Bob Dylan Releases DVD of Newport Performances
What's life without the occasional DVD? No stranger to cross-media promotions, XM radio host Bob Dylan will release The Other Side of the Mirror: Bob Dylan Live at the Newport Folk Festival 1963-1965 via Columbia/Legacy on October 30.
Collected on the DVD are 80 minutes of Dylan's performances at the titular festival during the titular years, most of which are previously unreleased. Aside from an interview with the project's Academy Award-winning director and producer Murray Lerner, the DVD has no bonus features.
For those who can't confine themselves to the mere home theater experience when it comes to live Dylan, he and his band have a handful of U.S. dates left on their previously reported tour with Elvis Costello. The next of those shows is in Iowa City on October 24.
After that tour ends, the I'm Not There Dylan tribute concert takes place November 7 in New York City. Perhaps not so coincidentally, the I'm Not There soundtrack drops October 30, the same day as the Newport DVD.
