Singer-songwriter Bob Dylan's enigmatic career has captivated audiences for decades. ... I remember a show in Portland in 1993 where Dylan was far less than great, erratic even.

On Oct. 16, 1992, many of rock music’s biggest names gathered at Madison Square Garden in New York for a 30 th anniversary concert salute to the greatest songwriter of the rock era, Bob Dylan.
