The Bob Cats Newsletter 2017-11-10 THE BOB CATS NEWSLETTER NOVEMBER 10, 2017. CELEBRATING THE ART AND THE MANY LIVES OF BOB DYLAN • NOBEL PRIZE LAUREATE SONG & DANCE MAN. ESTABLISHED 2006 BY PETER HOLST • 11TH YEAR AND RUNNING. HTTPS://THEBOBCATSNEWSLETTER.WORDPRESS.COM Welcome to another edition of the Bob Cats Newsletter. It's night time in the big city and the leaves are falling from the trees caught up in the wind dancing down Main Street, crushed flat down on the cold ground. Jack Tar, sailor of the N/S Savannah jigs down the street, heading for Madam Thai’s, dark blue pea coat, sailor hat and with a sharp shine on his shoes, sipping fireball brandy from a silver engraved flask. A street car named Belagio stands still outside The Saint James Hotel, the pilot leans against a lamp post smoking a cigarrette as the hispanic mechanic digs around inside the motor, cursing, muttering, spitting in cascades in the rain. Cornwell the cracked actor watches from inside The Black Swan as the night watchman, from room #203, watches him doing that. In the kitchen area, behind a barrell of apples, the kid hides from the Tavernier twins, inspectors from The Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls, canvassing the area for freebees and fugitives.

  • Freewheelin-On-Line Take Twenty Two
    Freewheelin-on-line Take Twenty Two Freewheelin’ 220 There can be no question: it is a cinematic masterpiece; a milestone in the history of moving images. I am talking about Peter Jackson’s ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy , and, despite the multiple endings to the final part of the trilogy - ‘The Return of the King’ - nothing is lost when you consider the totality of the project. I couldn’t thus resist from having that half-man, half-beast and totally schizophrenic creature Gollum in the fore ground of this month’s cover. It seems that another king is going to return in 2004. It will be 50 years ago next year, in 1954, that Elvis sauntered into the studio and recorded ‘That’s All Right’ which many consider to be the big bang of rock and roll. So expect the usual anniversary celebrations and reports of sightings of the King by shepherds on hillsides and wise men from the north. My sighting of Elvis is taken from the famous 1963 screen print of the legend by Andy Warhol. For every king there must be a queen and who else but Marilyn could equal the iconic status of Elvis? This collage is taken from a study by the artist Mimmo Rotella, completed in 1962, a year of Marilyn’s death. Whilst Elvis is trying to gun Gollum down and Dylan looks inquisitively at the unheavenly creature, Marilyn just wants to take him home and cover him in kisses. Diamonds may be easily had and they may be a girl’s best friend but, for a Steptoe Senior loookalike who prefers thongs to Y-fronts, there’s nothing quite like a search of middle-earth for a golden ring to complete your set.

  • Bob Dylan Musician, Keith Negus. This File Contains the Pre-Proof
    Bob Dylan Musician, Keith Negus. This file contains the pre-proof versions of Chapter One and Chapter Five from Bob Dylan, presented here in this format with the permission of Equinox Publishing. I have called this text Bob Dylan Musician because this was the original agreed title of the book right up to the moment just before publication when pressure from the US publisher resulted in the term ‘musician’ being reluctantly (from my perspective) expunged from the title. That word – musician – was there to concisely signal how my approach differs from most other books on Bob Dylan. I am interested in his work and practice as a musician, rather than his lyrics as poetry or the relationship between his biography and musical art. The book contains five chapters, so these two chapters introduce and conclude the study. If anyone would like electronic copies of additional chapters I am happy to provide these, as long as they are used only for research and teaching. Keith Negus June 2013 CHAPTER ONE Surroundings On 31 October 1964 Bob Dylan performed at the Philharmonic Hall in New York City, just two years after signing a recording contract and with four albums already released. Having quickly gained recognition as a folk ‘protest singer’ he was rapidly moving away from songs of social commentary and ‘finger pointing’. Dylan was beginning to use the popular song in a new and radical manner to explore more internal or subjective experiences, whilst experimenting with the sound, meaning and rhythm of words. Within three months, when recording his fifth album, no longer performing alone with acoustic guitar and harmonica, he was beginning to create an abrasive yet ethereal sonority, mixing the acoustic and electric textures of folk, electric blues, rock’n’roll, gospel, country and pop.

    THE BOB CATS NEWSLETTER MARCH 20, 2020. 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 • 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 and doctor Thelonious Mann is busy by the car wreck while the night nurse is away making a telephone call in the lobby of the Saint James Hotel. A streetcar named Mambrino goes by empty but for an octogenarian in an Italian suit and a fedora mumbling a kaddish for his late lover of Kaliningrad and a blessing for the little ones in exile, grey glaucoma speckled gaze following telephone lines. The Bentley’s beyond repair, the 18th century cast iron street lamp still standing. Ancient dried bird droppings on the artfully tylered pavement. The good doctor Mann performs the Heimlich Maneuver skillfully and insistent for a way too long a time. The night nurse breathing hard into the mouthpiece, the night manager anxiously biding his time as Tyrone Garrison of Galway fame and fortune and his sweet and dear betrothed Ursula Vanderbilt, notorious for reckless behavior, smoking weed and treading barefoot on cobbles in the springtime, ask for the check, please. The cracked actor’s in quarantine on the top loft of The Black Swan, all bunkered up with wine and books, cans and pasta. Visits strictly restricted to family, friends and neighbors, the postman and waitresses of the bar, heartily holding court beneath oaken beams.

  • The Recording Sessions
    Bob Dylan: The Recording Sessions by Michael Krogsgaard, compiled from files available at http://www.punkhart.com/dylan/sessions.html 1 2 Some general information regarding the different sources made available for the study: 1. The Columbia Studios Recording Diaries are books, which for each day of the year (since 1941) list every planned session in the different studios. Information includes: time of the day, name of the studio, name of the producer and the engineers and the name of the artist. For the New York studios one diary is missing, that which covers the period January 1967 to December 1970. For the Nashville studios, the diary for the period 1969 to 1971 is missing. 2. Recording Sheets are lists made during each session and put into each tape box. The sheet records the date, the studio, the artist, which tracks were recorded and the CO number (Columbia's own reference number) for each composition (of which, more later). Each recorded take is marked as complete (C), with a short false start(b) or a long false start (B). It is indicated on these sheet which takes are removed to other tapes for further use. 3. The Tape Boxes themselves also usually contain information about each take and which takes are removed for further use. 4. CO Cards contain information about the CO (CO=Columbia) number and title for each composition and usually also the recording date. The CO numbers are basically a secure identification of each composition but they are not always chronological (for instance: the CO numbers for songs recorded in Nashville are generally higher than CO numbers for songs recorded at the same time in New York), and, confusingly, sometimes one composition has several CO numbers, especially (but not always) if it has been recorded several times at different sessions.

MUSC 424 Section no. 47255R Units: 2 Time: Mondays 10:00-11:50am Room: KDC 241 Course instructor: Bill Biersach Instructor’s office: KDC 241 Instructor’s office hours: MW 9 – 9:45 am, 12 – 1 pm Office phone: (213) 740-7416 Instructor’s email: [email protected] The Premise Bruce Springsteen said it best on January 20th, 1988, at the induction of Bob Dylan into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: Dylan was a revolutionary. Bob freed your mind the way Elvis freed your body. He showed us that because the music was innately physical did not mean it was anti-intellectual. He had the vision and the talent to make a pop song that contained the whole world. He invented a new way a pop singer could sound, broke through the limitations of what a recording artist could achieve and changed the face of rock and roll forever. Without Bob, the Beatles wouldn’t have made Sgt. Pepper, the Beach Boys wouldn’t have made Pet Sounds, the Sex Pistols wouldn’t have made “God Save the Queen,” U2 wouldn’t have done “Pride (in the Name of Love),” Marvin Gaye wouldn’t have done “What’s Going On,” the Count Five would not have done “Psychotic Reaction,” Grandmaster Flash might not have done “The Message,” and there never would have been a group named the Electric Prunes. To this day, Bob’s own modern work has gone unjustly underappreciated because it’s had to stand in the shadow … So I’m just here tonight to say thanks, to say that I wouldn’t be here without you, to say that there isn’t a soul in this room who does not owe you his thanks.

    Dante e l’arte 6, 2019 11-24 Bob Dylan and that “Italian Poet from the Thirteenth Century” Mattew Collins Harvard University [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6818-8172 Abstract Beginning with a verse in Bob Dylan’s “Tangled up in Blue” that details two characters reading a book of poems by an unnamed Italian poet from the thirteenth century, the direct and ‘diffused’ influence of Dante upon the great American songwriter and Nobel Laurate is investigated. Further, a possibly intentional narrative similarity is proposed between the story told in “Tangled up in Blue” and the one Francesca tells in Inferno 5. After exploring the available evidence regarding the explicit influence of Dante’s work upon the songwriter, and other hypotheses related to the verse from this song in particular, sources for Dante’s diffused influence upon Dylan are discussed. With often enigmatic lyrics and elusive sta- tements, this latter point regarding Dante’s abundant presence in literary works that we know Dylan read confirms the role Dante plays—in one way or another—within Dylan’s lyrical oeuvre, even if the identity of that thirteenth century Italian poet in the song will likely remain a mystery. Key Words: Dante Alighieri; Bob Dylan; Tangled up in Blue; Inferno 5; Ezra Pound; T.S. Eliot. Riassunto A partire da un verso di “Tangled up in Blue” di Bob Dylan che descrive due personaggi che leggono un libro di poesie di un poeta italiano del XIII secolo, si indaga l’influenza diretta e ‘diffusa’ di Dante sul grande cantautore americano e Premio Nobel.
