We have 28 songs each night, including an instrumental fanfare of A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall and around five and a half hours of entertainment, which might explain why the band took a short break mid-set each night. Seven songs from 28 February and 15 songs from 1 March were on the original double album. 33 different songs performed overall and 36 songs previously unreleased. Whilst you really should have heard the vast majority of the songs in one form or another over the years, here are some observations on many of the songs and arrangements performed over these two wonderful nights in Tokyo.

Notes

Having personally only ‘found’ Dylan a couple of years earlier via the Revue tour, the live album from these shows in its original form was a true revelation to myself as a fledgling fan and I always remember marveling at how the songs had evolved in such a short period of time allowing me to find new strength and meaning in what I was listening to. My view on any new output was not in any way tarnished by a deep-rooted love and admiration for his classic songwriting period in the early 60’s and 70’s, which I was still only just getting to know, and I hungered for anything new from the great man and whatever band he could put together. The original release of At Budokan and then Street Legal therefore became firm favourites and a key part of myself getting to know the man and his music. Bob Dylan at Budokan reached #13 in the US and went platinum, while simultaneously peaking at #4 in the UK. The album was collected by a talking tree in the PSN game Deathspank in 2010 traditionally translated into Spanish in South America: Shelter From the Storm [Cobijo Contra La Tormenta] , Blowin' In The The rear insert has the date "O-11-21" (21 Nov 1987).
