Bob Dylan "Hard Rain" LIVE performance [Full Song] 1975 | Netflix

[@thereisnospoon52]

Dylan does covers of his own songs. Fantastic! Love ya Bob.

[@RaxOldies]

Yep...always !!!

[@jonnymoka]

He rather play it differently every time if I recall

[@conorkennedy3304]

He pretty much does. There is a buch of testomony that he did that in the studio all of the time. Think about classics like 4th-street and Rolling stone and remember that they were live in the studio with dubious preperation. That stuff was all one-off by large accounts.

[@jarrettfinney4882]

Its impossible to do a cover of your own song lol i do like this version a lot more tho. Just personally.

Dylan was on another planet during this time. He attacked songs from his repertoire (like this one) with a vocal intensity that was unusual and would never to be repeated.

[@kenkaplan3654]

One of the greatest versions of this song EVER. First heard it on a bootleg. Blew my mind. Boy did he recapture the fire. No one else would dare this. No one like him. I think this might be the greatest reinvigoration and reinvention of a classic song *an artist wrote* I've ever seen. First heard it on a bootleg album. Wonderful to see the video.

[@kikovazquez7277]

Yes, it is incredibly impressive. Unfortunately the night I caught Rolling Thunder when I was living in Portland, Oregon, he was either ill or just in a mood to suck. As opposed to what we see in this video with the rich precision architecture of his vocal taking him and the song to another level, the night I saw the show I can only remember him barking and barfing the vocals throughout the concert. He became my idol when I was 11 and his first 2 albums were dominating the music and imagination of a part of my world. And although I knew he was capable of moody performances when I saw Rolling Thunder at the age of 24, I had never been so disappointed.

[@kenkaplan3654]

@@kikovazquez7277 I stopped going to see him after the 80's and he stopped singing and was called "rap master Bob". Part of it may be his voice was going. I won't see him. I saw alive version of Watchtower performed a week ago and I have no interest in that kind of delivery. I did see him twice on the 1974 comeback tour and both concerts were tremendous. Nothing will change my love for him, his influence on my life or the incredible legacy he has left behind on records and Cd's.

[@kadebarry]

The best version of one of Dylan's top tier songs. His voice is crystal clear and the words are daggers. I love that it is literally Rockin.

damn.... I remember when I was young... much younger than today.... And living in Wichita, Kansas... No one of any real import stopped in Wichita... unless they were desperate... and then on the radio... they said.. in less then a week... Bob Dylan would be playing Henry Levitt Arena... The Rolling Thunder Revue... had a day off and they decided to spend it playing for the people in Kansas.... It sold out in minutes literally. I couldnt afford it anyway... and then the day of the show, we heard there were tickets available... So I begged and pleaded my parents to help me out here... Finally they relented and said if I would also pick up tickets for my brothers... they would pay for our tickets... All the way to the ticket office at Century 2... I kept thinking it wasnt real.. my friends had lied to me... tricked me to make me look a fool.. but sure enough.. there were tickets... $8.78 per ticket... And so I got to see Bob Dylan.. and Joan Baez... and Kinky Friedman.. Mick Ronson.. Roger McGuinn... and many others. I remember that Dylan took forever to come out... and he came out strumming like a madman.. and played Mr. Tambourine man... about 2 times faster than normal.. and then he played alone for the longest time.. It was mesmerizing. And then others joined him.. and it was a party. They played forever... yet too soon it was over...

The most prolific songwriter and what a unique performer. He can't sing or play guitar very well but it just doesn't matter. He is such a force of nature. He takes this song with incredible lyrics and completely turns it on its head. Like he is about to explode. Really love it. And I am used to the mellow Joan Baez version of this song which is easier to understand the lyrics. But that version is in this world. This performance of Bob Dylan is from some other world.

@@hill16gs83 I have checked Luke Kelly's bio and I cannot find any songs that he actually wrote. He was a brilliant baladeer, but not a songwriter. He sang songs by Dominic Behan Ewan McColl, Patrick Kavanagh, Phil Coulter, among others. An Irish songwriter and singer of that generation, equal to, and in my estimation surpasses Bob Dylan on occasions is Van Morrison. Van Morrison's classic Astral Weeks album recorded in Boston, MA in 1968 has withstood the test of time, ranks among the best of all time. In addition U2, Cranberries (Deloris O Riorden), the Corrs, Jimmy McCarthy among others have all wrote classic songs that will withstand the test of time.

It comes from Renaldo & Clara (kind of) - that movie never got released in America at all and not on home video anywhere because it's an unwatchable mess, but there is good Rolling Thunder concert footage interspersed throughout. I say "kind of" because the editing throughout Renaldo & Clara is exceptionally awful, and a lot of the shots here weren't in the film (like the Mick Ronson closeups), so they clearly went back not to the R&C negative but back further to the original camera footage in order to piece this together. I'm honestly shocked at the amount of work that it probably took because the Renaldo & Clara finished product is such a mess and there would have been an excellent chance that the footage that didn't make it into the film might have been lost or unsalvageable.

The great Rob Stoner🎸

Rob Stoner posted this clip only today 30 Dec 2024 on his FB page and noted: "The sorry few who have commented that the turgid, plodding waltz version in a lower key is preferable to this passionate performance need to check their pulses and their hearing. When Dylan began playing his surprise borefest performance of this song at Fort Collins, I was mystified. Especially because we had been doing it THIS WAY for two tours. I can dig that it's his band, he likes to pull surprises, his schtick is to be Mr. Unpredictable etc. but his 8 minute Colorado slow waltz snoozefest pales in comparison to this tight rocking arrangement we'd devised. Here is the sonic evidence that BD's 5/23/76 choice was a poor decision."

It’s nice to hear him sing and understand the lyrics live.

Excellent live performance, brilliant film restoration and a really great hat. What more could you ask for?

[@lastofthe4horsemen279]

Ive always loved that hat.It was a huge influence on my life..

Во моментов негде лее силен дожд, а јас ја слушам оваа прекрасна изведба во живо од мојата младост...и плачам од радост

The Revue was about three thing for Dylan, the music, having fun & driving the bus. And boy was he fucking great!!!

Back in the 1990s listening to Bob Dylan and reading John Steinbeck books made me fall in love with America. Maybe some day I'll visit although the place I imagine probably doesn't exist

Phenomenal. In fact, all performances during this period of his were phenomenal.

[@lizzy27pjs]

IMO this might be his best live performance ever and this is damning with highest praise possible

[@vargaso]

The entire Before the Flood live album is stunning, my favorite, and IMO, the best, live album ever. It's from this period.
