This land is my land… Johnnys in the basement making up the medicine. . I perform Robert Johnson Walk-in Blues .. Wald is a brilliant cat . . I can’t wait to dig. The flick. Brilliant interview. Revealing and insightful.. Dylan is a Garbo like figure a superstar who lives in the shadows but who’s influence on society is incroyable- and the Oscar for best actor goes to…….
Great interview, Simon. I've not read Elijah's Dylan book, but I thought his Robert Johnson book was terrific. One thing struck me as odd, from the author of a book specifically about Dylan going electric - he describes the Free Trade Hall as a 'smaller room'!
Hi Peter – I think Elijah was merely calculating the fact that there was an audience at Newport which was maybe 10 times the size of that at the Free Trade Hall. Did that favourite venue of old take more than 2,000, I wonder?
