DO LOOK BACK!

A compendium of reviews of the last few months of Bob Dylan’s never-ending career

After Bob’s latest leg of his never-ending tour was brought to an abrupt halt by Covid, here at The Society we began curating thoughts, writing, reviews, vids and comments showing how, at 80 he is still refusing to look back.

He’s knocking on a bit but Bob is not an oldie’s act, he’s not a dinosaur of rock or a has-been living on past glories … he is a powerful, dramatic, entertaining, elusive, frustrating genius of a performer who has maintained that genius (more or less) for more than half a century.

As he re-ignited his tour it became like a temple in flames – incendiary, Mephistophelean lighting and a gentle touch to his renowned rough and rowdy ways, the media seemed to have a general lack of interest in reviewing his concerts. The odd one or two appeared in big US state newspapers and mags. But it was left to the man and the woman on the street to tell us all what it is like to see Bob Dylan on stage at this point in his long, long, long career.

So, here we are reproducing many of those reviews – with the writer’s permission and recognising Bill Pagel’s boblinks site – for your delectation!
