Bob Dylan tunes.......

Any Dylan fans about? If so what's your favourite Dylan tune?

Id go for 'It's Alright Ma' closely followed by 'The Hurricane' and 'Don't Think Twice (It's Alright)'

 

Mr Tambourine Man the lyrics are amazing.
I'm a massive Dylan fan also love 'All along the Watchtower' and Hendrix's version of it.

 

Shelter from the storm for me.....quality.
Did you see the documentary on him the other day? Really interesting stuff.

 

Man in the long black coat, Queen jane approx,Simple twist of fate and about 922 other ones!!

 

Manchester Free Trade Hall version of Like A Rolling Stone

The passion in his performance just makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

Imagine paying to see Dylan in the mid 60s when he sounds that good and looks that cool and his suit is that sharp and then booing him. Wnakers.

 

You mean the 'No Direction Home' one? If so yeah, was cracking stuff. Loved the wya he justp layed through the booing!

 

Went to see Dylan at MEN Arena the other week. Quality

Best Tunes: Blind Willie McTell, Idiot Wind, Subterranean Homesick Blues

Too many classics to name though

 

Yeah great tune, Dylan's lyrics are truly mind blowing stuff. It makes you wonder why anyone else bothers trying!

 

hard rain and rolling stone.

 

Yeah that's the one. The irate geordies did make me giggle.

 

Like A Rolling Stone.......

The Hurricane, and Positively 4th Street are amazing songs. The lyrics in The Hurricane, to me, are something to behold, especially since watching the film for the first time. Great film, even better song IMO.

 

RE: Manchester Free Trade Hall version of Like A Rolling Stone

hehe yeah idiots. I have to say if I was there at the time I wouldnt have booed (hell no!) but I would have been among those who would have preferred his acoustic stuff. I love the stuff he did with 'The Band' though. I'd have loved to have seen him playing in the cafe's of Greenwich Village though, that seemed like a really good place to be in the 60's.

 

Jammy git! I tried to get tickets but they were all gone and I couldnt afford the silly prices on e-bay.

 

RE: Like A Rolling Stone.......

Yeah, the lyrics are a work of art. I usually end up sitting there and shaking my head in disbelief when I listen to it, sublime stuff.

 

£90 off ebay for 2 tickets. That was for seats at the back. Ones near the stage were going for £150 each!!!

 

Is it like being at Oakwell? Shaking your head in disbelief...

 

"Blowin' In The Wind" of course

Quite possibly the best anti-war song ever written.

Some of my other favourites are "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right", "Like A Rolling Stone" and "Knockin' On Heaven's Door".

 

The sheer poetry of the words in 'Mr Tambourine Man' takes yer breath away.
Got the new CD based on the film.

 

Not really.Two verses deal specifically about segregation.
