Dylan Delivers Nod to Belfast's Own with Deep-Cut Van Morrison Cover

In a masterful act of artistic homage, Bob Dylan paid tribute to Belfast's musical heritage by unearthing a deep cut from Van Morrison's catalog during his recent performance in the city. Foregoing Morrison's well-trodden classics, Dylan instead selected a nuanced track from the singer's spiritually rich later period, a choice that resonated as a knowing nod from one poetic soul to another.His rendition was a transformative act, stripping the song of its original soulful delivery and rebuilding it with his signature weathered rasp, piano, and harmonica. The performance reframed the piece as a raw folk-blues confession, demonstrating that true reverence lies not in replication, but in reinterpretation.The obscure selection immediately ignited fervent discussion among fans, sending them digging through Morrison's post-millennium work and granting a forgotten song a powerful second act. In one deliberate setlist choice, Dylan reaffirmed his role as a master curator, illuminating the profound connections that lie hidden in the deep recesses of a musical genius's work.
