1966 was a mega special moment in time. I still have visions from 1966, just as if I am still there.

Thanks for the memories.

According to CNN, Dylan won't be able to attend the Nobel prize ceremony. They have it on good authority that instead he will be at Target trying on several pairs of shorts.

Dylan has a previous commitment on December 10th so he can't be in Sweden. He's playing the Majestic in Madison and then over to Meadehouse for some beers.

My exposure to Rainy Day Woman #13&35 was while stacking boxes in a SF warehouse along side a Gypsy Joker going on trial for shooting a Hells Angel. Memories, memories.

Had a paroled Gypsy Joker working for 20 year old me while assistant manager at gas station. Manager wanted me to call Joker at home and ask about a cash shortage-

uh, no thanks, YOU call him!

I still can't decide if Sad Eyed Lady of the Low Lands is great or terrible

It's great... but... it's terrible. That's what makes Dylan Dylan.

Dylan!

Fuck yeah!

According to the Internet Adult Film Database there are four 'adult movies' titled "Blonde on Blonde."

I had expected more, really. Possibly even a series, like "Blonde on Blonde, Volumes One through Whatever."

Two of these four are 'All Girl" -- no male performers included. That was kinda expected. Self-descriptive.

There is a fifth title listed: "ElectroSluts 28291", which has the alternate title "Blonde on Blonde Electric Play!" Some people probably bought this expecting more "Blonde on Blonde Acoustic Folk Play" and got all angry.

I would have thought that there would've been some Dylan-obsessed frustrated artist working in Seventies Porn that would've done an 'arty' Dylan-obsessed porn feature titled "Blonde on Blonde," complete with a "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" cover homage that gets naked quickly, but I was disappointed.

Also: entering "Bob Dylan" on the Internet Adult Film Database brings no results. Which is probably a relief.

As a comparison, I entered the name of Neil Young's "On The Beach" album -- another title with porn overtones -- into the Internet Adult Film Database.

It brings back 37 results, but only four -- a tie! -- can legitimately be called "On The Beach": two versions of "On The Beach", followed by "On the Beach 2" and "On The Beach 3". The others just have 'on the beach' as part of a longer title: "Rumpman Sex on the Beach," "Sluts on the Beach", and "Blasts Farts on the Beach." This last one is a real title, at least according to the Site. From Brazil.

Entering "Brazilian Bob Dylan" didn't bring up any impersonators on a quick glance at Google, so there is room, you Brazilian Dylan Impersonators: seize the mantle.

"Brazilian Bob Dylan" DID bring up a series of Bob Dylan paintings: "The Brazil Series". Just to be completist. With Dylan there is always the tendency towards completist.

Sooner or later, one of us must know...

that Nashville studio musicians can play really good!

OMG! I got this old and didn't know that!

I feel so complete now.

It's kinda sad, actually. Now what?

That's what! Vote for me!
