   in 1967 for the album John Wesley Harding). However, Ed Ricardo's 1997 comment   
   that "Bob Dylan plays    
   Germany, but never Russia or Lithuania" was superseded in 2008, when Dylan   
   played Vilnius, Lithuania on June 5th and St. Petersburg, Russia on June 8th.

   Think I "overspoke" on that one.  The Bauls were on the cover of John Wesley   
   Harding, but did not play on the album itself.  It has been reported that the   
   Bauls did play with Dylan during their time at Woodstock in 1967-68,  but I   
   don't believe any such    
   tape has ever circulated.   
      
   "Ginsberg encountered the Bauls in Bengal and brought   
   them to the attention of Grossman. Al became their manager and brought them to   
   the States where they played Frisco, LA and Santa Cruz. They were in Bearsville   
   where Garth Hudson arranged for them to make the album The Bengali Bauls at Big   
   Pink (Buddah BD5050).   
      
   "They met and played with Dylan and Purna has a tape of the session. He later   
   said: "There is a great similarity between our music and his. There is a   
   connection between Baul music and Western folk music  because the subjects are    
   nature, love, human bodies, sorrow, which in fact are subjects common to all   
   people everywhere."
