 Step right into the burning hell
 Where some of the best known enemies of mankind dwell
 Mister Freud with his dreams and Mister Marx with his axe
 See the raw hide lash rip the skin off their backs

 And I’m gonna let you pass
 Yes, and I’ll go last
 Then time will tell just who fell
 And who’s been left behind
 When you go your way and I go mine

 There’s smoke on the water, it’s been there since June
 Tree trunks uprooted, 'neath the high crescent moon
 Feel the pulse and vibration and the rumbling force
 Somebody is out there beating a dead horse

Today’s listening is ‘Before The Flood’, the 1974 album by Bob Dylan and The Band.

This double live album is taken from the 1974 tour undertaken by Bob and the boys and, judging from the front cover, it must have been a health and safety officer’s nightmare.

The Band sound terrific on this album, though Bob comes across as a little ‘shouty’.

The highlight for me is when some random noodling suddenly resolves itself into a fantastic version of ‘Like A Rolling Stone’.

 I can’t understand
 She let go of my hand
 An’ left me here facing the wall
 I’d sure like t’ know
 Why she did go
 But I can’t get close t’ her at all
 Though we kissed through the wild blazing nighttime

 May you grow up to be righteous
 May you grow up to be true
 May you always know the truth
 And see the lights surrounding you
 May you always be courageous
 Stand upright and be strong

 Got to hurry on back to my hotel room
 Where I’ve got me a date with Botticelli’s niece
 She promised that she’d be right there with me
 When I paint my masterpiece
