They called him Robert Zimmerman, a weird kid, a troublemaker, a boy who talked too much about Woody Guthrie and not enough about getting a real job. But on the night he first stood on a stage holding a harmonica he’d borrowed from Dina’s cafe and forgotten to return, something happened that nobody expected….
Dylan’s guitar tech ran after him. Bob, where are you going? The generator’s coming. But Dylan was already pushing through the exit doors, November wind hitting his face. 7 minutes earlier, he’d been on stage. Now he was walking toward a street corner where a man with a weathered harmonica was playing the times they…
When you talk about the greatest electric guitar players to ever walk the earth, a few names immediately command the room’s respect. Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and B.B. King are often the first to come to mind. But if there is one man who took the torch of the electric blues, poured gasoline…
There are moments in the history of live music that transcend the simple act of a musician playing an instrument. These are the rare, lightning-in-a-bottle instances where the artist, the venue, the crowd, and the song all align in a display of sheer, unadulterated magic.
