Bob's therapeutic...

An absolute legend even to this day

My thoughts exactly. I was 12 when he recorded it. And though I liked him and heard a lot of folk music, I was a greatest hits guy until I grew older. I wonder whether, if I'd have been 18, I could have recognized what this video shows so clearly.

@@mikem668 - I first became aware of his amazing songwriting primarily through the recordings of Joan Baez and Judy Collins, but I didn't really listen to Bob himself doing his songs till 1969! I was 21 by then, and the moment I finally heard him doing those songs *himself* it was like the most amazing thing I'd ever heard in my life! Joan Baez always said that Bob Dylan wrote "the best songs", and she was sure right about that. I thank both of them for having made a huge difference in my life. They were a blessing in each other's lives too.

@@georgecoventry8441 I'd heard plenty of Dylan himself before 1969, but mostly Dylan sung by others. And I'd seen people like Pete Seeger, Phil Ochs and Tom Paxton. Around the time of Nashville Skyline, I got hooked. And I had the money to go back and move beyond the greatest hits. Unlike KZfaq, you had to make choices and you were limited by who knew what. On singing, I love Baez imitating Dylan. But no one sings Dylan better than Dylan IMO. We were lucky then to be alive.

@@mikem668 - You're absolutely right that no one sings Dylan better (or even as well) as Dylan does. Yes, we were lucky indeed to have lived in those times. I was almost unware of the "greatest hits" or the "Top 40" aspect of popular music, because I didn't listen much to the commercial radio stuff. What I listened to was whole albums of whichever artist caught my interest....by buying the vinyl records....so I got to know all the songs on those albums, and didn't much care which ones were the "hits" on the radio. If I really liked someone, I bought every album they recorded and got to know all their recorded material. So in the start (early and mid-1960's) I was listening to records by Joan Baez...Buffy Sainte-Marie....Ian & Sylvia....Judy Collins....the better known North American "folksingers" of the time, in other words. And that eventually led me to Bob Dylan, naturally, though it took awhile longer than it might have. As soon as I started listening to Bob, I bought all his records, and they had a bigger impact on me than anything else I've heard before...or since. As for Baez, I thought she did the Dylan songs wonderfully....but definitely in her own style, which suited her. She was not *imitating* Bob's style.....she was doing the songs her way, and very well. I generally love the way she does Dylan songs, although it's very different sounding from how Bob does them....except on occasion when she's clowning around and *deliberately* imitating his vocals and phrasing. She does that now and then, just for fun. They sounded great doing the songs together too, kind of like silk mixed with sand. It was surprisingly effective, and Joan's a stunningly good harmony singer.

*_I envy that you got to be in the presence of such greatness so many times, sigh ..._*

I am 30 more than you and I can see Bob only here on You Tube, and I thank everyday for this gift all people that share Bob's vídeos to us, principaly these old songs and old versions... 🙏🙏🌻🌻💖💖

You are much lucky dear

I’m older than you and I’ve left every show of his thinking the EXACT same thing. To think this man won’t be around some day is just unfathomable. His words have literally shaped the man I am today and many, many of the things I’ve done and places I’ve lived. I once took a flight to Paris for a year to live and write because of his words. I thank Bob in the same breath that I thank my Creator with.

@@BDB78 What a wonderful comment, BDB!!! It is emotional for all we are Bob Dylan's fans. God bless him and you! Have a good Sunday!🌻🌻😘😘

Thanks, man :)

Swinging pig, I adore you

@@SwinginPig ^^ He's right. You are a gem. And your latest, "Can't Leave Her Behind" has been nearly the only thing I listened to for the past two weeks!

Ditto

Pig: I don't know if it's needed or not; but if you had a patreon I would gladly be a contributor!

Makes sense

I like this version better than the Times They Are A Changin' studio cut.

More melodic 😎👍❤

You're right that's the thing about him. He's somehow seen the whole world but still has the sensitiveness of a child.

Truth!

I’d pay for that

This man is my therapists, therapist (or @ least should be 🤦🏻‍♂️)

I have a t shirt that says that

Oh, Bobby you do your life just greatly. (The Right way in my opinion.)

@@mariettamilbert5594 text me on my private number, 6064413321

I agree, Dylan calms the storm. Have a great night ✌️💕

Thanks for coming by, Danny :)

@@SwinginPig wouldn’t miss it my friend ☀️🥂

Grew Up,This IS Most Uplifting 🙀

Its up to you - happy times or sad times Yuo decide, i chose to be happy.

He rewrites everything when he sings it a 2bd or 5th time. He's always changing up his songs depending on how he feels I suppose.

He was always ahead of the game!

Love the younger years of Bobby’s work 🙌🏻

That whole record is pure magic!!! 🤣❤️

@@DannyRoseOfficial Yes. Magic of the muse!

Um.. This is from "Times.." The 2 u mention are from the previous album "Freewheelin"

@@ameerordimly1449 yes but he performs these two mentioned songs in that CBC show

@@jinx1821 you said "from that sameRECORD" ....obviously,the cbc show isnt a record.

Got that right!

there wasn't anything like this at any time ever.. before or after. (excluding bob himself obviously). nothing like this in 1940, nothing like it in 1975, nothing like it in 1990, 2000, 2022, etc..

The words to songs everywhere have always began as poetry.

Actually this song is just Dylan's take on a much older song called "The Parting Glass". Look it up

@@simonsherratt1484 Agreed. But that is what Dylan used to do. When he met Martin Carthy he learnt some old folk songs and changed the words. The original "The Parting Glass" is beautiful. It is apparently Scottish but Hozier does it beautifully kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sNuWg7d92rnMc4k.html

. . . and some fools say he couldn't sing!!

Good point of view friend

Very good English, Rich, keep up your good work 😷👌🌈

@@petercloherty3428 thank you so much my friend! 😊

@@rich185 but better than your English was that you had something worth saying! Good stuff. 👌👌👌

Agreed!

Haha definitely on repeat!

Another world another time , light years from our eyes , so far away from our mind's eye , somewhere we will not see again any time soon.

I’d love to know a little more about the channel owner at this point , such great content, would love to know how they got into Dylan, favourite performances, other favourite bands/artists etc

Ross Wylde is the name, NY folk singer is the game

@@ashleywressell4664 As Danny hinted at, I'm a college student from San Francisco (although I have a more NY vibe) named Ross Wylde. You can find my music on Spotify, KZfaq, etc. :) Danny also has some great material out so look us up! Other fav artists are Nick Drake, David Bowie, Nina Simone, Queen, Rodriguez, too many to count haha. Can't name a favorite Dylan performance but my favorite performance year is probably 1965 or 1975. Got into Dylan when I was 12 and stumbled on this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hcuAZ6l3156cg4U.html. Hope that draws the curtain back a bit. Cheers!

@@SwinginPig now that does help lift the veil indeed! that's great man, just had a listen to a couple of your songs and to be sure I'll be returning, some great pieces in there, you can really hear your inspirations come through clear but with your own take of course. When I read that about other favourite artists I laughed a little - let's say we're quite similar. But anyway, thanks, and keep swingin'

Definitely

I don't need therapy. I just need to listen to Bob Dylan

And nowhere it is possessed by no special friend ❤️

Sinatra himself requested Dylan perform Restless Farewell at that tribute for his 80th birthday. He was the only singer that night who sang his own music.

I just watched that & have listened to it about 5 more times 🖤

everything has always been random. That's why he's the greatest. This is my favorite chapter of his career because to me it feels like he is realizing what he has and how transcendent it will be.

The singing. The guitar strumming. The harmonica. Like he's got three sections of brain all working at once. Genius I guess.

Absolutely! 🔥

No insult to teens, I grew up on Dylan and introduced a lot of friends who came into the folk-punk community with me as kids, but this is past their years, moreso than my years even.

Word of the day 🙌🏻

🙏🏻🙌🏻

Always!

Well said Janice!

Long live Bobby D

He only sang it one time since then..at the Sinatra tribute show... Its one of the greatest performances kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mtV_qc91m7LMn6c.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gap1armL1qjagJs.html

@@ameerordimly1449 Thanks!

@@ameerordimly1449 Wow. Thanks again. How interesting that he sang it in tribute to Sinatra, and apparently Sinatra requested it-- He must have known Dylan had written what was essentially his own version of "I Did It My Way" !!! 🎶

Agreed
