Hello and welcome to the first Magnetic Movements on line. I hope that we can make this the definitive record of video recordings on Bob.  The basic principles remain the same as in the old Freewheelin’ Magazine with the added bonus now of colour shots taken from each video. A further service is available on the Home Page. As an added feature to members we are making available the most comprehensive list of videos in circulation. Every known video is listed all graded with the DASHFI codes listed above. PLEASE NOTE we are NOT able to list the whereabouts of these films so please do not ask. But rest assured all are out there somewhere ! 

I have for this first issue duplicated a few films that were listed last time, in order to make stills from them available and as this has been a rather quiet month video wise!

Desolation Row @ / To Ramona @ / Tangled Up In Blue @ / Girl Of The North Country @ / Seeing The Real You At Last  / Lay, Lady, Lay / Most Likely You Go Your Way (And I'll Go Mine) / You Ain't Going Nowhere / Not Dark Yet / Highway 61 Revisited  //// Love Sick / Like A Rolling Stone / It Ain't Me, Babe @ / Not Fade Away / Blowin' In The Wind @ 

A Few older ones to start with though I’d pass on this, distant unsteady and not properly in focus hardly a joy to watch. The group sound rather “plonky” as well tonight verrrrrrry strange Rolling Stone

30-10-99            MILWAUKEE ARENA, MILWAUKEE                                              87.00

I Am The Man Thomas @ / The Times They Are A-Changin @ / Its Alright Ma @ / Tangled Up In Blue @ / All Along The Watchtower / Every Grain Of Sand / Silvio / Not Dark Yet / Highway 61 Revisited /// Love Sick / Like A Rolling Stone / Blowin In The Wind @ / Not Fade Away

A solid rather than outstanding show this, nice to hear an imaginative Silvio again. The video is a fair effort but nothing special some copies seem to be Camera transfers and these tend to be poorer resolution.

Somebody Touched Me  @ / Mr. Tambourine Man @ / It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) @ / Boots Of Spanish Leather @ / Tangled Up In Blue @ / Man Of Peace / You're A Big Girl Now / All Along The Watchtower + Jorma Kaukonen / Highlands / Highway 61 Revisited + Jorma Kaukonen  //// Love Sick / Like A Rolling Stone / Friend Of The Devil  @ + P Lesh / Not Fade Away + Lesh, Haynes, Kaukonen / Alabama Getaway + Lesh, Haynes, Kaukonen / Blowin' In The Wind @ / Rainy Day Women Nos. 12 & 35

This was one of  my favourite ‘99 shows What a set list. The taper is situated at the extreme right of the stage so Dylan is often in profile. I find this a very intimate angle and does a lot to aid the viewing of this show. Unfortunately this has been camera transferred and not very  well at that. Anyone got an NTSC copy I can see??

I'm A Rovin' Gambler @ / Mama, You Been On My Mind @ / Ballad Of Hollis Brown@ / Tombstone Blues / Simple Twist Of Fate / I'll Be Your Baby Tonight / Masters Of War  @ / Boots Of Spanish Leather @ / A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall @ / To Be Alone With You / Where Teardrops Fall / The Wicked Messenger / Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat (e)  //// Love Sick (s) / Like A Rolling Stone / If Dogs Run Free @ / All Along The Watchtower / Knockin' On Heaven's Door @ / Blowin In The Wind @

A nice show pretty well film ed that captures much of the effective lighting of the night. Dylans asset by this time has become a little workmanlike but this is still very much worth your attention.
