Bob Dylan Covers Van Morrison Classic In Spain

by Paul Cashmere on June 19, 2023

in News

Bob Dylan made a rare alteration to his Rough and Rowdy Ways setlist in Spain last week when the Johnny Mercer cover of ‘That Old Black Magic’ was replaced with a Van Morrison cover ‘Into The Mystic’.

Dylan and Morrison both appeared on The Band’s The Last Waltz concert of 1976 but not together.

They were together in 1989 in Athens for this performance of Morrison’s ‘Crazy Love’ and ‘And It Stoned Me’.

There is also footage of Morrison, Dylan and Carlos Santana performing Dylan’s ‘It’s All Over Now Baby Blue’ in 1984 in Ireland.

Dylan and Morrison have crossed paths numerous times over the years but have never toured together or appeared on each others albums.
