This is an incredible performance of one of Bob's greatest hits. He's joined by Scarlet Rivera (violin), lead guitarist Mick Ronson (just out of David Bowie's Spiders From Mars band), Rob Stoner (bass), David Mansfield (pedal steel guitar), Bob Neuwirth (guitar), Ronee Blakley (backup vocals), and drummer Howie Wyeth. Dylan's accompanied on vocals and 12-string guitar by Byrds frontman Roger McGuinn.
This footage was recorded at Harvard Square Theater in Cambridge, MA on 20 November 1975. I wanted to upload it with an overdub of the original soundboard recording, but unfortunately, the audio was blocked from UKposts due to copyright (it was officially released on "The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1975 Live Recordings" boxset). I had to overdub the most similar sounding live version of this song, which happened to be from the evening performance at New Haven Veteran's Memorial Coliseum in New Haven, CT, exactly one week prior to the Cambridge show. The audio is an audience tape, so the quality isn't great, but I decided to upload it because I thought the ghostliness of the bootleg tape paired well with the grainy, almost film-noir footage. To hear this performance with an overdub of the original soundboard recording, please refer to this compilation video I made a while back: vimeo.com/376499609.
Peace & Love,

That last chord Bob plays as an A minor but Roger plays it as a C. That's probably what threw me off when I learned it by ear if Roger does it the same way in the studio version even if Bob is playing A minor and it turns out G n' R played a C too (albeit a half step down). And I the video with Tom Petty from '86 Tom is playing a C also. IDK.

Dylan in 75. What can you say. Full of mystic fire, freshly infected by the Land of Enchantment. The power of a great Voice primarily is in the silence that they keep. From the stillness of the dancer, art arises. Having something to say orients itself in observation - witness. In another age, he is a prophet, a protector, too. It takes more than one lifetime to become Bob Dylan. That, in part, is how we recognise him. All human beings are God, with God. Some just kick ass at it more than others. Mahalo, Maestro Maestrissimo. I have watched you fly over the centuries, seen what you have overcome. No-one knows the critical role you have played in the survival of humanity. I do.

KOHD is a song with an interesting backstory, with Dylan's odd performance in Sam Peckinpah's "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid". Dylan also scored the film (as a novice in that role too). The film was not well regarded at its release in '73 but it has been reevaluated over the years and is now recognized as among Peckinpah's masterworks. But it's release marked the point when Peckinpah became so antagonistic towards the studios that they (MGM) siezed control and brutally cut and mangled Peckinpah's preferred version of the film. Dylan's score, including KOHD, suffered from the hatchet-job editing. Critics snarked Dylan's score as intrusive and inept. Peckinpah waged a long and bitter campaign against his own film and I always thought he may have unfairly associated Dylan's work with movie studio ham-handedness. A few years after Peckinpah died, someone had the idea of restoring the director's original version and that was released on DVD and coincided with the film's rise in critical rediscovery. If I'm recalling it correctly, the restored version actually cut KOHD but certainly retained that theme and Dylan's music works beautifully, hauntingly, in the restored version. I think there have since been additional releases that are closely faithful to Peckinpah's vision and which also include KOHD. I know Dylan's music appears frequently in movies but the filming of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid is stuff of notorious Hollywood legend, and I've often wondered what he thought about it all.
