Bob Dylan chose a fine time to return to the Late Show stage.
The legendary singer-songwriter was the musical guest for the penultimate episode of David Letterman‘s long-running talk show. Dylan last graced the stage of Letterman’s iconic program back in 1993, having first appeared on NBC’s Letterman-hosted Late Night in 1984.
Letterman introduced his luminary guest as “the greatest songwriter of modern times” before Dylan delivered an intimate performance of “The Night We Called It a Day,” lifted from his latest album Shadows in the Night.
