- While I'm working on my Niagara Falls audience tape upload, I thought you might like to see this interesting footage of Bob having fun with one of his old standards, accompanied by Rolling Thunder Revue bassist, Rob Stoner. Bob's looking like he experienced catharsis at the end, as always.
Peace & Love,
~SP
His voice was never the same after that.
I would suggest that before condemning or criticizing Bob that you "walk a mile in his shoes".He is very compassionate and accepting of the big picture which is essentially a group of musicians letting loose and having fun. Bob does not have to say anything, he does everything subtly with expression and gestures.That is the genius of rock royalty.
Dylan coming off the coke right at the end there lol
bob just achieving post-nut clarity at the end there
HAHAHAHAHA
Best thing I’ve read all day, possibly my life 🤣🤣🤣
Rob sounds like Mick Jagger
Best days of Dylan were those ones with Rob Stoner.
I think they were happy together so you can see Dylan's bes performances during that period 75-78 ish.
IMHO
I love finding new colour tv footage of Bob. You can't take ur eyes off him.
Cinematic, I think the word is.even if hes just standing in the background. Thank u so much SPxx
I love this ❤️ It sounds so free and wild.
Yes, bravo Bobby and Stoner too
Really interesting...leaves room for interpretation...
I would love to hear this version in full
Legendary
Love your profile pic
It strikes me as a being a nod towards The Animals' version. Eric Burdon did a brilliant prog for BBC Radio 4 about House of the Rising Sun some years back and he said that Dylan told him: "That song has a thousand faces..." Burdon also tells the story of speaking to guy back in the 70's who had been in special forces in Vietnam. It was New Year's Eve 1968 and they were chasing Charlie up country. A chopper dropped off supplies including a 6-string. They were all having a fireside sing-a-long that night belting out House of the Rising Sun when from the next hillside comes the Viet Cong singing along with them - spooky or what? P.S. Got any Tarantula stuff PG? It's a speciality of mine. I did the introduction to the Chinese edition published in September 2020 amongst other stuff. Best Regards, Robin Witting, England
@Randy Boer Good Morning, Randy,
Thank you. I am constantly vacuuming things up. You could sat that I have a head full of ideas driving me insane... Talk with melody, Robin Witting
It strikes me as a nod toward Waylon Jennings' version, especially the last verse. ruclips.net/video/Fk6FrXCisOk/видео.html
You may be Swingin’ 🌹 but this was Screamin’ and Swingin’ a ‘Golden Classic’ never done like this before but had to❣️👌
With Rob Stoner🌹Thanks Dylan🌺❤️🌹🌞👌
Bob looks great no matter what. Damn. 😎
I'm guessing this is from some Rolling Thinder collection extras. ?
Dylan thinking, please can I crawl out you're window,
Agreed, SP, It's a look I've seen before, once or twice! hah! No matter what else is, was, or whatever may or may not have been going on at the time, this is a fabulous look at these two doing what they did. Having heard Bob say he doesn't even remember RTR and what it was all about, that isn't hard to believe! Love the clip SP, many thanks as always, and Be Well
@Debby Ledbetter Bob remembers RTR, he was merely saying it was so long ago that it’s lost any significance overall in his life. ❤️🙏❤️
@@marynelson3067 Oh yeah, I get that...just his own meaning behind the remarks is what I was referring to! Thanks for your comment Mary :) I really wanted to be at any of those shows then....love the more personal venues. Even better than a Supper Club show! Well, maybe today a Supper Club! lol
@Debbie Ledbetter I was at “Hard Rain”, the May 23, 1976 Fort Collins, Colorado show, part of the RTR tour. I was about three feet from the stage. ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️
what a legend
Wondering if it was a warm up for the show...
With his style at the time, looks like a suitably shamanic way of freeing the spirits and loosening the tonsils...😊
Believe the song was written /350 years ago .was originally about a brothel in Japan somewhere.
New Orleans, Japan
Let's have ourselves unknowingly filmed when we're having fun (whether or not on substance) and then have the world comment how cringy we are.
😀 I love that song
yayo all dayo
Dont really know what to say about this one are you sure it wasn't a Saturday night after a few
Haha it could very well have been
I'm pretty sure his alcoholism is the least of our worries 😬
@@jackwhite8020 who's worried wasn't saying he was an alcolic thats you don't put words in my mouth
so cool...
so good! thanks for sharing!
Is this from renaldo and clara? Quality looks good.
Bob doesn't give the impression that he's having fun, he looks more like he's ashamed
Having Rob staring at you like that would be unpleasant I reckon
@@afdgh123 no, nothing against the obvious desire, it is understandable, but Bob's reaction looks like a distance
you know he's not allowed to smile on camera
@@Jerry11201 that's the solution
@@afdgh123 I think it'd be lovely.
Nuts!
Camera should have been filming Bob's face... close-up !!
Right? Not other weird guy who kinda looks like the guy from who’s the boss.
@@anewbugmusic, Who's the Boss? He kinda reminds me of Screech from
Saved by the Bell.
He's Robert David Rothstein aka Rob Stoner.
BTW, Screech recently passed away, allegedly from lung cancer and.
I think this period was Bob's most photogenic period, I liked his RTR look & performances.
💎
I like this song cause it's one of the few songs I know how to play on piano.
cool man
shouldn't it be the other way around?
Hopefully we can help change that heartbreak at the end? Ta for the history lesson SP ☕🌈🤞🌈
Bob looks weird at the end, like he's pissed about something. And he did some kind really subtle wink-nod at the camera.
Guess he was tired of being adored by that other guy.
@@bertilknudsen
Could be. Maybe that other guy wrecked it, especially with that trill at the end. 'You don't trill anger, dummy.' That look at the end by Bob might be embarrassment.
@@bertilknudsen
I watched this again, about 5 times now. Bob doesn't look happy, that is for sure. Maybe Bob wanted the song to be less screaming, but that guy turned it into the mess we saw.
I'm not the type of person who thinks everything is art. I'm not thinking, 'Thank you Swinging Pig for bringing us this historical treasure'. I'm thinking this clip is dog shit. The only interesting thing about it is the mystery of that look Bob gave us. Bob knows this was dog shit.
OK, 'that guy' has a name, Rob Stoner, the bassist for the tour. So he isn't some bum wandered backstage to cop a feel. And he sang with Bob on stage throughout the tour. I have some kind of bootleg DVD of this tour that I bought from a street vendor in the East Village. I watched it a few times. I'm a big Dylan fan, but I don't everything about him like who he played with and stuff. And that 'Last Waltz' movie, I can't stand it and Robbie Robertson makes sick he looks like such a pimp. so not knowing who 'that guy' was, I was thinking Bob's expression might have been, 'Who the fuck is this guy, and why is he in my face?'
I have to watch again, armed with new knowledge.
I can't figure it out. Bob looks like he just got a bad telegram. I know who knows what is going on here. Swinging Pig knows. He's one of those super fans that knows more about Bob than Bob knows about himself. Pig knows, but he ain't telling. Pig says Bob experienced 'catharsis'. I had to look that up...
'Catharsis... the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions.'
Looks to me more like he's locking an emotion up tighter.
This clip is trash. Cameras stalking them everywhere, hoping to catch magic at any/every moment. Like I said, not everything is art. I bet Bob knew this was dog shit and was thinking 'enough for one day. I'm calling it quits before I do something really embarrassing'. That was gross. Yelling the song like they are a bunch of Yoko Onos.
Thanks for the conversation piece Senor Pig.
@@nelsonx5326 I agree this is trash, but hey, I can think of worse. Also you can't expect Dylan to control all kinds of stuff being made and released. Being that Stoner guy, though, I wouldn't be too proud.
いや、これ普通にライブでやって欲しかったなぁ。
And the cocaine it did flow...
Would make Yoko proud
👍👍👍👍👍
Cocaine runnin round my brain
Warming up or warming down?
Why two vocal leads?
Poor Bob, he looks so sad at the end😂, don't know why though.
It’s slow motion at the end. He wasn’t sad. ❤️🔥❤️
He had to keep screaming or else be drowned out. He called the '74 tour with the Band the Screaming Tour. My impression watching him on that tour was that he didn't need to scream in order to be powerful. Just listen to all his albums up to that point. Hell,, he didn't even need to go electric, but that's OK, too. LARS is still the apex, GOAT.
... go tell my baby sister ...
Dear Mr Pig,Bob never ever plays it saf.Both vocally & lyrically..Who else would have looked beyond the obvious in Only a Pawn in Their Game ?In ancient times a warrig tribe would bite themselves to help them go berserk.A little bit like Robert....or am I reading to much into it ?If you see Bob tell him thanks a lot....& thanks to you Lord Pig of Bobness
I think a large percentage of the output of this whole era and it's "style" and "energy" can be directly attributed to cocaine. Not trying to cause an argument...just putting it out there because to me it's fairly obvious and the drug was a major influence on a lot the music in this era. not saying good or bad - just commenting.
100% Agree. The enthusiasm & sense of mission brought on by even a little of that stuff is absolutely unmistakeable.
@@justliketomthumb427 That describes it perfectly. Jesus they must have had a lot, It wears off.
Have you ever come across any evidence, other than the "style" and "energy" of this era, that Dylan used coke? I have never done the drug, and never really been around users/addicts that I know of, so I am no authority, but Dylan does not seem to have the negative signs of addiction that you can see so clearly in some from that period, for instance David Bowie. Are there stories that float around about Dylan and coke? I haven't heard them.
@@briteness I have no direct experience w coke either (well, except for that one bachelor party-in-the-woods -gone-wild-turned-ugly-real-quick but that’s for another post) and no, actual evidence & haven’t really looked into it to be honest. But I think the proof is in the pudding with this whole tour and Hard Rain Live album and well, Before The Flood and Desire maybe .. but anyway, just find it intriguing - the role weed and coke or booze or just drugs in general have played such a vital role over decades, if not since the dawn of time, throughout the creative artosphere. That’s all ;)
If you check the booklet that comes along with the Rolling Thunder Review edition of The Bootleg Series (Vol. 5, I believe, if my mem'ry serves me well), there is a photo of Dylan sleeping on a couch backstage somewhere with a big ol' bag of it laying on the table next to him, which at the very least, puts him in the same room as it. There are inferences made in Ratso Sloman's book about the tour ('On The Road With Bob Dylan'), and there is also mention of it being used by basically the entire travelling party in the wonderful little book called 'A Rough Guide To Bob Dylan' (under the 'Dylan & Drugs' section).
Hmmmm....interesting clip 🤔
🙂
Why in Gods name would Utube send me a notice to see this
Maybe Stoner had bad breath?
Rip animals lead guitarist
It’s a bit funny for me, looks like they are hanging around but then Bob gets existential crisis cause Rob sounds better then him
Not a patch on Leadbelly.
That guy singing AT Dylan the whole time, every word, that must have been weird. Dylan just looks like Get Me Outta Here at the end.
@not2tees “That guy” is Rob Stoner. They were just having fun backstage between shows.Rob was the band leader on the entire Rolling Thunder tour. He played bass. He is very active on Facebook.
lol Bob looks fully cringed out as he turns away and Rob just stares him down.... yikes. congrats on being "very active on facebook" I'll definitely remember you for giving Dylan post-cut clarity.
yow.
Don't want to see Bob like this 🤔
@David Pearn Bob and Rob Stoner were just having fun backstage between shows. ❤️🙏❤️
like what? having fun?
WTF
This is very stressful to watch in the COVID era.
Lil' Much...
Wish it was only Bob singing for this one.
These kids today....can't unnerstand a single word.
😏
@Stephen Stone
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And man I know I’m one ❤️❤️❤️
@@marynelson3067 lol. Incorrect! ....many a poor GIRL.
see original.
But i sense you know that already. 😉
@Stephen Stone Yes! But Eric Burdon and Bob change the gender reference
@@marynelson3067 ah, the great Eric Burdon.....
No words for that genius.
@@StephenS-2024 there is no record of an original writer
No offence. But that guy has a face you just... kinda want to slap
Possibly the worst rendition of the song I have ever heard ( and I'm a massive Dylan fan
Sounds like a dog pound
This is awful. As a dylan fan I can say i always try to like everything but man this is just awful
Fuck u
@@nutbuster4209 fuck you too. Also cool name -nut buster 420 lol
@@JLKDOOM u may not enjoy their singing however you have to appreciate the video for what it is, Bob Dylan and some guy in the 1970’s (probably after a few whiskeys or joints) screaming house of the rising sun while staring at each other.
@@nutbuster4209 yea I mean I get it. It's a cool video and to be honest I've never seen it before
@@JLKDOOM if this was a song, I’d listen to it. What’s ur favourite dylan album tho
Crap!
The worst perfomance of Bob Dylan I've ever heard and seen
