PERFORMANCE/HIGHLIGHTS/SPECIAL MOMENTS:
-good performance enhanced by excellent audio source
-nice harp solo on "It Ain't Me, Babe"

DISTANCE/POSITION: 8 (Filmer in right balcony at 30˙ angle; filmed between rail, so top and bottom of shot often obstructed; camera mostly on Dylan, Campbell & Kemper, limited shots of Garnier & Sexton)

AUDIO: 14 (excellent LB-6497)

STEADINESS: 9 (mostly steady once filmer gets situated)

HEADS/OBSTRUCTIONS: 5 (position behind rail limited framing of shot)

FOCUS: 13 (excellent color and resolution; spotlight on Dylan's face diminishes sharpness)

EDITING: Distortion limited the amount of footage that could be used; a/v sync was difficult to maintain, so stills added where feasible.
