  • Blood on the Tracks: ‘Time Is an Enemy’
    Judas! Blood on the Tracks: ‘Time is an enemy’ by John Hinchey ‘Up to Me,’ an outtake eventually released on Biograph, is a rueful ballad of love wasted that picks up the action at the conclusion of ‘Idiot Wind,’immediately after the singer realizes that he and his beloved have fallen out of each other’s orbits. But its tone seems tempered by the realizations of those songs, discussed in the preceding chapter, in which the singer assimilates a devastating romantic loss and struggles to regain speaking terms both with his lost beloved and with himself. Now, in ‘Up to Me,’ the singer he returns to tell her – and himself – what he’s going to do about it. His plan of action is paradoxical: he’s heading out on the ‘Union Central’ in search of the same missing wife he’s leaving. The song I just described is over by the end of the third verse, yet ‘Up to Me’ is twelve verses long. The song gets away from Dylan, overflowing the bounds of the paradoxical farewell note. The lyric feels unfinished, and unlike, for instance, the original version of ‘Idiot Wind’ (later released on The Bootleg Series, Vol. 1-3), it also strikes me as unfinishable, except by starting over from scratch. Indeed, ‘Shelter from the Storm’ can be seen as a radical revision (and revisioning) of ‘Up to Me.’ The problem is that the momentum of feeling that sweeps the singer from one verse to the next seems to be largely unconscious, feelings he recognizes (if at all) only after the fact.

    TOM ROGER AADLAND: BLOD PÅ SPORA (Norwegian version of Dylan’s Blood On The Tracks album) Embacle Records EMB 147759 1 Release date: Oct 12 2009 Order CD from: [email protected] Distribution: www.musikkoperatorene.no Web: www.tom-roger.com Singer, guitarist and songwriter Tom Roger Aadland has translated Bob Dylan’s entire Blood On The Tracks album into Norwegian. The Norwegian album version features an interesting combination of musicians from different backgrounds who found common ground in Dylan’s remarkable songs. Producer and classically trained pianist Brian Connor has worked with Van Morrison and Riverdance, while bass player Per Steinar Lie and drummer Ørjan Haaland have earned their dues in the critically acclaimed Norwegian low-fi-post rock band The Low Frequence in Stereo. In appropriate Dylan manner, the band did not rehearse before going into studio. In fact, the song Stor jente no (You’re a Big Girl Now) was recorded within the first thirty minutes the band ever played together. Throughout the sessions the songs were recorded at the moment they took an interesting shape. The album also features performances by Linn Frøkedal, who sings a beautiful duet on Lagnaden sin vri (Simple Twist of Fate), and gentleman of the accordion Erling Kvarven, who brings a touch of Nordic melancholy to Lilly, Rosmari og Hjarterknekt (Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts).

  • “Tangled up in Blue” (Blood on the Tracks: Dylan 1975; Dylan 2004, 329-47) Is the Image of Medieval Material Made Suddenly Relevant in the Present Day
    Bob Dylan’s Ballade At the heart of Bob Dylan’s 1975 song, “Tangled Up in Blue” (Blood on the Tracks: Dylan 1975; Dylan 2004, 329-47) is the image of medieval material made suddenly relevant in the present day. Among lyrics that wander widely throughout space and time, the action stops for a moment of transcendent timelessness: Then she opened up a book of poems and handed it to me Written by an Italian poet from the thirteenth century. And every one of them words rang true And glowed like burnin’ coal Pourin’ off of every page Like it was written in my soul from me to you Tangled up in Blue. (Dylan 2004, 332)1 This book of poems is not the only medievalist element of the song. In “Tangled Up in Blue,” Bob Dylan engages with medievalism in two ways: first, through his play with tropes of courtly- love literature, as popularly understood, including imagery and specific references to medieval literary tradition in the lyrics, and second, through his use of a particular medieval musical form, the ballade. The second type of medievalism in this song, involving the lyrical and musical structure, is less easily noticed than the inclusion of a 13th-century Italian book of poems in the lyrics. Dylan structures “Tangled Up in Blue” in a form used by some troubadours, later named “ballade” in the French poetry and music of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries (Johnson 1991). A number of pop musicians in the 1970s included medieval references in their songs, through imagery in the lyrics, modal tunes, and “early music” instrumental choices, but these choices are on display, used to establish a mood or medieval flavor for listeners (Sweers 2005; Upton 2012).

  • Señor (Tales of Yankee Power)”: a Window Into Bob Dylan’S Existential and Religious World
    chapter 1 “Señor (Tales of Yankee Power)”: A Window into Bob Dylan’s Existential and Religious World Reidar Aasgaard Professor, idéhistorie, IFIKK, Universitetet i Oslo Professor of History of Ideas, IFIKK, University of Oslo Abstract: “Señor (Tales of Yankee Power)” is a central song on Street-Legal, the album Bob Dylan released in 1978, a short time before his Christian conversion experience and the so-called Christian album trilogy of 1979–1981. Within the set- ting of a journey through a half-real, half-mythical landscape, the song describes an encounter between an I-figure, the singer, and his travel companion, a mysterious, silent “señor”, with the singer going through a process of growing frustration lead- ing to a state of existential despair. The article gives a close, narrative reading of the lyrics and analyzes the song within the contexts of the album, of the development of Dylan’s religious language, of his performances of the song from 1978 to 2011, and of his own comments on it. The main conclusion is that “Señor” can be read in different ways, but that religion, and Christianity in particular, plays an important and integral part in the various readings. The song reflects Dylan’s artistic and per- sonal situation at the time, also by foreshadowing his conversion experience, but at the same time belongs within a long trajectory of Dylan songs from the 1960s until today which deal with fundamental human themes related to history, society, social relations, religion, and life in general. Keywords: Bob Dylan, Christianity, Bible, literary analysis, contextual analysis Samandrag: «Señor (Tales of Yankee Power)» er ein sentral song på Street-Legal, albumet Bob Dylan gav ut i 1978, kort tid før sitt kristne gjennombrot og den såkalla kristne albumtrilogien frå 1979–81.

  • “Sólo Soy Un Guitarrista”: Bob Dylan in the Spanish-Speaking World–– Influences, Parallels, Reception, and Translation
    Oral Tradition, 22/1 (2007): 112-133 “Sólo Soy Un Guitarrista”: Bob Dylan in the Spanish-Speaking World–– Influences, Parallels, Reception, and Translation Christopher Rollason “Sólo soy un guitarrista” - Bob Dylan, Tarantula (1966) “La guitarra. como la tarántula, teje una gran estrella” - Federico García Lorca, “Las seis cuerdas,” (1931) Spanish Manners: An Introduction This paper aims to examine the relationship between Bob Dylan’s work and the cultures, literatures, and musics of the Spanish-speaking world. The relationship is bidirectional, taking in Spanish and Latin American influences and themes in Dylan’s production, as well as the influence and reception of that work in the Hispanophone universe. I further consider not only direct influences but also literary and musical parallels, and also briefly examine the translation of Dylan into Spanish. What I am offering is a case- study in intercultural relations, not an excursion into theory, and I shall not be explicitly entering into issues of ethnoliterature, ethnomusicology, cultural studies, or translation studies. I do, however, stress by way of introduction that I believe Dylan’s work is a particularly interesting case of a hybrid cultural object, the result of a fusion, not so much between a bipolarised “high” and “low” culture as between three different cultures–– intellectual culture, mass culture, and folk or traditional culture. Much in Spanish and Latin American cultures, both literary and musical, is similarly– –and fecundly––hybrid in its make-up, building bridges between

  • Ulterior Significance in the Art of Bob Dylan” Journal of Macrodynamic Analysis 6 (2011): 18-40
    Glenn Hughes, “Ulterior Significance in the Art of Bob Dylan” Journal of Macrodynamic Analysis 6 (2011): 18-40 Ulterior Significance in the Art of Bob Dylan Glenn Hughes “[The importance of symbols in] human living is exemplified, for example, by the saying, Let me write a nation’s songs, and I care not who writes her laws.”1 It is a commonplace to refer to Bob Dylan as an extraordinarily gifted artist who transformed the medium of popular song, radically expanding and redefining its possibilities. It is also common to note the uneven quality of his artistic output—as songwriter, recording artist, and performer—during the fifty years of his still-continuing career. As the historian Sean Wilentz puts it in his 2010 study, Bob Dylan in America: “Dylan’s career has been an unsteady pilgrimage, passing through deep troughs as well as high points ...”2 Since the period of his early successes and innovations in the world of American popular music in the 1960s, there have been stretches—some shorter, some longer—when he has produced poor, even embarrassing, work, and his artistic reputation rests heavily on the achievements of those early years. Still, he has remained a prolific and recurrently powerful artist, creating significant and highly 1 Bernard Lonergan, “Art,” in Topics in Education, Collected Works of Bernard Lonergan, vol. 10, ed.
