Evan Marshall's written statement concerning "Troubled And I Don't Why" in the February 2008 edition of RECORD COLLECTOR
PGPear...@aol.com
- for the Feb 08 issue of RECORD COLLECTOR (UK).
On page 26, Marshall writes about the '63 Dylan/Baez duet "Troubled
And I Don't Know Why", "Fairly disposable stuff, but highly likeable,
and they would still be performing duets on this number a decade
later, during the Rolling Thunder Revue tour."
WHAT???????????
As far as I know, Dylan/Baez coupled on this song several times during
the '60s. The only versions I've ever heard was the '63 Forest Hills
duet and a Baez solo from a PBS concert from Scotland several decades
ago.
I don't remember Dylan-Baez doing this song during RTR.
Anybody?

1st, the duet version you've heard is probably the one available on
Joan's "Rare, Live & Classic", Disc One from 17feb63. Of which she
writes in the booklet:

The first time we sang this song was at Gerde's Folk City. I don't
remember if it was Bob's set or mine, but we ended up on stage
together and he said, "Let's sing 'Troubled and I Don't Know Why'." I
never heard it before! But it was one of those ditties that you just
do. He would sing the verses and then I would come in on the chorus.
By the time this version was recorded, I was well acquainted with it.

She does not mention RTR, nor the derivation of the song, nor my
alternate additional lyrics.
That said, anyone who can identify correctly the source material for
"TaIDKY" is awarded 1500 bonus points (US, Canadian or Euro).
That furthur said, as to firing yr typist, it's really yr grammarian
needs the boot. In any event, be careful: Is (s)he Documented? Have
you been withholding the appropriate taxes? ElseWise, there's a
lawsuit waiting to happen...
Take a tip from one who's tried.
Ever,

Yes, sloppy journalism - cos also, the way it's written it sounds like
they'd been doing it off and on throughout the intervening years as
well!

Happy Belated Lunar New Year.

Watson among others.

commercially available stuff.
That said, 'k Round 2: If the Anglin Bros. recorded "WDtDSS", what

For 1500 bonus points (good only in Contra Costa County & laminated).
Sheesh.

There's a reason this one is rare. One of the most pedestrian
and forgettable Dylan songs ever. Too bad as I was really
excited about the title before I heard the song. I don't think
it was done on RTR but I could be wrong. The version I heard
was Dylan and Baez doing it from early in the 60's.
