This is concert number 51 in our series in which we are trying to find a decent recording of a Dylan concert for each year from 1961 onwards in which Dylan performed and put them all together in one index, so if you suddenly want to know what Bob sounded like in one particular year, hopefully it will be here. But of course, as we go on and on it gets not just to find a recording we can link to, but also, one for each year.
Obviously some years Bob didn’t tour, but if you take a look at our list below, and have found on the internet a concert for one of the years missing, please take pity on an old man (me not Bob) and email the URL of that video, with your name, and whether you are giving me permission to quote you as the gracious finder. I’m at tony@schools.co.uk
