Mads/George

I was not even aware of the other song!

I know that "Highway 51 Revisited" is not an acoustic song, but the "Before
The Flood" version, is a far more muscular version than the original. I have
many bootlegs from that tour and they all have similar aural balance, with
Robbie Robertson's guitar very prominent and  forward in the mix. I like The
Band even more than I like Dylan, so I like the music from this whole tour.
YMMV.

Cheers
Jayanand
