Talk about a meeting of the minds; here's Bob Dylan backstage with Muhammed Ali in 1975 at Madison Square Garden. Ali presented Dylan with a gift — a huge boxing glove.This meeting took place during the Night of the Hurricane Benefit concert. The concert was to benefit wrongfully imprisoned boxer Rubin “Hurricane” Carter - who Dylan wrote about in his song, Hurricane.
Ali went on stage after Joni Mitchell's set. The crowd first went crazy. Things started out good when Ali interviewed Carter over the phone from prison. Ali then started a long rambling diatribe that lost everyone and eventually got booed.
