Drop what you're doing and go to whatever streaming service you prefer and go listen to "The Concert for Bangladesh"
"Wah Wah" on the album is great, BUT LIVE? AT THIS CONCERT? It's on a totally different level.
Same with "My Sweet Lord" and "Bangladesh"
And if you're a Dylan fan, he sounds better than ever
And if you're not a Dylan fan, you might be after listening to this.
I seriously cannot recommend it enough.
GO NOW!

The Concert For Bangladesh is now on streaming services, featuring that dreadful revised cover from 2005 that totally misses the point of the whole event.
☝️ This is what the cover SHOULD look like you cowards. George wouldn't have budged on that.
To paraphrase Billy Preston: That's the way George planned it, that's the way George wants it to be...

The CONCERT FOR BANGLADESH (1972) - BOB DYLAN POSTERS (Part 9/10)
When George Harrison decided to put together a live concert, the FIRST benefit rock concert ever assembled to help the Bengali people after the devastating floods, he put together an All-Star band helmed by Leon Russel and invited Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Badfinger, Ravi Shankar, his fellow Beatle Ringo Starr ...and persuaded Bob Dylan to come out of semi retirement as he hadn’t played live since 1969. The result is one of the best ever recorded and filmed live concert with a level of musicianship and camaraderie rarely equalled.
Check all the various posters above from the US, Japan, Sweden and France (click on each for details)
Director: Saul Swimmer Actors: Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Ravi Shankar, Ringo Starr

He smiled in that first gif and I just knew he was looking at Bob, even before seeing the gif bob is actually in.
