Followed by an onstage conversation between Steven Jenkins, Director of the Bob Dylan Center, and Chris Willman, Variety Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic.
Spanning decades and musical styles, this far-ranging one-hour program of short films and videos from the Bob Dylan Archive features rare and previously unreleased clips of Dylan on stage and in the studio. Selections include early acoustic versions of “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “Girl from the North Country;” an intense rendition of “Isis” from the Rolling Thunder Revue, with Dylan in face paint; a delicate performance of “Simple Twist of Fate” featuring Scarlet Rivera on violin; The Band backing a swaggering run-through of “Baby Let Me Follow You Down;” a cover of Woody Guthrie’s “Vigilante Man” with Ry Cooder and Van Dyke Parks; a glimpse into the Archive’s film restoration project with never-before-seen footage of “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue” from 1966; and many more treasures.
Note: This program features different film clips than those shown at the Grammy Museum in March 2025.
