Album Notes & Community Reviews

Infamous for its hostile audience reaction, this historic 1966 Manchester Free Trade Hall concert (erroneously labeled Royal Albert Hall on bootlegs for decades) captures the very moment Bob Dylan defiantly broke from the folk establishment. The first half features masterful acoustic storytelling, before the Hawks (later The Band) join him for a blistering, massively amplified electric set that permanently altered rock history. The legendary cry of 'Judas!' from the crowd punctuates a performance crackling with rebellious energy.
