  1. One thing about Donovan - seems a lot of people choose not to notice that he actually requests 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue' of Dylan in that Don't Look Back hotel room scene. More often than not, I see that scene referenced as Dylan slaying Donovan (after Donovan plays his song).
  2. Not "solely" at all for me. The Beatles and my mother are the only two items that were in my Top Five Favorite Things In Life when I was five, and still are today (sorry Mister Rogers).
  3. Ernie Banks interview on NPR The man.
  4. You are awfully selective when it comes to posting, I'll give you that.
  5. Worse than learning through a craigslist link would be learning through a post titled "Wilco breking Up?"
  6. "Crying Like A Banana In The Sun: The Cultural Shift Of Mid-60s America As Seen Through The Doomed Relationship Between Bob Dylan & Joan Baez"
  7. I forgot about this show - used to love listening when I lived in San Diego. Boston NPR doesn't air it. Thanks for the link.
  8. Sounds like the return of surly Tweedy!
  9. While this paints with some broad-ass strokes ("I imagine the majority of us on here have seen wilco live close to 10 times"? really?), I totally dig the sentiment. I think it would be crazy awesome.
  10. I came here to write the same thing about this: Actually, I enjoyed Magnolia more this time around than I'd ever enjoyed it before.
  11. I noticed a stat before the Sox-Angels series began, and though I'm not superstitious, it didn't exactly help foster any more confidence in a Sox team that already seemed ill-equipped for the postseason: the Red Sox 2008 regular season record is 95-67, the same record they finished with in 2003, 2005, and 2008.
  12. So Zimmy's playing three nights in Boston come mid-November. I'm not interested in the shows ($$$) as much as the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the Song and Dance Man as he's camped in Beantown for a long weekend (shows are Fri, Sat & Sun). Maybe the time of year will stir in him some Rolling Thunder vibes - I'd better tune up the car for a trip to Lowell or Plymouth...
  13. In the '80s it was sure annoying, as a teen, to hear old folks comparing everything to the '60s.
  14. Wow this thread has turned a stupid corner. WTF. We say extreme shit here sometimes (from all ends of the spectrum); we have to accept that.
  15. It's probably really George yeah, but I just can't get enough of my mental image of Dylan blowing away standing next to George as that song's being recorded.
  16. "Overexposed, commercialized, handle me with care." You gotta wonder what the Dark Horse would have had to say when Rock Band was being pitched to Apple Corps. I think it's from the Eat the Document footage that Dylan tells Lennon (between heaves) that he needs to 'listen to Harrison more' or something.
  17. Good a place to ask this as any: that's just gotta be Bobby blowing the harp on 'Apple Scruffs', right? I mean, who the hell else?
  18. You may be exactly right, who knows. Got it here: http://www.punkhart.com/dylan/tapes/70-may1.html I've never heard of this session.
  19. I feel like the "next" Beatles will have to be something like a group of (musical?) artists on the web. Someone who, years from now we'll be saying 'the web was never the same after (The Web Beatles) came around'. Cuz the world doesn't need another Beatles, and even if we did, they won't come to us in the form of a rock band.
