“He made me the "Rolling Thunder Revue" bandleader because he liked the job I had done on the Desire album. His
lyrical eloquence was unique and compelling like no other singer. I am
very happy with how Desire turned out. I knew the sound was magical from the very first notes we played that night. Since 1978, Bob asked me to help straighten his band out once during the Slow Train tour, but that never happened. He also has visited my home. During the time of our collaboration, we were very close. He remains one of the greatest
creative forces in music to this day.”
