Bob Dylan: Monday YouTube Fix
Andrew Hitz
This week's clip is a song that is very special to me. You know, one of those songs that you hear for the first time and you then proceed to listen to it four more times in a row immediately afterwards.
This song is "Visions of Johanna" off of Bob Dylan's timeless album Blonde On Blonde. This song is just dripping with IT, that thing you can't ever put into words but that all musicians know about.
The style that Dylan both sings and plays with is just so genuine to me. It screams at me in a way that less than 1% of music does. There's just something about it. You might not like Bob Dylan, but you know exactly what I mean...
Enjoy!
And then a bonus version of him doing this same piece with just an acoustic guitar at the Royal Albert Hall:
