Incredible ... His speaking voice sounds like it could be from his interviews in the early sixties ... Yet, consider the various vocal styles we hear on the albums he recorded between then and here, 1978 - including "Street Legal" ... His singing abilities are just amazing
I was thinking the same exact thing. His singing voice changed countless times up until 78' yet his speaking voice remained identical. I wonder if in 78 if he could sing like "👱♀️ ON 👱♀️" if he wanted to..🤔
That photo accompanying this interview is actually from Western Springs Stadium, Auckland, New Zealand. A huge fan at 21, I was standing outside the gate listening to Bob and his band rehearsing for the evening show. They played mostly instrumental things that sounded a bit like the track Boogie Woogie from Self Portrait. The show later that night was a complete knockout! I'd never seen or heard anything like it before or since. The Live at Budokan album, recorded just days before, barely manages to capture the sheer excitement of seeing this band live in performance.
Thanks nightly for those 3 interviews.. The 1 he’s meanwhile drawing the interviewer ‘86, I saw with life video, amazing Dylan could do that; Multitasker, Multitalent🌺🌹❣️Thanks Mark Rowland too🌹Last not Least Dylan🌺🌹🌞🌷❤️👌
I really love the way the interviewer asks so many stimulating and intelligent questions...so out of the norm. He reeled out Bob a bit where to he got deeper..loving this.
Great stuff, love listening to these....especially with respect to the time/year they were recorded. Always wondered about the motorcycle crash...this is as much as I've ever heard him talk about it.
What talent Dylan was. Very handsome and sexy man. There's just something sex about Dylan and the whole package of Dylan is wonderful. I didn't grow up with Dylan but it would of been awesome. I'm enjoying him now. I heard he was awesome in those days. God Bless Dylan.
From Bob's "Sixteen Years" song off the Street Legal LP: "Fortune calls, I stepped forth from the shadows to the marketplace, Merchants and thieves, hungry for power, my last deal gone down . . . ". Oh Hell, music really just don't get better. Keep dealing it to us, Bobby!
Have you heard the "Rome Press Conference 2001"? The journalists asked questions about music, traveling.. not silly personal questions. It's easy to find on Utube. You've probably heard the infamous "1965 San Francisco Press Conference" from "The Song & Dance Man" 😎
he really gave some honest, no bullshit interviews in the 80s. Here in 78 he's rather chipper and straight forward. He will talk if you ask the right questions in the same way,,,,,,,Mostly, kHe didn't really have anything to say but he talked anyway.....very revealing....to just come clean and not being cryptic......but I feel so these artists - especially the struggling ones -- who give the same interview on radio stations across the country when they pull into town. KEXP even gives them a chance to play -- sometimes, the younger bands look so worn out -- they got a show that night been driving all night. Heavy touring sounds romantic and glamorous --but it's hard work and will drain you dry if you turn to hard drugs to get through it. Off topic. Sorry. I've just seen 40 years of this go by in a flash -- and nothing has changed with the delusions of grandeur many young band falls into -- it's a young man's game, but these days A LOT of elderly stars are playing it -- it all comes down to pacing youself-- and stay from strange pills and powders.....I loved Rolling Thunder. I went to the 78 show -- It was totally different -- on purpose. Seemed like he was doing a Vegas act. I got bored and left early......but by most account it was a good tour--but how do you top Rolling Thunder? JMHO> thanks.

He gave a great but strange interview with MTV's Martha Quinn from early 80s. As they prepared to tape the interview, he and Martha were engaged in all kind of lively friendly banter, it wasn't even an interview yet, though it went on for about half hour. He was friendly and talking about everything but music. Then it was time for the "interview," -- they put eyeliner on him -- like he's never done that -- but they didn't even ask......they just did it --- he didn't like, but didn't say anything. This is doing PRESS. The Interview itself actually sucked. Funny, how he talked so openly before the cameras came on --- then he had to put on his Bob Dylan persona. He became the elusive and vague . He likes to talk and chat.....but we know how he feels about interviews....even ones with the harmless Martha Quinn. JMHO --thanks!
Critics were Bob's enemy - if they made him "famous", it was against their will. Let's borrow from Zimmy now: "Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy." (I guess it was up to me.)

Thanks. Great interview. Very open.
" the interviews with Dylan are a rare commodity" good job kido....oh man...thank you for adding one for us on down the line!!!!!!!!!!!

So great. You did a great job and got more out of him than anyone.
I really love the way the interviewer asks so many stimulating and intelligent questions...so out of the norm. He reeled out Bob a bit where to he got deeper..loving this.
Thanks that was insightful! Great interview…..He’s still a mystery though. Hey Bob keep it that way.🏴🇬🇧
Great stuff, love listening to these....especially with respect to the time/year they were recorded. Always wondered about the motorcycle crash...this is as much as I've ever heard him talk about it.
thanks much for sharing such a rare interview.
happy holidays everyone and stay well.

YES, but more accurately "What a talent Dylan is".
From Bob's "Sixteen Years" song off the Street Legal LP:
"Fortune calls, I stepped forth from the shadows to the marketplace,
Merchants and thieves, hungry for power, my last deal gone down . . . ".
Oh Hell, music really just don't get better. Keep dealing it to us, Bobby!
A great interview. Finally a real conversation instead of Dylan dodging banal and benign stock questions.

Hopefully A.I. will eventually clean-up the sound quality these interviews

Yeah that was one of the good ones
Rare
He rags on critics, but critics made him famous. Bob, Bob, Bob.
He wasn't in it for the fame. "It happened like anything else happens"
Critics were Bob's enemy - if they made him "famous", it was against their will. Let's borrow from Zimmy now: "Now somebody's got to show their hand, time is an enemy." (I guess it was up to me.)

That is absurd ! The most talented songwriter to ever live is not in need of the critics.
@@DylanMyth5728 Alas, critics are disseminators of information. Rolling Stone, among others, was how we heard about music.
I think I hate this interview more than he djust.Give me the music man
