There's something about not having a perfect voice that lends so much authenticity, sincerity and soul to a particular song. Dylan has it, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Janis Joplin, Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, John Prine, Shane McGowan, Billie Holiday and yeah — even Dean Martin….none are perfect — yet, they are legends. Ha. Because there's a thrill factor to it all. This is one of Dylan's best…this is rock and roll. Don't forget the word "roll" at the end. That guarantees it's the real thing. (There are other singers too…I can't list them all).<\/span><\/p>\n

Amazing! The concentrated precision on their faces, every note delivered on time, These guys are so tight makes my teeth hurt. Accompanying the most enigmatic, musical artist on the planet, and doing it with grace and style. Of the hundred times I've watched this video masterpiece a percentage has been just for the ending. After the last chord stops reverberating (I can't help but read into the moment) a small but enthusiastic applause breaks out there is a look of enjoyment on their faces, an understated sense of accomplishment. Something has happened here. Something greater than the sum of it's parts.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
