Notes Here is the DVD of Bob Dylan live at the Isle Of Wight in 1969.
Remarkable footage, thought never to have existed, this DVD captures part
of Dylan’s performance that day, as well as some other appearances that year
beginning with Dylan’s spot on The Johnny Cash Show on May 1st, 1969, performing
“I Threw It All Away”, “Living the Blues” and dueting with Cash on “Girl From the
North Country”. Then comes the all-important Isle Of Wight footage.
In 1969, the Isle of Wight pop festival was Bob Dylan’s festival.
This amazing footage is all that we have of Dylan’s performance that day,
and features the following tracks: The Weight (The Band), I Threw It All Away,
Highway 61 Revisited, One Too Many Mornings, I Pity The Poor Immigrant, Minstrel Boy
(cut). Rumor has it that this black and white footage was shot by a friend of
John Lennon’s who sat between him and Yoko at the foot of the stage.
Whether this is true or not, the picture and sound are remarkably good.
The DVD continues with a handful of newsreels from the Isle Of Wight Festival,
featuring still more footage of Dylan that day. The DVD rounds off with some footage
of The Band live at the Syria Mosque in Pittsburgh in November 1970, shot in color
for Dutch television: Time To Kill, The Weight, This Wheel’s On Fire and Up On
Cripple Creek.
