At one time he was their more prominent artist, but they've now been releasing mainly German shows of various artists and genres. This is a sharp looking triptych with bold fonts and nice photos. The silk screened CDs are identical to the cover, and to each other (except for the disc number). The outside and inside digipak are shown smaller than actual size from the links above. Full size images have been provided to accommodate jewel cases. At one time, Swingin Pig was at the top of the heap as far as quality packages and sound goes. No longer the case, this recording presents Dylan's vocals way out front to the detriment of the band that sounds a bit muted and muffled in the background. Perhaps it's the large venue, as this is Dylan's first appearance there. There are several highlights, but also a few that don't work so well... relegating this to only an average show. As for the bonus material, the Pig sticks on highlights from a 2005 show, evidently only because they have it lying around. A couple of neat songs, but there were much rarer highlights from this show. Being in London, Dylan pays tribute to the late Joe Strummer during encore by playing one verse of the Clash's title track. © 2008 CD Pinkerton / bobsboots.com |
