THE BOB CATS NEWSLETTER JANUARY 26, 2018. CELEBRATING THE ART AND THE MANY LIVES OF BOB DYLAN • NOBEL PRIZE LAUREATE SONG & DANCE MAN. INSPIRED BY THEME TIME RADIO HOUR AND THE SPIRIT IN WHICH IT WAS MADE. ESTABLISHED 2006 BY PETER HOLST • 11 YEARS AND RUNNING. HTTPS://THEBOBCATSNEWSLETTER.WORDPRESS.COM Welcome to another edition of the Bob Cats Newsletter. It's night time in the big city and a newspaperboy in corderoy leans up against a phone booth on Main Street smoking a wrinkled Chesterfield spitting in the wind calling out for the Kid in a bellboy suit sweeping the walkway outside The Saint James Hotel. Old acquaintances from The Greta Garbo Home for wayward boys and girls and though they’re both young they’re now old considering their age. Drifting fog leisurely looms around the mighty steels and bricks of the Hohner Building and the old piano factory, lights burning, someone’s tuning a Mason & Hamlin baby grand in the still of night. Jeanne Severny leaves the Waltenberg Art Gallery in haste, a canvas wrapped in brown paper under her arm, bag across her shoulder, french afro in the wind, crosses Main Street and jumps into a street car named Teagarden chugging along towards the south part of town. ••• “DYLAN IS A PLANET TO BE EXPLORED” - TOM WAITS. ••• NEWS FLASH REVISITED MY OWN LOVE SONG • MOVIE SOUNDTRACK • THE TOGETHER

The din and the fury of the mighty mass rolling in treacherous dreams of rest. Heartbeats in the womb of it all and the silent chill of death smelling of seaweed and chickweed. There’s blood in the grass, marrow and bone listening to the circling crows Black dog waits a sitting pricked up ears, tail to the ground. The king and the sea both blind raging deep within. ••• HTTPS://THEBOBCATSNEWSLETTER.WORDPRESS.COM The Bob Cats Newsletter is inspired by Theme Time Radio Hour and the spirit in which it is made.
