This DVD would only rate 3 stars because many of the songs being incomplete, but I rate it 4 for quality content. Lots of it is a bit shaky & sometimes Bob is lost among the heads, but when it's good, it real good! It does actually get better as it goes along.
Notable things:
IBYBT is interrupted midway through by about 30 seconds of Drifters Escape, then it falls back into IBYBT for the harp solo.
Watch closely to catch Bob's quirky smirk when the audience sings along in JLAW. They really let it out and from this point Bob seems to really be playing for them!
At the end of the harp solo in Ballad of a Thin Man, Bob quickly puts the harmonica down and mouths something to the band. Looks like he says "I'm through", at which point Larry takes over.
Lots of water dripping from Bob's face during Floater. Yes, it's that clear & close at times, this being one of them.
More fun audience sing along during Like A Rolling Stone. Clearly he is enjoying this as he directs the crowd with one hand. We get to see Bob as he comments about the audience's singing before the band intro and then another classic hand thing at the mic before they launch into All Along the Watchtower.
Bob in the news is also very worthwhile. Several different news casts complete with Bob getting his diploma. This stuff is grade A quality.
