“Well, I can sail a boat & fly a plane”...

 Dylan_1965You’ve known all about the July 25, 1965 concert when Dylan played electric guitar in public for the first time, singing Maggie’s Farm at the Newport Folk Festival, but have you actually heard it before? (From Hard travelin’). Photo here.

A year earlier, it was all Talkin' John Birch Paranoid Blues:

Well, I was feelin' sad and feelin' blue,
I didn't know what in the world I was gonna do,
Them Communists they wus comin' around,
They wus in the air,
They wus on the ground.
They wouldn't gimme no peace. . .

So I run down most hurriedly
And joined up with the John Birch Society,
I got me a secret membership card
And started off a-walkin' down the road.
Yee-hoo, I'm a real John Bircher now!
Look out you Commies!

Dylan lyrics in Hebrew ! (From ”YudelLine”, One Jew's News and Views)

One of my precious rare books is Dylan's Tarantula. It’s hard to find any of its surrealist, crazy text, 'album notes gone mad' on the net. Anybody know of a sample link to it?
