Longtime Saturday Night Live bandleader and initial lead guitar player in Dylan's Never Ending Tour G. Thus, while the Disk 1 rehearsals and extras may not be as entertaining as the rest of the set, these items had to be included for the sake of completeness. Sony managed to obtain the rights to the HD-footage that was broadcast at Japanese national TV at the time.

I’ve been a Dylan fan since the beginning, saw him in 1965, and 1966 when he did his electric tour and remained a devotee since then.

Finally, Disk 4 contains an overdubbed version of My Back Pages, the one in which Dylan's vocal was "improved".

Highlights of this event for me are Lou's incisive teleprompter take on Foot of Pride and Sinead's courage in actually bringing some protest to the celebration of my favorite finger-pointing song and dance man. I can kind of understand it on My Back Pages - he was sharing the stage with five other guitarists and they couldn't all show off - but it's more disappointing on Absolutely Sweet Marie. Brilliant piece of Rock/Pop History with so many Superstar Artistes coming together to pay tribute to a master craftsman of musical poetry.The 2DVD and Blu-ray versions of The 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration – Deluxe Edition include 40 minutes of previously unreleased material including behind-the-scenes rehearsal footage, interviews and more. October 1992, Madison Square Garden, New York and a star-studded line up joins Bob Dylan onstage for a show to celebrate 30 years since his first Columbia Recordings album. While three of the disk 2 pre-broadcast performances are of inferior technical quality, they are the best that could be obtained and will have to do until the master tapes are made available.
