    At the very beginning, Bradley said since he had been at
    "Sixty Minutes," that
    Bob Dylan was the one interview that he had longed to get.

    So the questions that he finally got to ask are the ones that he
    has been
    holding inside of him for decades. You could sense that there was
    a sense of
    awe and great care not to tread anywhere controversial.

    It's really too bad because I have seen Bradley do fine work in
    the past. He
    just was the wrong guy for this particular subject.

    I totally disagree. I think he did a fine job. I was
    particularly impressed at how comfortable he was with Bob which I
    think made Bob more comfortable. The questions/answers included
    in the footage we saw were pretty much based on the book,
    Chronicles. It seems pretty clear that the release/promotion of
    Chronicles was the impetus for this interview. I think Ed Bradley

    did a very good job.

    What do you think of the chances of the entire interview being
    released on DVD sometimes in the near future? Does CBS do that
    sort of thing?


    As far as I know this never happened.
