Hi guys, I’m wondering if you can help me…
I’m looking for a guy called Ian (I think) who is a self-confessed Bob Dylan (and Bruce Springsteen) aficionado. He stood next to me during the Dylan set at the Hop Farm Festival in the UK on the 4th July 2010. I need to get in touch with him because due to some backstage links I had, I have a piece of exclusive Dylan memorabilia I’d like to give him (sorry folks, Dylan just doesn’t do it for me so I have no use for this thing).
Facts I know about Ian…
His name may not be Ian
He was with an American friend and I’m pretty sure his name was Henry Singer and he was 52 years old
Ian works in the car industry as some kind of geeky analyst, predicting car model production worldwide
He has a 15-year old daughter
He was only at the festival on the Saturday and had arrived by train with his friend
He is a 50 years old ex punk rocker
He has mid length dark curly hair and a salt and pepper beard
He lives in North London or just north of London somewhere
He’s a very nice fella!
If anyone knows him could you please pass this message to him and ask him to ring me, Chris on 07971 720 736. I won’t be monitoring any answers on this forum.
Many thanks,
Chris

As early as 1962, the year my pioneering and travelling for the Canadian Bahá’í community began, Bob Dylan was reflecting on the theme of the rejected prophet. He wrote: “To preach of peace and brotherhood, / Oh, what might be the cost! / A man he did it long ago / And they hung him on a cross. / Long ago, far away; / These things don't happen / No more, nowadays.”(1) This allusion to Jesus in this 1962 reflection, in one of the first years of Dylan’s public fame, is followed by a rehearsal of various social evils that make the call for peace and brotherhood necessary as far as Dylan was concerned back then in the roaring sixties. Dylan refers to slavery, war, poverty and few would challenge the need to rid the world of such things--then or now. But like many good stories, this song ends with an unexpected twist with the words: “And to talk of peace and brotherhood, / Oh, what might be the cost! / A man he did it long ago / And they hung him on a cross. / Long ago, far away; / Things like that don't happen / No more, nowadays, do they?” This is, of course, a loaded rhetorical question. One would not think that addressing such noble themes would be dangerous. Dylan has already referred to the supreme example of a prophet/preacher who paid the ultimate price. What would prevent a latter day prophet from experiencing a similar fate? –Ron Price with thanks to (1)Bob Dylan, "Long Ago, Far Away"; recorded in 1962 but never released. This information, these ideas was/were found in Michael J. Gilmour, “They Refused Jesus Too: A Biblical Paradigm in the Writing of Bob Dylan,” Journal of Religion and Popular Culture, Volume 1, Spring 2002.
Few took serious interest in
this story: for the Return of
Jesus is very very complex!
You asked, Bob, “Things like
that don't happen no more..
nowadays, do they?” But the
answer is a resounding “yes!”

thin silver sound like razor wire caught by the moon among the shadows -
for me Planet Waves forms a trilogy with BOTT and Street Legal
(much as i love Desire and The Rolling Thunder Tour - that whole things feels like a separate project)
the warm - giving way to angular chills - the darkness of night - a mess of mixed up confusion and a new voice - all common elements to his main seventies output.
the sensitive playing of the band - even when they're playing dirty - is hardly commented on in reviews, probably because it all sounds so casual.
but then so do the basement tapes.
the lyrics are fragments from a cagey autobiography of sorts and make this the nearest to Chronicles that Dylan has yet put down on vinyl.
Going Going Gone is a scarifying first look at the valley below and the liner notes and crude cover point the way for a new street suss Bob - while being nostalgic at the same time - the black and white reminds me of the famous Pocket editions of the Beat Poets especially Ginsberg.
And the songs! Forever Young is justly famous - as are Wedding Song and Dirge, twisted ballads with plenty of blood in their tracks.
But even the smaller pleasures - the humour of 'I swear you could make me sing' or the crack in his voice on Hazel 'dirty blonde hair - i wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you, anywhere...'
Far more focused and alive than New Morning, this is great stuff and one of my most often listened to Bob albums.

Ther was a good site, with a lot of background info on the Bob Dylan songs (http://www.geocities.com/temptations_page/DylGuide.html#intro) Seems like this site hasn't been updated for some time :(
I'm looking to start a simmilar site my self. Yep, yet another B D site.
Altought there is a lot of interesting info on http://expectingrain.com/ ... what I will try to accomplish, is to build a simple straight-forward site, just with "Song titles" and info (names, backgrounds, places, annotations, ..) on this song. (kind like the http://www.geocities.com/temptations_page/DylGuide.html#intro site)
I you have background info on a album, or a song, please share it with me.

I was just a few years behind the times when Dylan exploded on the folk scene. I'm so totally absorbed in all phases of his music now, but this album hits particularly hard in the gut. It is every bit as relevant today as 40+ years ago!! "Masters of War" and "With God on our Side" go to my very core as I think about our politics of the last decade. But then, most all of them have a critical message for today. Will we ever really change? We have our first chance for a real change and I hope we don't blow it! I'm almost afraid to wish folks a Happy New Year.

I agree that Obama has made a disturbing move to the center. Call me naive, but those AM briefings he gets from the CIA have got to be unsettling, since he gets detailed reports on Al Quaeda plots to destroy us.
I like the fact that his budget is planning for a better educated America...poor and rich alike. And I also like the other goals: getting off oil, and retraining America for jobs that support the new energy infrastructure.
I hope he's being truthful when he says he wants to use troops in Afghanistan to teach the Afghanis how to defend themselves. Someone is FINALLY realizing that we cannot afford to police the world (thank God). But Iraq...I agree that more troops is very bad.
As for the 60's? I'm so glad you released the 1966 concert in England. Was it at the Royal Albert or in Manchester? I hear different reports. I'm collecting as much of the live material as I can get my hands on and it's all fabulous, but that concert's in a class by itself. My favorite song of all time? Chimes of Freedom Flashing.

I am not saying that Dylan is a learned philosopher understanding counter culture better than PhDs of universities with insights that shake the foundations of powers on a global scale. If he isn't, then he receives his lyrics from a necrotic daemon that is a learned philosopher understanding counter culture better than PhDs of universities with insights that shake the foundations of powers on a global scale.

I have just begun looking for a copy of Dylan's 'Renaldo and Clara', without any success. I saw the original four hour film in an obscure cinema in London when I was fifteen years old, in 1976. I loved it, although doubtlessly missed a great deal that perhaps I would now appreciate more. Is anyone able to help me find a copy?

I have all of Dylan's music, and I have seen him in concert so many times I can't count them - including the MIDWEST - he likes the Lincoln Nebraska area, by the way. I passionately love all of his music (though I skipped the Born Again stuff0. To me, Street Legal is his best album - meaning it is the best from the best poet/musician in any era.

I was kind of upset with the 'all songs written by Bob Dylan' claim on this cd. Both Rollin' and Tumblin' and Someday Baby (aka Trouble No More) are usually credited to Muddy Waters. Sure Dylan changed the lyrics but the tunes and choruses are not his. I assume what he claims is technically 'legal' but I think he should give credit where credit is due.
