Bob Dylan Señor (Tales of Yankee Power) Blackbushe 1978 Live Concert - Master tapes are for sale

[@markwaters7215]

Very proud to say I was there along with everybody else , when Dylan hit the stage it was like the second coming ! Fantastic set God bless him ❤

[@ibrahimbellil2114]

I was there.... the tears are in my eyes.I discovered Joan Armatrading.Wonderful memory. It was an amazing day. Never forgotten.

[@TheCJFootie]

I was 23 and travelled from Leicester, alone by train, for the chance to see Bob Dylan live. Well worth it.

[@Bubbacat54]

I was in among the throng about 40 yards from the stage....young , fit and hairy with my lovely girl ! Now I got a head like a billiard ball and the old body the groans every time i move !! A very long day to travel from the south, but back then, like now, I would walk the world to see Bob.

[@markwaters7215]

I was there too , had smoked a lot of opium and taken some acid. But it’s still seared into my memory. I went to see him recently at the Albert hall in London , I had a seat with my sister in row 2 directly in front of his mike 10 ft away. Within 1 minute of him opening his mouth to sing .....I was crying.. a circle fulfilled. What an experience. He’s doing that to someone else somewhere in the world right now ! Bob , I hope your never ending tour goes on for as long as possible. Even when you may stop we will continue to listen. Lots of love , mark in surrey england

[@jenniewilliams9066]

I was 22 , a young Welsh boy from Anglesey and I hitch hiked all the way to Surrey to watch my hero - well I did it and came home - it was just brilliant .

[@MrSerenjexroad]

I was a 19 year old boy from Dublin. Came over on the boat.

[@steveelliott3514]

I hitch hiked from the north, slept roughed for a few days, 20 years old, sleepily got national express bus back from London and a beautiful girl in the aisle next to me asked when I awoke if I wanted a soft drink. Good moments all along the way.

[@42awww]

Incredibly amazing!! Instant Dylan classic sounding so good. Street Legal is the most neglected masterpeice of the 20th century.

[@iainfleming2853]

Spot on

[@stewartswick3744]

Agreed big time, I’ve been listening to it for 40 years and it never gets old.

[@42awww]

@@stewartswick3744 Yes! Lyrically it may be Dylan's best. It came out when I was first getting into Bob, so luckily one of my older siblings already had it. And I fall in love with it every time as well, always changing my mind about which tune would be my fave, because it is impossible. Where Are You Tonight is my fave. For now!

[@afterlate8866]

I was there; 20 years old. Memories turning sour.....

[@michaelopm1]

I just turned 70! Saw Bob & the Band in 1974 at the Forum in California! We all flew that night with Mr. Dylan!

[@grahamblenkin2261]

Remember it well I was there with my wife Christine we are still together listening to Bob, long may it continue

[@36wikinson59]

i was there,,,what more can i say, the tears are in my eyes. Dylan (the greatest)

[@bettinamatzer9715]

Best song and version I've ever heard!

[@50kippercat]

I was 17 my mate couldn't come so went on my own and had a fantastic time.

[@raycheek2201]

a wonderful day 250.000 people there one of the best days of my life

[@stevenpeacock3531]

Yes 250.000 people Great Times were had by all.

[@TheMimifur]

Was there and what is so sad is that until finding this and some other footage, I had forgotten so much of that day. It was not long after our pal died and we were determined to go and have a good time even though Tim was gone. It is so back with me now, all these years after cos a close friend has lost her nephew in a bike crash and it all comes back to me so sort of bad and yet good to listen to this and have the years roll back.

[@wandering_not_lost]

I was there, what a great day. We lit cardboard boxes for flares at the end as he sang Forever Young. Then he flew away in a helicopter and I walked for what seemed like hours to Reading railway station and slept on the platform in a sleeping bag that a Welsh girl lent me. What memories...

[@KevCrockford]

My first big concert I was 18 my brother 28, we ended up walking home to Aldershot, my first smoke...........................happy happy days

[@TheMimifur]

We went to Blackbushe in a sort of tribute to our friend Tim who died in the April., This is not a favourite song, but it is brilliant so many years later to find this here. I think I might have to go and cry now cos this is bringing that whole era back to life so vividally.

[@olikane530]

Was there!!! 😊🎸

[@stevenpeacock3531]

Was there with one of my Brothers our Gary he was 17 Me age 22. Travelled by train from Birmingham New Street with friends as well. Fantastic Remember no buses too many people walked back to the train station called Fleet if my memory serves me right.

[@windydoughnut1]

the energy Dylan puts forth in this performance is electrifying to say the least.

[@elaineroberts8531]

I was there ☺it really was amazing.🎭

[@MsAnnestube]

I love this version as much as the album...what a great backup sisters choir

[@markh9749]

I was at Blackbushe in '78, a 13 year old seeing and hearing Dylan for the first time. Senor (Tales Of Yankee Power) with its dark complexity and elusive mystery wove a spell over me then that has never been broken. It is a wondrous song.

[@fillra0130]

Fabulous! And a fabulous show from Bob and his band! Sensational performance. I remember that at the end, like, midnight, all the cars set off at once, it was a complete jam, utter chaos, so we settled down in our cars until dawn was breaking, then made the escape with the help of the car-park marshalls... All part of the amazing experience.

[@robertnewell5057]

We came by train and slept under a hedge.

[@carlopiglione7071]

I was a 14 italian boy who ran away from a family in Eastbourne with my mate to see this gig. This changed my backdrop for ever! Bob is Bob. God bless him

[@ReMarietti]

I was there , I was 23 years old at this time and long curled hair ;-) Great memories

[@dollysbrae]

Just come across this i was there still got the Programme somewhere great day 12 hours of heaven sent music thanks for posting it.

[@joyharp3088]

❤❤❤ it and every version of his music.

[@iamramapoughnative]

Fantastic show.. stationed in the UK while i was in the USAF and this was my first concert I attended. They just dont have concerts like this here in the US.

[@Bell-ls1ob]

I lived here in the village when this was on, so couldve walked there! but I was abroad on hols at the time, so gutted I missed it.

[@TriciaWinwood]

I was there, I can't believe I've found these video's, whenever I spoke about my blackbushe time, everybody thought I was telling porkey's lol. Thanks for this, ahhhh memory's x

[@daisytheyorkiepuppyandhell4191]

I was 15 and lived near to Blackbush, I heard it all from my back garden

[@rogercarrington8466]

i just turned 22 a few months later I immigrated to usa . This concert had both bob Dylan and joan armatrading still two of my favorite singer writers.. i remember we could not get near stage and getting out to the train seemed a long time . In retrospect the concert was mostly well organized for the size.

[@59ggh]

wonderful memory. It was an amazing day.Never forgotten.

[@HTJB60]

I use to play on Blackbush Airport. WW2 building's around the perimiture. 15 year's late Bob arrived.

[@manfromutch]

Hadn't it gone dark or maybe dusk when Dylan was on ?. Being there with a bunch of lads from my town of different ages was such an amazing experience. I was 17

[@osekome]

The best version by far! I m ready when you are senor!

[@patbest642]

I was there I was 22, when Eric came on & they played 2gether AWESOME🤗

[@cobramartrogers]

young overawed 18 year old. The size and importance of the day was overwhelming. Burned in my memory is the 14 mile walk to Reading Station after because the promised transport never arrived - F you Harvey Goldstein. How good also was Joan and Graham?

[@stevenpeacock3531]

Well said Remember it all so well I thought the station was Fleet? age & memory catching up with me.

[@apostolfaliagas5552]

This is the real SENIOR with mandolin and backing vocals.

[@Ogarsound]

Wow! No more than the great majority here is taking, but I had to comment anyway: amazing! Yeah, for me this is the best version of this song.

[@elenatsvd]

bob dylan σ ευχαριστω που με τα τραγουδια σου μ εκανες να ταξιδευω και να ονειρευομαι

[@albionshrew]

What a great day this was. EC (aka 'God') just joined 'His Bobness' for one song. Could not get out of the car park 'till morning (wedged into my brother's Ford Capri with 4 compadres). Must have been my first Dylan gig and one of the best.

[@rahuliox]

who is EC?

[@archimedesnation]

I can ony wish someone in the 21sy century writes like this.

[@Leocadia333]

Bob Talk intro - “This is a recently written song. This song is inspired by a man named Harry Dean Stanton. Some of you may know him, some of you maybe not. He’s in the house tonight! Stand up and take a bow! Put the light on him! Yes, put the light on him! Yes put the light on this man! Anyway, this is called ‘Tales Of Yankee Power’.”

[@paulwilkinson9514]

Leocadia333 I always wondered at what he said.thank you so much.

[@paulwilkinson9514]

Leocadia333 pearls court 78 I have.😊

[@asthouart]

I'm sure I have a bit of bootleg somewhere ... must search for it ... or maybe I only took a photo .... don't really remember :). Nice recording anyway - and thanks.

[@immaterialimmaterial5195]

Love the backing vocals to this!

[@kalebmanning4425]

RIP Harry Dean Stanton

[@PaulSaether]

As we walked back down a very crowded narrow road to the train station after the concert I said to my girlfriend "For God's sake keep hold of me and don't fall down. You'll be trampled." "There isn't room to fall down." She said. The potential for massive casualties at some of those gatherings...

[@3rays3]

wonderful memories, all alone but never felt alone....walked from one end to the other and back again, getting booted to fuk but who cared...it was Blackbush....we were not supposed to be there but we were

[@abdouabdou5151]

Amazing ever and forever ...

[@babel1967]

Wow!! What a version

[@JaneyKirkVideoTV]

You know i never rated Bob Dylan before, never even listened much to what he sung about. Then Rab, my husband who is a huge fan of his educated me in his music and more to the point his wonderfully interesting lyrics! so much so was taken then by his songs, i recorded a few and changed them into a more country feel to suit my style.. this is one we made a very cold recording of. Bob Dylans , " Senor " Janey Kirk - Senor ( filmed in Glencoe, Scotland )

[@Nicktheguvnor]

I was there !

[@corra9707]

Senor Excellent

[@archimedesnation]

Thanks dude. Thank you very much.

[@incasilver]

Me too! For years I still had my ticket a huge yellow thing, its gone missing somewhere somehow... at least I know I was there... I was right at the front and then realised the loo's were at the back around a quarter of a million people away!

[@friend839]

Notonly wasI there (on my birtday!) but I still have the poster, framed and hanging on the wall in my house-not signed unfortunately not signed-here in Adelaide having moved here in '82. My daughter was 7 ad met her school friend there as well!! Great concert. I said at the time that if he sang Gates of Eden acoustic I could die and go to heaven. I didn't die but I was in heaven as he sang it!! Hippies grave yard they called it!

[@TheBobdylanfan]

Love Bobbie Dylan forever ❤️❤️

[@sime52]

I was there........thank you

[@keithfitzsimons815]

+Simon Blackburn How good was it?

[@sime52]

+Keith Fitzsimons pretty spacey. the estimate was 250,000 people....little security back then. That added to the sense of being something v special.....sering the messiah almost!

[@keithfitzsimons815]

+Simon Blackburn I think his best live period was around this time

[@goodnitesteve]

very nice! Keep adding them!

[@bryanweil271]

Holy God Almighty this guy has it.

[@mrsterripurcell]

See what mean, where is Blackbushe?. Didn't he bring it on tour when it was released Australia or somewhere that Street Legal was one fine Album. He did a wonderful version of it in Dublin a few years back never seen it on you tube

[@p5aul789]

This took place at Blackbushe, a small airport, near Camberley Surrey. I remember a friend of mine's brother went to this concert. This was the year I was introduced to Dylan's music. I was 17 years old at the time. Street Legal, a great album!

[@karen14ization]

was there and still have my ticket...

[@MrMohammadim]

omg ... the best one in street legal >>> full of emotions and honesty .

[@Carmela-el7fi]

Descriptive words in the song iron cross, magnetic field, hearts as hard as leather, eyes glued to the door, who possibly writes song lyrics like that now😮

[@TheChrishoughton]

Fantastic!

[@TheMimifur]

17 and grieving

[@marcosmovies1978]

In the year in that i´m born!

[@36wikinson59]

same here,,,,what a day.

[@TheMimifur]

I was there

[@raycheek2201]

still gives me a lump in my throat and the hairs on my arms

[@Hildairene2]

He also played this in1978 in the Feyenoord Stadium in Rotterdam....his first concert here ever...I remember it so well because during this song there was a thunderstorm...the sound of it added to the ominous atmosphere of the song...I don't think there is any recording of it but if there is I would like to hear it...

[@kilroyjones7786]

Awesome!!

[@kolinelida]

wish we could...but youtube have cancelled your channel - which happened to be the best on youtube. Thanks anyway!

[@JackGander]

I can't say I know the story per se, but Bob and Harry Dean got to know each other on the set of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid down Mexico way... HDS had also recently appeared in Renaldo and Clara.

[@thomassneade]

we woz there!

[@deanwal1962]

I was there and during the day a helicopter dropped backstage passes. I was fifteen and managed to get one. However, two big bullies came and beat me up for it thus denying me and my plus one an even greater experience. The police were crap.

[@deanwal1962]

+Dean 0'wal Forgot to say I still made it to the front left of the stage and still had a fantastic day.

[@spooninspoon]

wow I have a few of these on boots bot not this one! awesome

[@darrellhaywood682]

i was there with you fella me and our botty,

[@landondonovanify]

hes so weird in the late 70s, 80s. not in a bad way, just his singing and talking voice and the fact he talks so much

[@thetrevorosborne]

i was there as a 17 year old first real experience of a big live event.Too many distractions at the time to really know how good the performances were. In retrospect after hearing the bootlegs i feel the Blackbush show in terms of Dylans singing was not as good as the earls court shows a few weeks before. Afraid this version where he starts to get vocally lazy and starts wailing tunelessly in parts, is a good reflection of the show overall and the U.S leg of the tour later in the year. Check out the Earls court shows they are the representation of the 78 tour

[@robertnewell5057]

I was at Blackbushe and 3 of the Earls Court shows. I loved them all. I think the problem at Blackbushe was that, in the 70s, sound just wasn't good enough to support large scale open air stuff.

[@ozrics62]

oh by the way like Duchene whistle though

[@forrestgump7553]

When I heard that song the first time it was great. He Mentions Carbondale Il. Southern Ill University That's where I went to School for Engineering. I was thinking he also said Du Quion which would be the next stop north for the Amtrak train. Maybe he was.

[@peterdelamothe254]

Do you have any tapes left for sale?

[@Hot_Cold_Blue]

Yes, I have the original 3 FUJI cassettes I recorded at the festival
