From Inside a Prune Judas! from Inside A Prune Hello and a warm welcome to our last issue of 2005. We are putting this issue together amidst a feast of Dylan material that is reaching staggering proportions. It is impossible to turn anywhere at the moment without running into the man so many of us have spent so much of our lives searching for recordings of and information about. To be honest, it is all a bit overwhelming. Just think, recent official releases include: Bob Dylan: Live at The Gaslight 1962 The Bootleg Series Vol. 7 No Direction Home broadcast and DVD The Live at Carnegie Hall bonus disc The Bob Dylan Scrapbook 1956-1966 Chronicles in paperback The BBC unearthing a good quality ‘Ballad of the Gliding Swan’ That’s without mentioning the bootleg release of the Dont Look Back outtakes. Then there has been the saturation coverage in newspapers and magazines and still Dylan books continue to come out and there are/have been the photographic exhibitions in Birmingham and Camden. Can you take any more? Much as I am enjoying it all, and without meaning to sound ungrateful, I do have some misgivings. The first I voiced last time around, the concen- tration on the pre-1967 story, but also – isn’t it all a bit easy? Finding rare Dylan is supposed to be hard! More seriously, on some days when faced with paper after paper full of Bob there is a harbinger of that dread day when he is no more. I am sorry to bring that up but it was a strong, creepy feeling I had some mornings, and I was wondering if I was alone in this or if any of you felt the same. Still, let’s all enjoy it for what it is, overwhelming though the amount of material may be. (So much so that the Blonde on Blonde outtakes on Bootleg Series 7 were hardly mentioned recently when I was with three Bobcat friends – there was so much else to discuss.) On top of everything, for me, is the unbelievably brilliant concert footage in No Direction Home; and not just the electric, oh the beauty of ‘Visions of Johanna’ and ‘Mr. Tambourine Man’ filmed live in ’66 (would it be over the top to suggest that the ‘to’ in the latter is alone worth the entire output of many a lesser artist. And then there is the ‘Judas’ moment and the ‘Like a Rolling Stone’ from Newcastle all through the film, and complete as one of the DVD special features; it’s almost enough to make you forget that the special features include the 1966 Liverpool ‘One Too Many Mornings’ too…all this and so much more. And let us not forget that He, that is Him, Himself arrives on these shores soon. The never ending Bob on his Never Ending Tour. Judas! Meanwhile here at Judas! central we had a magazine all planned to come out about ten days ago but then we thought we really had to acknowledge the Scorsese film and soundtrack. Many thanks to Nick Hawthorne for writing his review of the latter in incredibly short time, and to Stephen Scobie and Peter Stone Brown for breaking all records and sending in a review of the film the very day after its two-night TV stint ended (not that it will ever ‘end’ on our playbacks.) Thanks to all our other contributors too, of course. To Jim LaClair for answering the 1975 memory request so perfectly; to Mark Richardson for his offbeat memories from over 40 years ago; to Padráig for producing an article that somehow manages to do justice to its subject (high praise indeed); to John Hume for the cover and to Robert Forryan for giving me a big ticking off for a small aside in my last article! I am delighted to have got you writing again and happily share your views on Mr. Seeger that will I guess be particularly useful to our, I am pleased to report, growing percentage of younger readers. (As Stephen Scobie once pondered, how do they absorb Dylan’s history now, far less that of all those associated with him?) If I may be allowed a small defence, had I reported or Mr Gray said that ‘Seeger had previously had an axe at the event and wished that he had it in his hands to chop the microphone’ it would not have made a huge difference to the point of the side-story. Incidentally, as you will by now know he reiterates his wish to have cut the cable in No Direction Home, a film in which he comes across as intensely irritating (in his younger guise especially) by the way, at least to this writer. He has a similar kind of effect on me when I see or hear him as Bono does, notwithstanding all the admirable acts you detail and despite another fine story described in The Rose and The Briar. Maybe I just don’t like the people Dylan likes. I hope we are still friends though - after all we’re off to see Nuneaton Borough with John Stokes soon. (Now that will baffle our overseas readers, surely?) Thanks also to Guido Bieri and John Gibbens for excellent articles which came unso- licited one day – an editor’s dream! My own article was one of those that have been moved to a later issue as the need to cover some of the ongoing events seemed paramount. I include a short bridging piece to try and keep it in your minds. Looking to the future, I fully expect reviews and reactions to all the ongoing to be present in the next issue too, so at the moment it looks like our celebration of Desire’s 30 year ‘birthday’ will be in number 17, please contribute! For now, enjoy the banquet, the shows and just keep believing.

R. Stokes Judas! Broadswords and Sweet Liberty Dylan’s performances of ‘The Roving Blade’ by Pádraig Hanratty One of the most fascinating aspects of the Never-Ending Tour (NET) has been Dylan’s choices of cover songs over the years. Although the actual performances of the songs have ranged from the sublime to the perfunctory to the ridiculous, the songs themselves shed some light on the inner workings of Dylan’s performance art. Sometimes the songs tell us where Dylan has come from. Other times, they remind us who his contemporaries are. They can also indicate Dylan’s current concerns. And, of course, sometimes they tell us nothing more than that Dylan likes this song and thought it would be a blast to try and perform it live. Not all his performances of cover versions work. (Needless to say, not all his performances of original material work either.) However, when they do work, they can serve as startling reminders of why people spend so much time following and analysing Dylan’s constant touring. One cover version that has always worked is ‘The Roving Blade’. The song has been performed three times (so far) on the NET: Reims, 1992; Belfast, 1998; and Reno, 2000. Here are the song’s lyrics (though it should come as no surprise that Dylan hasn’t always stuck to the admittedly fluid text): 4 Judas!

  • Tell-Tale Signs - Edgar Allan Poe and Bob Dylan: Towards a Model of Intertextuality
    ATLANTIS. Journal of the Spanish Association of Anglo-American Studies. 31.2 (December 2009): 41–56 ISSN 0210-6124 Tell-Tale Signs - Edgar Allan Poe and Bob Dylan: Towards a Model of Intertextuality Christopher Rollason Metz, France [email protected] This article shows how the poetry and prose of Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) cast a long shadow over the work of America’s greatest living songwriter, Bob Dylan (1941-). The work of both artists straddles the dividing-line between ‘high’ and ‘mass’ culture by pertaining to both: read through Poe, Dylan’s work may be seen as a significant manifestation of American Gothic. It is further suggested, in the context of nineteenth- century and contemporary debates on alleged ‘plagiarism’, that the textual strategy of ‘embedded’ quotation, as employed by both Poe and Dylan, points up the need today for an open and inclusive model of intertextuality. Keywords: culture; Dylan; Gothic; intertextuality; Poe; quotation Tell-tale signs - Edgar Allan Poe y Bob Dylan: hacia un modelo de intertextualidad Este artículo explica cómo la poesía y la prosa de Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) proyectan una larga sombra sobre la obra del mayor cantautor vivo de Estados Unidos, Bob Dylan (1941-). Ambos artistas se ubican en una encrucijada entre la cultura ‘de elite’ y la ‘de masas’, puesto que la obra de cada uno se sitúa en ambos dominios a la vez: leída a través de Poe, la obra dylaniana aparece como una importante manifestación del gótico norteamericano. Se plantea igualmente la hipótesis de que, en el marco de los debates, tanto decimonónicos como contemporáneos, sobre el supuesto ‘plagio’, la estrategia textual, empleada tanto por Poe como por Dylan, de la cita ‘encajada’ señala la necesidad urgente de plantear un modelo abierto y global de la intertextualidad.

  • Bob Dylan Performs “It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding),” 1964–2009
    Volume 19, Number 4, December 2013 Copyright © 2013 Society for Music Theory A Foreign Sound to Your Ear: Bob Dylan Performs “It’s Alright, Ma (I’m Only Bleeding),” 1964–2009 * Steven Rings NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: http://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.13.19.4/mto.13.19.4.rings.php KEYWORDS: Bob Dylan, performance, analysis, genre, improvisation, voice, schema, code ABSTRACT: This article presents a “longitudinal” study of Bob Dylan’s performances of the song “It’s Alright, Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)” over a 45-year period, from 1964 until 2009. The song makes for a vivid case study in Dylanesque reinvention: over nearly 800 performances, Dylan has played it solo and with a band (acoustic and electric); in five different keys; in diverse meters and tempos; and in arrangements that index a dizzying array of genres (folk, blues, country, rockabilly, soul, arena rock, etc.). This is to say nothing of the countless performative inflections in each evening’s rendering, especially in Dylan’s singing, which varies widely as regards phrasing, rhythm, pitch, articulation, and timbre. How can music theorists engage analytically with such a moving target, and what insights into Dylan’s music and its meanings might such a study reveal? The present article proposes one set of answers to these questions. First, by deploying a range of analytical techniques—from spectrographic analysis to schema theory—it demonstrates that the analytical challenges raised by Dylan’s performances are not as insurmountable as they might at first appear, especially when approached with a strategic and flexible methodological pluralism.

  • Kansas History and Folksong
    KANSAS HISTORY AND FOLKSONG by Bill and Mary Koch America's musical heritage is a strange mixture, but from its songs, and especially its folksongs, we can relive our historical past. As our ter­ ritories developed and new states came into the union, songs were made and sung which purported to tell of life and conditions in the new state. Kansas was a crucial area a hundred years ago, and the whole nation's at­ tention was directed toward her and toward what might transpire on these prairies. The Civil War slowed down the westward movement, but only temporarily, for a new hope had already been fired in the hearts of people, especially those from the old northwest and from the eastern seaboard. Walt Whitman, America's great poet of democratic principles, real­ ized early in the 19th century the part that music would play in this west­ ward movement and the settlement of America's great heartland. He praised the west and foresaw what Frederick Jackson Turner, the eminent historian, was to say later about the west\vard movement-that the natural processes of settlement in succeeding new areas afforded the opportunity to slough off undesirable, non-democratic principles and institutions. Both Turner and Whitman were romanticists; that well-known phrase, "The American Dream," meaning the idea of the freedom of opportunity to all, is the theme of much of their literary output. Only a vast public domain and free land could spark this dream to a reality, so men would actually point their covered wagons westward with kids, dogs, hogs, and all,

  • Matrices of 'Love and Theft': Joan Baez Imitates Bob Dylan
    Twentieth-Century Music 18/2, 249–279 © The Author(s), 2021. Published by Cambridge University Press. This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi: 10.1017/S1478572221000013 Matrices of ‘Love and Theft’: Joan Baez Imitates Bob Dylan MIMI HADDON Abstract This article uses Joan Baez’s impersonations of Bob Dylan from the mid-1960s to the beginning of the twenty-first century as performances where multiple fields of complementary discourse con- verge. The article is organized in three parts. The first part addresses the musical details of Baez’s acts of mimicry and their uncanny ability to summon Dylan’s predecessors. The second con- siders mimicry in the context of identity, specifically race and asymmetrical power relations in the history of American popular music. The third and final section analyses her imitations in the context of gender and reproductive labour, focusing on the way various media have shaped her persona and her relationship to Dylan. The article engages critical theoretical work informed by psychoanalysis, post-colonial theory, and Marxist feminism. Introduction: ‘Two grand, Johnny’ Women are forced to work for capital through the individuals they ‘love’. Women’s love is in the end the confirmation of both men’s and their own negation as individ- uals. Nowadays, the only possible way of reproducing oneself or others, as individuals and not as commodities, is to dam this stream of capitalist ‘love’–a ‘love’ which masks the macabre face of exploitation – and transform relationships between men and women, destroying men’s mediatory role as the representatives of state and capital in relation to women.1 I want to start this article with two different scenes from two separate Bob Dylan films.

  • Freewheelin-On-Line Take Twenty Two
    Freewheelin-on-line Take Twenty Two Freewheelin’ 220 There can be no question: it is a cinematic masterpiece; a milestone in the history of moving images. I am talking about Peter Jackson’s ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy , and, despite the multiple endings to the final part of the trilogy - ‘The Return of the King’ - nothing is lost when you consider the totality of the project. I couldn’t thus resist from having that half-man, half-beast and totally schizophrenic creature Gollum in the fore ground of this month’s cover. It seems that another king is going to return in 2004. It will be 50 years ago next year, in 1954, that Elvis sauntered into the studio and recorded ‘That’s All Right’ which many consider to be the big bang of rock and roll. So expect the usual anniversary celebrations and reports of sightings of the King by shepherds on hillsides and wise men from the north. My sighting of Elvis is taken from the famous 1963 screen print of the legend by Andy Warhol. For every king there must be a queen and who else but Marilyn could equal the iconic status of Elvis? This collage is taken from a study by the artist Mimmo Rotella, completed in 1962, a year of Marilyn’s death. Whilst Elvis is trying to gun Gollum down and Dylan looks inquisitively at the unheavenly creature, Marilyn just wants to take him home and cover him in kisses. Diamonds may be easily had and they may be a girl’s best friend but, for a Steptoe Senior loookalike who prefers thongs to Y-fronts, there’s nothing quite like a search of middle-earth for a golden ring to complete your set.
