11:17 AM GMT 08/02/2010
Bob Dylan and Joan Baez will both play Washington later this week almost 50 years after they first sang during the Martin Luther King-led Jobs and Freedom March in 1963.
In Performance at the White House: A Celebration of Music from the Civil Rights Movement, is set to take place on Wednesday (February 10) and will see the pair join a bill that already includes Smokey Robinson and John Mellencamp.
Reports that Dylan and Baez will perform together currently remain unconfirmed. The concert will be streamed live via whitehouse.gov.
Of course, the former lovers/musical partners have performed together on several occasions over the years. Here are three of their finest moments:
When The Ship Comes In
March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom - August 28, 1963.
With God On Our Side
Newport Folk Festival, 1964
Blowin' In The Wind
The Rolling Thunder Revue, 1975

I honestly don't believe it will happen. But every time I honestly don't believe something will happen with Uncle Bobby, it happens!

Sorry, but Dylan's performance was pretty horrible. The guy's voice, never much to begin with, is totally shot. Meanwhile Smokey Robinson, who's just as old as ole Bob, still retains all of his musical gifts.
That piano on "The Times..." was absolutely unnecessary. Seems like it was played to sweeten things up. Sweeten up "The Times They Are A'Changin'"?
