Here's Bob in the Nashville Skyline era with (a too-cool-for-school) Johnny Cash doing One Too Many Mornings:


Doing Hava Nagila with Peter Himmelman and Harry Dean Stanton for a Chabad Lubavitch telethon in the '80s:


Here's Bob doing Jokerman on Letterman with L.A. punks The Plugz backing him:


Singing and speaking to the Pope in 1997 (fast forward to about the six minute mark to see Bob ascend the stairs to a waiting Pope, remove his cowboy hat, and have a few words):


Starring in a Cadillac Escalade commercial, for some reason. Listening to my favorite Smog song, for some reason:


Co-starring in a Victoria's Secret commercial:


On the Rolling Thunder Revue tour in 1976, from an NBC TV special. Doing a kind of insane Maggie's Farm. And yeah, that's Mick Ronson on guitar:
