This
document of the historic summer-of-1987 live pairing of
the rock era's premier singer/songwriter and its
longest-running psychedelic adventure-cum-sideshow is not
nearly as great as the shows themselves were. Yet, it
exemplifies rather eloquently what each brought to the
party. Dylan, obviously, brought the tunes--but not just
the acknowledged classics. As the dry reading of
"Joey," his mid-'70s tribute to gangster Joey
Gallo, rightfully suggests, Dylan kept the Dead on their
toes with his choices. The Dead, of course, brought their
indescribable way with a song, their ability to turn any
tune into a jam-friendly, lyrical boogie. And as the
opening "Slow Train Coming" rightfully suggests,
when this weird combo of talents clicked, every dusty
corner of Dylan's catalog got a unique makeover.
