  • And Dylan's Romanticism
    “Isis” and Dylan’s Romanticism --John Hinchey I want to talk mainly about “Isis,” a song Dylan co-wrote with Off Broadway director Jacques Levy.1 “Isis” was the first of several songs that Dylan wrote with Levy during the summer of 1975, and this fruitful col- laboration yielded seven of the nine songs released at the end of that year on Desire. I’ve chosen “Isis” mainly because it’s an interesting and entertaining song in its own right, but also because it offers a useful vantage point for considering Dylan’s Romanticism, an abiding element in his artistic tem- perament that doesn’t get nearly as much attention as you’d think it would. Adventure, mystery, discovery, renewal, the vista of inexhaustible pos- sibility--these are the hallmarks of Romance. Its essence is an aspiration for a world without bounds, a vision of a life of unlimited possibility. “Forever Young” is a quintessentially Romantic idea, as is the popular conception of Heaven. Romanticism, you could say, is the impulse to find Heaven on Earth. It can sound ridiculous when you state it flat out this way, but al- 1 This is a slightly revised version of a paper presented at “A Series of Interpretations of Bob Dylan's Lyrical Works,” a conference hosted by the Dartmouth College English Department, August 11-13, 2006. Quotations of Dylan's lyrics are from the original official recordings, unless otherwise noted. When quoting lines extensively, I revert to the principle I used in Like a Complete Unknown (Ann Arbor: Stealing Home Press, 2002): “I’ve had to determine the ‘spaces between words’ for myself.

    Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum • Words & Music • Grades 3-6 Bob Dylan: A Giant Among the Greats Any short list of “greatest songwriters ever” includes Bob Dylan’s name. But Dylan stands alone for his impact on both music and culture. When Dylan received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2012, President Barack Obama declared, “There is not a bigger giant in the history of American music.” When Rolling Stone compiled a list of greatest songs of all time, Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone” was at the top. And when Time magazine selected the hundred most important people in the world during the twentieth century, Dylan was among them. Born Robert Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota, on May 24, 1941, Dylan began writing poetry as a boy, bought a guitar pop stars turned his tunes into Top Forty hits and added to at age fourteen, and soaked up country, folk, blues, and rock his fame. on the radio.

  • 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.
