This clip (and that Feelgood's thing you posted on the other thread) has made my day.

I love his passion here, he's proper raging, howling, it's beautiful stuff.

[grumpyhack]

One of my favourites songs is about rather than by Dylan. It's Diamonds and Rust by Joan Baez in which she talks about their relationship in bittersweet terms (it was written after their breakup).

Great lines:

Well you burst on the scene

Already a legend

The unwashed phenomenon

The original vagabond

[The Nal]

His Bobness received The Presidential Medal of Freedom yesterday from Obama.

He looks delighted doesn't he?!

New Dylan album en route. Review here.

[The Nal]

Fantastic (complete) Bob interview from Rolling Stone last September. Well worth a read.

[The Nal]

Never seen this before. Isis live from around the time it was released. Wow!

Also, bizarrely, his next Bootleg series focuses on Self Portrait. An album he acknowledged as being purposely shit.

A total enigma.

Unreleased song - Pretty Saro - been in Columbia's vaults for 43 years since it was disregarded for Self Portrait.

[The Nal]

Seems appropriate for this thread too.

This is sweet, sweet revenge Nal.

Revenge for what? What have I done to deserve this aural battering?!

Thats really awful isn't it? Christ.

[The Nal]

You know what for if you delve into your memory.

Nope nothing. Link?

[The Nal]

All your pictures advocating a certain someone for the Sunday legend slot this year. In the current absence of TedDansonsWig from these boards, I can only aim my ire at you.

ah!

That was serious!!

Well, nearly. Point taken though!

[The Nal]

Yeah New Morning (1970) is pretty good. Only really got into it in the last year or so. George Harrison covered If Not For You on Allo Things Must Pass but I prefer His Bobess' version.

Cheers mate. Like the sound of them on first listen. There's a record fair near me bank holiday weekend (ours not yours or I'd have missed it) so will keep an eye out. If not, ebay it is.

You've brightened my day. I work in the UK market so get UK bank holidays. Didn't know there was one on the 26th! Delighted! May go for a record shop that day myself.

[The Nal]

Do you get both you jammy get? Or do you have to work Irish ones if they're not the same. If so, you lose out then don't you? If memory serves, you lazy Irish get more bank holidays than us.

Yeah we get one more. I don't get both no but I get an extra days holiday.

[The Nal]

Another Self Portrait now streaming.

Some of the cuts here are miles better than the originals! Miles better.

The demo of When I Paint My Masterpiece! Wow.

Stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues again. :- C,Am,C,Am,C,Am,F,G,, C,Am,C,Am,C,Am,F,C,, Em,Em,Em,Em,C,G,Am,C,F, CC,

Great song. Anyone want to form a Dylan tribute act? I usually play drums but do rhythm geetar too

[womadman]

Back on topic (don't want to pollute a Dylan thread with more Ferry) can you recommend any non-obvious Dylan for vinyl.

I have all his 60s albums on either CD or vinyl, but am wary of shelling out for anything later due to reputation of some dodgy stuff. I picked up Desire dirt cheap and it's made me realise there must be more great stuff I haven't heard.

I also have Blood on The Tracks so basically everything from debut to Nashville Skyline (apart from JWH but I know I need to get that) plus Desire and BOTT.

Modern Times is essential

[sifi]

I love Planet Waves.

I'm still here Scruff. Just waiting for the right opportunity to drop that Cliff plays basketball photo back on you....

[Ted Dansons Wig]

And while we're at it. Can I just put forward Before The flood as the greatest live album of all time
