Dylan Moments

On the day Bob Dylan was 70, the Tom Morton show asked folk to send in their Bobmoments. Here are a few:

I saw him at The Odeon, Renfield Street, glasgow but I think it was in 1965 (after the Manchester concert you mentioned). He did the first half solo and acoustic and appeared after the interval with The Band. Before he started with "One too Many Mornings" there were indeed cries of "Judas" and "sell out" from the audience but they were drowned out right away by most of the audience cheering him on. After "Brand New leopard skin hat" everyone in the cinema was with him.John McMahon

Went on a school trip, somewhat memorable but that is another story, anyway this involved a bus trip from the Highlands to Heathrow. The hippy teachers had their guitars and entertained us with Dylan songs (amongst others). I came home at bought Street Legal as this was the current album and have been hooked on the genius that is Dylan ever since. Street Legal is just a superb album.Norrie Maclean

The year was '65. The label was a bright orange CBS and the intro was high hat then glorius hammond by Al Kooper. You guessed it: Like a Rolling Stone. My fave musical moment ever! That track had absolutley everything! Graham

Saw His Bobness at the Barrowlands, after the last song (Like a Rolling Stone) which near took the roof off during the chorus singalong, he grabbed the mic and interacted with the crowd complete with a nasally rasp: "Hey, I've been played a long long time, and ain't nobody else ever managed to sing along with meeeeeeeeeeee". Priceless moment. Mark Copeland

I have seen Dylan twice. True to form one of them remains one of the finest gigs I have ever attended and the other one of the worst... Seeing my usually restrained Dad cutting loose to Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 at the 'good' gig will remain a favourite memory of mine forever... or until the newly revised rapture date. Danny Harrison
