"I will always keep up with Bob Dylan. I will always be concerned and will always keep up with him because he's a good man. He's a good man." Great to read that. Wonderful interview. Thank you.
These are always great. A couple of points, I went to just about all the Warfield shows and remember them well. I remember the "booing" as occasional boos, quite a few catcalls (Come on, Bob, play the good stuff!) and a LOT of people who wanted to hear the show booing the catcallers or otherwise telling them to shut up which led to a lot of noise. I had bought advance tickets for the first 3 shows and then after that, I'd show up and scalpers would be trying to sell tickets for fairly outrageous prices and I'd wait for Regina to start talking and the price would drop to $5 and I'd buy one and go in. Also, the scene in front was crazy because after the first few shows, the sidewalks were jammed with Jews for Jesus, Moonies, and every other kind of religious missionary which drove away those who were not into the religious aspect of the shows.
I have a question. I saw a film clip last night of Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, with extra vocals by four beautiful women who I thought were the McCrary sisters making a concert movie in Australia in the '80s. The clip was presented as exclusive and previously "unseen" by the Bob Dylan Center in Tulsa OK.
Based on your interview, it seems like Regina would have been there, but what about the other three sisters? There is not one word on the internet to help me confirm that the performance clip that I saw was, in fact, the McCrary sisters. Can you confirm or dispel my observation? Did the McCrary Sisters tour with TP and BD in Australia in the 80s?! Thank you.
Not the McCrary sisters in that. Not even Regina. That later group of singers during the Petty tours was known as the "Queens of Rhythm" but it was a rotating group of people.
Oh my gosh. You've done some really interviews here Ray, but this is the best. I was cacklin' out loud and loving every story. (Also love it that she used the word bodaciously)
Really super stuff. Also thanks for the links to her current/recent music - I'm buying some of that.

So nice to hear. He is a good man. Beyond his talent he has a good heart.
