  • Judas 9 Text
    Judas! from Inside A Prune Welcome to issue nine of Judas! As I write this Dylan has begun another year’s touring and although the set-lists may look predictable the arrangements are refresh - ingly, dramatically altered in many cases. Good for him. You will notice a New Morning theme through this issue, with no less than three articles looking at that intriguing period. In issue 10 there will be another theme running through the general articles and reviews; in this case it will be early acoustic Dylan, so if you have anything you want to say on that please send it in. I am not saying that we are doing theme issues as such, it is more a case of giving a recurrent flavour to certain editions. If you have resubscribed you will soon notice additions to the subscribers’ area of the Judas! website. Steve Lescure is generously giving us his 'Dylan Commentaries'. In his own words, he is ‘…bringing together information from a wide variety of sources - numerous books, magazine articles, and the Internet - condensing it down into the essentials and presenting it in an easy-to-digest format.’ This will eventually cover all of Dylan’s official output; the debut album material will be available in the near future. Also on our website we have started an archive section to publish those issues of Judas! that have already sold out. We are delighted to begin our series of excerpts from Izzy Young's back pages. These articles, notes and reviews can be found throughout the issue, wherever you see the symbol and comprise reprints - or first prints - from his notebooks as well as news - papers and magazines and so forth, as dated.

  • Tell Tale Signs
    I don't know anybody who's made a record that sounds decent in the past 20 years, really. You listen to these modern records, they're atrocious, they have sound all over them. There's no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing,… remember when that Napster guy came up across, it was like, ‘Everybody’s gettin’ music for free.’ I was like, ‘Well, why not? It ain’t worth nothing anyway. Bob Dylan 2006 A compilation of bits and Bobs from last 30 years? That'll be $129.99. Sony 2008 --- Introduction: I wrote this very soon after the release of Tell Tale Signs. Although I was presuming ISIS would be delayed in order to allow a more considered take on the release, my own work commitments demanded an early response in any case. I have presented it as a dialogue that highlights – if not exaggerates – trends I have felt in myself and in discussions amongst Dylan fans at large. I have taken the liberty of framing the dialogue in a setting plagiarised brazenly from a classic as Bob does with many an out of copyright source as Dylan Cynic would say or, if you are aligned to Dylan Enthusiast rather than Dylan Cynic, the framework of the dialogue alludes intriguingly to a past literary master in much the same way Dylan binds his own work artistically to Ovid in Modern Times. I won’t mention the play it comes from as the fun is surely always in the searching and then deciding if it is just rip-off or a deeply thought allusion that adds to the whole.

  • Paul K. Macdonald and the Surprising Success of Joseph M
    Graceful Decline? Graceful Decline? Paul K. MacDonald and The Surprising Success of Joseph M. Parent Great Power Retrenchment How do great powers respond to acute decline? The erosion of the relative power of the United States has scholars and policymakers reexamining this question. The central issue is whether prompt retrenchment is desirable or probable. Some pessi- mists counsel that retrenchment is a dangerous policy, because it shows weak- ness and invites attack. Robert Kagan, for example, warns, “A reduction in defense spending . would unnerve American allies and undercut efforts to gain greater cooperation. There is already a sense around the world, fed by ir- responsible pundits here at home, that the United States is in terminal decline. Many fear that the economic crisis will cause the United States to pull back from overseas commitments. The announcement of a defense cutback would be taken by the world as evidence that the American retreat has begun.”1 Robert Kaplan likewise argues, “Husbanding our power in an effort to slow America’s decline in a post-Iraq and post-Afghanistan world would mean avoiding debilitating land entanglements and focusing instead on being more of an offshore balancer....While this may be in America’s interest, the very signaling of such an aloof intention may encourage regional bullies.... [L]essening our engagement with the world would have devastating conse- quences for humanity. The disruptions we witness today are but a taste of what is to come should our country ºinch from its international responsibili- ties.”2 The consequences of these views are clear: retrenchment should be avoided and forward defenses maintained into the indeªnite future.3 Other observers advocate retrenchment policies, but they are pessimistic Paul K.

  • Vanguard Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1953 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963, and Various Other Sources
    Discography Of The Vanguard Label Vanguard Records was established in New York City in 1947. It was owned by Maynard and Seymour Solomon. The label released classical, folk, international, jazz, pop, spoken word, rhythm and blues and blues. Vanguard had a subsidiary called Bach Guild that released classical music. The Solomon brothers started the company with a loan of $10,000 from their family and rented a small office on 80 East 11th Street. The label was started just as the 33 1/3 RPM LP was just gaining popularity and Vanguard concentrated on LP’s. Vanguard commissioned recordings of five Bach Cantatas and those were the first releases on the label. As the long play market expanded Vanguard moved into other fields of music besides classical. The famed producer John Hammond (Discoverer of Robert Johnson, Bruce Springsteen Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin) came in to supervise a jazz series called Jazz Showcase. The Solomon brothers’ politics was left leaning and many of the artists on Vanguard were black-listed by the House Un-American Activities Committive. Vanguard ignored the black-list of performers and had success with Cisco Houston, Paul Robeson and the Weavers. The Weavers were so successful that Vanguard moved more and more into the popular field. Folk music became the main focus of the label and the home of Joan Baez, Ian and Sylvia, Rooftop Singers, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Doc Watson, Country Joe and the Fish and many others. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, a folk festival was held each year in Newport Rhode Island and Vanguard recorded and issued albums from the those events.
