Finally going to see this.
I saw Dylan in Chicago which was the opening night of his tour being reunited with “The Band”
It was the only show on that tour where Dylan stayed in stage and joined in on all The Band songs they did that night.
January 3 1974

It’s Wednesday. Time for my weekly trip down the dark alley to that Film Noir Theatre again.
This time it’s a film from 1961. From Germany. A picture set in the period right after WW2.
It’s Brilliant. And undoubtably Noir.

Tonight rewatching an all time favorite. Yes there isn’t a whole lot that’s completely true but for me it’s this music and performances. The three of them played live right onto the soundtrack. And Gary Busey becomes Buddy Holly.
