Bob Dylan - "Bob Dylan"

This is sort of a random post because this isn't even close to being one of my favorite Dylan records.  Too bad Aaron's too lazy to post on here, cuz that dude knows way more about Dylan than I do.  He almost knows too much about Dylan. But I've been rocking this album lately so I'm sharing it with you guys now.  "In My Time Of Dyin" is my favorite song on this record cuz it's got fucking cool attitude!  All he wants you to do is "take his body home" man!  Plus you might notice that Spacemen 3 borrowed some lyrics from this jam for their song "Come Down Easy" which I posted a while ago.  That band was so good at stealing shit and making it their own.  I love that.  Here's "Fixin' To Die" as well cuz this one is bad ass too.  Dyan didn't write either one of these, they're traditional songs. In fact most of this record is, I think it boasts only two originals.  On a side and somewhat related note, the skatepark in Glendale is fucking awesome!  I've been skating there the last few days with Sam Velde.  My body is freaking out cuz I haven't exercised in years, I'm a total fat ass old man, it sucks. Yeeeeeeeebrah!

haha. i'll listen to these when i get home, but i thought people might find it funny that drive thru records is gonna release a 2 disc set dylan tribute...what the fuck are drive thru bands covering dylan for?

zeppelin did a version of "in my time of dying" on physical graffitti, too. that shit is red hot like 11 minutes or something.

I've been listening to Nashville Skyline lately. I don't get why critics seem to down it all the time as being mediocre. I think it's really good.

Dylan's whole catalog has been reissued. Every album is in a digipack and is SACD/CD remastered.

i like how spiritualized rips off folk singers. another classic is when they rip-off John Prine during Cop Shoot Cop . . . "there's a hole in my arm where all the money goes" or somethin' like that.

[John]

oh yeah...... did you know that a lot of the session dudes on nashville skyline played on ween's "country golden hits?"

[Tyler]

I guess I'm not the only one who noticed those Prine lyrics after all.

[John]

let's hope on the new album (whenever it comes out) J. takes lyrics from Kris Kristofferson!

[Elise]

I likes his early stuff I think he sold out after his first album, Nice melodies

[mendo]

Patrick if you think mall-punk bands covering Dylan sounds bad you should never under any circumstances hear the Bjork/Sugarcubes cover album some shitty pop punk label spewed out a couple of years back, oh sweet lord.

[mendo]

Oh and I'm hoping that 'sold out' comment was ironic. If not you're a retard and should report to the nearest vet for spaying.

[Adam]

Unrelated to the post but I hear J. Spaceman nearly died twice but is now recovering. Get well Jason.

Hey, where's the Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie.mp3? It doesn't load. Zimmerman is the original rapper, and that's the first killer rap song(poem). I have the set of tapes but computers dont do tapes. I don't think it would be infringing on any copyright stuff if I could download it.
