I love Bob Dylan. I grew up in sixties with Bob Dylan. Have seen him in concert at least 20 times.❤

The greatest songwriter of all time sings 2 rather obscure covers, 2 brand new songs off of Empire Burlesque, and only one "classic Dylan song". And I love every second. Bob is the best. He does what he wants.

Back in the 70/80's these epic concert events used to be mostly reported via small pictures accompanying written articles found within rock magazines. We all had to use our musical imaginations to envision these shows. The internet has certainly been very kind to all of us classic Dylan lovers.

Bob is on the good stuff -nothing but good energy and soul - He is on top of the game here :). Love this iteration of Bob . And no better backing band on planet earth than heartbreakers

Always loved this performance of "I Remember You".

I'll remember you, the deepest melancholia ballad kind of song and so beautiful 🎉taps into our own personal experiences of melancholia and the blues 💙 🎶 great album of music empire burlesque

I have been supporting from aid since college in 1985. I see there is a new concert from 2023 I cannot wait to watch! I am doing a musical history memory Lane right project right now. That is where my computer programming mind cuts in, but then I've got music going on the other side so my brain is a party and business all at the same time so that is what this page is about or maybe come we shall see! 🎉😂❤

This 1985 Farm Aid concert recording is 1,000 times better quality than the 2023 recordings online today. Tnx, muchly for posting

great concert. love the songs from the Empire Burlesque album. back up singers stole the show. love I'll remember you when I am in the great unknown and a beautiful melancholia ballad💙Willie Nelson's 1985 farm Aid was amazing!

This isn't Bob Dylan and friends. This is Bob Dylan with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and there is Willie Nelson playing behind Dylan. There are some interesting duets with his future mother-in-law Madelyn Quebec in I'll Remember You and Trust Yourself. She is the mother to Carolyn Dennis who gave birth to Dylan's daughter in January 1986, he married her in June 1986. Carolyn Dennis is the backup singer in the striped blouse in this September 1985 performance. You can tell that Ms Dennis is around five months pregnant.

damn!.....Bob looks genuinely happy!!😄....this is great!!!

Bob seems very happy here. Great gig!

Looks like he was having a good time. Nice to see. And what a great bunch of musical talent on the stage. Awesome post , thank you.

Spectacular. Thanks for posting. I heard this live over the radio at the time, taped it, and said to myself, Dang! They are on fire! Dylan is back! Youl could hear the joy coming over the radio! I also said , Man, that is his backing band!

Around this time, Dylan and the Heartbreakers recorded the title track for a movie called Band Of The Hand. And after seeing the positive response to this performance here at Farm Aid, the next summer they embarked on The True Confessions Tour. I saw it and it was great.

I had this on video back in 1985 taped from the TV. Great to see it on KZfaq. Thanks for uploading this 👏👍

I was there - about 20 feet from the front of the stage.

Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers: Not only great in their own right but also acted as the backing band for legends Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash.

Just Incredibil capacity Bob to remember all those lines ? Tunes ? How the hell is possible?

Wish I saw this live. Great sound....

I LOVE YOU BOB DYLAN

Thanks for posting this. It was great!!!❤❤❤

Fantastic sound and vision quality; good job phil

This was the good old Bob that I am used to..

Best version of Maggie's Farm!

Maravilhoso ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Kids. This is what it's like to go to a concert, to be in the moment, not talking crap to your friends and pointing phones in the air all night. Today's world sucks.

Mercy!!! thoughts just left me.

Love Bob and Tom - such riveting performances / epic!

Thank you

He looks like he is having fun .

Bob Dylan, desejo a vc e família e toda sua banda, muita saúde e muitos anos de vida, saudações aqui do Brasil.

That back up singer is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Best Maggie’s Farm version I’ve heard.

"Dylan joins Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers (who have just concluded their own set) on stage. Together they launch straight into “Clean-Cut Kid” followed by a blues song called “Shake,” seemingly a Dylan lyric set to the rune of Roy Head’s “Treat Her Right.” Then comes the live debuts of two Empire Burlesque songs, “I’ll Remember You” and “Trust Yourself,” both of which have Dylan dueting with Madelyn Quebec, who is clearly struggling to keep up with his idiosyncratic phrasing. A searing version of “That Lucky 0l’ Sun” follows, before Willie Nelson joins them on guitar for a romp through the highly appropriate “Maggie’s Farm.” Although the American TV broadcast, courtesy of the Nashville Network, manages to omit the first and fifth songs and cut the second, the excitement of the performance comes across, reaffirming Dylan’s power in concert after the very public disaster at “Live Aid ” The buzz from the concert is enough for him to suggest a more longterm collaboration with the Heartbreakers. " ~Clinton Heylin (Bob Dylan: A Life in Stolen Moments Day by Day 1941-1995)

Great to see this, sharing the mic with his soon to be second wife, Carolyn Dennis, who is carrying their child together, Desiree (born in January 1986)

nice "Aqualung" ending on Maggie's Farm

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB HONEY

Making Up for the LIVE AID Show 😬 but man I want attempt to write his words ‘ Shake ‘ awesome Obscure

When I've forgotten all the rest.

Greatest singer of Freedom!!

Wish I had a dollar for every time I've watched this. So much to love here...everyone giving it their all and making great music!

YEAH BOB HONEY YOU AND THIS FOLKS ARE THE BEST

It was better back then. Now the crowd might break into a fight over vaccination. Crazy sad times. It was a more unified country then.

Nice nice nice

As animated as I ever seen Dylan

I like the last name of Philbin because I was very close to them to a guy name Philbin when I was in fifth grade in Boy Scout camp. (1965).

This was uploaded by Farm Aid channel and removed, and you saved it to your computer.

Cool

Filipino lady. Hmm. Bob rocking those days

Is this Sara?Both are beautiful.

Nice concert Bob is in a great form.He is a great singer and genius 😂❤

YEAH YOU FOLKS ARE THE BEST

I trust more in God than in myself, honestly! Even God does not trust his angels!

♥ WEN BOBBY DANCES !!! xxxooo

I thought they started with "Clean Cut Kid", but it is not included.

..'& Friends' ??....theres no need , but why didnt you name them Johnny Fillbin??

HD!

Possibly the only person who could upstage TOM PETTY!!!😂🤣😂

is that the backup singer he married?

I love this, I just can't stand to see two people singing int5o the same microphone. it gives me cringies.

Whats the name of the first song? Never heart that one.

Miles better than Live aid...

He looks like Adam Sandler

The legend that is Willie Nelson looks so out of place here.

I think none of those likes to drink, neither weed or coca. ☺️

A kind of president.president could have three

He sounds like Kermit the Frog.

They should do a Farm Aid for the farmers next time. Not for Bob's gardeners and landscapers.
