  • 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.

  • Freewheelin-On-Line Take Twenty One
    Freewheelin-on-line Take Twenty One Freewheelin’ 219 This month’s cover could be the ultimate statement on the art of minimalism. Or, as Chris Cooper suggests, it could be a picture of Dylan in a snowstorm. Actually it’s neither of these. In fact, this month’s cover is meant to be a visual representation of silence which I suppose is quite natural when you consider that the journal itself concerns the comings and goings of an artist who makes a lot of noise. Before you accuse me of being a pretentious git let me plead for your sympathy and say that it wasn’t meant to be this way. I had planned a festive cover with bangles, baubles, beads and lots of angles. But then one foggy November eve some malicious spam spreader cast his spell my way and sent me an email, purporting to be from Paypal, inviting me to open an attachment. Dutifully, ignorantly and very stupidly I opened the attachment whereupon some worm leapfrogged my internet security system and crashed my pc. I tried to boot, boot boot the machine into life which only made matters worse. So I was left with no hardware, no software, no email facility and, worst of all, no access to Expecting Rain. Total silence on all fronts. I am now waiting for Santa Baby to hurry down the chimney with a brand new pc packed tight with some massive gigs and other things. Yet all I really wanna do is plug in a machine that works. So that I can hear that Windows jingle.

  • Who's This Guy Dylan Who's Borrowing Lines from Henry Timrod?
    Who’s This Guy Dylan Who’s Borrowing Lines From Henry Timrod? - New York Times Page 1 of 4 September 14, 2006 Who’s This Guy Dylan Who’s Borrowing Lines From Henry Timrod? By MOTOKO RICH Perhaps you’ve never heard of Henry Timrod, sometimes known as the poet laureate of the Confederacy. But maybe you’ve heard his words, if you’re one of the 320,000 people so far who have bought Bob Dylan’s latest album, “Modern Times,” which made its debut last week at No. 1 on the Billboard album chart. It seems that many of the lyrics on that album, Mr. Dylan’s first No. 1 album in 30 years (down to No. 3 this week), bear some strong echoes to the poems of Timrod, a Charleston native who wrote poems about the Civil War and died in 1867 at the age of 39. “More frailer than the flowers, these precious hours,” the 65-year-old Mr. Dylan sings in “When the Deal Goes Down,” one of the songs on “Modern Times.” Compare that to these lines from Timrod’s “Rhapsody of a Southern Winter Night”: A round of precious hours Oh! here, where in that summer noon I basked And strove, with logic frailer than the flowers. “No doubt about it, there has been some borrowing going on,” said Walter Brian Cisco, who wrote a 2004 biography of Timrod, when shown Mr. Dylan’s lyrics. Mr. Cisco said he could find at least six other phrases from Timrod’s poetry that appeared in Mr.

The mono albums were eventually reissued by the US specialist reissue label Sundazed between 2001 and 2004, though only in vinyl format. They were remastered by Sundazed owner Bob Irwin, a well-respected audio engineer in his own right. Irwin put a lot of work into finding the right master tapes as well as into the remastering process itself, but nonetheless these editions evoked a somewhat mixed response, with some albums better received than others.

INSPIRED BY THEME TIME RADIO HOUR AND THE SPIRIT IN WHICH IT WAS MADE. ESTABLISHED 2006 BY PETER HOLST • 13 YEARS AND RUNNING. HTTPS://THEBOBCATSNEWSLETTER.WORDPRESS.COM Welcome to another edition of the Bob Cats Newsletter. It's night time in the big city. The heavy bass line from an electric Fender bass guitar rattles the walls of the humble abode of the cracked actor on his hands and knees looking for the bottle cap to his Mexican root beer. A streetcar named Macondo goes by adding tremble and wobble to the painted boards on top of The Black Swan. He recognizes the fateful steps of madam McIntyre-Mire, landlord and loan shark from the Baltic Midlands, bringing wine and bread on a silver tray for his nocturnal shift. She’s wearing a quarantine mask in leather and doesn’t bother to knock. Nothing in this living world would upset her except late rents and polkas. The night nurse’s crying in her coffee in an all-night café. Life is but a string well-tuned or cut. The sign of the Saint James Hotel’s twinkles, it’s a bad wire and a burned connection. The night manager tears off his toupee and screams at the slow and tardy ceiling fan in mahogany carrying yesteryear’s dust and July flies to of a waltz by Strauss on the radio. ••• ROUGH AND ROWDY WAYS • THE REVIEWS BOB DYLAN - ROUGH AND ROWDY WAYS.
