Review of Bob Dylan: No Direction Home

Appeals to me because of my knowledge of Bob Dylan and of the greeenwich village scene of the late 50s and early 60s and because i am a New Yorker.
Also, it was good to hear people like Dave Van Ronk, carolyn hester, and Bobby Neuwirth speak. dave van ronk was especially insightful with little touches such as Dylan as a Chaplinesque figure with a great stage manner and the fear of the fans. i am not sure this program will appeal to people under 50 though. But, for me, it was an excellent show and I want to see how it plays against the PBS documentary No direction Home as this is a companion piece.

Review of Bob Dylan: No Direction Home

For the general listener - like myself - this is a fine intro to the early years in Bob Dylan's musical life. There is enough balance, between the familar and the never-before-heard, to keep the inattentive and unitiated hooked for two hours while cleaning up around the house. I'm not sure what sort of shelf life this sort of narrow (in a good way) and understated piece will have - I supect little. I am left wanting more, that's for sure. Not a bad thing. As a result of listening, I may tune into the Scorcese doc tonight. Mission accomplished. Sort of.
