Record-breaking Emmy history is pretty reliable evidence that this show is a rare species and one that, I hope, will thrive for a long, long time.

It didn't take much imagination...
...waltz-time "Lonesome Death of Hattie Caroll." The true audience-pleaser, though, was a wonderful acoustic rendition of "Tangled Up In Blue," the most well-known song from his arguably best album, 1974's Blood On The Tracks. Embellished by the mandolin-playing of Bucky Baxter (who manned the pedal steel guitar most of the night), this favorite struck a particularly responsive chord...
