Bob Dylan - When The Ship Comes In C Em F C Oh the time will come up when the winds will stop Am F C And the breeze will cease to be a-breathin C Em F C Like the stillness in the wind before the hurricane begins, C F G C The hour that the ship comes in Em F C And the sea will split and the ships will hit Em F C And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking C Em F C And the tide will sound and the waves will pound C F G C And the morning will be a-breaking C Em F C Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path Am F C And the seagulls will be a-smilin' C Em F C And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand C F G C The hour that the ship comes in Em F C And the words that are used for to get the ship confused Em F C Will not be understood as they're spoken C Em F C Oh the chains of the sea will have busted in the night C F G C And be buried on the bottom of the ocean C Em F C A song will lift as the main sail shifts Am F C And the boat drifts unto the shoreline C Em F C And the sun will respect every face on the deck C F G C The hour that the ship comes in Em F C And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold Em F C For your wearied toes to be a-touchin' C Em F C And the ship's wise men will remind you once again C F G C That the whole wide world is watchin' C Em F C Oh the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes Am F C And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin' C Em F C But they'll pinch themselves and squeal And they'll know that it's for real, C F G C The hour that the ship comes in Em F C And they'll raise their hands ,Sayin' we'll meet all you demands Em F C But we'll shout from the bow ,Your days are numbered C Em F C And like Pharoah's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide C F G C And like Goliath they'll be conquered .

Joan Baez Imitates Bob Dylan
Twentieth-Century Music 18/2, 249–279 © The Author(s), 2021. Published by Cambridge University Press. This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi: 10.1017/S1478572221000013 Matrices of ‘Love and Theft’: Joan Baez Imitates Bob Dylan MIMI HADDON Abstract This article uses Joan Baez’s impersonations of Bob Dylan from the mid-1960s to the beginning of the twenty-first century as performances where multiple fields of complementary discourse con- verge. The article is organized in three parts. The first part addresses the musical details of Baez’s acts of mimicry and their uncanny ability to summon Dylan’s predecessors. The second con- siders mimicry in the context of identity, specifically race and asymmetrical power relations in the history of American popular music. The third and final section analyses her imitations in the context of gender and reproductive labour, focusing on the way various media have shaped her persona and her relationship to Dylan. The article engages critical theoretical work informed by psychoanalysis, post-colonial theory, and Marxist feminism. Introduction: ‘Two grand, Johnny’ Women are forced to work for capital through the individuals they ‘love’. Women’s love is in the end the confirmation of both men’s and their own negation as individ- uals. Nowadays, the only possible way of reproducing oneself or others, as individuals and not as commodities, is to dam this stream of capitalist ‘love’–a ‘love’ which masks the macabre face of exploitation – and transform relationships between men and women, destroying men’s mediatory role as the representatives of state and capital in relation to women.1 I want to start this article with two different scenes from two separate Bob Dylan films.

“It Ain't the Melodies That're Important Man, It's the Words”
“It ain’t the melodies that’re important man, it’s the words”: Dylan’s use of figurative language in The Times They Are A-Changin’ and Highway 61 Revisited ”Det är inte melodierna som är viktiga, det är orden”: Dylans användning av figurativt språk i The Times They Are A-Changin’ och Highway 61 Revisited Jacob Forsberg Fakulteten för humaniora och samhällsvetenskap English 15 Points Supervisor: Åke Bergvall Examiner: Elisabeth Wennö 2016-03-14 C-Essay Jacob Forsberg Supervisor: Åke Bergvall Abstract This essay compares the figurative language of Bob Dylan’s albums The Times They Are A- Changin’ (1964) and Highway 61 Revisited (1965), with a focus on how Dylan remained engaged with societal injustices and human rights as he switched from acoustic to fronting a rock ‘n’ roll band. The essay argues that Dylan kept his critical stance on social issues, and that the poet’s usage of figurative language became more expressive and complex in the later album. In the earlier album Dylan’s critique, as seen in his use of figurative language, is presented in a more obvious manner in comparison to Highway 61 Revisited, where the figurative language is more vivid, and with a more embedded critical stance. Uppsatsen jämför det figurativa språket i Bob Dylans skivor The Times They Are A-Changin’ (1964) och Highway 61 Revisited (1965), med ett fokus på hur Dylan fortsatte vara engagerad inom samhällsfrågor och mänskliga rättigheter när han gick över från akustisk solomusik till att leda ett rockband. Uppsatsen argumenterar för att Dylan behöll sin kritiska syn på samhällsfrågor, och att poetens användning av figurativt språk blev mer expressivt och komplext i det senare albumet.

'It Ain't Me, Babe'
‘It Ain’t Me, Babe’ Bob Dylan, Postmodernism and the Civil Rights Movement By Jasper van Emmerik Studentnumber 3626253 American Studies Master’s Thesis Advisor: prof. dr. David Pascoe 29 June 2015 15677 words Table of Contents Introduction 3 Chapter 1 – Theoretical Framework 7 Chapter 2 – Dylan & The Civil Rights Movement 17 Chapter 3 – Turn from Politics 30 Conclusion 42 Literature 45 2 Introduction On December 13, 1963, protest singer Bob Dylan was awarded the Tom Paine Award by the Emergency Civil Liberties Committee during their Bill of Rights dinner. The annual event celebrated an individual’s effort in championing the cause of civil liberties and this time the honour had fallen to Dylan, for his contributions to the cause through his protest songs regarding the Civil Rights Movement, for which he had become an important cultural symbol. However, his acceptance speech, improvised after drinking heavily during the course of the dinner, proved very controversial. It showed Dylan’s ambiguous connections to politics, in particular to the left of the political spectrum, and his rejection of being part of a movement. And they talk about Negroes, and they talk about black and white. And they talk about colors of red and blue and yellow. Man, I just don’t see any colors at all when I look out. […] There’s no black and white, left and right to me anymore; there’s only up and down and down is very close to the ground. And I’m trying to go up without thinking about anything trivial such as politics. They has [sic] got nothing to do with it.

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.

WHEN the SHIP COMES in Bob Dylan
Free Music resources from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk for personal education purposes only WHEN THE SHIP COMES IN Bob Dylan Special Rider Music - SESAC Oh the time will come up when the wind will stop And the breeze will cease to be breathin' Like the stillness in the wind 'fore the hurricane begins The hour that the ship comes in. Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit And the sand on the shoreline will be shakin' And the tide will sound and the waves will pound And the mornin' will be breakin'! Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path And the seagulls, they'll be smilin' And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand The hour that the ship comes in. And the words that are used for to get the ship confused Will not be understood as they're spoken' For the chains of the sea will have busted in the night And be buried on the bottom of the ocean. Oh a song will lift as the mainsail shifts And the boat drifts onto the shoreline And the sun will respect every face on the deck The hour that the ship comes in. And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold For your weary toes to be a touchin' And the ship's wise men will remind you once again That the whole wide world is watchin'! Of the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin' But they'll pinch themselves and squeal And they'll know that it's for real The hour that the ship comes in.

Bob Dylan Performs in Israel Again
Bob Dylan performs in Israel again Okay, I can’t resist. On Monday night I’m going to see Dylan, for the 3rd time in Israel. It’s either three strikes and you’re out as they said back in the old country, or as they say in Israel — pa’am shlesheet, glidah (third time, ice cream). The first time, in Park Hayarkon in 1987 was a disaster. Dylan was in a totally non- communicative mode, and the only saving grace was the opening set by Byrds lead singer Roger McGuinn, and the second set by his relatively unknown at the time backup band, none other than Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, who were more Dylan than Dylan himself. The second time was in ’93 in Heichal Hatarbut in Tel Aviv, when he compensated for the first time. Now comes the big challenge of competing with Leonard Cohen’s triumphant concert in the same Ramat Gan national soccer/football stadium a year and a half ago. So, in honor of the occasion, here’s a collage of my personal choice of some of his best songs. I really don’t know most of his more recent post-mid ’70s work, so if anyone can enlighten me on that, please do. Incidentally, it’s very hard to find Dylan versions of his songs on You Tube, because of some copyright issue. The list is not in any particular order: YouTube – Peter Paul & Mary – Blowin in the wind The song which introduced most people to Dylan, though I was one of the 5,000 people who bought his first LP a year before.
