Bob Dylan- Hammersmith Apollo

Wow! after 50 years of gigging and at the age of 70 Bob Dylan still knows how to rock. Despite recent criticisms of his gigs as of late i could not pass up the opportunity to see him supported by a truly majestical Mark Knopfler. Yes true the voice has perhaps changed, not faded, but this only reinvents old classics such as All along the Watchtower, this voice means that it was a very bluesy affair which suited the rocky swing of the night with Knopfler opening with an hour long set and then continuing to play guitar for half a dozen of Dylan's songs. 
As well as his Never Ending Tour continuing he has also had his own show of his painting at the Gagosian Gallery earlier this year. In all a Great gig with a fantastic evergreen Like a Rolling Stone to end. It proves that he still has a lot to contribute to music.
