Another from the “Righteous To Me” box. This one has some of Dylan’s vocals
slightly overcooked, but it gets warmer as the set progresses. A very warm
instrumental mix and great setlist makes this one a welcome addition.
Thanks Matt!!

Notes from a fan in the audience:

Suddenly at the start of The Times They Are A-Changin’ there’s a girl
standing on stage. Blond, dressed in black, wearing a hat like it could
have been a souvenir of the Rolling Thunder Revue. She wants to sing
with Dylan. The bodyguard wants to take her away, but Dylan says it’s OK.
They sing the first verse together. She sings great!
Then Dylan steps back to play some guitar, probably expected her to leave,
but she stays on stage. Dylan shows her his guitar as if he wants to say:
“Maybe you wanna take this over as well?” Then the bodyguard again comes
to take her away, but Dylan again says it’s OK. They sing the whole
song together (and it sounds very good!) although Liz Souissi
from Bern, Switzerland, is shaking all over, nervous as she is.
All the time there are big cheers and lots of applause from the crowd.
When the song is over, she starts to walk off stage, but then returns,
giving Bob a big hug and kiss. This was front-page news in
the local newspaper: “A Kiss for Swiss Liz”. Her comments: “This is what
I always dreamed of. I almost didn’t dare, but still I took a chance on it.
Of course I expected to be taken away immediately. To me this is
the most beautiful thing I ever experienced.” And it was beautiful
for many people in the crowd. Bob even smiled when all this happened.

From the original uploader:
I got this version from bootblogger. Very likely, it is sourced from an upload of lurid_uk in 2008. Track lengths match and it
also has the interview lurid had added. Flac file size differs by around 5 mb, though. Not sure if lurid had added some scans,
too (He didn’t mention in his text, though). So, maybe flacs have been changed a bit.

Anyway, I grabbed lurid’s info from the bot:

“Street Hassle” European Tour 1978

10 August: Eindhoven
11 August: Leiden
12 August: Amsterdam (Groningen?)
13 August: Bilzen Jazz Rock Festival
?? August: Cologne (?)

The tour to promote “Street Hassle” started in San Francisco in March 1978 and then rolled across North America with Lou reputedly
drunk and stoned for much of it. There was supposed to be a follow-on European tour but this (mostly) fell through for reasons not
known to me: the end result was a 4 or 5 date visit to Holland and Belgium in August. (It’s never been absolutely clear whether or not
there was also a show in Cologne – I suspect not). Lou was initially scheduled to headline an open-air festival at Charlton Athletic’s
football stadium in London on July 22nd, but that festival was cancelled. An audience recording dated “Amsterdam 12 August 1978”
exists, but there is also a Dutch press ad for a show in Groningen on 12 August.

The tail end of the “Take No Prisoners” tour: same band, similar set list, but no jokes from Lou. But this is a great version of “Waiting
For My Man” – long and bluesy. Also nice versions of “Coney Island Baby” and “Street Hassle” – there’s a lot of passion in Lou’s vocals.
(As compared to “Walk On The Wild Side”, where it sounds as if each pained word is being forcibly squeezed out of his mouth….)

The Raven captured a reasonable quality mono recording of this show. It’s a little bit “boomy” but still very listenable. There’s also a bit
of damage to the master tape in a few places but nothing drastic.

track 11 is lifted from the vinyl bootleg LP “Leave Lou Reed Alone”
