TT Today it was "Mother�s Little Helper". The first line prevents this song from its live debut, I guess.

In honor of this post, "Worried" at the El Macambo was the first song I listened to today.

God, Billy boy's bass on this song is gorgeous - so fluid, lyrical, melodic, unique.

After that, I was Crackin' Up -- Bo Diddley gets on the last flight to reggae city and the whole operation gets hijacked by a bunch of crazy British terrorists with loud guitars. . .

Absolutely brilliant.

Nasty Habits Surely Maxy has the El Macambo stuff that circulates -- SOMEONE must have sent that particular item in tribute to his highness by now.

Have you read Flippo's 70s book, On Tour with the Rolling Stones? It's quite enjoyable, and his account of this particular gig is very enjoyable. What I really found funny about the Flippo book is that it's obviously based on the style of writing developed by Larry Sloman in On Tour with Bob Dylan (the 1975 Rolling Thunder book -- new two CD "Bootleg Series" of '75 out Tuesday, btw), and there's a scene in On Tour w/Dylan where Flippo, in his editorial capacity at Rolling Stone, rags Sloman out for his "personal involvement " in his text! Too funny, the power games those music journalismos play w/each other.

> yes,i have and i will have another look at that gig review

Larry Sloman in On Tour with Bob Dylan (the 1975 Rolling Thunder book -- new two CD "Bootleg Series" of '75 out Tuesday, btw),

> i had that book once - do i understand you correctly - there is unreleased "rolling thunder" stuff about to see the light of day?? - fantabulous!!

btw nasty, thanks for quoting from the most drunken gibberish i have ever posted here - even if its substance was sound, the form was diabolical!!

You comprehend my meaningful gist. Tuesday out comes two CDs of Dylan and the Revue from 1975. Much seems to be from the Boston gig, but there are performances from that entire wonderful east coast bus raid. Complete details are over there at bobdylan.com. Now, I slightly prefer the '76 Rolling Thunder shows to the '75 Rolling Thunder shows because I like decay, dissolution and despair in my live music, and I STILL think that HARD RAIN is in desperate need of a remaster and an upgrade with about seven, eight, nine bonus cuts (Pity the Poor Immigrant, Railroad Boy, the laconic Hard Rain's Gonna Fall from the "rain" show, Deportee, hell, the whole of the Baez set, that crazy Vincent Van Gough song), but this Rolling Thunder double should be the business - first ever officially released live Hurricane alone should be worth the jack. Nothing like Rolling Thunder, man. '75-'76 was one year Dylan trounced the Stones but good live.

stonedinaustralia i agree nasty - it was (along with "punk" explosion)the last hurrah for rock and roll as a riotous, freewheelin circus - before the corporate types really got their hooks into it

i loved the tv special - and yes esp. "deportees", "railroad boy" and that version of "hard rain"

what is the major difference between '75 & '76 - is it personell or simply "the vibe"

thanks

Nasty Habits Basically what it comes down to is setlists and what they "mean" - virtually no Blood on the Tracks in '75 - a very celebratory atmosphere, a real triumphant discovery of possibility and hope - the vibe is very hippie, creative and totally rockin', very focused on Desire and the communal vibe of the RTR and the potential "neverendingness" of it all. Whereas '76, after the initial revue "ended" is the band expanding from the east coast, playing to often half empty arenas, and Dylan's marriage was absolutely, positively over. No one liked Renaldo and Clara, and the whole thing was a bitter, brutal mess, reflected in the setlists and performances, which had LOADS of Blood in them. IDIOT WIND in '76 is one the most howling, scary Dylan performances, his slide guitar on "Shelter from the Storm" is pure musical anarchy, and stuff like "Pity the Poor Immigrant" is just gonzo oddball wild weirdness - who knows why they decided to play it like a calypso rocker with the drummer on piano? Dylan retreats deeply into his music, and his voice is rarely more expressive - dig that version of "One Too Many Mornings" on Hard Rain. Also lots of in-concert lyrical improvs, usually brought on by mistakes ("Every time you move past my door you leave me standing in the middle of the air!") and a generally apocalyptic vibe, which is what I like in my live music - I prefer it when live music sounds like it could be the last concert anyone ever hears, summing the entire tragedy of human existence up nicely. Kind of like the sound of the Stones in '69.
