Magnificent performance from my fave EVER, David Bromberg. 1 of the best lines ever - "I wanna be your lover baby, don't wanna be your boss. Just don't say I never warned you, if your train gets lost!" Thanks for posting! Sharing. ✌❤
Never compare what you can do with someone else's talent. Just enjoy the notes and don't you ever give up. I've been listening to Bromberg for close to fifty years and Lord knows I will never reach that level but I am better than I was and not as good at the same time. He does the best versions of Delia was a gambling girl and Mr Bojangles.
I saw him in Amherst, Ma about 1972. I became a fan. I have seen him several times since. He is one of the great guitar player who ever lived. My favorite is Derek Trucks but David is #2. Listen to him sing Dehlia.
Still delivering, brother. Thanks. How late'll ya play till? That would be up to the Father. My prayers for you and us all, that He be merciful on us all, now and forever. Amen. Love you, brother. And again, thanks.
He is the Professor of the blues and plays many stringed instruments. He took many years off from making music; making instruments. And he has been this great back to 30 years ago. Don't let the glasses fool you. lol
Thanks for sharing... great cover...Bromberg can make any song so much better..extremely talented artist.. his version almost made me cry, but I decided to laugh instead ....
I'll be the contrarian here and say that the blues comes from the soul. And that's what David gives us here, some of his soul. In that context, he's a genuine blues singer.
David you're the best love you from the very first time I heard you I thought 1972 thought you once live after 35 years unbelievable getting ready to go see you March 15th 2017 third row Center can't wait
Very Nice...David is one of my favorite guitarist since I was sitting at a party sometime during the late 70's when someone put an album on.... and I was amazed and said "Who is that"? They said "David Bromberg" and I was Hooked.
Big bad David. Teach us how to still laugh when we're pushin old and tryin to hold on in some brutal corporate dungeon. I've been waitin for years for that sun in my back door. Think I see a few rays when I hear your music. Thank you bro!
I am going to smash my guitar in the classic Pete Townshend style after seeing him play this. How do you get to be this good? I guess it is a God given gift.
Can't sing the blues? Sorely debatable. Depends which side your blues are butterfielded. But man, this is a Dylan song! You expect him to sound like Buddy Guy?
I agree. It don't much to sing the blues, and sing it well, even if you're just talking it through. Love the P. Butterfield connection. I'm so happy when I have the blues. And content in assuredness in Jesus Christ. Amen.
Just because people Can cover Dylan songs, doesn't mean they Should; this is adroit and in its own terms flawless but it just ain't right, it's not even right when Dylan covers it.

With this performance David makes me feel like he's an old friend hangin' at my place relaxing. Welcome, David.
It just doesn't get any better than this, the virtuosity of the guitar, the pureness of voice.
I saw David live once jam in his nyc apt. w my friend Steve B. Awesome! '69.
First saw David play at St Peters in Jersey city, back in the 70's. Great Band.
Man alive David Bromberg is great!👍🎸🇨🇦

We only need one word to describe David & that would be LEGEND ..
Nothing will ever surpass Dylan's original version, but this is absolutely beautiful! The extreme demands of playing solo are fully met here.
😂
just like fine wine it only gets better with age.

One of the best shows I’ve ever seen with Chris Daniels and the Kings as his opener and band
A sublime version of one of my favorite Dylan songs. Thank you!
A true master and worldwide treasure

It's always good when David gets down to it.
Great version of this song. Beautiful Martin guitar. Wow, this is awesome.
Always one of my favorite entertainers and musicians....
I'm glad David's still around regaling us with tales of woe and sorrow and delight...
How late do you play
David, I think I still owe you a hundred bucks for the Erica session playing bass. You sound good ole boy. Lotsa Love.

David you're the best love you from the very first time I heard you I thought 1972 thought you once live after 35 years unbelievable getting ready to go see you March 15th 2017 third row Center can't wait
2:58-3:02 put a smile on my face. What comes after is awfully sweet, too.
This is blues taken to its finist limit
Kate Allen g
so beautiful
Wonderful version. David made it his own song.
Any singer with talent can make a dylan song their own . IMHO that is proof of Bob's musical genius
I love this
F....ing Masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very Nice...David is one of my favorite guitarist since I was sitting at a party sometime during the late 70's when someone put an album on.... and I was amazed and said "Who is that"? They said "David Bromberg" and I was Hooked.
Me too.... Him and Leo Kotke appeared to me about the same time....
My Feet Are Smiling.

Greg Tucker bbeautiful i hope all is well today
Love him...

Nah. You play it 12 hours a day. Then god gives you talent.
dig your solo arrangement in E. David
Oof is I can think. The mastery, the feel, the tone, it's...oof.
The Blues The Truth
anyone knows what model of Martin is that?
ever since "Sharon", I've been a fan.
Ever since i heard "The Holdup" on WREK in seventy-mething.
Covered by many but none finer than this.
I can tell he has a reverence for Dylan.
looks like you can't see to well either that looks more like the Bromberg signature model M45 than any resemblance to a D45.
Volume
Is "it takes a train to cry" a reference to Hank Williams? Should be.
Dylan's envious
This is a delight to listen to. Watching, not so much; that's not David's fault at all. But when the sync is this botched, watching it becomes hard.
Even BB King would say hot damn
He sure can play a D45. now that i"m old i can't sing either. oh well
It's not a D45. I'm pretty sure it's an OM model, maybe a 28
It's a 35 o, oo,or ooo model@@rzirpolo

Bullshit.
Total crap!!!
Eek, he can't sing the blues...
