MR. TAMBOURINE MAN - 1990 LIVE

I found another live performance with Dylan, Roger McGuinn and David Crosby singing Mr. Tambourine Man, written by Bob Dylan. He comes on stage a few minutes into the song. A surprise...

I sent it to Ken and got the following comment:

"just got 'round to watching the video (never seen it b4) & had a couple of impressions.
1. great
2. David Crosby evidently lives forever/ McGuinn tried his best to harmonize with Bob (whose voice never would have made it out of Greenwich Village if not for his poetry) as in
"one hand waving free - silhouetted by the sea..."

3. whether it is by the sea or in yr backyard or in yr living room - the wave is joy & freedom incarnate.
i imagine a woman in a full skirt - her holding one side for movement's sake, twirling by seashore w/ the other arm waving free - obviously forgetting today's troubles until tomorrow.
thanks - i really enjoyed it."
