Bobsboots review:

"The recording is another story. It's simply fantastic. To quote Trevor Midgley: "Yeah, this is a good one. The Main piece is the full 1995 set from The Point, Dublin 1995. Dylan is turning in a vintage performance and has an enthusiastic crowd to play with. The vocal energy really starts to flow in All Along the Watchtower. A powerful Just Like a Woman is followed by Tombstone Blues, with both Dylan and John Jackson warming to their work. The Irish audience sing with him through the gentle and oh-so-affecting Tambourine Man and later, (and more lustily) throughout The Times They Are A-Changin’. Great atmosphere across the board and a real fun feel coming through towards the end of the gig." © 2003 (Dylan : Contraband) Trevor Midgley

" can't add to this, except to say that it's a wonderfully appreciative Dublin audience that makes Tambourine Man, The Times They are A-Changin' and Boots of Spanish Leather a sheer joy to listen to. This is one of the best of the 1995 recordings."

Expectingrain.com review:

..."show in very, very good quality (just shy of excellent, but not much- perhaps a slight bit hollow sounding and outdoorsy, capiche?) but with vocals clear and true and music all "right there." Unique track list includes "Where Teardrops Fall" in #2 slot, "TBlues" in #5 and an always welcome "Ring Them Bells" #6, appropriate for Dublin (".. for the lines are long and the fighting is strong...") with a classic Bob vocal and superb accompaniment. Sounding like a broken record, but another great acoustic set (are'nt they all) with M.TMan, Love -0/Boots. Highlights of the last half include In the Garden, Carole
King on piano on "LARS" before she falls in the pit, TIMES and then Van comes out for a ragged Real Real Gone, a fine I Shall be released and ho-hum 12&35. Overall, a very fine show. Nice sounding filler inc/She Belongs/It Ain't Me babe/JJones/TNight and, believe it or not, a very enjoyable "Tupelo Honey" with Van M. from '91...another hearty recommendation for this one."
