Our Featured Artist, Skye, Wasn't a Fan of Bob Dylan's Music When He Burst Into Popularity in the Mid 1960S— It Was the Be
Shakespeare’sin the Alley: Our featured artist, Skye, wasn’t a fan of Bob Dylan’s music when he burst into popularity in the mid 1960s— it was the Beatles who held the then teenager’s ear. Forty years later, in 2008, her viewing of the Martin Scorcese documentary about Dylan, No Direction Home, captured her attention. “I was amazed at what Dylan did at such a young age,” she A Tribute to Bob Dylan February 9-March 17 said. “His courage to speak out [about social planning a tribute concert in honor of Dylan’s change] was profound and his extreme talent 70th birthday.

Every Grain of Sand
lyrikkstafetten En lyrisk stafett I denne lyriske stafetten vil vi at kolleger skal dele stemninger, tanker og assosiasjoner rundt et dikt som har betydd noe for dem, enten i arbeidet eller i livet ellers. Den som skriver får i oppdrag å utfordre en etterfølger. Slik kan mange kolleger få anledning til å ytre seg i lyrikkspalten. Velkommen og lykke til! Tove Rutle – lagleder Jeg opplever poesi som bruk av Storheten og sammenhengen i alt språket, slik at det hos leseren som er skapt beskrives i ydmykhet skaper bilder og fornemmelser som overfor det små: i hvert blad som vekker følelse og stemningsfullhet. skjelver, i hvert sandkorn som Bob Dylans «Every Grain of finnes, i hver spurv som faller til Sand» står for meg som et poetisk jorden. Det er en sterkt religiøs mesterverk. Det er dypt personlig hymne som utfordrer agnostikeren og høyst universelt; en sår og i meg og fyller meg med respekt vakker beretning om fortvilelse, for noe som er større enn det jeg streven, undring og åpenbaring. kan begripe.

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.

THE BOB CATS NEWSLETTER APRIL 30, 2021. 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 • 14 YEARS AND RUNNING. HTTPS://THEBOBCATSNEWSLETTER.WORDPRESS.COM Welcome to the Walpurgis edition of the Bob Cats Newsletter. It's night time in the big city, there’s a fire on Main Street, people from all around in perfect lines throwing things of different shapes and forms into the flames; kitchen chairs, boards’n planks, rolls of rosy wallpaper, a hall clock, a rosebud- engraved sled, a shoe box of tear-stained wrinkled love letters from Paris signed Lily, vintage skis and yesterday’s papers, boxes of nylon stockings crackle and sizzle. On the truck bed of a lorry parked on the empty lot beside The Black Swan a tiny group of thin punk-heads bellows and bawls evergreens made famous by Frank Sinatra below a painted sheet saying Zebediah & The Blackbirds. A streetcar named Willibald Mountain comes to a complete stand still outside The Saint James Hotel. The cracked actor descends after a spell at the Camarillo. A second hand 1958 suit hangs loose on his once embonpoint and rotund frame, an alto saxophone-case in his left hand, which he puts down on the cobble stone lighting a Montecristo as the night nurse wrestles down her grandfather who’s shooting holes in the fire with a Zabala shotgun shouting Marlene come home! In the distance a fire brigade’s approaching as the sirens, punks and alto saxophone lines celebrates spring and the life it brings.

"Not Dark Yet" En Mässa Om Livets Brustenhet 16 September I Annedalskyrkan
"Not dark yet" En mässa om livets brustenhet 16 september i Annedalskyrkan Text och musik av Bob Dylan Mässan är utarbetad av Valle Erling, Mikael Ringlander och Pär Friberg. Valdemar Valle Erling - sång, gitarr och munspel David Ehk – gitarr Anders Sjöling - bas och sång Urban Löfgren – trummor Claes Johansson – keyboards Björn Almgren - percussion och saxofon Gunnar Frick - pedal steel, dragspel, orgel och gitarr Pär Friberg - predikan Gudmund Erling - celebrant Anna Jagell och David Oest - läsning ur Psaltaren Britt Grandin - överlåtelsebön Cecilia Nyholm - tackbön Ljus: Leif Ekring - Chroma Ljusuthyrning AB Ljud: Johan Blomqvist - Prosona AB Arrangörer: Kultursamverkan Svenska Kyrkan, Valdemar och Annedals församling Medarrangörer: Brämaregårdens församling, Haga församling, Högsbo församling och Skolkyrkan Än är det inte mörkt. Men snart. När nittonhundratalet nästan är slut släpper Dylan CD:n "Time Out of Mind " med spåret "Not Dark Yet". Som en sammanfattning av tidens anda och en monolog över hur den egna själen krackelerar. "Feel like my soul has turned into steel I´ve still got the scars that the sun didn´t heal" I samma tonläge ligger Dylans CD "Oh Mercy" som kom 10 år tidigare. Detta är låtar som rymmer en sprödhet och nakenhet som saknar motstycke i västvärldens rockmusik. Livets brustenhet i en samling enkla låtar med en sårbar musik där det vackra inte sällan ligger i de spruckna ljuden, i det som faller isär. Med hjälp av producenten Daniel Lanois lyckas Dylan måla mörka suggestiva landskap. Mässan "Not Dark Yet" bygger fram för allt på sånger från dessa två plattor. Vi möter en Dylan långt ifrån den kaxige protestsångaren från 60-talets Greenwich Village och den salvelsefulle predikanten från slutet av 70-talet.
