1 INTRODUCTION

What a year this was! Again! A new album recorded and released, a near fatal illness, playing for the

Pope, receiving the JFK Award, touring continues in the same frantic pace as before. Dylan performs a

total of 95 dates in 1997, including the Beverly Hills, Bologna and San Jose gigs. Practically all these

performances are highly praised by both fans and critics and this despite a life-threatening illness, the

recording and promotion of a major new album and other distractions, an absolutely astounding

achievement.

3 CALENDAR

January Dylan records the Time Out Of Mind album during eleven days in Criteria Studios in

Miami, Florida. He once again chooses to work with Daniel Lanois, the producer of

Oh Mercy. For the first time during the Never-Ending Tour members of the touring

band are involved. A number of other established session musicians are also used.

The recording sessions are later commented upon by Daniel Lanois, Duke Robillard

in various interviews and a number of songs not appearing on the released record are

mentioned: Girl From The Red River Shore, Mississippi.

February 9 The eleventh year of the Never-Ending Tour kicks off with eleven dates in Japan. The

touring band remains the same.

March 20 Tony Garnier joins The Band for three songs at stand-up bass at their show in

Carnegie Hall, New York City.

March 31 A Spring tour in Canada and the US East Coast starts in St. Johns, Newfoundland,

Canada. After more than five years and 692 shows, John Jackson is replaced by Larry

Campbell a session player from New York City.

April 2 A ferry carrying the tour equipment is iced in on its way to Nova Scotia from Port aux

Basques. As a consequence the shows planned for April 3 and 4 are rescheduled

forcing Dylan to play no less than seven nights in a row.

April 5 Allen Ginsberg dies at the age of 70 of a heart attack in his Lower East Side apartment

in New York City. The same night Dylan dedicates Desolation Row to Allen Ginsberg

at the show in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada.

April 7 All Along The Watchtower is performed in concert for the 1000th

time at the show in

Fredericton.

May 3 The second tour of the year ends with a show in Huntsville, Alabama. The shows so

far have been remarkably similar to the 1996 shows, even with the new guitarist Larry

Campbell.

May 22 Dylan and the touring band without David Kemper perform three songs at a Simon

Wiesenthal Center benefit dinner in the International Room in the Beverly Hilton

Hotel in Los Angeles. The Ray Pennington/Ray Marcum song Stone Walls And Steel

Bars is performed for the first time.

May 24 Dylan spends his 56th birthday in his home in Malibu, Los Angeles.

May 25 Bob Dylan is admitted to hospital in Los Angeles with chest pain, initially reported as

a heart attack but later diagnosed as ”histoplasmosis”, an infection of the sac

surrounding the heart. The European summer tour, starting in the UK with double bill

shows with Van Morrison is cancelled.

June 2 Dylan is released from the hospital. Columbia records issues the following press

release:

”Bob Dylan was released from the hospital this weekend where he had been

undergoing medical tests and subsequent treatment for pericarditis brought on by

histoplasmosis. He was admitted on May 25. Doctors are continuing to treat him and

are confident that Mr. Dylan will make a full recovery in four to six weeks.

When asked about his plans for his recovery period, Mr. Dylan said ”I Don’t know

what I’m going to do. I’m just glad to be feeling better. I really thought I’d be seeing

Elvis soon”.

While it is not known exactly how Mr. Dylan contracted histoplasmosis, the fungal

condition which resulted in his illness, doctors believe that the severity of his

condition was due to the length of time between the onset of symptoms and the

eventual diagnosis.

Mr. Dylan was forced to cancel a European tour that was to begin June 1 in Cork,

Ireland. He plans to fulfill his U.S. concert schedule, and has recently completed work

on a new album that will be released later this year.

June 2 THE BEST OF DYLAN is released.

June 12 Rolling Stones magazine features an interview with Jakob Dylan in which he for the

first time talks about his father and his upbringing. Jakob also comments his fathers

recent illness and the fact the he was on tour in Europe at the time and decided to

continue the tour after having been assured that his fathers condition was not critical.

August 3 After resting all summer in his home in Malibu Dylan starts his US summer tour in

Lincoln, New Hampshire. The show features two songs that have not been played

since 1974, Tough Mama and 1962, Cocaine Blues. Dylan looks and sounds tired and

even sits down between songs. The shows during this tour are between 90 and 100

minutes, almost 20 minutes shorter than during the Spring tour.

August 19 Release of THE SONGS OF JIMMIE RODGERS - A TRIBUTE containing My Blue Eyed

Jane recorded in Memphis in May 1994. The record is the first release on the new

Dylan label Egyptian Records. The liner notes contains a superb essay, one of his very

best prose pieces ever.

August In an interview with Edna Gundersen from USA Today Dylan Talks about his recent

illness. ”I was off my feet for six weeks”. ”I’m still taking medication three times a

day”. ”I did get the doctors OK to do this tour”.

August 31 The 22 date US Summer Tour concludes with a show at the Spirit Fest in Kansas

City.

September A reissue of Biograph contains alternate versions of three songs: I’ll Be Your Baby

Tonight with 5 extra seconds at the end, the Manchester 1966 version of I Don’t

Believe You instead of the Belfast version on the original issue and a different version

of Mixed-Up Confusion. The release is recalled but up to a 1000 copies are thought to

have been sold.

September 27 Dylan performs at the World Eucharistic Congress in Bologna arranged by the

Vatican and with the Pope John Paul present. The event is broadcast by the Italian

state television channel RAI. Dylan with band performs three songs Knockin’ On

Heaven’s Door, A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall and Forever Young. After the second

song Dylan went up to the Pope, they shook hands and talked for about a minute. The

Pope then gave a speech. In an earlier speech the Pope quoted Blowin’ In The Wind,

which he also had requested that Dylan would sing.

September 30 Release of TIME OUT OF MIND.

October 1 Dylan stays on in Europe and gives a four date mini tour of Southern UK. Love Sick

is the only song from the new album that is performed. The tour is done to make up

for dates canceled earlier due to illness.

October 4 Dylan gives an extensive joint interview to a number of journalists from France,

Germany, Italy, Norway, Spain, and Sweden in the Metropole Hotel in London.

October 16 Dylan receives the Dorothy and Lillian Gish Prize at the Lotus Club in New York.

The prize is presented by Richard Avendon. Dylan does not perform at this occasion.

Dylan expresses regret that he never had the chance to appear in a movie with Lillian

Gish.

October 20 Rehearsals for next tour starts in the New Daisy Theatre in Memphis.

October 24 The fall tour of the US starts in Starkville, Mississippi. Three new songs from Time

Out Of Mind are played: Cold Irons Bound (with Bucky Baxter on organ), Can’t Wait

and ’Til I Fell In Love With You. The soundcheck includes a full length version of

Highlands.

October Interview with Daniel Lanois in Irish Times in which he recalls that ”at the last

second, without warning and as the record button is pressed, Dylan will change the

key and the time signature. The musicians will just look at themselves and dribble in

and often Bob will say ”That’s it”. That happened in at least half the tracks on this

album. Not Dark Yet had a radically different feel in the demo we did, which I loved

and still miss”.

October Two videos from the new album is shot, Love Sick and Not Dark Yet.

November 5 The Times in England prints another exclusive interview with UK journalist Alan

Jackson also from the Metropole Hotel in London in October.

November 14 The fall tour ends with ”private show” at the San José Arena sponsored by Applied

Here’s a song about — me! (before All Along The Watchtower).

Wallingford 8/18:

We have Rick Danko’s here from The Band. He just got himself out of <mumble, mumble>. I think he’s

looking better than ever really. This is a song we recorded a long while back.. (before This Wheel’s On

Fire).

Virginia Beach 8/22:

Sure is a nice night tonight. Thanks for coming on out. I know that … I know you have plenty of other

things to do. Anyway on the steel guitar, give him a big hand, he’s the former mayor, Bucky Baxter. He

threatened to quit me last week to get a real job, but I talked him into staying. On bass guitar tonight

Tony Garnier. (from the band credits before Tough Mama).

Vienna 8/23:

I want to introduce the gentleman on my right playing the guitar, Larry Campbell. Playing on the

drums tonight, keeping the beat together is David Kemper. Over on steel guitar is Bucky Baxter. His

daughter is here tonight. We want to say hello to his daughter wherever she is. Can’t remember her

name but I know she’s out there somewhere. There she is! Right there!! She’s gonna jump on stage you

know, too. She’s gonna jump on stage and throw her arms around us! On bass guitar tonight Tony

Garnier. I want to thank Ani DiFranco for playing earlier tonight. She’s fantastic! We all know she is.

And BR5-49 who we heard right here, who´s gonna be around a loooong time! (before Leopard-Skin
