Review (Gig In Japan) : The best sound quality board "Spokane 2022" from Bob Dylan's latest tour last week just released the fastest from the Uxbridge label, but the next day, the live performance of Keniwick, Washington will appear in an ultra-quality audience recording! Surprisingly, the audience recording of such a shock is due to the same taper as "Spokane 2022". In other words, it was very easy for the same person to renew Dylan's latest tour vest. What is amazing about the quality this time is that the sound image is too close. Above all, Dylan's singing voice is completely a sound board. It wouldn't be strange if it was released on a limited press CD. On the day I heard this with headphones, it was terrible to even remember the illusion that he was singing in front of me. Even "Spokane 2022" had such high sound quality, so it seems that we were able to secure an even better position this time. The details of the performance are also captured in detail, and the hustle of Dylan's keyboard judgment everywhere, and the wood bass sound played by Banmas and Tony Garnier in slow numbers such as "Crossing The Rubicon" are clearly captured. I was wondering if I could be fascinated by listening to it. The sound quality was so good that I could understand that Dylan was in great shape following the previous day's Spoken. From the opening "Watching The River Flow", he fully opened the engine. The audience near the taper screams in spite of the high-tension song, but it's ironic because it makes me realize that "Oh, this is an audience recording." Anyway, Dylan looks pretty crazy on this day, and I can clearly hear him laughing happily before and after "When I Paint My Masterpiece". From such a place, you can feel the amazing recording quality of this sound source, and at the same time, you will be impressed that he is still enjoying the stage from the bottom of his heart. After that, he muttered "Orai", and it is clear that Dylan himself was happy to be able to resume live activities in this way. The fastest release from Uxbridge is an audience album that can only be called perfect quality from the second leg of the 2022 tour, where the set list is intentionally fixed and then sung with all one's heart. The ultimate recording.

Concert Review : Absolutely wonderful show. Bob was having a good time and the audience was into it from beginning to end. The band formed the perfect sonic pouch for Bob's elastic and expressive vocals. Gotta Serve Somebody might've been the crowd favorite and got a lot of people on their feet. The focus and feeling he put into Made Up My Mind was the crystalline moment of the night for me. "We got Bob Britt on electric guitar. Bob said he saw a bull sleeping in front of our hotel. I told him that's a bulldozer."
