Author's note:
"OK, go into you-tube, search for something like 'Dylan' + '2007', and you'll get a couple thousand hits. Remove all those with no correlation to the search whatsoever, remove all the clips of 'delightful' children/dogs/cats/ goldfish/cows named Dylan. Then out go all the cover bands/artists, as do all clips of Bob from other years. Take out the clips that are taken from otherwise available DVDs, all the duplicates [some are in there half a dozen times with different tags], all the edited versions. Then go back and start with a different 'search'. Follow up all the links in the ones you do keep. Then finally hop over to whatever other video hosting sites you can find, though in that case I never found anything that hadn't come from, or been transferred to, you-tube. Then go and check that the clips are correctly named & dated. A surprising amount aren't.And the result ?
Here you go, 150+ clips, 6 hours of viewing 'pleasure'[?] in one handy ready-to-use fully functioning DVD.
No doubt I've failed, there'll be clips I've missed [some of these were very well hidden] and there'll be clips from DVDs that have slipped through the net, but hopefully not too many. But they all have some Bob content, however tenuous.
At the top end some of these clips would stand comparison with the worst of the circulating DVDs, at the bottom end ? - they're in a class of their own. That's why God invented the 'Skip' button."PLEASE NOTE: DVDYLAN.COM DISCOURAGES THE PRACTICE OF CAPTURING YOU TUBE UPLOADS TO DVD-R, AS THIS RESULTS IN LOW QUALITY VIDEO DUE TO SEVERAL PROCESSES OF VIDEO COMPRESSION FOLLOWED BY UNNECESSARY BLOATING OF THE FILE SIZE. IN CERTAIN CASES WHEN SUCH A DVD HAS RECEIVED WIDE CIRCULATION IT WILL BE ADDED TO THE CATALOG.
