Actually by '69 country rock was a big movement. The Byrds and The Band (and Dylan) were at the forefront. But you also had the Flying Burrito Brothers and other smaller acts.
Some say The Band helped to usher in the more stripped down era. Bob was part of that whole thing too obviously. But yeah the peak of psychedelia was probably 67-68 but by 69 the mainstream had kinda ruined it
Country Dylan is a very underrated little period. His voice was really really something special during this era. John Wesley Harding, Nashville Skyline, Self Portrait and New Morning are all very cozy, very welcoming records
absolutely agree, Just as great the 65/66 period had been it was also manic, and thankfully he survived that insane time, it was inevitable he would become recluse after that but like you said that period has so many gems, New Morning is one of my favourite albums of all time.
Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash were busom buddies. I had a cigarette, then coffee with Johnny Cash at the concession in the Hollywood bowl October 1966 during Bobs concert. He was a flirt, between marriages at age 39. I was married, 17 with a five month old baby at her first concert. She grew up on Bob Dylan‘s music in our home. We are all like Rolling Stones!
Dylan wasn't doing any protesting in 1969, that was in his early career, in fact Dylan was trying to break away from the counter-culture at the time of this recording to be a family man in Woodstock and not the voice of a generation. That's why he turned down playing at the Woodstock concert.
It was extremely rare to see Dylan on tv in those early days. Of course, Johnny Cash (a true man of the people) recognized and respected his brilliance.
Interesting crossing of cultural wires here, as Dylan appeared on the Johnny Cash show multiple times in the 1969-73 period. Country music (which Dylan has worked in on and off) and counterculture. Very different audiences. Dylan and Cash bridged them. I'm sure Cash surprised some of his fans with this, as Dylan surprised his fans with Nashville Skyline. According to my dad, who worked in country and knew Cash professionally, Cash's only requirement was apparently that Dylan get a shave and a haircut :)
@@bostonseeker Bostonseeker, Excellent background story... If I remember correctly, clean clothes, a haircut, and a shave were huge sacrifices to make in those days. 😁 Cash and Dylan indeed, at first glance, seem to be culturally incompatible, but I suspect they were kindred spirits. Whatever.... they were great artists who had a profound affect on music and the culture. More than most.
@@paulgentile1024 Amen What happened to this world Its insane now. Is this what our fathers fought and died for? They would be sick seeing what we became
I love his voice during this period. Well I love all his voices because they’re distinct and soulful but I esp love this one. Here’s to a Long & healthy life Bob.
I think a lot of people miss out on the religious & spiritual dimensions of these songs when they interpret them at face value as only being about personal love. To me, this song is about the postmodern crisis of faith, and how people turn their backs on the church and the Holy Mother, without knowing what they had.
1969...three years dried out....intense drug use replaced by family, the Torah; the Bible, the wife and the brood.....a satisfied mind. Yet this phase to is just that; another phase. He would eventually return to imbibing. It's his life. Artists of his caliber tend to sacrifice in ways that they believe intensifies or gives new perspective to what they do. It's DAMNED HARD TO WRITE A SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!~E
There is nothing Cloudy about Bobs singing in Blood on the Tracks or countless others for that matter , in fact this live performance was a bit sketchy compared to the studio version !
I agree, however I prefer 60s & 70s Dylan when it comes to vocals - and his music in general. Though his voice nowadays is better than it was in the 80s and 90s. Especially on Rough & Rowdy
Thank you for naming the album. I've been a casual Dylan fan for a while, but always thought "Lay Lady Lay" had a particularly appealing sound. Now I think I know where that came from. 👍
@@brushstroke3733 yes I had only known the old folk songs so I put in Nashville skyline and didn’t know the first song was a duet with cash himself and I was floored. Cash and Bob’s duet was like discovering gold for me
I had to laugh when I read your comment about Dylan wearing many hats. I just watched an interview with Rita Coolidge talking about hanging with Dylan and his wife on the set of Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. She said Bob would take a prop hat home with him from the set every day. The next day, he would ask the costume crew for a new one. Rita and Bobs wife, Sarah, were hanging out one day, and Sarah showed Rita a room full of hats. Yeah, Bob has a thing for hats, she said.
@@YogsenForfoth As for songwriting, Dylan is right up there with the best. I would put Joni Mitchell, and Lennon and McCartney there with him. Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, Paul Simon, and John Prine a notch below. John Gorka is one of my personal favorites who is largely unknown outside folk circles.
Bob Dylan has written many great songs over the decades, and this is another one. This is a great live performance. These uploads bring so much happiness to people from around the world. May Johnny Cash rest in peace.
Look how freaking cute he is !!! Crazy to hear people say that he can't sing a lick!!!! But when you are a fan of this GENIUS all your life.... You will snap back and say " only because you ain't listening right" Love you Bob.. young... Middle.. and current!!! You broke the mold on any and every songwriter before you and after you!!!!!
I love his records but rarely enjoy the live versions. I am not happy about not enjoying them I wish I could but its the truth. Maybe one day ill develop an ear for it. It seems like a lot of people agree though.
Thanks for your nice comment on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via hangouts using my personal email that will be indicated below.

Love that Dylan and Cash were friends and worked together… my favorite is Wanted Man. Unfortunately, we’ll probably never see such collaborations again.
It's not silly, he is not a 'singer', nor a guitarist, he would likely not be famous if he wasn't such a damn fine writer... I'm pretty sure I heard him 'use' a different voice on a song once and it was actually quite good, it just that he chooses to use that nasal drawl to make him 'distinctive'..
@@JohnDavis-im1oy Some people like you are so simple minded that they just want cookie cutter studio voices. Pretty sad, really. Like the people that think only guitarists like Yngwie Johan Malmsteen are great. So called "technical proficiency"...
That stripped down back to basics thing he did with Skyline and JWH will always be my favorite iteration of Dylan’s career. This song is such an underrated gem.
The great legend Cash, king of country music introducing a genius songwriter and king of American folk music, Dylan... now that's a special moment in history.
I love this man. Could never live with him, would never want to. Can’t believe the depth of his gift. I’m 51. Known him since I was 13. Still can’t quite believe he’s real.
Loved that Bob and Johnny friendship that ran behind the scenes. Bob has done it all, showing us all these different sides. He does folk, hes the best, goes electric creates a new sound, he's the best, inspired (to name a few) the Beatles, the Byrds, Donovan, Joni Mitchell, Jimi, Niel Young, Lou Reed, Sinead O'Connor, Dire Straits, Tim Petty...his songs the soundtrack of the civil rights movement, even wrote exceptional and profound gospel music. He'll always be the crown jewel of modern music, ad songwriters. Great video
I wish I had heard this song when I was younger. My first girlfriend was the best; so beautiful and she actually cared about me. I didn't realize how rare that was. I'm sorry, Sarah.
This is a compact Country masterpiece, it says everything that needs to be said in a couple of minutes, with a superb unseen backing band in the background and some impeccable understated organ fills quietly sliding in towards the end to add even more depth and texture. Like it or hate it, Dylan has one of the most distinctive and expressive voices in music, and he is not overpowered even singing with Cash or the equally great Willie Nelson. Like them he respects the words of a lyric, their meaning, whether his own or someone else's, his phrasing and delivery are unique and his influence as a singer is hugely underrated. For example, I'm as great an admirer of Tom Petty as you will find and Petty's singing owes a huge amount to Dylan, which in no way diminishes Petty’s own brilliance.
A superb album. Bobs written songs for almost every genre of American folk music [ country/gospel/rock/folk/bluegrass/country rock/blues/jazz etc etc and pretty much ALL of them are utter gems
Who else is binge watching these fantastic Bob Dylan uploads on his 80th birthday, on May 24, 2021? Such timeless songwriting, from the greatest songwriter in the history of modern music. Cheers!
I once held her in my arms She said she would always stay But I was cruel I treated her like a fool I threw it all away Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand And rivers that ran through every day I must have been mad I never knew what I had Until I threw it all away Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round Love and only love, it can't be denied No matter what you think about it You just won't be able to do without it Take a tip from one who's tried So if you find someone that gives you all of her love Take it to your heart, don't let it stray For one thing that's certain You will surely be a-hurtin' If you throw it all away If you throw it all away
A timeless masterpiece. Alweer een sublieme Bob Dylan compositie... die door diverse anderen mooi & knap werden gezongen....met vaak een rijker en soms héél mooiklinkend arrangement... B D is een verdiende Nobelprijswinnaar van Literatuur... veel van zijn songs zijn gebalde romans... ongelooflijk knap... met hele knappe vondsten erin! Te bewonderen!!
Nashville Skyline was the first Dylan album I bought back in '69. I loved every cut in the album, and 'I threw It All Away' really touched me even as a snotty 15 year-old. Dylan's country period was filled with great songwriting, a more mature Dylan, to be sure, without the navel gazing and flippant lyrics of his early albums which were great in their own way.
It's interesting how young Dylan looks here. I always liked his "crooning" stage. Only lasted a couple of years and then he was on to even more awesomeness.
"Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round Love and only love, it can't be denied No matter what you think about it You just won't be able to do without it Take a tip from one who's tried"
Summer of '69 and everyone is in full blown hippie mode. Dylan "no thanks" and makes a country album.
Actually by '69 country rock was a big movement. The Byrds and The Band (and Dylan) were at the forefront. But you also had the Flying Burrito Brothers and other smaller acts.
He’s always been his own person for Sure. That’s Rare in this world.✌️
Why we love Dylan, always marching to the beat of his own drum.
Absolutely!!! What a time!!

The world will never be without Bob. You won't have a choice.

Don’t worry, you won’t

One of Dylan's greatest songs. You don't have to be obscure to be profound.
What an exellent determination
I think you meant to say, "You don't have to be well-known to be profound."
I think the OP might have been referring to the more direct lyrics used on Nashville Skyline than Dylan was previously known for using? Great clip!

But this also mean that a little of singing is acting that explains just how well an actor his good buddy Levon Helm was.
Nashville Skyline, such a magnificent album.
Yes
It's like Springsteen's Nebraska, people don't talk about it too often, but if you get into it, it becomes your favorite one.
That, and Self Portrait are my 2 favorite Dylan albums...
John Wesley Harding, Nashville Skyville and New Morning are a great thematic trilogy for Dylan. Totally underrated in his discography.

I just love love love love love me some Bob Dylan! It just makes me want to wish everybody a great morning!
Who else is binge watching these fantastic Bob Dylan uploads on his 80th birthday, on May 24, 2021? Such timeless songwriting, from the greatest songwriter in the history of modern music. Cheers!
Fantastic early Bob doing Johnny Cash style like no one else could do - their few early duets together were so memorable also!
He reminds me of Paul Newman , especially in this video. Bob sings this with passion and he sounds so sincere
I once held her in my arms
She said she would always stay
But I was cruel
I treated her like a fool
I threw it all away
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand
And rivers that ran through every day
I must have been mad
I never knew what I had
Until I threw it all away
Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round
Love and only love, it can't be denied
No matter what you think about it
You just won't be able to do without it
Take a tip from one who's tried
So if you find someone that gives you all of her love
Take it to your heart, don't let it stray
For one thing that's certain
You will surely be a-hurtin'
If you throw it all away
If you throw it all away
A timeless masterpiece. Alweer een sublieme Bob Dylan compositie... die door diverse anderen mooi & knap werden gezongen....met vaak een rijker en soms héél mooiklinkend arrangement... B D is een verdiende Nobelprijswinnaar van Literatuur... veel van zijn songs zijn gebalde romans... ongelooflijk knap... met hele knappe vondsten erin! Te bewonderen!!
Two absolute geniuses..... I saw one live (Dylan) and sadly not Johnny...but man is he in my musical heart.
HOW MANY OF US MAN OR WOMAN THREW IT ALL AWAY. NEVER KNEW WHAT I HAD . GOOD THAT GOD IS FORGIVING.
Throw away the CAPS please
Nashville Skyline was the first Dylan album I bought back in '69. I loved every cut in the album, and 'I threw It All Away' really touched me even as a snotty 15 year-old. Dylan's country period was filled with great songwriting, a more mature Dylan, to be sure, without the navel gazing and flippant lyrics of his early albums which were great in their own way.
Like millions of others I have loved this man my entire life
It's interesting how young Dylan looks here. I always liked his "crooning" stage. Only lasted a couple of years and then he was on to even more awesomeness.
Such a Classic Performance Bob.
How many of us can say this is as true as it gets.
Bob and his magnificent discomfort!
Fresh as a breath of spring
"Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round

Love makes the world go round. What an original thought.
