Even high, Bobby knew his song before he started singin' .... and, like Caruso, he hit all the notes. I've been singing this song for years, drunk or sober. Never once got the words right. God gave Bob the words in the first place, and reminded him of them in his time of need. Bob Dylan, chosen by whichever God you believe in.

He gave it all for all the early years - his voice, his voice.

He is talking cryptically about William Burroughs in the beginning. Burroughs was a painter too. He divided his time between Mexico City and Texas for a bit. I've always felt this whole song is a montage and homage to the kind of life Jack Kerouac lived with Burroughs and chronicled in "Mexico City Blues" and "Tristessa". Kerouac would have to score heroin for Burroughs and one usually got it from female "leaders" who brought you someplace else to buy/sell it and were often prostitutes too. "They got some hungry women there and man they'll make a mess out of you". "Tristessa" of the book title, was one such leader/dealer and "Sweet Melinda" "The goddess of gloom" and "St. Annie" are her stand-ins here - "please tell her thanks a lot. I cannot move, my fingers are all in a knot (probably bad/tainted heroin). I don't have the strength to take another shot. My best friend the doctor (what they called Burroughs or anybody in drug circles who knew about drugs and reactions) won't even say what it is I got". Kerouac called Burroughs "Doctor Sax". "Playing the sax" was slang for shooting up in the 50's - 60's. When you read Kerouac's accounts and his journals this song makes perfect sense. The crooked cops and the whole scene. Kerouac himself never touched heroin but smoked pot, drank (of course), and lived in the bathroom. He found out "On the Road" was about to be published while living there penniless, near middle aged, in such circumstances. And naturally - "I'm going back to New York City I do believe I've had enough" - is something both Burroughs, Kerouac and many of the beats did when life somewhere else wasn't panning out. But let's not forget, at the time of writing, Dylan himself was starting to experiment with such drugs/having to score and some lines could be autobiographical. Going to Juarez or other Mexican border towns from Texas/Lower California to score Heroin was commonplace and chronicled so well (and painfully) by Lucia Berlin in her great short story "Carmen" from 'Manual For Cleaning Women' (the "Madame" she scores from is female too).

@soushores495

Great post. It follows very well with the "stream of consciousness" style of this song. Also a clear homage to Kerouac who captured Dylan's imagination when he found himself a genius in Hibbing, MN as a teenager and was trying to harness his intellect. I believe the line "housing project hill" is from Kerouac's writing. The idiot in the audience in Dylan's opening comments probably never got the insult when he said "go outside and read a book".He clearly decided early on that his creative expression would never be a static condition & he required the freedom to reinvent himself as often as he liked. To the great benefit of all of us, the one thing he held constant was sharing his creative output with us.

Thanks. Further rambling info. "I started out on 'Burgundy' but soon hit the harder stuff". Heroin was often given names of alcohol colors to differentiate it on the street. When you cooked it it turned colors depending on what it was cut with. "Cherry Wine" - "Jamaican Rum" (which Dylan fills up his shoe with in another song!) "The harder stuff" was always clearer - no color. He references so much street drug slang in his songs at this point - it usually went over the academic's heads! 'It's All Over Now Baby Blue' is about a girl (Edie Sedgwick?/ type) who has overdosed (you turn blue when you o.d.) while other users steal her stuff from around/under her, 'carpet', 'clothes', 'sheets' etc. - not uncommon unfortunately. He himself was slipping into a speed/heroin habit - his songs getting wordier and faster - his looks paler and speech slurred (like in this performance). It all came to a head with the bike crash. I've always suspected a "Tom Thumb" was slang for someone who shot up (with your thumb duh!) or a "newbie user" a 'Little Man' on the drug scene. Maybe something Dylan made up for himself. "Picking up Angel who just arrived here from the coast.....looked fine at first but left looking just like a ghost." What drugs can do to a fresh face. People are often uncomfortable with it but many of his songs are about street drug culture. "Subterranean Homesick Blues" is full of drug slang. "...in the basement mixin' up the 'medicine'...Man in a coonskin cap in a pigpen wants 11 dollar bills you only got 10!". "..must bust in early May, orders from the D.A." - It's pretty clear once you see it in this light. The beauty is you can interpret these "obtuse slang" phrases however you want.

I don't think you're correct, but I'm not positive it's the same tour. A few years ago (2016?) copyright in the UK was expiring, unless the live recordings were released. So they released a 20 CD set of IIRC this tour. I think they did the same thing with some Rolling Stones recordings. You might be able to track them down, but they weren't around long.

Who can say! This is the greatest artist of the 20th century blowing the wind out of the recording industry. Who knows what this might lead to!!!

Holy cow !!!!!! Best version by far !!! I play this song live every time I can and I’m good but nothing like this !! Wow 😯. Bob is my man . Crazy vocals - all emotion - crazy lyrics - so real yet fantasy - Badass Bob

I am so fortunate, Peter, paul and Mary, the Beatles, Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell, Laura Nyro, Linda Ronstadt...and so many more artists of the times were my inspiration to find my own voice in the arts. The sixties were very similar to the varied art movements at the turn-of-the 20th century in europe.

Right, it’s one of his stand-outs

Sure would be a bummer to have the rare chance to see Dylan - and he's bombed out of his F'kn mind! Sad. Saw Rod Stewart once, he was so drunk he couldn't stand, but his warm-up band, The Eagles, were GREAT! girlfriend & I walked out on Stewart. (performing in this condition... is theft, and I've loved Dylan for 60 yrs!

Whilst all the pontificators pour over the "meanings" of Mr. Dylans lyrics, and the Intellects post their "insightful" takes on Swingin' Pig's marvelous post, I wallow in the sweet sounds of Bobby, Robbie, Rick, Mickey, (Richard?), and Garth, shred this classic, sounds like the band Television! Such a punk rock version (reminds me of the Dewey Cox Story) Not always a huge backer of Robbie, but his licks in this tune are sublime. Thanks my friend for posting. Can't wait to see Dylan at Frost Amphitheater on the 14th! Saw him on the exact same day in 2016 when he opened for the Stones in Indio, CA. the night he won his Pulitzer!

And this is the trip he banged out BALLAD OF A THIN MAN ...after a quiet speech ...he retaliated with the most fantastic version of that song. How great that must've felt. Standing up Waving one hand Tapping out the rythmn within his boots.

What a dogtooth suit! Must be the best version I’ve ever heard of this great song. Thx so much. 🇮🇪🎱💜💒⏰

Pause became essential. Even in his darkest hours, his creative juice flow effortlessly it seems...

Thanks so much for this! I just can't say it enough how much I love ANYTHING that is "YOUNG DYLAN"! I was only 10 years old back in 1966. My Uncle used to like to listen to Dylan. I looked up to my uncle & I would pay close attention to the stuff he liked 'cause I always seem to like, what he liked. He was about 9 yrs. older than me. At home I didn't have a record player or albums yet for that matter. My older brother did, but I didn't get a chance to use his until I was a couple years older.

You've nailed a paradox in Dylan that keeps twisting back on itself through the years. As he says in "My Back Pages" "I was so much older then\I'm younger than that now..." I got to know the Mayor of McDougal Street, Big Dave Van Ronk, Z"L Rest In Play, who along with his wife\partner\manager Teri Thal at the time Dylan first hit NYC from the Minnesota Iron Range and then college in Minneapolis, Van Ronk & Thal extended their ratty apartment floor to this kid from the open mic nights at the Greenwich Village cafes (never the bars where you'd need a cabaret license in corrupt NYC to perform). Dylan didn't even give them his real name, they had to find it out by accident. But the kid was so funny that they loved having him around. By around, usually under the folding table that was like their only furniture and over which Van Ronk and Thal's Village pals came weekly to play cards with Dylan under the table typing away and occasionally passing typed sheets table-top for Van Ronk to critique). Read Van Ronk's memoir completed after Dave passed away about a decade ago by one of Dave's guitar students from the neighborhood, Elijah Wald: Truly one of the great Musical Memoirs (a genre invented later by Bay Area based poet ovelist\ lit inventor and U.C.-Berkeley prof as well as occasional club performer, Al Young.

And what was on his mind was something about Mexico, so that became the framework it was built around. Sometimes Bob put a lot of hidden stuff in his songs that he didn't want to be clear about for one reason or another (Visions of Johanna), but sometimes there really is just nothing there. But just because it doesn't mean anything doesn't mean it's not a great song.

The most God given talent ever

FAN BLOODYTASTIC THANK SO MUCH YOU ARE THE MAN

Bob sounds really ripped.

Just love this man form 13 years old through...

He once told everyone what his songs are about “some are about 3 minutes, some are about 4 minutes and some are about 5 minutes long”. Or something like that. If you can remember you weren’t there.

I just listened to Nina Simone's cover of this favourite of mine, very beautiful, very soulful, but I must say nothing beats hearing it from the man himself while he sounds ready to beat me to death with his Telecaster

That's probably the only case in which i prefer a cover to Bob's original, or other Bob's versions... Nina paint those 6 pictures so vividly, like not even Bob could, maybe for the sparsity of the arrangement and the composed intensity of Nina's performance.

I was there!

Cops like this song just because they appreciate that someone finally said: "the cops don't need you and man they expect the same." ...Even though Dylan is obviously loaded to the gills on who knows what...

Supposedly it was heroin during this tour. But you gotta read a lot of Dylan books to find out anything.

Gracias for this jewel

Whoa, what a performance! 👏

Ive seen this before many times but just now realized what he says just before they play those first few notes and then hit the first chords - what a genius thing to yell out - but not surprised at all !!!

Thank you.

Good one SP !

This was great.. still is❣️👌

I've been to Del Rio. It is in an amazingly remote part of the county. Dylan really got around.

He really sounds like he doesn't have the strength to get up and take another shot

Mickey Jones just killing it on this tour

In the future I hope there is a time machine where I can go back to this concert and smoke a joint beforehand

Great video just subscribed to your channel

Michele. Oh my, we should try to coordinate. I'm super psyched to see Tulsa. I'm in Texas but it's still far. Dallas is a good place. Airports. Shorter drive (or bus) to Tulsa.

Love it

I was at both Melbourne, Australia concerts in 1966 and Bob talked a lot at those concerts. Probably more during the acoustic set than after the interval.

Greatness. Thanks. C

Awesome sound

thanks Man

Saw him in cleveland,ohio on November 12,1965 and he did this song but was not as wild.

He was very tired by this show---the weary genius

1966 -- and they still had trouble mic'ing rock and roll.

Some time a song is just a song love tanks 4 this jem

Priceless

man bob is just great.

He is playing with the phrasing just like a jazz musician

Mozart lasts because his music can be played by today's orchestras. Nobody can sing Dylan like Dylan.
