[THE SCENE: WOODSTOCK, NEW YORK - BIG PINK - 1968 - BOB DYLAN
RECOVERS FROM HIS MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT BY PLAYING NEW SONGS AND OLD FOLK
MUSIC WITH RICK DANKO, GARTH HUDSON, AND OTHER MEMBERS OF "THE HAWKS", SOON
TO BE KNOWN TO THE WORLD AS "THE BAND FROM BIG PINK", WHOSE ALBUM "MUSIC
FROM BIG PINK", PROVED TO BE A HIGHLY INFLUENTIAL MOVEMENT AWAY FROM THE
HIGH COST STUDIO ANTICS BEST TYPIFIED BY "THE BEATLES" WORLD FAMOUS ALBUM,
COMMONLY KNOWN AS "SGT. PEPPER", THIS MUSICAL STYLE CAN ALSO BE SEEN IN
DYLAN'S OWN "JOHN WESLEY HARDING" WHICH AT THE TIME OF RELEASE WAS
CONSIDERED A RESPONSE TO "THE BEATLES" AND ALSO RECEIVED LUKEWARM REVIEWS,
COMING AS IT DID, IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SHOCKING CLASSIC ALBUM "BLONDE ON
BLONDE", WHICH UNLIKE THE QUIET OLD TESTAMENT MEDITATION OF "JOHN WESLEY
HARDING" CONTAINED A SOUND WHICH DYLAN WOULD LATER CALL "THIN WILD MERCURY"
AND WAS RIFE WITH OUTRE LYRICS AND MUSICAL STYLES.]
(Bob Dylan & The Band play "Odds and Ends", while Sarah Dylan floats
by and spills juice all over them. The members of the Band look at her with
aching lust, remembering her days as a Playboy model, and Bob Dylan can't
help wondering if perhaps she slept with ol' Hugh Hefner, at the Playboy
Mansion, where it is rumored that Dylan initially met Sarah. As with all
such manly woolgathering, he can not help but also compare his treatment
with the theoretical [and unknown] treatment of Heffy. Did ever juice
splatter those famous smoking jackets? But Dylan then remembers the tragic
loss of Playboy cartoonist and creator of the character "Plastic-man", Jack
Cole, who Heff looked with great admiration, and who did end his own life,
presumably due to marital troubles with his wife, but the coroner, out of
good taste, never inquired, and the world would never know. So, remembering
his days as Robert Allen Zimmerman, and all those sorrowful nights reading
"The Torah", Bbo Dylan decides against this logic, and goes back to
playing.)
IM2K: OUCH. I AM DEAD.
