Bob Dylan Tight Connection to My Heart, New York City, the Beacon Theatre Oct. 19, 1990

Performed during the final show of Dylan's 5-night stand at NYC's Beacon Theatre, Oct. 19, 1990, this version of Tight Connection to My Heart is one of only 14 times Dylan has played the song live to date.


Another performance was June 2, 1990 at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, Canada, also available from The Casper Collection.


It's interesting to compare the two and the difference four and a half months made.  


As far as Dylan's appearance and condition at those 1990 Beacon shows, I'll just quote his own words and leave it at that:


"There are  things I could say but I don't
I know the mercy of God must be near"


And thank God, it wasn't too far off!
