Cold Irons Bound
Like a controlled nuclear reaction, this performance is both incendiary and sublime. The static "one-shot" camera frame barely contains the energy. The tune percolates along and then explodes after the choruses. Watch it many times, as I have, to grasp its full majesty. Lyrics are provided by the YouTuber.
Hint 1: After several viewings, watch once focusing only on the drummer for a look at individual virtuosity in service of the whole.
Hint 2: Watch the guitarist on the right from 4:06 to 4:08. Cool descending transition passage.
Hint 3: Listen how Dylan enunciates "swallowed me whole". Whew.
Finally, this is a low-fi YouTube version. There is a much better version (and 4 other videos) when you buy the new release Modern Times; these vids are offered a bonus through iTunes.
