Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright ~Bob Dylan

AT THE TIME
At the time, I should have married Dylan.
But he was already married.
When he was free, at the time, I was briefly married,
There was no pain, only a fast Get-a-Way.
Why waste time on a mistake?
Then he was free and I was free,
but at the time, we were still immature
even though he was ahead of me.
Then he fell back, and I got ahead of him.
Then I fell back and he got ahead of me again.
At this time, we’re even. I heard him saying
“Yes. I believe in a higher power and life after death.”
I know he’s numb, can hardly smile, and
staring at a handful of rain.
At this time, I been thinking…I should send a postcard.

I discovered Bob Dylan while I was sitting on a floor in the basement of a Mobile, Alabama bookstore. Down in the basement where the Used Books were at a marked down price. This was the book. I had never heard his voice, singing or his songs. I was reading the lyrics of his songs, and his scribbled notes. It was like being struck my lightning. I discovered that most all the world knew of him, but I did not.

just going up and down, back and forth
on the same old roads.
At this time, I been thinking..

Art by Bob Dylan
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there. I know Dylan will be gone soon..knocking on Heaven's Door. I'm up in the night, crying already, just thinking about it.
This is an odd album, but he can sing and record whatever songs he damn well pleases. They are old classic songs - that mean something to him.

One more on the sad news side of the scale...
The Band has left the building, with the death (at 80) of Robbie Robertson. :(

Thank you who/however this came to me...
A Look at a Slice of Frank Zappa's Life; Discussion with Moon Zappa
Perfectly in sync with the #psych #Music #biography #perspective such as seen with "Glimpses", and various memoirs and articles/interviews about the 'real-deal' of relationships and #context for some big celebrities - like #Dylan and #Band, as well as #BrianWilson and family, and some other well-known performers.
This one is very 'easy-listening', a spotlight (vicariously) on the life of #FrankZappa and #MoonZappa, in the aftermath of a 40-year anniversary of Frank's only commercial "radio song". So for teen-agers, he was upstaged by his 14-yr-old daughter! Her reflections:
Valley Girl
A 29-minute interview, where Zappa reflects very thoughtfully and soberly, reflections & responses to some very good questions.
Think you may enjoy this, @V. T. Eric Layton if you've not seen it. Another "glimpse" from someone who knows (like Densmore!)

This is a compilation I’ve assembled of live performances between Dylan’s albums Good As I Been To You (1992) and World Gone Wrong (1993), which are two of my favorite records. Missing tracks because Dylan has not played them live include Frankie & Albert, Canadee-i-o, Sittin’ on Top of the World, Step It Up and Go, Arthur McBride, Diamond Joe, Froggie Went a Courtin’, World Gone Wrong, Love Henry, Broke Down Engine, Stack A Lee and Lone Pilgrim.
Little Maggie has only been played once and Blood In My Eyes, Ragged & Dirty and Jack-A-Roe were only played during the Supper Club shows. Most of the material was played during the early 90's, except for some performances of Delia, You're Gonna Quit Me and Tomorrow Night (which was played once outside of '93-'94 in 1998). Dylan performed Two Soldiers beginning in the late 80's and his last performance of it was in 1994, which is included in this compilation.
