Bob Dylan - Ballad of a Thin Man (Live in Chicago 1974)
Here's one of the best renditions of "Ballad of a Thin Man" from the legendary 1974 tour. This was recorded at the Chicago Stadium on 4 January 1974, the second night of the tour. Dylan hadn't been on the road since 1966, but he came back full swing. Nearly every night of the tour was sold out before it began; Promoter Bill Graham estimated the gross revenue to be almost $100 million. This venue had a capacity of nearly 20,000. Although it was a commercially successful run, Dylan became weary of these massive crowds. This is one of the reasons why the subsequent "Rolling Thunder Revue" tour played mostly in smaller theaters and gymnasiums. Though Dylan may have preferred smaller crowds than this one, you'd never know; Live Dylan doesn't get much better than this!
On a separate note, I'd like to once more ask for your support. This is a free service, and I am a college student trying to make a living as a singer-songwriter, which has been difficult during the pandemic. If you enjoy Dylan, you might like what I have to offer. If you have the means, please purchase my new album "2nd Impressions":
