What's Bob Dylan doing today?


The Dylan - Rubin sessions docu is priceless.

R: Hey, soul mate!
B: It's Bob.
R: Hey, blood brother!
B: It's Bob.
R: Hey, Bob!

R: There will be only one Beatles cover on the album!
B: Beatles cover, huh?
R: Yeah, one that we can slow way down...
B: Slow it down...
R: One that really reflects where you're at...
B: I've always liked Ob-la-di Ob-la-da.

R: Now, Bob, about the backing band...
B: I need David Hidalgo on accordeon...
R: Yeah, but...
B: What?
R: Look, think about it, this may be something new to you...
B: What?
R: Just think about it...
B: Yeah...
R: What if I get a band in...
B: Like who...
R: It'll be new for you
B: Yeah?
R: What about Mudcrutch?

B: OK, let's start rolling. This is called Lakes of the Pontchartain.
R: Or...
B: Rick?
R: Trent sent me this demo of a sea shanty 'Give it away'. It's really where you're at now.
B: Where it's at?
R: That's another one!
B: ...
R: Two turntables and a microphone.

R: That sounds great, Bob...
B: Yeah?
R: Yeah, it sounds so, you know, alive...
B: That's good, right?
R: But, I mean, I think the listeners want to hear more from the Man in the Long Black Coat.
B: Yeah, I know him.
R: Yeah...
B: Well?
R: Biblical.

B: What about Black-Jack Davey?
R: What about Pokerface Davey?
B: What about him?
R: Think about it...

R: That's great, Bob, you wanna play the Viper Room tonight?
B: No.
