It is heartwarming and life-affirming to know that we live in the very time that Bob Dylan lives and that you Malcolm Guite live! Every day I feel, in this isolated little world, blessed by your enthusiasm for life‘s gifts of poetry, song and in my case painting.
I spent my teenage years in 60s entranced & revelling in Dylan’s music & verse and in a wonderful way the magic is still there undiminished now...when I’m old & worn. Happy 80th to the mercurial old boy indeed.
Greetings from a fellow Bobcat. So many great lyrics, such a cool cat. I feel fortunate to have come of age, digging his music. "The times they are a changing" always and ever.
I found an amazing artist while I was getting into Bob Dylan's music. His name is Dave Van Ronk. He's undoubtably famous but not nearly as much of a household name as Dylan. You should give him a listen when you can. Through Dave Van Ronk I found my way into what's now my favorite genre of music. I've heard it called "Outlaw Country". Blaze Foley was the first one I discovered, and his songs have influenced my guitar playing more than anyone. My absolute favorite is Townes Van Zandt. Give them all a listen if you find the time. You're my favorite person on the internet currently.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Simple Twist of Fate is one of my favorites to play/sing, and I always have to choose what version of lyrics to sing. Same thing with Tangled Up In Blue. Great job, Malcolm.
I am so fond of the "poem of your being", Malcolm, although I've never met you. I admire God's creativity and give thanks to Him for thinking you up (to hint at Lewis). I hope I am not too forward in my clumsy articulation. Greetings from Croatia!
Thank you for sharing, as a schoolboy aspiring to be a musician 'back in the Day' , Dylan was also prominent in my beginings, although for myself the song most noteable was 'All Along the Watchtower', . I hope the move goes smoothly as possible for you both {and the dogs , of course}. Steve.
i am a trained guitarist but cant sing well... I want to learn to get into poetry in order to put poem like spoken stories over my songs. Please continue the guitar videos and explanations and teachings on the songs of bob dylan. its helpful thanks
Thank you, Malcolm, for another enjoyable 'Spell.' Of all the tracks on 'Blood', that is a particular favourite of mine. However, I have always strongly disliked the way Bob's voice rises to the tonic octave on the 'fate/freight/wait' word (and shouts it!); thank you so much for not copying him!!
@@MalcolmGuitespell I know Hendrix was heavily influenced by Dylan and actually covered quite a few of his songs. But for me Hendrix was a poet as much as a six string savant. I'm sure you have heard it, but if not, you must listen to "Bold As Love (Just Ask The Axis)" check this out for a verse, Anger, he smiles, Towering in shiny metallic purple armor, Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him, Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted They quietly understand Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready But wonder why the fight is on Magical, eh?
What about van Morrison? In the Garden. No Guru, no method, no teacher Just you and I and nature And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost In the garden wet with rain No Guru, no method, no teacher Just you and I and nature and the holy ghost In the garden, in the garden, wet with rain
Thanks, very enjoyable. You have obviously read many books. It is puzzling to me that you would have read and collected so many Bob Dylan books and yet you claim to have never heard of "The Flashman Papers". Anyone who is interested in British history and hasn't read any of the Flashman series is doing themselves a serious disservice 🍻 Cheers
I do love you but your choice of music is, should we we say not to my likeing (I will spell it that way just to be sure there is no misunderstanding). Anyway enjoy your musical champions and I will certainly enjoy mine. I will also certainly enjoy seeing you again on youtub. Thank you.
This must be heartbreaking, like choosing which of your children to keep. 🥲 I picked up a copy of Tarantula at a market bookseller this year, it is so inaccessible, but feels like its clarity is just out of reach.

When you drop some skill points from your wizard build into bard.
More than a few.
Legit multiclass
gotta do it

I’m honoured

I was blessed to see Dylan live last year
Dear Sr. Malcolm Guite, this is the best video I've ever watched in youtube. And I've been here for quite a while!
Cheers
Greetings from a fellow Bobcat. So many great lyrics, such a cool cat. I feel fortunate to have come of age, digging his music. "The times they are a changing" always and ever.
My son's middle names are Dylan Thomas, an homage to both Bob Dylan and Dylan Thomas. Tangled Up In Blue was playing at the moment of his birth,.
Excellent. Thank you for your insight into the imagery of the those masterful lyrics.
A man of many talents.impressive indeed.

Glad you enjoyed it!
What a great way to finish off my day! Thanks again for these videos. Always appreciated. Enjoy when you bring out the guitar
Glad you enjoy it!
Hey Malcolm. I share birthdays with Dylan, except he’s ten years my senior. I feel a deep kinship with you and him. A reel yearning from within!
yes indeed, good to hear from my long lost Canadian brother!
I am so fond of the "poem of your being", Malcolm, although I've never met you. I admire God's creativity and give thanks to Him for thinking you up (to hint at Lewis). I hope I am not too forward in my clumsy articulation. Greetings from Croatia!
Thanks again for another satisfying video. I am very happy that I stumbled upon your channel.
Glad you enjoy it!
that was amazing! thank you
Man i would love some of those books
Excellent Classic Bob
Thank you for sharing your lovely considerations; much like visiting with a good friend.
Thanks for visiting

thanks!
The bit I always identified with most in this song is when he tries to kid himself he doesn't care, but he's not fooling anyone.
Guitar, brilliant…
Malcom thanks for the Dylan songs 😂
I play guitar every day for at least an hour!
Malcolm Guite, how many hours per day do you work? What is your daily working routine like?
I dont keep track of them but for me work and play are really the same thing!
I’ve been playing guitar for a living for over 40 years. This man isn’t lazy or inexperienced. He’s drunk.
Love Dylan,have you seen Loudon wainwright?
i am a trained guitarist but cant sing well... I want to learn to get into poetry in order to put poem like spoken stories over my songs. Please continue the guitar videos and explanations and teachings on the songs of bob dylan. its helpful thanks
where can I get the pair of glasses you wear?
they are reading glasses from my local discount store!
interesting lol
Remember one folk song only heard it once. Did you come to watch me hang. Can't remember the artist. Its some years since I heard it
Thank you, Malcolm, for another enjoyable 'Spell.' Of all the tracks on 'Blood', that is a particular favourite of mine. However, I have always strongly disliked the way Bob's voice rises to the tonic octave on the 'fate/freight/wait' word (and shouts it!); thank you so much for not copying him!!
yes, he corrects that in some of the live performances!
Very cool chat. Any idea what the value of that guitar is ? Vintage Gibson acoustic ... 💰💰 💰
its only about twenty five years old. If it was one from the forties it would be worth a fortune!

Anger, he smiles,
Towering in shiny metallic purple armor,
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him,
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted
They quietly understand
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready
But wonder why the fight is on
Magical, eh?
What about van Morrison?
In the Garden.
No Guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father and the
Son and the Holy Ghost
In the garden wet with rain
No Guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature and the holy ghost
In the garden, in the garden, wet with rain
I love that song!

Wondering how we would have gotten thru with out Bob D. ?

yes, its a strange, teasing book which I've never managed to finish. I really enjoyed Chronicle though.
