Is it just me or does KOG seem to be getting played more often now than YTC?

I'm not fond of the song KOG.  Fond of the guitar solo - just not the song!

A nice review - for MK!         http://www.torontosun.com/2012/11/15/dy ... s-than-hit

TORONTO - Toronto is crawling with master singer-songwriters.

And, like most folks, some have clearly aged better than others.

Wednesday night at the Air Canada Centre saw the double bill of folk-rock legend Bob Dylan and former Dire Straits frontman Mark Knopfler, which given their impressive combined back catalogue surprisingly only drew 8,000 fans, while across town Canadian folkie Gordon Lightfoot began his usual fall four-night stand at Massey Hall.

Still to come, more Canadian folk-rock gold in the form of Neil Young and his sometime band Crazy Horse on Monday night at the ACC.

But back to the matter at hand as in the one and only Dylan, 71.

Very nice! It seems that it's only we hard core fans that notice any deterioration of Mark's guitar-playing skills since the old days of Alchemy. Most reviewers like this who aren't too familiar with him comment on how "nimble" his fingers are and how his guitar playing is just as good as it's ever been! Maybe we should cut the guy some slack!

A bit like the guy who recorded Charlie parker in clubs - just the solos, not the rest, irrespective of how good they were.

That YouTube guy is just sooo right!

Great version.

And everybody now knows plinkieplonkie Cox,, his name is on the back of the seat

Jim has his name on his seat, Mark has his on his guitar and Guy has his on his teapot!

Not connected with the Toronto gig, but I found this interesting after having read quite a few bad Dylan reviews lately:

An interesting viewpoint. Thanks, Val. And true blue Mark stands by Bob's side to support him as best he can. What a friend indeed!
