Columbia CDCBS 96004 (Australia) - outside of unfolded booklet, scan by Stuart Moore (first release) Having personally only ‘found’ Dylan a couple of years earlier via the Revue tour, the live album from these shows in its original form was a true revelation to myself as a fledgling fan and I always remember marveling at how the songs had evolved in such a short period of time allowing me to find new strength and meaning in what I was listening to. My view on any new output was not in any way tarnished by a deep-rooted love and admiration for his classic songwriting period in the early 60’s and 70’s, which I was still only just getting to know, and I hungered for anything new from the great man and whatever band he could put together. The original release of At Budokan and then Street Legal therefore became firm favourites and a key part of myself getting to know the man and his music.
