Thanks for the link, Jeremy.

You know, I’ve watched that video 100 times now and I still can’t tell if Bob Dylan is just hearing this song for the first time and just playing along, or what. In the end, it doesn’t really matter, though because I think the whole thing works.

I just love Van Morrison.

I tried to Google the performance, but I didn’t find any info.

This from Wikipedia:
BBC2 filmed a career overview entitled One Irish Rover for the series Arena which was shown in March, 1991. The film opened with Van Morrison and Bob Dylan singing a duet on the Hill of the Muses above Athens, Greece. Dylan and Morrison performed duets on “Crazy Love” “Foreign Window” and “One Irish Rover”. The Independent described “the Irish singer flanked by Bob Dylan and the Acropolis: all three of them legendary, all looking their age, and all a waste of time talking to with a microphone in your hand.”
