I remember,the song of was my first memorise.I'm just a poor boy in China.My friends like Pops,just like Westlife,Blue,Backstreet Boys and so on,but they don't know who is the most,I think I know,maybe I have a lot of syntax errors,but,I relly love Bob Dylan.
Brilliant is a word that only comes close to describing this set. Not only does the music awe you but there is SO much defiant but yet strong and sure emotion that his music was a masterpiece despite the “boos.” The c.d. is quite literally a piece of history...it was an axis point when music was teetering on change...and honey the time’s they were a chagin’
This is my favourite Dylan album. As a performer, I think he peaked here. You can almost hear the exact moment at the end of Mr Tambourine Man when that sprawling harmonica blowing suddenly sweeps up like the wind has caught it and I find, when I'm really listening, this sound seems to lift me out of myself. I love the confrontational aspect of the second disc. And considering almost all of Bob's best songs from the '60s are here, this is one mighty mighty album. If I had a time machine I would go back and experience this concert live.
It seems as though people either love the acoustic or love the electric, but not both. They will merely like the other side, but nothing more.
I personally have always loved both. Maybe I am an exception, but Dylan's clear and distinct words give me chills on disc one. It is one of my favorite things to listen to. But just as much, I love the way he takes it away on disc two, also one of my favorite things to listen to.
I honestly couldn't pick acoustic or electric I think they are both brilliant beyond words. They each in their own way have so much feeling that is coming out of them. It's like he puts his whole soul into each word and then each strum of the guitar.
This CD makes my brain want to explode. I love it as it is. It wouldn't be what it is without the great contrast that exists between the two discs.
This is a highlight album...even if it wasn't really at Royal Albert Hall...Ha...and even if it was Dylan's 'sell out' moment...Amazing acoustic set and very infamous electric set...Any true Dylan fan has got to love this album. Great sets on both acoustic and electric side of things...This is probably amongst the top 3 of my favorite Dylan albums. The live recording sound fits so well with Dylan - the raw, emotional sound to the slightly changed songs make this album complete. Robbie's dark ,and cringing, telecaster sound add to the fullness of the electric songs. Definitely a good call on releasing this stuff. Need more old stuff like this to be released!!!
Another one from the vaults. I think I prefer the acoustic set to the notorious electric one, but it's really cool to hear punk Dylan just take down his own audience with his defiant use of electric guitar. It's more about the confrontation than the performance.

It's famous for the electric set and the yell of "Judas", but the listenable part of it is the acoustic set. A wonderful set with a Dylan in a great moment. The electric part doesn't sound well, probably because by then it was difficult to record it live.

Better the acoustic set than the electric
