Possibly because most of the Infidels album was recorded in New York City, in the springtime. Or maybe Dylan is a big fan of Jonathan Richman, whom he once compared, on his radio show, to Bertolt Brecht :

"When I think of songwriters I don't really think of myself. I think of other people. I know I'm doing it, too. But it gives me more of a kick to see somebody else do it. I *need* to do it. Like that Jonathan Richman. I get a kick out of that. I'd rather listen to that. Whereas my stuff, I need to do it, I have to do it, I'm inside it all the time. So I've got a get *out* of it. When I hear my old stuff I just think of how badly it was recorded."

[Pamela Brown]

Interesting. Bertolt Brecht connection -- I took a class with Prof. Robert Corrigan at NYU grad school and he suggested that we go to the off-off-off Broadway Martinique Theater to see Baal. Tiny stage, wooden rises for seats. There was relatively unknown James Earl Jones, in a loincloth. So close, at one point he spat on me. Incredible...

May prove to be an unfortunate title...

[Will Dockery]

This will be a great one, although Outfidels bootleg covers a lot of this.

Nice video of Bob in studio with Mark Knopfler and Mick Taylor adding tasty licks:

I think this is part of the new bootleg.

[Rachel]

i wish i could have been there.....to help him fix it, tell him the parts that are wrong, and what's right, and help him improve it. then for him to practice it correctly, and get it perfect.

[Rachel]

too late now, he can't sing anymore.

oh well.

[Will Dockery]

I saw the Letterman clips also, that was a thrilling night.
