In my university days in the late 60s, this was on the student coffee room jukebox. It was the only track I ever played on there, to the point where friends started to ask me why I never chose anything else. My answer at the time - I didn't need to, this was the best song on there by a long way!😀
Great song by Bonnie Dobson, in the 60's I used to try to sing this in a band too like Tim Rose ,nah nowhere near......Tims voice is very soulful powerful.....mine aint...I hope the message doesn't come true......
An O.G., fer sure. Tes song has had so many treatments, over the years. That's how you know it's stood the test of time. Thanks, Dobson ( and Plant sit-in' in ) to give it it's due. People don't last forever, songs do.
this has to be the definitive version of this tune. it’s been covered by everyone under the sun, however this stands out. the drumming is immense and, to me, is clearly the highlight. episode six’s, as well as The Move’s, version is also up there 👀
"for back then", For anytime, up to and including now. You don't hear anything even close to this on C.D. Analog compared to Digital. Even an occasional hiss or pop on an L.P. was o.k.
I had never heard of Tim Rose until just now, because of his connection to John Bonham. He sings great, and I love his version of this. But I especially love all the interesting information about the song, in the comments. Cheers
Try the " Episode six" version featuring " Ian Gillan" came out just after Tim Rose, ,I play blues harp with a band at our local jam! It is always requested👍
Cover of Bonnie Dobson (music and lyrics). Lyrics are very close to Fred Neil's '64 release on Elektra with friend Vince Martin. Neil changed the lyrics somewhat which was common practice, but he never claimed any writing credits for doing so. In fact, Elektra helped Dobson published the song so she could receive her dues. Tim Rose mindset was quite different… Interesting fact: Felix Pappalardi plays bass on both versions (Neil's and Rose's)è perhaps he introduced the song to Tim Rose?
@@philtred21 Original songwriter (Music & words) is Bonnie Dobson. Fred Neil recorded a version with slightly modified lyrics. Tim rose covered Neil's version and was able to register it and received 50 % of writing copyrights (100 % music copyright always went to Dobson).
Bonnie mistakenly put the song in the Public Domain so Tim Rose took credit (and royalties) Bonnie is still around, aged 81. Also recorded by The Human Beans with Dave Edmunds in 1967
this is the 1st version of the song I heard when I was living in S.F. and the peninsula listening to the Dead '65 - '69. I wonder if they heard it from the same source and picked it up.
The Grateful Dead version sounds more like the original Bonnie Dobson arrangement. They may have seen her perform it at folk festivals before the Tim Rose version was released.

Still got the single of this fabulous song, must have worn it out by now… Is that Bernard ‘Pretty’ Purdie on the drums? He played on Hey Joe I believe ✌️
Unfortunately I knew his talent only when he passed away If I remember well,i listened first time that gorgeous musical piece when I was in a bus in england for a beautiful trip.....a disc-jokey remembered him
From another Nige! (But in my case, Nyge - with a "y") - I've always been fascinated by this classic! Amazing that anybody else can also do it too - you HAVE to check out the formidable version by NAZARETH too - their versions of other people's songs always ARE good, anyway!
me too - but it took me another 40 years to find out I listened to my hero, Bernard Purdie, on drums for the first time in 1966 when I bought this single.
un genial clásico del maestro ....es interesante esta canción sus versiones de otras bandas también son geniales como la de dave edmunds y de nazaret es genial esta canción...la descubrí con un disco de dave edmunds
Saw him in 'The Middle Earth' London (supporting act for Pink Floyd) singing this back in the 60's Knocked out by his raw live power & gutsy telecaster. Best version ever!
Floyd's light show.....four lights behind them...red blue yellow and green. Air heavy with dope smoke. Everyone sitting on the floor talking for hours before the bands came on. Stumbling out into the west end light at 5am. . Waiting for the first train back to Barnet. Oh yeah!
“On the Beach” was about the world dying in the last days of nuclear fallout, and the few still alive choosing where to spend their last few days. Great film.
Folk singer employs hard rock rhythm section (Felix Pappalardi - Mountain, producer for Cream, also hired John Bonham as drummer for live shows) and a rough male voice. A very appealing combination for a musician who knew what to do with his talent but did not have much of an affinity for rock n roll . A unique imprint upon the fabric of popular music. Canadians (I'm one) don't like the the fact a US Air force vet ripped off this anti-war/anti nuclear apocalypse song...But for me what this man did with it is far too appealing to disregard. His status as a vet & his take on this epic song gave it the resonance it deserves. Bonnie Dobson remains a national treasure to Canadians for this & many other works that artists, present & future, should study and be formed by. I know she got fucked over on royalties & I don't like that. But the battering ram that is America is sometimes our only path to resonance.
I think it was wrong that Rose ripped off Bonnie in royalties by claiming songwriting credit but, as you say, what Tim Rose did with this song is amazing. I've listened to the other versions and by far his take on it is the most powerful and moving from my perspective. But what he did would rightly be called a new "arrangement" of the song, which is not the same as "writing" the song, so you can't claim writing credit no matter how much better you think you made it.
This song is one of the most covered songs of all time, this version IS one of the best and still makes me smile when I hear it. love it.
The best by far. Sadly he died a lonely life in London a few years ago . It was left to a firm of heir hunters to find his next of kin😢
This is my first time ever hearing the song.
Unless I heard a cover of it and it sucked, that's possible; this is GREAT!

Im 42 in Ireland and just heard this for the 1st time........ Goose bumps when his voice let rip! 👌👍✌️🎧🎶🎧

I remember this as a child and it is as awesome today!
He made a young guy cry with this beauty. Still love it 54 years later
What a wonderful rendition
Just found out my dad used to sing this in his band
RIP dad and Tim

Went to Nassau in 1969 as a 19 year old. Purchased a record player and this Tim Rose LP with first weeks wages. Best present to myself ever.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Best version ever .... My opinion only
Agreed

Listen to the Grateful Dead’s Version. You will like it!
My favourite version is by Ralph Mctell off his first album "Eight Frames a Second"
This song just popped into my head, from decades ago - what a track!!
That powerful, rugged voice! Love this guy ♥️
Only the second time I have heard this, first time was in the late 60s been looking for it ever since thank you triggaleg .Brilliant
Loved it the first time I heard many, many years and still enjoy it as much now. Great voice
STILL absolutely fantastic I well remember this the FIRST time around 👍👍
This guy died the day i was born, R.I.P to this legend.
so basically you caused it to happen
♥️
He died pretty early
Keith Relf died on my daughter's 2nd birthday and I can still remember that day.
Brilliant track from one of the greats God Bless Tim Rose RIP thanks for your great music Love Nige xx
A real gem this record, heard it the other day, have not heard it in years thanks for this
oh oh oh give me back 1969 and Tim Rose. Love the sorrow and pain. Live forever in a secluded universe
An O.G., fer sure. Tes song has had so many treatments, over the years. That's how you know it's stood the test of time. Thanks, Dobson ( and Plant sit-in' in ) to give it it's due. People don't last forever, songs do.

Agreed!
What powerful emotionally charged vocal performance.
Great drumming for this amazing song ♥️
Yeah the drumming really captured the drama. The entire performance feels possessed. The song truly sends a shiver up my spine every time I hear it.
Written by Canadian folk singer Bonnie Dobson, not Tim Rose who for many years claimed writing credit.
I believe he also claimed to have written Hey Joe.
But Tim delivered the true desperate sadness
I loved Tim xxx beautiful to hear this song
just love this great classic , such power / depth in the vocals / music a awesome share !
I never heard this up till a few weeks ago. People seem to have strong feelings about this guy, that aside , this is a great sounding record.
Good arrangement for backthen..
He had a powerful and espressive soul singing voice
"for back then", For anytime, up to and including now. You don't hear anything even close to this on C.D. Analog compared to Digital. Even an occasional hiss or pop on an L.P. was o.k.
Only heard this for the first time 18 months ago, wow!
My ear pressed to our valve radio I heard this amazing music over half a century ago.

Thank you...henjoy!
Same here from this 63 year old former Deadhead. My buddy sent this to me today 9-13-24.
Brilliant memories. My brother in law and Sister were his friends!
awesome song by an awesome singer
Tim might not have wrote this song but he sure takes the credit for it like the back vocals
Yeah, that other one used to be at the correct speed for a while but then they must have replaced it. Many thanks for putting this up, total class.

Got the oringal bought it when it came out late 60s top tune 😊
Love this version.
Nazareth take this to the next level. .
As raw as the song. Brilliant.
*The best male Version of **_Morning Dew_** (and we leave aside that he only covered this Song from Bonnie Dobson^^)!* 😁👍
Until I found this I was most familiar with Rod Stewart / Jeff Beck version which I like a lot. (On the 1968 album Truth)
My single version is a bit slower I think...got to find it along with lots of others I have not seen for years.
thanks for uploading!
With one album Tim introduced to the pablum pop ot the time themes and passion of great opera.
Did some research. This was second version from the original. Personally imma go with Jeff Beck. Album "Truth" . Rod Stewart on vocals.
RIP Jeff Beck
Great voice.

U Don't know The *Grateful Dead version* (1st álbum)?
Rod Stewart covered it with Jeff Beck.
I just sang a good version in the shower
The one I grew up on
Still got the single of this fabulous song, must have worn it out by now…
Is that Bernard ‘Pretty’ Purdie on the drums? He played on Hey Joe I believe ✌️
This song is about the world's annihilation after nuclear war. Few know what it's really about.
actually I think most people know that
Inspired by a book called on the beach which was made into a film
If you lived through the nuclear fear of the sixties this means so much
Unfortunately I knew his talent only when he passed away
If I remember well,i listened first time that gorgeous musical piece when I was in a bus in england for a beautiful trip.....a disc-jokey remembered him
I'm your 200th subscriber yay
Bonnie Dobson song that Rose claimed authorship on for many contentious years.
yes ,wonderful
I like Episode Six version with Ian Gillan, but don't think you can beat the original by Bonnie Dobson

John Bonham played on this song originally. Don't know if that's him on this version
Buried in West Brompton Cemetery
Canadian Bonnie Dobson wrote & recorded this song.. Versions inc Robert Plant Rod Stewart Lulu Grateful Dead And many others.. and this one
Superb
Amazing song which never dates for me
Saw him in 'The Middle Earth' London (supporting act for Pink Floyd) singing this back in the 60's Knocked out by his raw live power & gutsy telecaster. Best version ever!

You kids didn't know - there were three Tims--- Rose, Hardin and Buckley.
Also three Steve's, Marriot, Ellis, and Winwood.
Dang! Sounds like he owns this song
He thought he did...though it was really Bonnie Dobson who wrote the song and first recorded it in 1962.
Only knew Lulu's version which gave me chickenskin.
Try the version by Blackfoot.
. .❤️
Thoroughly enjoyed this version by TR. Anyone know what the songs all about?
Not sure but when I first heard it in the 1960s *I* thought it was about the nuclear apocalypse.
@@surferpam1 "According to Dobson in a 1993 interview, "Morning Dew," written in 1962, was inspired by the film "On the Beach."
