sell a few thousand more copies of that abysmal covers album...what to they say...'any publicity is good publicity'

i havent seen friday's verion of "blowin in the wind' by Neil Young, but here's two live versions from Mr.Young

first one is his haunting/eerie version from his "weld" live cd
