Renaldo & Clara

When I saw Renaldo & Clara, many years ago, I judged it as a (failed) art-house movie. So I never got round to finding the video/DVD.

Suspecting an error of judgment, I’ve just spent time on www.youtube.com to check whether the live clips look as though the effort of getting a DVD would be worthwhile.

My, my! Some error. This stuff is magical: a white-face energised Dylan performing classics like One More Cup Of Coffee, Sara, If You See Her Say Hello, It Ain’t Me Babe, When I Paint My Masterpiece, and Hard Rain… .

Wonderful. Marvellous. The internet might have been invented just so You Tube could archive Dylan video clips!
