Bob Dylan with Willie Nelson for the Outlaw Music Festival tour

Bob Dylan sings Van Morrison

Bob Dylan And Van Morrison they had the opportunity to cross paths numerous times during their infinite career. They performed each other’s songs live and performed together on several occasions, such as, for example, on the co-headlining tour in 1988. Dylan played his versions of the classics of Van Morrison many times, just a couple of years ago he played “Into The Mystic” in concert in Alicante, Spain. Last Thursday it was repeated during a live show in Morrison’s hometown, Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland.
