Deep in the Never Ending Tour, and critically, five months before Time Out of Mind would drop — the album that won Album of the Year at the Grammys and revived Dylan’s commercial relevance. At the RACC on the SUNY Albany campus, Dylan opened with “Down in the Flood” and closed the encore with “Rainy Day Women #12 & 35.” Fan reviews describe him in strong voice, with highlights on “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll” and a Grateful Dead cover, “Friend of the Devil,” in the acoustic set.
