Review:
This is a good, solid title, though nothing spectacular. TMR tries to be artistic by superimposing an image of Bob over the front cover photo. It almost works, but pales beside the photo used for Zürich. They do include a couple of photos from the Paris show which are used several times throughout the package. The back cover slips back towards the gaudy side a bit, and some of the track titles become harder to read. Dylan was on an extensive European tour in April of 2007 hitting no fewer than 25 different cities on the spring tour. A unique point to mention about this set is that it is part of a Modern Times trilogy that documented the event. This series of three double discs that highlight the tour were sold separately, but if a multiple purchase was made, the retailer was able to include a free single disc entitled Euro Modern Times. As for the performances, It's Alright, Ma is nice and powerful, but the Modern Times songs are the best with Nettie Moore and When The Deal Goes Down being the runaway highlights
