  1. Another Side of Bob Dylan

    #bobdylan #dylan #orpheus #60smusic #folk #folkrock #anothersideofbobdylan #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky August 8, 1964 ~ Orpheus releases his fourth album. It's different from his previous albums which didn't sit well with some of the tight-asses in the folky community. There weren't any "protest" songs ... but some inward, personal and surreal lyrics .. set Dylan up nicely for what was to follow.

  5.  If not for you
     Winter would have no spring
     Couldn’t hear the robin sing
     I just wouldn’t have a clue
     Anyway it wouldn’t ring true

     But build to destroy
     You play with my world

     And you turn and run farther

  23. Mood. #Dylan, Hurricane.

    How can the life of such a man
    Be in the palm of some fool's hand?
    To see him obviously framed
    Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed
    To live in a land where justice is a game
    Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
    Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
    While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
    An innocent man in a living hell

  45. When the ship comes in

    Oh, the time will come up
    When the winds will stop
    And the breeze will cease to be breathin'
    Like the stillness in the wind
    Before the hurricane begins
    The hour that the ship comes in
    And the seas will split
    And the ship will hit
    And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking
    Then the tide will sound
    And the wind will pound
    And the morning will be breaking
    Oh, the fishes will laugh
    As they swim out of the path
    And the seagulls they'll be smiling
    And the rocks on the sand
    Will proudly stand
    The hour that the ship comes in
    And the words that are used
    For to get the ship confused
    Will not be understood as they're spoken
    For the chains of the sea
    Will have busted in the night
    And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean
    A song will lift
    As the mainsail shifts
    And the boat drifts on to the shoreline
    And the sun will respect
    Every face on the deck
    The hour that the ship comes in
    Then the sands will roll
    Out a carpet of gold
    For your weary toes to be a-touchin'
    And the ship's wise men
    Will remind you once again
    That the whole wide world is watchin'
    Oh, the foes will rise
    With the sleep still in their eyes
    And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'
    But they'll pinch themselves and squeal
    And know that it's for real
    The hour when the ship comes in
    Then they'll raise their hands
    Sayin' we'll meet all your demands
    But we'll shout from the bow your days are numbered
    And like Pharaoh's tribe
    They'll be drownded in the tide
    And like Goliath, they'll be conquered
