Throughout
the '80s and '90s, Dylan fulfilled his role of troubadour
and then some, ceaselessly roaming the world on what came
to be known as the "Endless Tour." Playing his
songs night after night, Dylan had to either reinvent them
or risk madness. He chose the former. This 1984 live
recording finds him attacking his classic catalogue with
fervor and imagination.
Backed by a rocking, no-frills band, Dylan twists and
turns his older material into interesting new shapes. He
practically rewrites "Tangled Up in Blue,"
casting it in the third person rather than the first. He
redefines "Masters of War," originally an
acoustic folk-based tune, turning it into an appropriately
raging rocker. He also finds room for his more recent
songs, turning in heartfelt performances of "I and
I" and "License To Kill," two of his finest
'80s compositions.
