Bob Dylan Revisionism
By Raeto West 31 May 2024
I'm guessing the original spelling in Germany had 'man' with two n's. A room-man; something like a superior footman, presumably.
any jewish references? pilpul suggested by i know what you need, but sh knows what you want' (or something).
Jewish takeovr suggested by standing in the close that you once wore.
they're painting the passports brown - suggestion of immigration?
dangerous whites? - the erailroadmen just drink up your blood like wine - I said well I didn't know that, but then again there's only one i've met
jews as inventing abrahamic stuff - property of jesus
oddly non-dangerous desolation row: personal stuff on young old maid and little boy lost, but not any of the desolation inflicterd by the usa.
rather suggests tame suburbs of identical house with cardboard walls, like Hibbing
long stories with rhyming anchor - Isis in a high place of darkness and light, lily rosemary and the jack of hearts with wild west suggestion and diamond mine ownership, black diamond bay
strange live vocal style; afraid of infirnging his sound on an old record label? But the words always seem the same; no new copyright?
name change to bob dylan etc heavily managed rather puzzled look
dylan thomas as turned his petrol blind face to the wind -- doesn't work with gas or petroleum
odd look as though from a coffered person looking at odd downtrodden tpes, including employee
tightrope-walker, leading actor, monk
shakespeare, ophelia
at 22 already an old mid, little boy last,
surprising absence of anyhting freighte with horror - stabbings vietname women raped, german towns bombed and set 'afire', housing as rack rent slums, napalmed peasants, rolling thunder, vietnamese shore being shelled under a pretext
God said to abraham kill me a son / Cain and bel/ Noah's great rainbow
bette davis
phil ochs surely a link with the Ochs
at Isle of wight - amiable charming - i ain't fighting any more - unquantified etc possibly supported as an sort of anti-war thing
met someone who organised I o W festival - still very keen - have to lisyten to many
dylan going to uee, getting people torepace front row multiple types
thinking of trv wilburys - did eg george harrison make jokes about chosen people
note from chambers on large number of poets [econ of scale - as in many fields - tinned foods; publsiehd sermons; and of course sheet muic and recorded music ]
===============================
How Dylan Catapulted Folk Music nearly 2 hour video
Greenwich village: I've not found a good history of New York, probably because Jews tels lies about such things. I'm not even sure how genuine the name is. Anyway, it's at the south end of Manhattan Island, which many people think of as New York City. Perhaps it was a refuge from slums; perhaps it was an easily-accessible place for landlords and owners; perhaps it was near the battery; perhaps it was boggy and not stony; perhaps the Admiral who bought land disposed of it as his wife liked.
British folk cecil sharp martin carthy (and dave Swarbrick)
Woody Guthrie
leadbelly note and young tradition take-off
looking for early interview - dylan at london airport - interview when he says "What??" - may have been invented from the start
some parodies of dylan but they're feeble and unimpressive
dark glasses phase - was he cross-eyed? Photophobic? Under an ad contract?
nasal sound? deflected septum? jewish inherited voice oddity?
Albert grossman, who looked a little chap, perhaps wondering if he should have back Shlomo Messiahmaker and the whalers
you used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat | who carried on his shoulder a siamese cat join the army if you fail
constitutional replay of mass reproduction = folk song
chain smoking in 60s - was he funded? dark glasses ditto - arranged by Grossman?
medieval minstrels [there's a book]
sinister side - zappa and chemical warfare invention of vietnam war and shgelling it etc - experimental weapons
mentions tom paxton - nothing serious. i saw him once name to suggest peace?
--OPERA, GILBERT & SULLIVAN - IN A THEATRE PEOPLE EXPECT A CONTINUOUS PLOT; THO THEY HAD VARIETY AND ?US VERSION
--cp victorian hymns. wonder if author(s) of all things bright and beautiful had visitors asking why 'god' 'created' tapeworms
--INVENTION OF VINYL AND THEN STEREO CHANNELS with both sides of groove slighly different
-- Dylan several voices - soft whisper, then louder, then loud with flourishes suggests he had to train his own voice
---can't imagine Pavarotti belting out chrome horse or sandy denny. Or ciaron bourke? with voice like coke crushed under a door - louis arsmstong?
orchestration complicated by time of blonde on blonde - possbly success meant players wanted more money - some must have practised for years - easy to imgine disputes
-SEEMS TO HAVE FADED OUT. OR MAYBE THE BACKERS LOST INTEREST AFTER JEWS WON VIETNAM
absolutely sweet maria --> sweet fanny adams as regards worlds issues
